Midnight Club: LA – South Central DLC

The new DLC for Midnight Club: Los Angeles is out now.  I came out Thursday (March 19, 2009).  There are two parts to the DLC one free and the other pay.  The free one gives you a new part of the map to drive around.  The pay one gives you new 9 new vehicles, parts, races and missions.  Download the free map add on the other day and tried it out today (March 22, 2009).  When I first booted up the game I wasn’t to sure if the map was bigger.  So I went online to see if it worked.  I was some of the new cars and the new map.   The new map is nice looking.  Raced a few races to check it out.  I like the fact that RockStar Games gives out free DLC along the the pay.

Midnight Club: LA DLC

It looks like there is going to be some DLC for Midnight Club: LA.   The cool thing is there well be a free and pay content.  It is called South Central Upgrade and Content pack.  The Upgrade will adding a new area to the map.  That will be about one-third the size of the original.  This will be free.  The content is the one you will have to pay for.  That will give you new races, competitions, cars/bikes and music.  According the article will be be out some time early this year.  I like when game companies put out free DLC along with pay.  I have yet to buy any DLC content or online games for that matter.  There must be a big market for the pay DLC because game makers keep put them out.

Midnight Club: Los Angeles Review

I guess I should get around to writing a review for Midnight Club: LA since I have for a few weeks now.  Visual the game is unreal.  The cars are top notch.  There is lots to customize inside and out.  The only thing you can’t seem to customize is the exhaust on the motorcycles.  The one down side to the game is it can be very difficult.  Like wanting to smash your controller difficult.  Which make it hard to get money.  How ever there are lots of other types of races and what not to get money and Rep.  The more Rep you get the more money you can win and it unlocks parts and cars to buy.

This is a fun game that can be very difficult.  For being frustrating at times I can only give it a.

4 out of 5 GT (GT = Good Times)

Midnight Club: LA Rides

One the cool things you can do in Midnight Club: LA is take pictures of your rides and upload them to Rockstars Games Social Club.  So I decide to give it a try.  Only took  three pictures.  The bike looks much different now.  It has a new tank, rear end and wheels.  The Camaro has a bit of work done to it.  I forget what the 3rd car is.  Doesn’t look that great, but it is suped up.  LOL

Finely Got Midnight Club: Los Angeles

Wal-Mart finely had Midnight Club: LA in today.  I only got to played an hour and half so far.  It looks great that’s for sure.   The map is huge.  And it seems a lot hard then the last game.  Or it could just me not being good at games.  There are police chase this time around.  When they first came after me, a pop-up saying out mover them and you can get away.  Well I tried for 7 minutes and ended up getting arrested.  The fine was $1,300.00, there goes all the money I had won.  To get around this I found a tip on a message board.  I’ll have to give it a try.

1. Pause the game and enter the Race Editor
2. Press “Select” to go into Layout mode
3. fly to where you want
4. exit the race editor.

I’ll have a full review once I had more time to play.

Still No Midnight Club: LA

So I went to Wal-Mart again today to see if they had Midnight Club: LA.  And they still don’t have it.  Which sucks.  Check out Future Shop’s website was well, they don’t have it either.  I know the game is out.  The website says it out,  there are ads on TV and GameSpot.com has there review up.  They say it is frustrating and hard, but still a good game.  The last game were like that too.  If they don’t have it tomorrow, just might have to order it online.

Midnight Club: Los Angeles Release Trailer

It looks like Midnight Club: Los Angeles is out now.   So they put out a new trailer.  Went to Wall-Mart today after work to see if they had it.  But nope.  No surprise there.  I’ll take a look again tomorrow.  I hope they do, this game looks awesome.  Gamespot.com had a high rez version here.

Multiplayer Modes in Midnight Club: LA

There is new info on the multiplayer modes in Midnight Club: Los Angeles. There seems to be a lot of modes.  Of course they they circuit races, ordered, unordered races and Landmark race.  Which sounds cool.  What that is a race across the city to a specific landmark and the first one there wins.  There are battle modes.  Which consist of different forms of capture the flag and keepaway. They all so have online cruise and a race editor.  The race editor lets you set waypoints and save it so it can be used in the cruise race queue.
