Sure it's nice to land on the cover of Electronic Arts' annual Madden NFL games, but another EA series has been catching the interest of gamers for its inclusion of celebrities. The Need for Speed series has been including some well-known personalities in its game, but rather than incorporating the hulking, chiseled frames of jocks, NFS opts for curvy, easy-on-the-eyes models and actresses.

The next edition of the franchise, Need for Speed Carbon, isn't breaking that trend. EA today announced that actress Emmanuelle Vaugier (pictured) will play a leading role in the upcoming game. Vaugier, known for roles in the gore-fest Saw 2 and the equally disturbing (in a different way) CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men. She'll handle the role of Nikki, the ex-girlfriend of the game's hero.

Vaugier follows in the high-heeled footsteps of Wild On host and Maxim mainstay Brooke Burke in Need for Speed Underground 2, and Van Helsing actress and model Josie Maran in Need for Speed Most Wanted.

Need for Speed is scheduled for release this fall on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, DS, Game Boy Advance, PlayStation Portable, and PC. For more on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage.

    Celebrities really aren't needed to make the game any better. They could have just cruised the mall and find attractive girls there... lol Well as long as the game is good I'm on board.

    I really think the story counts and having a charming lady makes it even more attracting, NFSMW was a fabulous smash with the story, graphics, and every thing else, can't wait to see what they have to offer with their new NFSC

    LOL soulmanpt
    But dont you think that the best game on the shelf would be a different one?
    Not saying that MW sucked, just the story sucked.
    Id say that the mostly bought game would be the best (Obviously).
    More like WoW or HL2/CSS
    But i have high hopes for Carbon, and the model helps alot.
