What It Is

The first racing game from Microsoft Game Studios enabled for Xbox live, Midtown Madness 3 provides gamers with madcap, over-the-top racing and driving excitement in two of the world’s trickiest cities to drive through – Paris, France and Washington D.C.

Why It’s Fun

Midtown Madness 3 allows gamers to get behind the wheel of more than thirty vehicles while competing in several race modes such as Blitz, Checkpoint and Cruise. In the Cruise mode, you can just cruise around town and explore some incredibly deep and highly detailed representations of the two cities. There’s also a Career Mode featuring fourteen driving careers with more than fifty missions including a limousine driver, pizza deliverer, taxi driver and police officer.

Plus, the online compatibility of the game means you can race live with other gamers across the Internet.


Who’s Going To Love It

Racing fans will enjoy this game, which combines aspects of the Grand Theft Auto games (without the violence) with Crazy Taxi and a little classic Pole Position racing excitement.


What To Be Aware Of

The System Link feature allows players to link multiple Xbox game systems together for split-screen play on one TV monitor. (Additional hardware for linking is sold separately.)
