 "NFS Carbon Demo Out Now")
EA has released a moderately sized demo (640 MB) of their upcoming racer, Need for Speed Carbon that’s up for grabs at our downloads section. This single player demo includes a Circuit track, a Drift track and three car models. Unfortunately the demo hasn’t opened to very positive reactions, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed for the full version. Here’s a slight backdrop on the game:
_What starts in the city is settled in the canyons as Need for Speed Carbon immerses you into the world’s most dangerous and adrenaline-filled form of street racing. You and your crew must race in an all-out war for the city, risking everything to take over your rivals’ neighborhoods one block at a time. As the police turn up the heat, the battle ultimately shifts to Carbon Canyon, where territories and reputations can be lost on every perilous curve.

Need for Speed Carbon releases on nearly every platform on November 1.
Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
