  • It's an absolute pleasure from start to finish - a milestone in a genre of racing games that has unfortunately lost its' footing and become much more timid. If you have the means to play Midnight Club 3, do it. You won't be disappointed.
    FINAL SCORE: 10/10

    Midnight Club 3 was a great game. I still remember driving around the cities and just soaking in the atmosphere as a kid.
    It really is the closest game to the early Fast and Furious Movies.

    Found out about this game last year and I grew up with the NFS games. This blows the NFS games out of the water. This game has speed, insane amount of vehicles, songs, tracks, 4 fucking cities which gives you more land than the NFS games. More traffic and types of traffic. Arcade has so many modes. If I could go back in time and tell my teenage self one thing that was related to gaming? Get this over Most Wanted 2005.

    Nevermind a remaster or a remake, if this game got ported to all of the current gen consoles then it'd be putting the _Murder-Death-Kill_ on the whole open world racing genre all over again.

    Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix is one is those games i'm biased towards, and I genuinely can't be objective on because of how much fun and rewarding it is. Especially when i've been playing this very game when i was a 4 years old and beat it countless times. Rose tinted glasses on everytime. I remember having countless debates about whats better Midnight Club or Need For Speed, and i loved NFS but I had nothing but good things to say about Midnight Club. Rockstar needsbto bring this back, just for old times sake, it would completely compete with Forza without question

    Great summary, thanks for the nostalgia trip from my childhood. And yes i played the hell out of MC2, and even replayed it earlier this year. One of the most unforgiving, frustrating, but high octane and chaotic racing games ever made. It's more linear but also more unforgiving than MC3.

    I had all the big players back in the day. I had NFS Most Wanted, NFS Carbon, Forza Motorsport 1, I even had L.A. Rush. Beat every single one.
    Midnight Club 3 Remix is just a better overall videogame. It even ages better. The physics are Rockstar at their absolute best. The sense of speed, the race variety, the ghetto fabulous settings of 3 PLAYABLE CITIES with endless street races and road course tournaments. It's not as dense with characters as NFS, but the characters it does have show more personality. Cars are absurdly fast and responsive and well planted to the road, but not like NFS where the handling is so stiff that you can't get a good drift going without losing a ton of speed or just being unable to recover the stiff slides. MC3 is truly 'just right'.
    It's arcade racing at its absolute finest and I don't say that lightly. I want this game to be the face of street racer modding in the future. Its mechanics have zero flaws to me.
    I cannot for the life of me understand how Need for Speed gained the vast lead it did over everyone when it came to popularity. It's a perfectly good game, but the rigid physics seriously hold it back from beating this.
    I had a feeling playing this game again would reignite those same feelings I had as a kid, but oh well. Rose tinted glasses stay on.

    Midnight club will in fact cause your eyes to dry out, you'll learn to ignore cramps in your hand, and you will verbally abuse your tv these are not subjective experiences they are merely facts you will learn to accept. Or don't. The game dont care. Midnight 2 and 3 are what i describe as, and this might go over some people's heads, the naxx 40 of racing games. Most wanted races were easy for the most part. Rubberbanding was a huge issue. Midnight club has no rubberbanding or at least not that I can tell. It doesn't need it. The game moves so fast and ai behaves almost identical to your own driving, you can easily finish some races 20 seconds before the rest especially if they crash into a trolley or bus never to catch up again. Higher class vehicles and races in Atlanta and Detroit are simply unforgivable, if you're over halfway in a race and you hit a wall to a stop you restart. Simple as that

    I can't believe Rockstar abandoned this series. If anything, they should make a new MC game implementing the best parts from different franchises and make the best. They already did with RDR and Bully I don't see a reason to not reinvent the genre. The market is already there with people play Mario kart and asphalt.

    A remastered version would be dope. But even better another entry entirely. But sticking to the gaudy car culture of those times. It’s what’s missing in the genre. Forza and gran turismo are great for what they are. Horizon was another good genre for what it was. Need for speed I feel shifted away from its roots. But midnight club has always had something special about it. Las Angeles was great for its time
