In Dead Space 3 you can craft your own weapon but you need certain items which you can either pick up yourself or send a service bot to collect them which presumably will take time, or pay money to EA to unlock the gun. This is a F2P model which has infiltrated into $60 games, and I think EA have done this before with Need for Speed: Carbon, but I&#8217;m not sure. The site spotted this during a hands-on session and the text on the screen said: &#8220;Cannot craft.

Frankly, that's what we thought when the latest title in the series was announced. After all, the damn good Most Wanted just came out a year ago, so what could Carbon possibly offer so soon afterwards that would get our motors runnin'? It turns out that the answer comes in two parts.

The default setting sees the Wii-mote used as a steering bar, held parallel to the ground and turned like a wheel in order to maneuver your car on screen, but the three other setups offer more ways to take on your street-racing rivals.

In a joint venture with Nettwerk One Music, the new LA-based Artwerk record label will sign both new and established artists, the first of which will be Junkie XL, who worked on music for Madden, SSX Blur and Need for Speed Carbon games.
