Y'all remember the actors in Carbon are from the TV series Supernatural where Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles are known for? Tahmoh Penikett played as Gadreel in the show before playing as Darius, while Emmanuelle Vaugier as Madison before playing as Nikki. Neville and Angie's actor are also there in the show before they we're offered to be in the game.
Interesting! I remember in Raycevick's video on Carbon he specifically mentioned Tahmoh being a part of some television shows, but I didn't know about the other actors being in the TV series scene before Carbon
@@ThunderousFolf They we're offered to play as recurring characters in the show but not the main ones. Until the time where 4 of the actors from Supernatural accepted the challenge to play as the characters in Carbon. Sadly, I don't even know about the rest. Emmanuelle Vaugier (Nikki's actress) however, played as Madison in the show before Carbon, but she was offered short screentime, so she was killed by Sam Winchester so she wouldn't have to live as a monster ever again, as seen in the episode "Heart" from Season 2.
Most underrated NFS game! The only one I still play regularly (aside from Heat), the muscle cars are my favorite & best imo with their slidy handling 💯 Great video dude!
Rough edges aside, I still love NFS Carbon to this day! As you said- Carbon's physics (and Most Wanted) is a unique fun-factor that's lacking in newer NFS games for me- Every time I play a Criterion NFS it just makes me want to play Burnout. And not to mention Speedbreaker further compliments the driving physics even for humorous situations where you can break the driving physics with combined use of NOS + sharp turning. Drafters though...I discovered their true potential when you just stay in their slipstream but don't bother initiating overtakes, until you want to stop speeding. And when dealing with corners, just use *light taps* of the Speedbreaker while drafting with them around the corners for some physics-breaking results. I've exploited this to create some chaotic moments for my own amusement. It's hard to explain but you just need to try for yourself, maybe you'll record something epic!
To me Carbon was the weakest of them all. It just feels lackluster and unfinished. Can't explain but there is a reason why I don't come back to this title at all.
Great video brother. I am a HUGE fan of NFS Carbon, and have always felt sad about EAs greed gravely affecting what could have been an amazing Sequel (still great though). I am interested in the Battle mode mod, and will look into it to see if its worth downloading
I disagree about muscle cars being the worst in Carbon. They are the best if you have the skill to handle them. Acceleration is broken that game. I got a challenge for you. Beat the Wii version of Carbon with a Mario Kart racing wheel and a manual dodge charger.
15:10 yeah thats a hella challenge and sometimes unfair but if you unlock the nissan 240 and max it, its easier, same for the jaguar that i dont remember its full name
Loved this one as a kid ,but i was for a long time waiting for the sun, like a lot lol, also got lost many times and didnt finished it , but had fun with it

They were in Carbon first. Their supernatural appearances came later. Aside from Nikki's actress, that is.

Ah shit, I came back here to hear the news that Neville's actor died. I can't believe that he's gone.
i was not ready for 7:15 😳

Underrated youtuber :[
Not big into the fursona thing, but this was a phenomenal breakdown of one of my favorite games of all time.
Sal’s actor is Elias Toufeixs, now best known for his VA as Adam Jensen

I can't wait for the sequel, Need for Speed: Oxygen.
Need for Speed: Nitro
I liked car sounds, the world setup and free roam duel races in this game. But it didn't have the same charm of MW imo.
Played this game on 360 once a few years ago. Picked Sal and instantly won everything. I was wondering why the game was so easy XD
Carbon was the first NFS game I binged! My favourite class is Tuner.
got softlocked with a game crash after beating the first boss and it made me stop playing. need to go back and play it

If EA didn't rush the living hell out of the now dead Blackbox team, then alot of the games B.B made should have been different.
