| Summary: Good game to rent... but not really to buy!
79
The game resembles the console versions in many ways. Lots of the races, parts and cars are almost exact. The game runs at a little bit of a slow framerate that you will get used to. The menus in the garage are the worst though. The game controls very easily with all cars being automatic. Like the console version, you can fully customize your controls. The only thing I dislike about the controls is having to press up to start a race. As for the races, they're almost all short and good for portable gaming, with the exception of a tournament or two.
It is a pretty fun game. If you had fun with the console version of MC3, then you will most certainly have fun with the portable version.
The graphics are pretty good. They tend to get a little edgy at times, but you don't really pay attention to it alot. The only things that bother me are the blurring and low framerate. But once you race for an hour or so, you get used to it.
AAAAAaaah! The sound of the screeching tires when burning out is annoying! It is almost always the same sound too! And can get very repetetive! But other than that, the games sound effects seem OK. The music is great, and I think the same as the console version too. The only downside is that you cannot customize your music playlist!
Almost non-existant. The game is fun and all, but in my opinion, neither the console version or the portable version have any replay value after beating the game. The console versions were a little fun to play online, but without the use of headsets, I guess Rockstar didnt feel the need to incorporate an online feature. They could have at least added the ability to download extra content, which would have been a very neat feature indeed!
After giving it thought, I have come to the conclusion of a 79/100. Yes the game is fun, and can be entertaining for a couple of days. But after beating the game, there isnt much left to do. The framerate and sound issues along with the long loading times make the game an annoyance. You do get somewhat used to these issues, but they still hurt the game in the long-run. I suggest renting this game, and seeing how you like it first.

Well I love it! he load times don't bother me that much, I just wish that I would have to 'confirm' that I am ready to race once it does load up.
The graphics are amazing, loved when I drove through the stadium, very cool. Sparks are great as well and I see no lag. Can't wait to play more!!

This game is soooooo sweet! I can't put it down!
I love the fact that I am racing a car with Ohio tags that are personalized like mine, can't wait to get the Dodge Ram and have it look exactly the same!
Loads times are not a problem, I just come here and pass the time, and if you need to re-race it pulls it right back up.
Any ideas where all the "RS" icons are hiden? I have found only 2 cruising around so far.
