Need for Speed: Carbon. It's official, a 2G is in the game.

Nice to see they're putting a 2G in the game. Looks like a GSX to me. Anyway, I'm a gamer so this makes me happy.

Cheers.

Too bad i'm not going to buy a PS3. My Xbox360 is a big enough paperweight already.

 

[dyno_detour]

Im almost positive the XBOX 360 version will have the same cars as PS3.

 

[ILLiCliPSE]

are those graphics suppose to be good? if thats ps3 that looks like ass.

 

[TSIMonsteR]

I was about to say the same thing. BTW they had the 2g GSX in NFS Underground.... it was actually the car on the intro to the game...

 

[president95]

the wheels make me think its a gst

 

[slipstream808]

They NEVER put the AWD's in the game. Not when there is the EVO.

*grumble*

 

[notwho]

umm, a 2g is availabel in Tokyo Extreme Racer 0, Street Racing Syndicate and GT4

 

[grnchevyz]

Don't forget Juiced

And in Juiced, is IS a GSX

FORZA 2 has a GSX

Yeah. OP, did you not think they had a 2g in the other games?

 

[98eclipseRS]

The wheels say gs-t but it seems all the need for speeds have gsxs with gs-t wheels. NFSU2 is a great example as is NFSU

 

[Xtassyloco]

what 98eclipseRS said is correct the first 2 games had GSX's but the third one messed it up with the 4G, now if it was the HKS concept then it would have been awsome

 

[dr1ftx3]

Anyone else think juiced was a joke, after you build like 4 outrageously fast cars you just have your crew race every race and win by like 5 minutes.....the game just like died out haha

 

[PieEyedPiper]

I'm not sure if those specs are correct that they listed in that second link..
2006 Eclipse GT considerabley faster than a 1999 GSX?
Unlikely.

Maybe the specs say so, but I've test driven a 2006 GT and it was nothing in comparison to my mostly stock car (I don't even have an exhaust). Also 120mph top speed? using wal-mart tires?

Interesting nonetheless.

NFSU/NFSU2 both had a 2g GSX if i remember. sadly, the intro for NFSU2 is the reason i started looking at eclipses.

and some of the screenshots look 100x better than others. methinks crappy ones are PS3/360 and the better ones are PC.

 

[thefunkpig]

According to those statistics, it says that a 0-60 is 7.4 seconds. Now, i know that 2G GST/Xs generally had magazine testers run around the mid-to-high six second range.

 

[Defiant]

It's not an Eclipse. It's a modified Talon. Heretics.

 

[andymoraitis]

If you look carefully at the rear tires, it looks like it needs a DIY camber kit. Someone's been spying on us...

 

[dyno_detour]

Yeah. OP, did you not think they had a 2g in the other games?

Yes, I'm aware that 2G's have been in a lot of games. I was just making a point by saying it's nice to see they're putting one in NFS:Carbon.

Much love, Much love.



Also, I noticed in Gran Turismo 1 for PS1, the 2G is called the GT. Is that what they were known as in Japan?? Just wondering. http://www.us.playstation.com/Content/OGS/SCUS-94194/Site/

They never put a 1G in the games, they need to!

I'd say that was a spelling error...

Any visit to Motortrend or C&D and you find that the 4G GT is slower than even the 3G GT. It is a large heavy boat. They should break a bottle of champagne on the bow every time they sell one (which is hardly ever, I hear).

 

[Raph]

its not a misprint,in japan ,they were called gt and gsr 4 ,the 2g gst here (dealer imports) was officially called 2.0 gt 16v rated @ 217 hp

Truth.

When playing Forza (which has a 2nd gen TALON!) I always thought if they wanted to be a little more realistic, at some point your car should die and on the screen should pop-up "CRANKWALK"
