Remember the first one back at the release of PS2? Wasnt all that good, in fact i dont think it was good at all.

Well there finally making a sequel to it, and little was known to me, but as SR say, its made by Rockstar who, as we know, have come along way recently in terms of the games that they make.

Midnight 2 has already had its likeness compared to both Burnout and GTA, which you have to admit are too very good games, and if this game can come anywhere between the two, then we could have a very good game on our hands here.

The graphics dont look all that bad either!

Still a fair way to release though.

Thats not a brilliant way to view things though. There have been many games that havent been all that good, and yet the sequel was fantastic. I found this with the likes of Burnout. I hated the first game and thought it was rubbish. The second game came out and its fantastic. Improved in everyway possible. Destruction Derby did the same thing, as did many many more games.

Midnight 2 has the potential to be something very good and very big, and seems to be shaping up well too.

I was in town today and looked in a few gaming shops. Checking the low prices sections in them all, i notice a little known game called Midnight Club. Guess how much for?

£4:99

Guess thats saying more than enough about that version, other games the same age as it like Tekken Tag were still for sale at around £10 aswell.

I agree with Pro Evo on this one and some of the others. This game could be very promising. Rockstar have now establish themselves as a pretty big company with the GTA series, so they have now a reputation, and one i think that they are not going to want to really damage. So i would have thought the generally standard of there games that are to follow now would start to improve. Other than the GTA series, i dont recall many other games that have been much cop, though i may have missed them. There was State Of Emergency, but that really wasnt for me.

The first Midnight game wasnt that good really though, im hoping that this one is going to be better.

Lets hope so! :-)

Basing my opinion partailly on SR's article I think we will all be in for a surprise. It looks as if you can ride on motorbikes and if the people at Rockstar have seen "Fast and the Furious", I'm sure we'll have something special at our hands.

The first one as you said Pro Evo wasn't very impressive, but look at Burnout compared to Burnout 2, it improved massively so who's saying the same can't happen with Midnight Club 2?

I'll be watching out for it

But isnt that what The Getaway is meant to be?

And look how well it seems that will be recieved? :D

Midnight Club, from what i can tell, is mainly a racing game, so i see thats how its going to be perceived.

I really dont see how you can make that sort of judgement at this stage at all. For all we know it could be one of the best racing games to come out for a while. But of course on the other hand it could be the complete opposite.

Its still far too early to see what side of the barrier this game will swing to.

State Of Emergancy was great. MC 1 was poor, but I liked the idea. Who knows, it may be worth a purchase, but I only see a 7/10 at the most.
