There are a lot of breakable items on the sides of the streets, such as light posts, barricades, and so on. It's as if the other cars were made of cardboard. While the streets are filled with traffic, cars fly out of the way when your car comes into contact with them. The physics and collision detection are a little crazy. Once you get hold of the game's faster cars, the driving really is quite fun, but the slower cars are, as you might expect, pretty boring.

Cars whip around corners with little problem, you rarely have to use your brakes, and generally, the game is designed for fun rather than for accuracy. The physics model and control found in Midtown Madness 3 seem to be designed to be about as far from a racing simulation as you can get. The racer AI and rigid nature of the checkpoint-style races grow tiresome fairly quickly, making the single-player game less than exciting, especially when it forces you to race in, say, an aggravatingly slow armored car.

All styles of races present opportunities to unlock either more races or more vehicles for use in the offline modes. The other one-player modes are a little more in line with the Midtown Madness legacy, offering the ability to cruise the streets aimlessly, to participate in checkpoint races against the AI, or to engage in blitz races, which are checkpoint races against the clock.

This basically wraps a loose story around a series of checkpoint races, though the story isn't very interesting and is stacked high with lots of poor voice work. Each job puts you in different vehicles, so you'll be driving police cars, pizza-delivery cars, rental cars, money-transporting armored cars, and so on. Essentially, you're taking on a bunch of random car-related jobs as you attempt to get to the bottom of some silly crime. The main mode is called 'work undercover,' and it serves as a weird sort of story mode for the game. Each city offers the same collection of single-player modes. The other city, Washington DC, makes use of overpasses and trickier-to-navigate roads, so starting with Paris and working your way up to DC is recommended. Though you can pick from either city at any time, Paris is laid out in an easier-to-navigate fashion.

Midtown Madness 3 gives you two complete cities to work with. Now Playing: Midtown Madness 3 Video Review By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's
