The chase is on

Wii takes the cop chases and turf wars to a new level!The battle starts on the streets of Palmont but is won in the canyons as Need for Speed: Carbon immerses you in the world's most dangerous and adrenaline-filled forms of street racing.Features* The classic Need for Speed controls and immersive gameplay experience combine with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers for a one-of-a-kind experience * More than 50 Muscle, Exotic and Tuner cars available for you to customize * Use your crew's help to win Canyon races and customize your cars using Autosculpt.

After battling for control of Palmont streets, the action shifts to Carbon Canyon, where territories and reputations can be lost on every perilous curve. With captivating graphics and stunning visual effects, players will be completely immersed in a gut-check race around the canyons where more than just winning is at stake.Carbon offers more than 50 custom rides in three distinct classes – Tuner, Exotic, and Muscle -- each with unique attributes. Muscle are best on straightaways, of which there are precious few in Palmont.Need for Speed Carbon gives you the power to design and tweak your car in every way – including over 300 different parts – using the ground-breaking new Autosculpt technology.As with other racing games you hold either end of the Wii Controller and tilt it to steer your car. If you'd rather not take the motion-control plunge EA thoughtfully provides five different steering configurations, including using the Nunchuk's analog stick. My advice is to forget about old school -- the Wii Remote is the way to go. How did we ever enjoy racing games before it was invented?Birds of a Fuel-Injected FeatherNew are the three kinds of wingmen (and yes, that's what the game calls them). Scouts search for shortcuts. Blockers create distractions and slow rivals. Drafters give you a second of speed boost for every second you can stay behind them. All three also give you moral support via wireless communications.Scouts are most useful the first few times you run a course. Drafters are of limited use on Palmont's twisting thoroughfares. Practically indespensible are Blockers, who are always willing to lay their precious paint jobs on the line so you can cross the finish line first. Now that's true friendship.
