    Impressively, the game takes full advantage of the PSP’s analogue stick giving it an incredibly responsive feel. You’re given a sense of total control over each vehicle and the subtle nuances between the cars and bikes are instantly apparent.

    Midnight Club L.A. Remix looks very good on PSP. It has a perfect recreation of L.A. and Tokyo pictured into great details. The illegal car racing experience and the tuning culture are perfectly recreated. Numerous gaming modes, different racing styles and huge variety of cars to choose from, all together offer you a dazzling experience to enjoy for hours. Ideal for players who prefer the arcade style without limits.

    Innovative only in its exceptional presentation, L.A. Remix is nevertheless a fast and furious jaunt through not one but two massive bergs, and it does just about everything a city racer could ever be expected to do within the miniaturized PSP environment. Despite its few foibles, this is a keeper.

    Midnight Club: Los Angeles Remixed is a worthy addition to the series even though it has a few stumbles here and there.

    Rockstar Games strikes again with another portable game with great graphics, solid controls and tons of content. It may not be their best work, but it's definitely worth checking out!

    Same (boring) racing system during player’s career as in the PlayStation version on one side but marvelous graphics and fantastic sound effects with two living megacities on the other. [Dec 2008]

    A great game. No doubt! Loading times are pretty long, but not a problem if you are playing it off your memory stick.

    If other developers put half the effort that Rockstar do into psp titles then I'd be a very happy bunny. This is the first of the If other developers put half the effort that Rockstar do into psp titles then I'd be a very happy bunny. This is the first of the Midnite Club titles I've played so I can only judge it on its own merits. I love it. Brilliant soundtrack and effects and wonderful presentation, graphics and gameplay make this one of the best driving games I have played yet. Time will tell whether I tire of it but for now I am absolutely loving this - 8/10.… Expand

A street racer with quite realistic physics and good graphics. If I recall correctly, the biggest problem were the long loading times, which kind of killed the point of a handheld, as the line would get to my turn before the game even loaded, so not a good pick up and play title in that regard.… Expand

    I have only played this for an hour or so, but I can give this game at least a 7 for a few reasons. Amazing soundtrack; all the latest from I have only played this for an hour or so, but I can give this game at least a 7 for a few reasons. Amazing soundtrack; all the latest from the hardcore dance scene. Smooth gameplay and decent destructible system. It does say show your doors and hood flying off like in games such as Flatout or Burnout. But it does have what seems to be more realistic physics. On the downside, it's very strange that there is these mariocart style power ups though. One minute I'm playing this street racing title, and the next I am 'shocked' by my opponent causing my controls to be inversed!… Expand
