Need for Speed: Carbon has been professionally graded, authenticated, and encapsulated by WATA (parent company PSA Video Games) using the Unified grading scale. This copy received an overall grade of 9.6 and A, placing it in the Gold Rated collector tier. Under the Unified scale, this corresponds to a Near Mint + / Mint example, which is comparable to 90 on the Standard scale according to the official CGA grade equivalency chart, representing a high-end collectible that borders Mint, with only the slightest signs of handling.
All graded games are professionally cleaned prior to encapsulation, then sealed inside a tamper-evident, archival-safe display case designed for long-term preservation and presentation. This ensures the game remains protected from environmental exposure while maintaining its integrity as a certified collectible intended for display within a serious collection.
