Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition is the best "get your roll on" racing game. If you like street racing, don't shy away.
So which is better? If you're a DUBed owner you'll be happy to know you posses the best game in the genre right now. Not only does DUBed have more customization features, but it's also the funnest street racer I've played, as well as having the best user interface.
What makes DUBed so much better than the competition? It's just plain fun. The street racing genre is all about the feeling of speed and excitement while racing and DUBed delivers on this promise. Not only does it do all that but you'll be listening to great tunes the whole time.
Whether you like rap or rock or even techno DUBed has it and has it plenty. One of the things I found myself doing quite often was just driving around the city listening to the music and interacting with the cars without even racing. The only other time I've done that was with Grand Theft Auto, which interestingly enough, the same people that made GTA made DUBed.
If you can count on nothing else, it's that Rockstar knows how to deliver on making games fun. Who else would even attempt to make a ping pong game? While you won't find anything as earth shattering or reinventing in DUBed as you will in other Rockstar games, what is here is a solid, well thoughtout, and executed street racer.
The graphics are tight, the cities are immersive, the races are challenging and fun. Be warned though, if you're looking for an accurate representation of driving, look at Forza Motorsports or Gran Turismo. You can plow through trees at 160mph and hardly slow down in DUBed. No the controls and driving are definately more for fun than realism. Is that a problem? Not for me. I personally much perfer street racers over driving sims.
If you're looking to have fun with a racing game, DUBed gets my highest honors to date.
