If you want to win tune your ride right! You don't need a cool paint job to win you need speed, speed and more speed!

There are many mixed reviews talking about how this game is hard and they can not win races let me tell you, if you give yourself more horse power and stop trying to add ground effects, paint jobs, tinted windows to your ride you will win! Oh you can always restart the race learn the route and do the race again.
Ok first things first your car, pick the 1998 Nissan 240SX win your first race and when you enter the garage for the first time sell it and buy the 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco now all you do is add the upgrades that increase the power and the handling. Now go race or should I say go GRIND for cash and before long you will have a car that wins a lot and some cash in the bank to buy a new car.
Thats what I did. I bought the Scirocco and just maxed out the speed and the handling and I win races. Also if you have a basic car don't race red races go with the green races. I now can win every green race with at least a 10 car lead and only use my nitrous if I make a mistake or just want to have some fun. I think if you concentrate on fixing up your first ride just for speed and forget about looks you will be successful!
The graphics are awesome and I am enjoying the races. It is more of a challenge if you compare it to MC3. I think thats a good thing. The police are awesome in this game too better then the ones in MC3. In MC3 you would hear the sirens and maybe see the cops but they would never ever catch you nor try to stop you furthermore; if you were just cruising the city the cops are not even there but in MC:LA they will come after you. So now the police in MC:LA have a brain and they will really try to catch you thats very cool and fun.
Yes this game is almost like all of the other MC games but its online, has better graphics and its has a longer learning curve. And you call this a BAD thing?!
If you like the other MC before you will cream over this one! If you never played any of the MC before your missing out on a fun game.
Now if I may make one comparison Burnout Paradise is not as fun as Midnight Club LA. I think these games are comparable they are both racers and on that level I can continue. I owned Burnout Paradise and after 10 hours I was bored I was not very thrilled with the game, Midnight Club LA does a better job of a full city with races everywhere. Better cars, better music and overall better game! DUDE its ROCKSTAR!
