House real big

Let me tell you how I live
This game will always be a special place in my heart.
Soz
Huh, its belly and not betting?
The remaster is still cancelled soz
Lol.
@@thattonnatoguywithafez8246 it's supposed to be Dick if it hadn't been censored.
Dub Edition Remix is the only version of MC3 you should play
TrollskieTV
I went through 3 copies. My PS2 would scratch my games with the IR sensor until I got the PS2 Slim. Too bad the garage would still only load half the time for me anyway. Still was the best PS2 ricer game out.
@@DillonWaffles I never had to deal with FAT PS2 and it's problems, I got my PS2 when the slim came out, I was still rocking out with the PS1 and Dreamcast (which came out 4 days after my birthday)
I need to find a new copy after my uncle broke mine in 2011 😭
Please_Consume_Irresponsibly my ps4 does that now both of them
@@DillonWaffles my PS2 runs games BEAUTIFULLY (not to brag or anything) as well as MC2 AND MC3 DUB Edition Remix, so my copys loading times are surprisingly good (like 3 - 5 sec when loding cars) so im pretty proud of me owning this game.
The soundtrack for this game is godly. Remember playing this everyday after coming home from school along with Most Wanted. Just wish it was backwards compatible.
this right here was my childhood. a boy with no worries about anything other than gettin home and playing some video games. how times change
It was on PS3 for a couple years in the ps store in the ps2 classics section and same with MC2 ( MC1 is still available) but they are removed sadly.
I'm going to assume that even if you were playing it on a backwards compatible PS3, but you were never able to play the Sony store version online , if it was available, because they removed online function as well as LAN multiplayer.... unless you stick the PS2 disc in your PS2 or backwards-compatible PS3 today..... there is still Midnight Club 2 and Midnight Club 3 enjoyed online today.
If you have a decent powerful PC then download PCX2 emulator for downloading ps2 games . I’m playing it right now on PC.
you’re welcome child i made it BC
HOUSE REAL BIG CARS REAL BIG
One of the 3 songs I listen to in the game, I will spam the change song button until this or 50 Cent and The Game came on
@@KidTonyGaming same story here
BELLEH real big everything real big
My dad's grew up in the 7th ward with Minnie fresh
@@KidTonyGaming Lol, but there are so many great tracks in the game. One of the best, if not the best soundtrack for a racing game.
The moment we’ve all been waiting for
It's an absolute travesty this game wasn't released on PC. Imagine modding on a PC version
ROCKSTAR MAKE THIS HAPPEN
Imagine someone modding in the BMW from Need For Speed: Most Wanted into the game. That would be a dream come true.
If this was on PC i would definitely mod some custom loading music for it
Rockstar is gonna be like: "Aye sure lad, we'll port a 15 year old game we don't care about to PC"
@@langam7017 Or "give us 10 million dollars and we will do it
Only way to play on PC is emulator and maybe change some hex codes but mehh
Excellent review.
Just one thing:
- Zone (tuners, exotics, sports bikes and some luxury sedans)
- Agro (SUVs and luxury sedans)
- Roar (muscle cars and chopper bikes).
And another thing was that during multiplayer sessions of 2, the power ups contained prototype versions of these including EMP that wouldn't be seen until mcla.
But I guess he forgot that too
Lucas Tessaro I said the same thing as soon as I heard him talk about the abilities Lol
@@PACKERMAN2077 but he also forgot midnight club la soz
Luxury sport concepts use zone like the Lexus G430
what does agro do ?
8:30 "never mess with a dude driving a Saleen"
"Yeah, me!"
Drives a cien
i was thinking that. i suspect colourshed misheard...
Imagine having four turbos and still lose

I'm sorry for your loss😔
I invested SOOOO much time into this growing up (1,140 wins all time, including Tokyo!) One of the greatest PS2 games ever!
We need a Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition Remaster!
Just a new Midnight Club game is good enough.
A remaster would be awful.
This was supposed to be ported with widescreen/trophy support on PS4. Never happened..
