 Gamer's Logik 4.0 - Midtown Madness 3 Review
Midtown Madness 3 is, quite simply, an absolute blast when played head-to-head against your fellow gamers the world over.
MM3 feels like it was built around Live, instead of it feeling like the main game was completed and Live play was just tacked on as an afterthought.
MM3 has an advantage over games like Ghost Recon and Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and even MotoGP, where there isn't so much pressure to do the best you can and not let your team down or hurt your ranking; MM3 is about having an absolute blast through and through even if you're screwing up.

 Midtown Madness 3 for Xbox Review - Xbox Midtown Madness 3 Review
Midtown Madness 3's online mode has been designed with ease of use in mind.
The other one-player modes are a little more in line with the Midtown Madness legacy, offering the ability to cruise the streets aimlessly, to participate in checkpoint races against the AI, or to engage in blitz races, which are checkpoint races against the clock.
The physics model and control found in Midtown Madness 3 seem to be designed to be about as far from a racing simulation as you can get.

 Midtown Madness 3 Review for Xbox - Gaming Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Midtown Madness 3's single player game is your typical racing game, slightly average and nothing special, but where it really comes into its own is during Xbox Live play.
Midtown Madness 3, like all good Xbox titles, supports the custom HD soundtrack option.
If you have Xbox Live, I recommend Midtown Madness 3 without hesitation, but those of you without access to the Borg network may want to look elsewhere for your racing thrills.

 DailyGame Review: Midtown Madness 3 [Xbox]
Originally born on the PC, Midtown Madness is known for its over-the-top citywide action and addictive multiplayer modes, and that’s exactly what this third installment delivered to Xbox Live gamers when it released a few days ago.
Even for offline gamers, Midtown Madness 3 holds dozens of hours of fun and some solid racing action, but with an impressive array of online options and one of the most well-planned lobbies around, Midtown Madness 3 is one of the most enjoyable and addictive Xbox Live titles to date.
The multiplayer modes in Midtown Madness 3 include Tag, Stayaway (where you want to be "it"), Hunter (chase other cars to make them Hunters like you) Capture the Gold (find the gold and deliver it to a depository) and Checkpoint (a standard race).

 Midtown Madness 3 - ESCMag Review
The graphics are good, not great, and the depiction of the cities is worth sneaking a peak at side views every once in awhile, just to see the Eiffel tower streak by.
But in MM3, at least during the first few races, you can bounce off the brick buildings and end up back in a lane.
MM3 marks the first time the series has landed on a console -- it was strictly a PC game for the first two editions.

 The Armchair Empire - Xbox Reviews: Midtown Madness 3
A step in that progression is Midtown Madness 3 (MM3), which features two of the most complete real-world cityscapes that I’ve ever driven.
The biggest downside to MM3 is the unimaginative missions strung together by the barest of bare stories.
The majority of MM3 is spent driving through checkpoints (delivering newspapers, pizza), racing against a few AI opponents, and finishing first.

Even for offline gamers, “Midtown Madness 3” holds dozens of hours of fun and some solid racing action, but with its impressive array of online options, “Midtown Madness 3” is one of the most enjoyable and addictive Xbox Live titles to date.
Where “Midtown Madness 3” excels beyond “Wreckless” is its inclusion of every gameplay element Xbox owners could want: more hours of overall gameplay (in spite of shallow "plots" for each story), a free-roaming mode and online multiplayer action for up to eight gamers.
The multiplayer modes in “Midtown Madness 3” include Tag, Stayaway (where you actually want to be "it" as long as possible), Hunter (chase other cars to make them Hunters like you) Capture the Gold (find the gold and deliver it to a depository) and Checkpoint (a standard race).

Microsoft's Midtown Madness series has been a huge success on the PC platform for several years now, and console owners are finally going to get in on the fun as the third installment hits the Xbox.
While all of this sounds really cool and impressive, the one area where Midtown Madness 3 disappoints is in its visuals.
While it may not be the most polished Xbox title out there, Midtown Madness 3 is a decent arcade-style game that's surprisingly addictive once you get beyond the mundane single player modes.
