If there was a Midtown Madness 4...

Postby carmaniac » Sat Jul 07, 2012 11:18 am

I think it would have over 80 licensed cars (the fastest one being a Bugatti if they got the license XD).
It would also have 3 cities which are: Las Vegas (U.S), Birmingham (U.K) and Madrid (Spain)
It would have the same races like checkpoint etc.
Multiplayer would have Cops N Robbers, Capture the Flag, Getaway and much more.
Also a crash course, too. :P

And I hope it's more like MM1 gameplay-wise.

I don't think they would do Birmingham...

Better to use cities like Sydney, Berlin, Roma, Denver or something like that. However, I think it should have all the original cars from mm1, 2 and 3, but with better graphics and some new cars added. And it should have a "retro-city". That would be the way it is in the mario kart series. They use the best city from an older mm game but they improve the graphics and make the city bigger. Also multiplayer should be improved, there should be traffic!

I agree with Nial. It would be awesome for them to make a remake, with the same cars AND cities, including Chicago and NYC. They should add some new cars, too, like bugatti and Ferrari and Lamborghini, and every major brand that MM2 missed. They should also have Washington DC and Paris, and yeah, maybe Madrid also.

The most important thing- they should make it for PC. It would be good if they make physics more realistic, such as better damage effects, etc, etc. But... probably there won't be something like MM4 :vsad:

I don't know about the others, but I play mm1. The only reason I don't like it as much is because of the lack of cars and a second city. It's hard to convert good looking cars from forza for the game too, because the game need low-poly cars. If it had forza addons, I would play it more.

Yeah, it's too bad that MM1 doesn't have as much stuff. :/

I have a feeling that they would do Tokyo.

Good old advantages of being a cop :P But really, if MS doesn't want to continue MM3, give it to us! :P

The Midtown Madness series is forgotten now (but we have never forgot it and some other active MM fan websites) but the others are all interested in Need For Speed, Forza, Gran Turismo and GTA now...
Where did the good ol' days go?

It's end to itself say what features an hyphotetic next Midtown Madness series game would have, the important is keep the typical feeling of the series, like Midtown Madness 3 kinda succeeded to do IMO. I'm thinking this: if Microsoft will dig up the idea to make a new game of this series, it'll be an exclusive title for the lanch of the next Xbox console (release planned probably for 2013). I would say that's neither 100% sure that it would be called Midtown Madness 4, because the old series reboots or however the use of already used names look to be the normality nowadays, but so far it's especially done by EA Games (e.g.: new SimCity, NFS Hot Pursuit, next NFS Most Wanted, Syndicate; another example is the new Tomb Raider). Agree with Carmaniac, just look at how the racing games are made nowadays, that are less original and there's a less variety of titles released than past.
Unfortunately it's well visible that Microsoft has closed about the PC platform since when it has its console and it's getting success, in the latest years it has releaed for PC only the pretty poor free-to-play Microsoft Flight, minimally paragonable to the old Flight Simulator series.

Microsoft in the good ol' days: We make good games and operating systems!
(But Windows 98 and ME were a total failure.)

Microsoft now: MONEY MONEY MONEY MICROSOFT POINTS MONEY MONEY FORZA FORZA THIS DOWNLOAD REQUIRES 2000 MORE MICROSOFT POINTS MONEY MONEY BUGGY UPDATES KINECT KINECT- I think you get the idea.

Windows 98 wasnt failure at all.. it was even more stable than what came out after that (ME and 2000.)

If you would like to see what MM4 might look like, probably it will use that shitty MM3 engine... good on you Microsoft. Or worse, it will be like the Motocross Madness title released not so long ago.
