I'm giving this 9 just because I lack the full experience of xbox live, being too late acquiring the game. However, I can put the multiplayer split level to umpteen uses ... even by myself, switching between controllers.
Just today I drove the DC school bus in the subway, being pursued by 4 Keystone Kops ...hehe.
It depends, I guess, on what one is after. I play the cruise mode rather than the rest of it, tho' I did win a couple of races. Like the other reviewer, the actual races and levels are unforgiving and annoying, so I stay away from them.
I DID manage to get the two secret cars, so that's cool. Four paint jobs remain and I think I'll just get one of my gamer friends to get them for me so I don't slam the controller down in frustration, forgetting that it IS, in fact, just a game.
Midtown Madness 3 is gorgeous! The redraw is smooth, the sense of weight and suspension in each vehicle feels so solid, and I literally stay up sometimes all night as I jump on roofs, hide in glitches, pit myself against said Keystone Kops, and 'loop them out' (they get confused, it seems) by diving in the water over and over; it's how I got my diva movie star back in one piece... LOL.
I know it's not to everyone's liking, but I'm a fan.
