This does lead to a fair amount of trial and error that isn't altogether detrimental (especially since using the free-roaming mode does really give you a good idea of how the city is laid out), but it definitely has its annoying moments. The one problem this methodology does bring up is that it can be quite frustrating the first few times you engage in a particularly challenging race because you won't know where all the required turns and potential obstacles are.
Half the challenge of the game is trying to find the best path to each checkpoint. These checkpoints are scattered all over the place, and oftentimes there are multiple paths that will take you to each one. Most of the races in Midnight Club 3 are checkpoint races. It's also useful to just get familiar with all the nooks and crannies of the city, as knowing your way around is immensely beneficial come race time. Thankfully, the game provides a cruise mode where you can just drive and explore, which isn't nearly as boring as it sounds, because there are also some hidden Rockstar logos strewn about that will earn you goodies when you collect them all. Each city is chock-full of back alleys, hidden shortcuts, and special jumps that you'll be hard pressed to discover until you've spent ample time driving around. You'll begin in San Diego, but you'll eventually be able to open up the cities of Atlanta and Detroit as well. Like the Midnight Clubs before it, Midnight Club 3 offers up a huge, open-ended city for you to race in. Now Playing: Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Video Review
