Four new Top of the Pops shots up for grabs from Rockstar's raunchy racer

Nov 27, 2007

We think you'll agree, the latest in Rockstar's underground street racing series is shaping up quite nicely. We've already got up close to the game and initial signs were all good. Thesenew screens will give you a taste of what all the fuss is about.

Graphically at least, Midnight Club: LA looks even better than GTA IV. Running on the same RAGE engine that powers all of Rockstar's next-gen games, the San Diego division has managed to create a free-roaming racer of such scale that... well, we can't quite believe it took them less than a few years to develop.

Unlike the fictitious parody of Liberty City, Midnight Club's Los Angeles is an impressive recreation of the buildings and streets - going right down to individual shops and hotels.
