Need For Speed: Carbon
on Xbox 360
Certificate: 
This has to be the most disappointing and boring driving game I have played. Gameplay wasn't that original and didn't offer anything to keep me interested enough to continue playing after just a few hours when I'd taken over the first bosses territory. Normally I would play a game for a little longer to give it a chance but I found this game so tedious that I just couldn't be bothered. To be honest I'm not sure what this game is trying to be - driving games should either offer realistic handling or be a fun driving experience - this didn't feel like either. The cars were far too easy to drive and handle and the races didn't offer any challenge and very quickly started to feel somewhat repititous. If you are a fan of driving games then you are much better off with Burnout Paradise and PGR4. Last point I'll make is on the graphics - I wasn't overly impressed with them and they certainly aren't as good as Burnout Paradise or PGR4, and yet this game does suffer quite a bit at various points in races with a noticable drop in frame rate and felt somewhat laggy. I'm certainly glad I didn't purchase this game.