I'd love a remaster! I feel like the Forza Horizon series is a good way to get the same enjoyment out of a racing game with more modern improvements. But I'd also be a little iffy after Midnight Club: LA, I felt that one was sort of a backtrack from 3 Dub Edition. Can't quite place why, but it really didn't grab my attention like 3 did.
MC3: The Re-Remix
Still annoyed they never made a sequel to LA. Cmon man. 11 years now. We get red dead but no midnight?
for real we need street racing games to make a comeback. I grew up with NFS and Midnight Club but seeing them die off by 2010 kinda sucked. Now I just play Forza, but it's not really the same at all because of the lack of mods, brands, cops etc. NFS plummeted really hard with 2015 and Payback. Maybe Heat can bring that back, and maybe Rockstar can get the San Diego studio to start working on another MC.
You have gta5 now... 🤣
There's rumors going around that next Midnight Club will be an in-game feature of GTA 6. Many GTA 6 cars will be licensed.
@Rátt Pâkk pretty sure all the rockstart SD people got fired from the 08 crash.
@@mcoeif source ?
the map in this game is honestly perfect. In conjunction with the checkpoints, it makes a race feel like an adventure while being obvious where you need to go.
Yes! I honestly love MC2 the most, but MC 3 is a great title. The soundtrack hasnt aged too horribly either. I love the QOTSA track, Little Sister in that.
Mc2 is my favorite as well. I keep my ps2 for that game and silent hill 2. That's it lol
I always though it was very funny that Qotsa - in my head was on nfs underground 2 and
qotsa - little sister was on MidnightClub 3.
They're from the same album. Track 2 and 3.
Its as if both were fighting for the same track, but one of them lose and had to get the previous/next one.
@@SummonerArthur That's pretty neat to know!
FINALLY, I've been waiting for so long for this review because this is my favourite game of all time and I love it so much
I remember playing this game soooo much, and my favorite car was the 300. So when I turned like 19 I finally got one. I thought my mom was gonna be pissed but she was like , oh you got your car !
8:00 Licensed cars with damage models were in NFS High Stakes/Road Challenge, Porsche Unleashed/Porsche 2000, and Hot Pursuit 2
@blackandgold51 While i think maybe High Stakes and Porsche Unleashed, others are bit too simplistic for to be talked about now.
@blackandgold51 the reason that ruined nfs:
New nfs games have bad storyline (since stories on nfs made it popular)
Mediocre physics (except nfs underground 1-2, nfs most wanted)
Micro transactions
And letting EA destroy black box's reputation (my opinion btw)
@@LeBornMajes *speed cards*
@@bitelaserkhalif lol yeah
@blackandgold51 oh I forgot about 2015 sorry
Yo!! I loved this game, bar none the best Midnight Club game, even better than Midnight Club Los Angeles. I had this on PS2 and PSP. Damnit Rockstar, bring this franchise back already!!!
Are the ps2 and the psp version much different?
@@layerp Textures are more bland, control is a little more complicated, and the load times are WAY longer. Still, to be able to have this game on the go was way worth it...
@@mathewm6294 on psp version of mc3,it don't have that motion blur crap unlike ps2 and og xbox version but ps2 and xbox still have more content on remix version
If R* combine the strong elements of MC3 with the strong elements of MC2 the we get the ultimate racing game.
@Christian C., Need for Speed Underground 1 and 2, Hot Pursuit, Hot Pursuit 2010, Most Wanted (2005)/Black Edition, Carbon/Collector's Edition, Underground, and Heat, as well as the Test Drive Unlimited Trilogy (1, 2, and the upcoming Solar Crown), also had some good racing game elements. Some cues from Burnout would also be nice.
Yes, this is in my eyes the best racing game ever made
... waiting for that Forza Motorsport 4 review though my man
About bloody time! Haha
Glad you enjoyed it, this is what our childhoods were made of.
I just love the consistency and high quality of your reviews. Great Job
This is simply..........
*The Greatest Game Of All Time*
It's nearly a super power to remain blinkless for an entire circuit race. I played a lot of this. I'd say I'm about 30k blinks behind others of my age group that didn't get into MC3 RM.
These old game reviews are amazing! I've been watching almost every video you've released since I've found your channel. Thanks for making amazing videos.
midnight club (ORIGINAL ONE) is how i found your channel, and this video is why i subscribed!
