About Dave
Expertise
I can answer a majority of questions. Questions for popular online fps/rpg games, technical difficulties running the game itself, if a certain game is worth to buy or not, tips, cheats, and whatever you want to know. If I can't answer your question confidently, then I will help you find another place that will get it :D

Experience
About 12 years of video game experience starting out with the good ole' classics. I later went to Half-Life and Quake, then spending most of my video game life with most action/shooter games. From then I have played many games spanning through most consoles and especially the PC. I also have a huge library of games (I stopped counting around 120 for the PC alone :P )

Organizations
I am currently an assistant manager at a GameStop which helps me get closer to games and asses them if anyone needs that particular help. I also do odd jobs for people in my spare time. Kinda like Niko in GTAIV...okay that's a bad example.

Education/Credentials
High school graduate. Still deciding on what to major in college. Computer Science maybe?

Awards and Honors
Nothing related to games though :(

Console Games (Nintendo, Sony etc.) and Arcade Games - NEED FOR SPEED CARBON game tips & strategies


Expert: Dave - 11/3/2008

Question
NEED FOR SPEED CARBON(Xbox 360)

Note: The other versions should have the same track/road.  Since I do not own the other versions, I cannot confirm this.

*****Get $1 million without starting all over again!*****

(1)Go to the "Safe House" that is located in the southern area of the map.

(2)Go to "Free Roam" mode, you should now be looking at the giant donut/pursuit breaker.

(3)Go left and keep going straight(past the first stop light, the diner should be located on right side).  You should end up in a "4 way intersection,"  Stop before you cross it.

(4)Look on the left side, see that corner?  Go in reverse and then "park" your car in about a "45 degree angle" still facing the original direction that you originally arrived in.

(5)Wait for about 10 seconds for a "rival" to challenge you.  Traffic sometimes builds up here, so there is a 50/50 chance they will crash into something or the traffic will block their path!  Accept the challenge.

(6)On the map, select the "flag" that is located on the southern most area of the map.  Since you are already facing that direction, just let the "nitrous" loose and follow the arrow.  This is the "easiest & shortest" way to get cash that I know of.

(7)You get an easy $1,000.00 cash for the win, but I would "strongly" recommend to use the "jump to safe house" option to avoid the cops since your goal is to collect as much cash as you need as soon as possible, then repeat.

(8)Because this gets boring really fast, I would "strongly" recommend playing music while doing this.  Think of it this way, instead of just chilling out doing nothing while listening to music, you could "slowly" accumalate $1,000,000.00 cash in the process too!

*****Get the attention of the cops faster!*****

Speeding and ramming into traffic will get the cops attention too, however this method is slow.  To hasten this process, simply run over the mail box, bus stop, garbage, etc... and they will start looking for you.  I know this sounds weird, but it works!

*****Better chance to disable cop cars in a blockade!*****

When you have enough momentum(at least 55 mph, ideally you should go as fast as you possibly can), aim for the "middle to rear end" of the cop car blocking your way.  Although using the "speed breaker" is highly effective if timed properly on the impact, make sure that you have enough left to use to avoid a spike strip "before" you hit it!

Here you go Dave, I hope this helps somebody out!  Once again, thanks for your help earlier!

My questions(not Need For Speed Carbon related)

(1)I am just curious, is it still possible for me to find a "brand new & factory sealed" original Xbox console in a store or am I "stuck" with being forced to buy a used one?

(2)How much would a "brand new & factory sealed" original Xbox console cost today?

Peace out, later dude!

Answer
No problem.

1. Most places (like where I work) have a majority of refurbished consoles, while the newer released ones (Xbox 360 Pro) are still brand new. You could find a new, regular Xbox 360 in Best Buy or Circuit City. I got mine on E-bay, which is also a good place to look.

2. I don't know about that. But I would assume about $140 - $200.
