Truthfully, we didn't get to see more than a few minutes' worth of racing, but we did get to see actual gameplay. Here we got to see a good amount of pedestrian traffic and some extremely fast racing action as the game's refurbished graphics engine strutted its stuff. We saw the game's slick-looking menu system followed by some racing through the late-night streets of Detroit. An Xbox version is also in development, though there are no plans for a PC version at this time. We were able to see the PlayStation 2 version of the game. We had the chance to take a brief look at an early work-in-progress version of the game to get a taste of what to expect. However, in addition to those expected sequel elements, Rockstar is tossing in a healthy dose of style thanks to its partnership with DUB Magazine, an automotive lifestyle publication that has been very influential in the rap and hip-hop traditions. This latest entry in the series, once again developed by Rockstar San Diego, builds on the previous entries in the series with the same refined graphics and gameplay. The subtitle of the game refers to its affiliation with the influential DUB Magazine, which is providing creative consultation on the project.
Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition will be the first entry in this street racing series to feature real-world licensed vehicles.
The addition of online play to the mix helped keep the franchise evolving as well. The second entry in the series expanded to the Xbox and PC as well as the PS2, and it stayed true to the original game's formula of open-street racing. At the time, street racing hadn't quite made the splash like it has in the racing genre lately, so the game was viewed as a stylish and unique arcade racer that served as a fine showcase for the newly minted PlayStation 2's power.
Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition is the recently announced third entry in Rockstar Games' street racing franchise, which originally debuted on the PlayStation 2 in 2000 as part of the first wave of PS2 games.