Good thing you kept checking the channel
Whenever "Modern Way Of Letting Go" plays I just empty my nos
I miss my Black, Roofchopped Chrysler 300CC with Gold Rims and Grill!
I miss my matte blacked out dodge magnum with matte black rims
This game is REALLY hard... at least the last time I played it.
Okay, so it's not just me? I just started playing the game for the first time in maybe a decade or longer, started a new career since I wanted to re-acclimate myself, and after the first three or four races the difficulty spike is insane! I'm still having fun and the nostalgia is real, but man... I don't remember it being this hard as a kid.
DavidRSAT As I got to the super cars, it became fucking impossible not to crash lol
Laughs in midnight club 2
I still haven't beaten it...
Whoever's equipped (including original equipment) , NTSC-U/C's MC II has online multiplayer and, via modding to connect online, MC3.
Growing up in Atlanta it was so cool to get dub edition when it came out. I knew all the locations and seeing places I had literally visited in game was so cool to me. I get the same enjoyment playing gta5 now that I’ve lived out in SoCal past 10 years.
you're too right. when i was little, i geeked out when i saw the vortex restaurant in real life. didnt see the coca cola plaza though
The music, the cars the atmosphere everything was on point on this game! I played the hell out of this game when i was a kid! Still play it sometimes. I have all the music playlist and now i listen to it in real life while im driving
Your reviews are great! Been waiting for this one. Was happy to see this in my feed
I didn't appreaciate the song selection when I was younger, but now I think it's amazing
Thank you bro !!! And congratulations on 50k !!!!!
Great review, I really like midnight club 3, I think it's the best racing game to this day but I'm very excited to see you review Los Angeles too. Anyway amazing content
Im loving all your videos! Seeing a notification of your upload is like what a child feels in a Christmas morning
ayy I've been waiting for this
midnight club 3 was fantastic I got lost in this game as a kid and still play it now and then on the emulator, it's really fun
Awesome! I had been waiting for this video! Soo hyped to see it!
How ironic, you uploaded this video right when I was listening to Ash's Meltdown! (the album), haha. I love this review like the rest of them, keep up the good work mate.
Thank you so much I've been waiting for this one since I subbed
What a perfectly illustrated review. You got everything spot on here although I’ve got to say it’s my favourite racing game of all time. Subbed my g
I've never owned this game but I'd play it every time I was over at a friend's house. It's the music I remember the most.
Superb video as always man!!! Thanks, any toughts on the GRID series?
I was given Midnight Club 3 Remix as a birthday present back in 2006-7. For the 9 year old me it was too difficult and couldn't go further than 70%. I took it to 100% this April because it was one of my favorite games.
I bought it 3 times, 2 on PS2 because of scratched DVD and one as a PS Classic. Totally worth it.
Been waiting for this for ages!! Congratulations on 50k man
My goodness brother are you okay your teeth are so large your gums look swollen
Yes, i clicked so fast on this notification, awesome video as always
MC3 is an awesome game, i recently started playing the remix version, i only played the original in the ps2 and the psp version, (which btw was also good just had some of the longest load times of a psp game)
This whole series was amazing ❤ But when i was a kid my favourite to play was midnight club 2.
This video helped me discover your channel lol I love this game
Congrats on 50k🔥❤️
These videos are so amazing!
Yes finally ( but you should have put this out before i ordered a ps2 copy lol ) anyways keep up the great work man I love your videos.
The thing about damage to licensed cars is unfortunaly true,even to this day and is one of the reasons why working with licensed cars is such a pain in the ass and why several big racing titles have such simple damage models.
My first racing game and I loved it in ps2
You should give Juiced Hot Import Nights 2 a go 'u'.
I remember when playing this game if I ever had a particularly slick race and won it that I would spend a lot of time watching it over and over again in the replay because this games reply system was awesome. And I always did it listening to either Jupiter Jazz or Sex In Zero Gravity because it made the replay that much more hype.
6:57 - "Imagine Midnight Club 3 on the RAGE Engine"
Well... it is! Kinda...
