Has a flamboyance to it that hasn’t been replicated since it’s inception. Don’t expect the story it has to be a blockbuster. Gameplay is arcade-like for those who prefer realism

The simpler and joyful times when every game on the market didn't had to be sterilized and filtered to not be cancelled by twitter mobs, when putting a t-mobile on the table was cooler than putting a black brick, kanye's new albums didn't suck, and main protagonists were someone with actual personality instead of some wood log with body type 1/2. Add in some soul and a good ass soundtrack with atmosphere and you got yourself a video game that rockstar would never dare touching again, 2008 era time capsule in a xbox 360 home console disc.

Better than NFS.

Unfortunately this is the last one.

Perdeu completamente a essência ao longo dos anos


Pretty good arcade street racer with a nice selection of cars. Unfortunately it's a bit grindy, and one mistake can ruin a 5 minute race. You can unlock cheat codes by finding secret barrels, but activating any of the cheats prevents you from gaining money, experience, or advancing the main story. I like it, but there are much better-looking racers these days. I also don't like how much it thrashes the optical drive on my PS3.

its good but the camera makes me ill

"I got more than that."
"Just making you nervous is all."
"Yeah, yeah."
"Sorry!"
"Can’t take the heat, stay out of LA."
"I’ll apologize after I win, how’s that?"
"Get out of the way!"
"Gotcha!"
"Knock knock!"
"Stay out of my way then."
"Just playing a little rough is all."
"That was on you!"
"Pull over and let the big boys race."
"You like that, huh?"
"Right, whatever."
"Who’s fault was that? Not me."
"Like that?"
"Bam!"
"Your fault!"
"Whoops!"
"Come on, that was nothing!"
"Hey!"
"Get off the road!"

"sending her back to the valley to make pornography"

Very good open-world racing game with pretty town to explore and huge amount of stuff to do. At the end of the game you are asked to do some extreme grinding of races in order to be able to make progress and unlock missions which was boring and sucked hard. Good voice acting & soundtrack.

Ces connards t'arrivais 1 seconde en retard ils te payaient pas je l'oublierais jamais ça

I rage quit this thing when I was about to win a pinks race going 150mph when the 2nd place AI driver blew past me at what must have been 400mph. The rubber banding was brutal in this game.

Playing this in my youth was the best thing ever

IM FREE AS A MOTHERFUCKING BIRD I SWEAR

They won't make games where the main character uses a T-Mobile Sidekick anymore, sad.

i don't remember a single thing about playing this game.

This is still the game I compare every open-world racer to. And they all lack that tight frantic city racing that this game got so right.
Honestly, I wasn't able to re-play that game since my PS3 died a few years before the PS4 was released, so there is probably a heavy dose of nostalgia mixed in. Still, I really miss this game and there are these days when I almost buy a PS3 just to play that one again...

PS: Actually bought a PS3 again mostly to play this game again 😅

While let down by a poorly done end game that mostly revolves around grinding for money and being rewarded with radiant quests (more or less) and a handling model that is akin to a soap bar slip-sliding on a sheet of ice, the game makes up for it in spades with one of the best soundtracks in racing, and a Los Angeles that feels truly living and breathing, ironically, only beaten in virtual form by Rockstar creating a fake version of it in GTA V.

unironically my favorite Rockstar game and a game I turn on and have mindless comforting fun when I don't feel like playing anything. This game is loaded with funny glitches which only enhance the experience. Racing is really fun and engaging with tons of customization and cars. 3.5 ★

Open world (and activities in it), OST, level design, game design, car's tuning options, car's handling - sooooo good! Just a great game, peak of Rockstar San Diego racing games and one of the best racing games ever made! For me, ofcourse.

one of the few racing games I like

can someone give me a nice blowjob while i play midnight club la i really need one

i had to juggle through this game with my brothers and i only played 2 out of the 30 times

quando fiquei mais velho depois de ter jogado MC3 no PS2 tive um xbox e comprei esse jogo,mas eu tinha amadurecido e achei meio mé


Gameplay & customization is solid, but the content is pretty dry.

I bought this only for the lowriders. The lowriders suck

i feel mixed about this game. while it does sort of bring back the driver personalities of 2, it just feels like some GTA cutscenes rather than midnight club. the gameplay is fine and there's many variety in races. the customization is fine, I believe there was more to it than the third game. but goddamn, i felt like this game dragged on for forever.
