NFS C: Hands-On and Videos @ IGN Saturday, 21.10.2006
NFS CarbonThe onlinemagazine IGN published a Hands-On of the PS3-Version of Need for Speed Carbon.

While we've already written tons and tons on the game's basics, when we'd seen the game up and running on the PlayStation 3 previously it was in early form and honestly looked it. Today though, we got a chance to see the nearly finished build and it now looks to easily be on par with the Xbox 360 version.

And they also published 4 new videos:

NFS C: Paying for Cheats? Wednesday, 18.10.2006
NFS CarbonElectronic Arts didn't make much friends, when offering bonus features for those who buy Need for Speed Carbon at EA Downloader, since those who buy the game "regularly" will be disadvantaged.
Today the german onlinemagazine Winfuture reports, that you even have to pay for cheats in EA's latest title 'Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007'.

With the release of the game 'Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007' for the Xbox 360 EA claims fees for unlocking cheats. So you can unlock better players and new courses, when you play with game points, you bought first with your credit card.

It will be difficult for Electronic Arts to explain its customers this new policy, since cheats have always been free. The higher production costs of games of the new generation can hardly be an excuse for the payment for cheats.


Time will show which way Electronic Arts will go with Need for Speed Carbon, but the try to make profit with cheats won't really work...