The Angel Studios (R* San Diego) Midnight Club engine was their only proprietary engine at the time, as all GTA's until GTAIV used the third-party RenderWare and later the MC engine basically became the foundation for the RAGE engine as they partenered with NaturalMotion to do the amazing Euphoria Physics engine.
So a bit of a trivia there.
I cannot tell you how good this time of my life was I was 15 I had all the gtas on the shelf gt3 and 4 mgs2 snake eater , nfs underground 2 and 1 , all the top games max Payne. None of this bullshit half a game battle royal crap 💩 take us back please. I can say I was alive at the pinnacle of gaming.
That 2003/4/5 is king! Through in SSX, Pro Evo and all the killer ps2 1st party games and it was an incredible 18 months or so. Nowadays doesn't come close
I've beaten this game four times. Twice on the original, and twice on Remix, all 100%. I can say every single playthrough was an absolute joy and it still remains my absolute favourite racing game to date. My absolute favourite thing about this game was how it teased you with the Lambo Murcielago throughout the career like "oh you want this? you know you want this. keep playing and you might get it". It was a goal that you absolutely wanted to work towards because who doesn't want to own a sick Lambo in their garage?
Great game, easily one of the best PS2 games I've played.
I need another playthrough of this game. Absolutely loved it when I was a kid. The years when spinning rims were cool haha
I realy love your videos, keep up the good work!
Awesome!! I am just playing through this game for the first time ever. Much more challenging than I expected, and an awesome game!
Another great review from colourshed! I'd be happy to see a review of Juiced one day.
Great reviews underrated channel
I've been so hyped for this
one of my favorite racing games and one of my favorite reviewers combined into one video 👌
I'd really enjoy seeing you review Auto Modelista! Definitely more obscure than the other ones but I think it fits that era you've been revisiting really nicely and its a gorgeous game!
It's been way too long since I played Midnight Club. Time to start the series up again from the beginning, just like you did. Tomorrow after work, it's me, MC and my PlayStation 2! Thanks. :)
Great review, by the way. Interested to see what the next one will be!
YEEEEE!! Can't wait for the MCLA review.
Great video, brings back memories. Would be cool to see SRS (Street Racing Syndicate) as a follow up.
I replay this game about two weeks ago I can tell, you can't really blink. you blink you lose.
I love ur videos
Keep it up
THANK YOU AND THE COMMENT SECTION for this review and the comments. They literally brought tears to my eyes as the review was exactly what I thought of the game and the community shares my feelings. This game has a special place in me with its game play, soundtrack, and the frustration it brought upon me when I was trying to beat a f- race for an hour and the feeling of accomplishment was priceless. I dont care if its a remaster or a whole new game its one of my dreams to play a game on this level today which is made by R*. Especially the cars and the customizations..... man I miss it....
MC3 is probably one of my favorite games of all times. The customization, the unique choice of many cars, and how face-paced the races it makes it a unique experience compared to many others, even MCLA because in this game, you actually FEELS that you're going very fast around 250-300 mph
The sad thing about this review is you missed a feature not available in Career mode; Powerups and Capture The Flag.
The powerups in this game are BANANAS. You get your average stop and reverse control powerups, then there's Disruptor that BLINDS YOU! And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Snowtato XL WHOA I had no idea these existed
Dude, you just made a pun on accident! How, you ask? Well there is a power up in arcade mode (the place where these gamemodes are) where you can freeze another opponent and they have basically NO control over their car and they keep sliding in the direction they were driving until the power up wears off.
P.S. the pun was made when you said "Just the tip of the iceberg"
P.P.S. yes I know that it's just a figure of speech
@@enoztheprotogenshadeyboii7074 ah yeah the Ice, i pick that powerup the most
Only if Rockstar didn't remove it from the PSN store on PS3..or put it on PS4 digitally..
Not buying it when I had the chance was one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made on PS3. I know they replaced it with Remix but me and my bro are fans of the vanilla version. So many memories of being thrown through the air with pulse. 😂
I was just about to go to sleep but you just had to upload this. lol keep up the reviews (saints row 4 better be next)
IMO mc3 had better gameplay, but i hate that they got rid of the personalities of the rivals, i love 2 more but 3 was definitely good
Yeah I found the same too. MC3 was great but I just liked MC2 because of the personalities and the little cut scenes.
