DAY N NITE

A new midnight club or a remake of midnight club street racing would be good

Based chevy chad dabbing on Crown Vic incels.

my daily driver is a Grand Marquis so I can't reject the big blue oval yet

R* Sand Diego is not allowed to make anymore since the wives against rockstar thing 10 years ago.

>remake of midnight club street racing
but MC:SR was just a Midtown Madness game. Midnight Club only became Midnight Club from 2 onwards.

tuning culture doesn't have mainstream appeal anymore, even fast and furious movies are heist movies now, and these games existed thanks to the first fast and furious movie

HOUSE REAL BIG
CARS REAL BIG

What is this junk

Been playing some MC3 lately. Man that game's still great but the framerate was killing me.

Because gaming has become a business, there's no point in investing a new game when your existing products already bring you in profits with minimal effort. As much as I want a new MC game, there's no way they're gonna make one.
Street racing culture has seen a resurgence in the last 3 or 4 years thanks to Initial D (and in a minor part, Wangan Midnight) getting a new wave of popularity. Just check the modding scene for Assetto Corsa, there's a fuckton of touges and even a large scale recreation of the Tokyo Shuto Expressway, all of this on top of regular racetrack and cars you'd expect in a racing sim.

>Street racing culture has seen a resurgence in the last 3 or 4 years thanks to Initial D (and in a minor part, Wangan Midnight)
they're much less popular than they seem

>Because gaming has become a business
yeah, more than 40 years ago

Why didn't they use the police scanner from this game in GTA V? Sounded much better and more realistic.

What the fuck was up with that huge difficulty spike? It is legit harder than Dark Souls.

Now more than ever though, remember when there was a time in which devs actually experimented?
Between the late 90s and early 2000s every software house apparently wanted a racing game under their name, Namco had Ridge Racer, Capcom came up with Auto Modellista, EA had NFS, hell, even Konami tried their hand at it with Enthusia.
Today we're left with racing sims and simcades true arcade racers are dead. NFS has been sucking dick for more than a decade now, Ridge Racer's attempted revival was a failure, there's a huge void and nobody to fill it.
It doesn't help that interest in cars is actually slowly dying down.

midnight club isn't some bullshit trial and error game like most "hard" games are. it's very fair and never fucks you over. the physics are consistent, the AI are consistent and the traffic will always leave a gap to pass through

fucks me off so much how people bitch about LA saying 3 was better. LA is such a good game and got shat on by people who just wanted something to bitch about, same as Burnout Paradise

i hope they're happy with killing the genre and leaving us with absolute trash like nu-NFS and boreza horizon

LA was garbage because it had a smaller roster then 3 remix and paradise was shit because it fell for the soulless open word meme

t. "LA was too hard and I have no sense of direction so got lost in Paradise City"
enjoy grinding loot crates in a racing game

are you kidding me? LA and paradise was piss easy

Reminder that LA sold well enough to green lit a sequel and that they were working on it as soon as LA shipped but rockstar ny forced every one in the San Diego branch to either help in RDR or get the boot
The whole team in San Diego got the boot anyway after RDR shipped :^)

> he had an one liner for every race
> different animations depending to what where you doing with your car
If you use nitro to accelerate he looks confident, but if you use nitro at top speed in a fast car to get a speed boost he looks like he is gonna shit his pants

I loved this game on 360, so good.

I think I have that song in my library because of it actually.

Horizon has nothing on it.

one day emulators will reach a point we can play MCLA on PC at 1080p 60fps

right bros? right?

I love MCLA, but MC3 Dub remix is my favorite racing game ever made. Up there with Burnout 3 and FlatOut 2.

i really liked LA but i still think 3 was better because the levels where more designed for fun racing rather than just realism, LA had no rooftops you could drive on

Attached: maxresdefault.jpg (1280x720, 65K)

LA had loads of rooftops and big jumps lad
they were actually hidden and effective shortcuts like mc2 but not in plain sight like MC3
maybe you should explore la

ive got to admit, its been years since ive played LA for the last time
might just dust off the PS3 to play it again, see what ive missed

Just went back and played it again because of this thread and god damn I forgot how relentless the cops are. Fuck off already I just wanna race

just take the ticket man

I hope you're happy you killed my favourite video game series, Yea Forums. All because you didn't want to git gud.

sometimes there is a bug where you can't avoid the cops but otherwise they're easy to hide from

it adds to the challenge though

I somehow had this gather dust for 10 years then got a g25 and played it.
Fucking hell its amazing full ffb and it held up fucking well even on my ps3
Goat game.
Horizon 1 was good but 2 3 and 4 where just idk kinda soulless? Wish we had that perfect storm of ex r* and Nfs devs from the 00s come back and make a new game

