Midtown Madness 3 - Screens og info

For drøye 14 dager siden kunne vi fortelle at Midtown Madness 3 er på vei til Xbox. Nå har vi mottatt nye bilder og mer info om spillet!

Det er som nevnt i den tidligere nyheten, svenske Digital Illusions som står for utviklingen og det antas at spillet vil være klart for salg i løpet av høsten 2002. Denne gangen er det Washington, D.C.'s og Paris' gater som skal tuktes, men om det dreier seg om en realististisk gjenskapelse av bybildet, vet vi ikke, men håper det selvfølgelig! Her er to nye screenshots fra spillet, etterfulgt av et utdrag av pressemeldingen:

Set in two of the most vibrant cities in the world, Paris and Washington, D.C., the game features madcap, over-the-top racing and driving in a fully interactive world. With more than 30 licensed vehicles to choose from, from flashy sports cars to massive utility vehicles, gamers will be treated to fast-paced, high-energy, unrestrained action and adventure.

"‘Midtown Madness 3’ builds on the hugely successful legacy of the ‘Midtown Madness’ franchise and allows gamers to experience the rush and thrill of madcap, over-the-top racing," said Pete Parsons, director of marketing for Microsoft Game Studios. "Licensed vehicles and fully-detailed renditions of Paris and Washington D.C. add to the driving excitement and make ‘Midtown Madness 3’ a must-have game."

"Midtown Madness 3" provides something for both the hardcore and casual gamer. With three challenging single race modes, Blitz, Checkpoint and Cruise, gamers will experience ambient traffic, pedestrians and voice-over effects particular to neighborhoods.

The competitive and innovative Career mode provides racers with an opportunity to assume various careers, undertaking a variety of missions as they navigate through the wide-open urban environments. To proceed through the career ladders, drivers must use their vehicles and driving skill as their greatest allies, experiencing a depth of experience that can only be found on Xbox.