The tracks itself were also very creative. I remember every single of of them even today. These matches perfectly to the opponent itself. The albanese guy named Fard drove races in the catacombs of Paris because he was a wellknown criminal. The perfekt escape car was his little Renault Clio because of the narrow streets. Then he also was very amused that you won his Renault. The police would rather chase you than him. "Watch yourself tourist. Hahaha." The cars also has different handlings, different speed etc.
The characters and cutscenes were cheesy but added much personality.
Meh
Man, I remember playing through this game back then as a kid...it was the most difficult racing game I ever played and the tuning is just so fun in that game (I've played the Remix version of course ^^). Just a childhood game which will have a place in my heart :D
this was actually the last game i played on my original xbox before it conked out and stopped reading disks. 100%'ed it and is still a game i wish i could play again some day. Cemented my love for the MC series as a whole.
I played this game for hundreds of my childhood hours. I think i completed it 3 times. This time was wonderful, not only because of all the races you could take part in, but also because of map exploration. Just cruising around was so much fun back then.
Nice man, I grew up with this on the PSP. Good ass game and reminds me of better times.
LOVED this friggin game! Thank you!
I nearly screamed when you put that PS2 Dub edition REMIX on screen!!! That game was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm at work at the moment lol
one of my favorite racing games ever
17:02
2 Fast 2 Furious reference
I remember playing this on my psp when I was like, 8 or 9, I miss it,
Hoooooo boy, nostalgia has never felt better! I remember I didn’t have a memory card when I played this, so I always had to start from the beginning of the career. I never got very far so it didn’t matter.
I think a good spiritual successor to the Midnight Club series would be Forza, but specifically Forza Horizon. I haven't played the most recent one yet, but 2 and 3 were both highly enjoyable, arcade-y, and have TONS of customization.
You forgot to mention "Roar" a ability in Midnight Clib 3
Wow. Color me impressed. Can't believe I didn't play this game growing up, because it looks like some serious fun.
Best race is called Big Air in Atlanta. Extra fun on a sport bike
looking back at it, it was a really difficult game. i've always loved it ever since i got it as a birthday present (i believe?) when i was 8. in fact, i had a fit of rage due to this game and accidentally broke my PSP, but that's another story. if we could see a remaster of this game being ported to pc, that'd be a dream come true, but that's up to rockstar.
I grew up playing this game on ps2 and it always had that early 2000s feel and aroma to it. Even the box art looks like it came from 2001.
I played both the Xbox and the PS2 Ports and I have to say the Xbox port is better, even though R* got lazy and kept the same limitations and graphics from the PS2 port and I knew that right after I noticed that just as the garage screen starts to fade in the the triangle and the cross from the PS2 port will appear for a split second and then immediately switch to A and B.
The frame rate is kinda the same when racing just not as bad as the PS2 when there's a lot of traffic onscreen and just a little less laggy when it's raining or snowy so that makes it a little better, so if you have the OG Xbox you should definitely get it but if you already have it for the PS2 then you shouldn't because the only deference is that the Xbox port has:
Way better frame rate in the garage
Widescreen support
480p support (I think because it doesn't say it)
Faster loading time (with no music in the background for some reason)
That's it really, both ports are playable and can be finished so that's why it wouldn't matter if you already have it for the PS2.
No music during loading! Thats what made the best loading screen of its time, the music made the loading enjoyable and not boring or annoying, unlike most other games of its time
Vaibhav Mamle agreed
I beat it back in the day. I remember breaking a controller once I got to the Supercars. It's an incredible racing game, and I love playing it over. You can also download this on PS3.
i still remember playing this on the psp all the time 13 or so years ago .. what a time
13:56 Im pretty sure, unless I am remembering incorrectly, that muscle cars had a roar ability, not agro, which sent out a shockwave that just pushed everything out of the way.
I loved the muscle cars in this game, so I used that all the time lol
You are correct sir
Absolute masterpiece. I’ve been playing all sorts of old racing games and this was by far the best one.
