It got a 2 thumbs up Preview in my latest gaming magazine. "Nearing perfection after Midtown Madness ... the believable characters create an authentic streetracer feeling"

i have the first one for PS2.....i dont really like it. To much of an arcade type driving game for me

Thanks

I just like racing, not sure if this can be just racing. I prefer racing like the NFS series. Though hitting some pedistrians sounds fun.

<i>Streets are strewn with boxes, Vespas and people (hittable people…especially the French ones)

Not only that, but the game features the best sense of speed seen on the system so far.</i>

Both?

blade: you looking forward to NFS: Underground or does it look a lil too "mainstream" to you? I'm divided between both. Hot Pursuit 2 was kickass.

NFS: Underground ? Haven't heard of that one. Got link?

Of the NFS series, the last one I liked the best, Hot Persuit 2. All were good but 2 and 4, to me.

It's been recently announced and released this fall. Street racing with modifications and garage and such. Looks like a fast and the furious type game.

Looks interesting. Kind of like fast and the furious meets midtown madness.

Just hope there are no time limits. Me just wants to race.

Hitting pedistrians like in road rash is always a blast. Which btw I wish they update that.

Anyone know how to get the cheat codes to work?

This doesn't work and I never can get the cheat codes menu to show:

<i>Cheat Codes
Go to [OPTIONS] then [CHEAT CODES] and enter the following CASE SENSITIVE cheat codes for the desired effect:
Code: Result:
griswold Unlock All Cities

See my other post about it.

It's fun for LAN parties - we had a blast playing it in CTF mode at Red-Eye LAN on saturday, but other than that I wouldn't waste my time on it.

The menu interface is BY FAR the most annoying, most illogical, most unintuitive piece of crap EVER written.

We only figured out how to enter the cheat codes by brute force trial and error - even with instructions. After doing it several times, I couldn't repeat it.

Only cheat code we used was the one to unlock all the vehicles. The motorcycles are a riot. We played an all cycle game that was cool, but they're hard to control and you keep flying off it.

I like the LA Cop Car - takes a beating and fairly fast.

Do a search on Google and you should find some help.

I do not play multi player, just single. I did check google, which is how I found those cheats. They do not work, which is why I was asking if anyone had some that do work.

But thanks.

The code to unlock all the vehicles is correct, it's just a pain in the ass to actually navigate to the menu that gives you the selection to enter the cheat codes.

Took us forever tofigure it out, and I immediately forgot it
