    Yes it's a port, but a port of a superb console original and it's a great achievement to bring this smash hit onto PSP.

    MC3 kicks the heck out of the past couple of PSP racing games. What it lacks in graphical delivery the audio department and depth of gameplay more than make up for.

    Even with its small share of problems and the exclusion of a few features here and there, Midnight Club: DUB Edition for the PSP is a Must-Have for gamers that are in the mood for arcade racing at its most fun.

    As long as you can stand the loading times, I see no reason why I would not suggest picking up Midnight Club 3.

    Is it overly harsh to pound on a game for having dreadful loadtimes?... On the other hand, it's a good game deep, deep, deep down inside.

    Sixty-second load times every time the player moves from one event to another are almost unbearable, and had these been removed our review would have been much more gracious. It is almost tragic that such a wonderful game could be crippled by this singular flaw.

    Even while I was driving, the frame rates slipped at times as the PSP chugged to keep up with the blistering action that "Midnight" is known for. That made things like the time-warp slowdown ability seem more sluggish than stimulating.

    The graphics for the game is good and fabous but the only problem is when you press x you have to be careful or else it will be damage.

The CG animation bears the stale look of late-1990s DreamWorks throwaways (despite its reported budget of over $100 million), all in service of a paper-thin plotline, lowest-common-denominator gags and a gooey center that fakes its soul with blatant â… Expand

    IGN was harsh on pounding this game for having long loadtimes because that doesn't describe the experience itself. Just some patienceIGN was harsh on pounding this game for having long loadtimes because that doesn't describe the experience itself. Just some patience required. However, this game was very frustrating for me, in a way that made me determined to complete it, despite it having long loadtimes, and it took me a LONG time to complete, but it was worth it in the end. This is an entertaining game.… Expand

    I think this is the best racer on the PSP. It is simply amazing how they brought the depth and gameplay from the Ps2 onto this handheld. Yes, I think this is the best racer on the PSP. It is simply amazing how they brought the depth and gameplay from the Ps2 onto this handheld. Yes, the load times are very long but I learned to accept them. They basically load large portions of the map so as to prevent any lag during gameplay. It is a fast game with AI traffic as well as AI opponents. I am very happy with this game and have been playing it for the past 3 days. Although in regards to customization, the user cannot apply the pearescent color scheme but that's understandable. Beautiful graphics, fast gameplay, deep customization.… Expand
