Abstract: Midnight Club Los Angeles has a lot going for it: excellent graphics; fast, intense racing that takes place day or night; and numerous online modes that support up to 16 racers. Unfortunately, it has a few rather significant problems that hold it back,...
A damn near perfect open-world street racing experience, online and off.
Single-player learning curve can be a bit steep; multiplayer favors gearheads with high-end rides.
If theres one thing that the racers of Midnight Club: Los Angeles love more than tearing through LAs streets at 100-plus miles an hour, its talking smack. From the second they roll up to the starting line until the last racer crosses the finish, it...
Abstract: Midnight Club has been around for quite some time, but I must confess that the series has sort of flown under my radar in recent years. With series like Gran Turismo, Need for Speed, Forza, and Burnout dominating the field, it is easy to forget about R...

Abstract: Particularly frustrating is driving a near-perfect race, suffering a seemingly unavoidable collision and watching rivals speed past. Often it seems the best strategy is to sit back in second place, then use a nitrous boost to dash to the finish line. ...
Jaw-dropping graphics. Enormous, streaming virtual rendition of Los Angeles. Stunning cars which are highly customisable. Excellent physics on the vehicles give them a good weighted feel. The inclusion of motorbikes.
Small selection of cars and bikes to choose from. Difficult AI. Lacking any truly unique features. Lacking a real story line.
Abstract: Rockstar has unleashed vehicle tuning heaven in a Grand Theft Auto style racing world. Midnight Club is very much an arcade style racer, but while the physics are pretty forgiving, the computer controlled drivers arent. The game is very challenging a...
You can’t help but admire the artistry with which Rockstar’s world has been created, but too many fundamental elements fall short of greatness. It’s a pretty competitive genre too, which doesn’t help… 8.0/10Print this pageUs...
