I grew up playing the game on my PS2 back in the 2000's and only recently I found out there was a PSP version and it's literally the full game.

Seeing as how even a few 3D DS games have achieved 60fps (and oh, what a difference it makes there), it's hard to watch a system with so much horsepower get throttled by even a game as hefty as this. Hydraulics are still available for bouncing, and the more useful weight shifting is also on the layout. There are even other vehicles, including trucks and motorcycles that you can customize the crap out of. Still, I encourage you to pick Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition up and give your dusty PSP something to play, even with the load time issue. A large number of Detroit techno artists are also featured on the soundtrack, reflecting the game's setting.Tuning your vehicle for drift factor, traction and friction bias let you get the control response right for how you want it (and thankfully, you don't have to load out to the garage to tweak these aspects. There is the occasional mismatched road texture in a race start glamour shot, but that's too rare and fleeting to worry about. You've seen big-name games cut down to fit the system, and other big-name games ported almost pixel-for-pixel to the handheld. Some of the functions of the console game got shoved in where they fit in, but all of the special moves and car functions are still in the PSP game. Ridge Racer didn't make much use of its analog properties, Need For Speed felt squirrelly and hard to steer precisely, and Twisted Metal: Head-On just flat-out lost it when it came to steering on that nub.

A minute-long wait would have been irritating, but if everything else played right there in the game without loading, it'd be a great bus-trip game. We've railed against this issue elsewhere -- we've even knocked a few otherwise enjoyable PSP game for making us wait. On the other hand, if you had asked me at any time on the first day that I played this game what I thought of it, I would have told you that I found it to be a busted port of a game that has no business being on PSP. Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition has more speed, more choices, and more chrome than any game has ever packed under the hood.The PSP in your hands melts away and you’re transformed into the drivers’ seat of whatever ride you choose.

At first, I was winning a lot of races by five seconds, but in later races I was lucky if I was winning by more than a half a second, even when driving without fault. The game includes an online mode, where players can race with other players from all around the world. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. You’ll spend a lot of your time in the in-depth career mode where you’ll find yourself (not surprisingly) racing to become one of the top street racers.Players race through open world recreations of San Diego, Atlanta, and Detroit listening to 98 (124 in the Remix version) licensed music tracks that include hip hop, rock, and other genres. Timing the game for regular play use, loads and races and all, only hit the battery for a four hour straight runtime. The same goes for multiplayer -- if you want to challenge an opponent to a rematch, most modes require you to reload the whole game every time.
