Need for Speed Carbon demo!

[manifesto]

As expected, Electronic Arts has now released a playable demo for Need for Speed Carbon, offering the first opportunity to take this imminent arcade racing simulation sequel by EA Black Box for a spin. This demo contains a familiar introduction movie, a Circuit track and a Drift track, both of which must be won to unlock the Canyon Duel against Kenji, all playable in three car models that can also be modified using the Autosculpt feature.

[Ryne]

Thanks xeed.

Gotta demo it before I buy it. I want this game, because I really did like NFS:MW. Hopefully it has some sort of story.

I'm getting 485kb/sec on a 4mb connection from the UK gamershell server. Have you tried that one?

[MiG-]

getting 380kb/s - 400kb/s on the Fuller of the 2 UK servers on gamershell.. the first one seemed to go at 3.0kb/s, and was getting 16kb/s on the EA FTP..

hmmm.. I'm getting 0.1kb/s :| and I'm on a T1 connection I believe.

The server was literally at 2% usage when I started, it's at 87% now so maybe that's why. My speed isn't constant now, but usually 350kb/sec or higher.

Fileplanet also has the demo on there website

I see EU tacked on at the end of the file name. I'm guessing this just means English language.

I pre-ordered the game this week, and it's coming out in just a few days, and I'll be pretty busy in the meantime, so I don't know if it's going to be worth downloading the demo now seeing that I'll be getting the game in less than a week! Too bad EA took FOREVER getting this out! Some of the consoles had the demo for this game out like a friggin month ago!

If anyone has the X360 Demo, I'd like a comparison. Because the X360 Version sucked badly!

Worst NFS so far.

"Not so much?" They took the arcade game of the year and added a slice of ARCADE!

The balance of the cars, the entire feel of the drive feels so crap, so ... Bleh!

I really hope by "It's not so much arcade" you don't actually call this turd anywhere near realistic? Then i will be laughing until i hit the grave.

some screenies?

Some random screenshots I took ingame (first 3 are the cars in the demo): http://www.users.on.net/~slick0/nfscarbon/

Before anyone asks, no there is no native widescreen support. :)
