Widescreen Gaming Forum

I prefer Vantage or Vanquish. They look a bit more agressive. :twisted:

EA game...PC...Widescreen? Seems doubtful :P

I tested xbox 360 Carbon demo and I must say I am so dissapointed..Need for speed series has lost the edge..

And the xbox 360 version of carbon don't look good at all..
Second thing..You can only drive at night..that is so crap..

Am I going to buy this crap? well maybe at 1/3 of the price...

Any idea when the PC-demo is out?

Heh.

I'm slightly taller than Steefy! ;) 200.66cm! 8) (The .66 is important - it won me £50 of a mate. ;))

Well I am 1.8 meters 5'11" tall and I cant even drive so I will probably hit 6'2" or more by the time Im done growing

Apperntly it will suport widescreen.. though i wouldn't be surprised if it only does 16:9.


Yes, the games certainly have lsot their edge - i blame the heavu focus on the lame-assed vehicle modding. that damned fad killed Need for Speed games.

"look at my flashy car that runs like shit! Aren't i cool?"

"ya! i put other drivers and pedestrians in danger to satisfy my ego!"

As you can see i really dislike teh street racing shit.

if you can afford to mod a car, you can afford to rent a racetrack.

sorry for the digress.. i'll still buy Carbon is it supports 16_10 anyway :>

The demo doesn't have widescreen support.

The resolution changer dll doesn't work (makes game run in small window top left of screen).

ArtMoney works but -V.

I'll upload screenshots after I've finished playing. :)

Edit: Comparison screenshots..

Screenshots (click on thumbnails for larger images):

4:3




16:10

Looks like a sequel to NFS: Underground :(.

Graphics arent exactally a step up either, i think ill skip this one.... damn EA.

omg i love NFS, please WSGF make a fix for this!!!

some will fix it, I'm playing NFSMW again, I may ignore this if they don't fix stuff.