I lost my R8 too, user. I never went and started working for it until years after the game came out, and my friend had the R8 and used it all the time.
then I finally worked towards it and unlocked it, and then shortly after the servers closed down on PS3 and there was no way to get the R8 anymore. i had made my R8 look like darius's from NFS carbon, it was perfect.
FUCK i want to go back

Still the best street racing game out there, I love style of events that just give you checkpoints and let you figure out the fastest route, made it really satisfying when you knew the city like the back of your hand.

makes NFS look archaic in comparison, with it still having streets closed by magic barriers during racing

the driving model is so much better too. and it also had a proper vinyl editor, which NFS wouldn't sport till 7 years later

Attached: m3replica.jpg (1920x1080, 270K)

i made that exact same car user
i also did it with the audi s5 but the widebody kit wasnt as thick

I'm still sad about the multiplayer being shut down. it was genuinely some of the most fun I ever had with an online game. I miss checking the auction and seeing all the cool designs people made

Holy shit are you me?

i still remember on PS3 some guys uploading cars from modded games that had Neon in the engine and donk sized wheels, and they would still be purchasable

>paradise was shit because it fell for the soulless open word meme

I understand being disappointed if you expected another track based burnout game, those were great, but paradise is one of the only open world racers to actually take advantage of the open world and give it a purpose other than just driving between races.

nigger it felt like you was driving through a nuclear wasteland truly soulless

we talking about the same game here?

is this supposed to look good?

Burnout legends
Ridge racer
Nfs carbon otc
Midnight club LA remix
Gran Turismo
Initial D street stage

It seems there are 2 Ridge Racer games for PSP. Which one would you say is better?

Oh I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about the game not about graphics. Yeah most games back then overused bloom and brown, who cares, the game was good.

>the game was good.
no it wasn't keep coping paradise-kun

Both are pretty good.

Is there a way to run PSP version for this game on phone? Mine lagged dropped framerate badly i kinda play monster hunter PSP but framerate is fine.

The second one is just the first but with more tracks and cars. Go for that one.

The fucking editor was so good. I still don't understand why the fuck didn't rockstar just copy and paste the editor into grand theft auto. Makes so mad. I used to make so much money selling my vinyls to

Is extreme stage already working on rcps3 yet?

Not him, but they didn't say it, a bunch of old Rockstar games got ESRB ratings for new consoles and some even got store listings on xbox live, though they got taken down quickly. That was two years ago.

it seems like those were only PS2 on PS4 re-releases and Xbox Original backwards compatibility with Xbox One.

From those games, only the GTA stories games got on PS2 on PS4

I really wish they would make another initial D console game.

its almost to scale with the real LA and features a lot of the landmarks and shit
even has massive billboards with real ads just like LA

Were these games anygood, from this era i only ever tried Need For Speed, which always felt terrible to me because of how bad the cars felt to control and burnout which felt amazing
Never tried midnight club though

lowriders if you have south central

Not him but also LA native and considering buying, it's like $10 on PS3
Does online still work?

No, it was closed on PS3 when GameSpy shut down

Whats the difference between base and complete editions of this game? is there a lot of dlc or does it not matter

this was the first game i pre ordered

I just remember the buzz about the game was it being mildly accurate to LA, which, me and all my local friends just laughed at (senior year of hs) but a friend had it on PSP, im sure that version was toned down a bit in terms of scale but id be keen on trying it someday, never touched a midnight club before

good game
>do a jump over a bridge and hit an invisible wall
had its flaws but very good fun

MC3 and MCLA were such great racing games

Just emulate wangan midnight.

it was piss easy. if you want difficulty play midnight club II, which is a better game anyways.

too bad R* is only about GTA and RDR now

The cost to make games have exploded. Back in the late 1990s you could make a game for $1 million with a team of maybe 15 people. MGS2 cost $10 million which was exorbitant. By 2008 or so it cost at least $30 million to make a multi platform game. EA dropped at least $100 million on Anthem and BFV and they’re both shit.

Not that $1 or $3 million is nothing but if the game tanks you could eat it up a lot easier. And if it’s a hit, I mean what’s $50 or $60 million of revenue against a $2 million budget. The business model encouraged putting out lots of stuff and trying new things to see what hit.

I went to school in LA and thought the game nailed the vibe of LA perfectly. Lots of landmarks but the feel of that weird enormous city was very well represented.

nah

if you want more variety in enemies play midnight club II

Man, that game was fucking hard, I could never finish it.

I still couldn't get too far in it because of the pinkslip event.
