Need for Speed Carbon demo!


Recommended Posts

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.

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!

why ? because it's not so much arcade like it was pff cmon

"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. :)

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
    • It's growing on me, however, your right, it make better usability sense if the tabs were bellow the address bar.
    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
