Midtown Madness 3

Midtown Madness 3 is the third game in Microsoft's city racing franchise. It features 40 Blitz and Checkpoint races, a career mode titled "Work Undercover" which spans 54 varied missions (from racing to driving a pizza car to taking control of an armored bank truck), and a complete online mode that allows you to challenge players over Xbox Live. There are two cities to choose from, both modeled after their real counterpart: Paris and Washington D.C. Paris is the more open-ended city, great for beginners, while Washington features lots of narrow streets, sharp and hairpin turns, and various other distractions. There are over thirty licensed vehicles to choose from, from a Lotus Esprit Turbo to a real-life garbage truck. Each vehicle has its own different characteristics, including speed, handling and acceleration. Over Xbox Live, you can compete in a variety of game modes: Capture the Gold: similar to Capture the Flag. Hunter: two players are cops, while the rest are normal vehicles. When a cop rams you, you become a cop. The last person left to be pulled over is the winner. Tag: same thing as the childhood game. One car is "it", while the others have to avoid them. Midtown Madness 3 supports voice chat, and allows you to download extra content via Xbox Live.
