Midnight Club II

THE BAD:
Nothing really, it just can get a LITTLE frustrating sometimes. Also the Police could be smarter.

SUMMARY:
SUMMARY:
This is hands-down one of the greatest racing games I've ever played, and trust me, I've seen a WHOLE lot of racing games (Super Mario Kart, All 3 Gran Turismo's, Grand Theft Auto 3, vice City, Midnight Club 1)
Everything is just eye candy. The cities, (Paris, Tokyo, Los Angeles) are done well, though smaller than the New York and London stages in Midnight Club 1, but not generic. Each block holds different buildings!
The cars vary (including 3 motorbikes!!) and most are solid, but the Cop Cars are the best. The career mode is challenging, each race being harder than the previous one, the difficulty curve is just right. There is a race Editor Mode where you can make your own race which is one of the best features of the game.Online---uhh I don't have a modem adapter so i really don't know that experience--but if you're down w The Fast and the Furious (and 2 Fast 2 Furious for that matter) and like this underground no holds-barred reacing game---look no further.

Taken from bri89's, alternate account.

THE BAD:
The smash-the-controller-in-rage difficulty

SUMMARY:
Rockstar screwed up royally this time-- the title's all wrong. It should be Visine Presents Midnight Club II, because after bombing through Paris' narrow alleys at 180mph, running over cafe tables, and then jumping clear across the Seine, you'll need to get the red out of those dry, unblinking eyes. I usually prefer my racing to be of the simulation variety rather then the wacky arcade-style, but Midnight Club II is so much fun, my inner sim-driving geek sits down and shuts up.
As in the original, the object is to climb the ranks by challenging drivers, winning intense races, and earning faster cars. There are also cool special moves to unlock--and motorcycles. The cycles are quick but hard to handle, and theyr a favorite target in multiplayer games, as a little nudge will send you head-over-heels into oncoming traffic.
The sprawling cities--L.A., Paris, and Tokyo--are actually a little smaller than the first game's in square-mile terms, but each has a clever network of underground tunnels and wild rooftop routes that significantly increases their overall size. Some of the later races get unbelieavably difficult, though, requiring you to learn every shortcut (usually through trial and error)to be even competetive.
I've saved the best for last:This Club is online, too (assuming you've got a broadband connection). The range of multiplayer games and user-created race routes means near-limitless replay value and the chance to earn cred on a much larger street

THE BAD:
I blow up too easily sometimes.

SUMMARY:
I think this game is great. This is the first racing game that I actually had to work at. All the others are too easy. It has a wide variety of cars and bikes. I like having different vehicles I can use. This game has been very challenging so far. And I have only beaten Los Angeles so far. I can only imagine how hard the rest will be. But I look forward to finding out. I highly recommend this game to anyone who wants a good racing game. I love this game. I haven't even played the first one. This game isn't exactly perfect, although I can't think of any faults, but it is damn near close to perfect. If you don't already have it, get it.

SUMMARY:
This...game...is.....GREAT!

You can race other people in missions for fun, you can play in multyplayer with your friends for fun, you can do anything with this game!

Once you complete a mission and win the race, you will get new cars to choose from every time! The graphics are amazing and this game can't get any more realistic!

There are many options to choose from so you can play the game the way you want it, and you can learn to do amazing tricks that you never thought cars could do!

THE BAD:
not much really, uhh...

SUMMARY:
This game is very entertaining and great fun, you can go in many different routes, meaning theres no track, just a skeleton of roads, squares, streets, alleys and attractions to speed through at 150MPH. You get aver 25 pre-made models from Sabarus to Supras, and also bikes, which surprisongly compete with cars, but you can fall off, which downgrades it a bit. You play through LA, Paris and Tokyo, in beautifully lit streets, dark dingy Industry and even Beverly hills sytle neighborhoods, this does change Illegal street racing, and can be alot more exiting than the New Need for speed title. This game barely has any negetive parts, maybe the fact that you can sometimes go too fast and looe control, and the opponents always seem to go the Easy way, but extremely hard to get to, so they normally get ahead. But this game rocks, you go through Airports, construction site, off of bridges and through flood trenches, yes this game is awesome, but the Cops are pests, but hey, BUY THIS GAME.

THE BAD:
Nothing,sept those damn cops are like gnats

SUMMARY:
For fans of the the race,this game will have you hitting your mom to stay home from school.Ya get addicted like almost as soooooooooon as you pick up the controler.Though the missions are sorta repeditive,each gang gives more of a challange.Take this,an old guy called Diagle has a nice car and he is harded than his son,but his car is soooooo damn fast.Trust me,if you wanna race,get this and play it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!All,even people who hate racing titles,will enjoys this like worshiping a god.And when the cvops are followin you,just sing"Cant Touch This" so you can enjoy being illegal,but also not doin anything wrong..BUY TONIGHT BEFOIRE THE FLAG IS WAVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BAD:
The missions can get pretty srustarting.

SUMMARY:
The game is a pretty fun because there are a lots of cars, cool missions, and other cool features that you can ad to your car. The graphics are ok but I think that they could have been better. At least they are a lot better than the first Mid Night Club. The levels are pretty detailed and they are pretty big so there are lots of things to see. There are lots of cars to choose from and the cool part is that most cars in the game have NOS so you can so you can boost up your speed during a rece to get the win. There are lots of missions in the game but there are some of them are pretty hard and they can get pretty frustrating. That happend to me and I got very pissed and I broke my controler. Over all the game is ok and you should are leats rent is because there are lots of cool things in the game.

THE BAD:
With only three cities, you don't have much of an area choice.
Be warned. People do curse and swear in this game.
The cops need to present a bigger challenge and are too easy to escape from.

SUMMARY:
Midnight Club II does indeed have online capabilities, which open the game even further than in the first Midnight Club. The car selection is HUGE and is probably the largest vehicle selection I've seen in a racing game. The music selection is awesome and fits the game quite well. Unfortunatly, not all buildings can be driven on. In fact, if you are about to collide with an out-of-reach building after an excellent jump, you might just sail on right through it. It would have been nice if every building could be solid and not just act as a virtual you-see-it-but-you-can't-collide-with-it prop. But still, this game shouldn't be missed.
