Yah MC3 is the best racing game out there. Has an open city, endless customization and cars, great gameplay/racing as well. Only thing it lacks is a real story. It's downfall is the horrible loading times, get the greatest hits version, it cuts the original 80 seconds load times in half, which still isn't very good. I also recommend Juiced, the driving is alittle iffy(RWD cars are just a b**** to control), but has decent customization/car options. Your rewarded for driving safely, you gain respect. It doesn't have a story really either. Those are the only 2 games i would truely recommend, but you might like the wipeout series.

lol totally forgot about the burnout series, yah those are really good games. I was in the "street racing" mind set. Test drive has alot of cars, but no customization, other than color. When it first came out there were like 50 online, i doubt there is many now, id look at the test drive board for more info.

Single player is good though, but if you have a 360 or a capable PC, you should get Test Drive for one of thoes instead because it is a great game.

Midnight Club 3 is absoultely one of my favorites on the PSP as it has the best graphics and gameplay. Only downside is the long loading times and no Infastructure mode.

Best racer on PSP, it's a mix of burnout, destruction Derby's, dirt racing, and people not wearing seat-belts.

I've tried Ridge Racer , NFS Carbon , Wipeout Pulse , Test Drive Unlimited and Burnout Dominator. Going to get Midnight Club DUB soon but so far, I think NFS Carbon Own the City owns all ~ Best graphics too. Tried Flatout but didnt really get into it yet, seems like a decent racing game too, but without its open-world freedom... I prefer NFS Carbon anytime tho'~.~ :D

Burnout, Ridge Racer, IDK about Midnight Club because the loading times make it almost unplayable.

I wouldn't count on it.
But the single player is great...you just have to play it to understand how great it really is.
The map is huge and there are like unlimited races to compete in...it's amazing.

I dont understand any of you. Burnout Legends is not only easily the PSP's best racer, its one of best racer's ever made, at least according to gamespot's ratings.

In my personal opinion Ridge Racer, or Burnout Legends. Ridge Racer doesn't appeal to everyone, but I'm a pretty big fan of RR.

I doubt it will influence your decision but i just bought Juiced 2. Honestly being a big fan of Juiced 1 I'm pretty disappointed. First of let me say the game is some what fun, the drifting, the driving and etc has improved. There is still alot of customization as well. But the whole "MTV" aspect of the game makes it, some what of a drag to play. It's not sponsored by them, but just the feel of it, the over the top announcer, how they try to make it like your in a TV show, it just ruins the atmosphere of the game. Honestly i payed 17.99 for it used, so I'm going to play it more, but i might take it back.

I had a question, asked someone earlier but they didn't respond. But will I be able to play Initial D if I can't read any Japanese? Like, thats my only concern, I don't mind importing it from play-asia, it would only be 33$, which I'm fine with. But I don't want to buy a game I won't understand.

Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition is a a really good game. They also have a remix version that you may want to check out. The graffics are clean and you can basically create your dream car(s) if you want.

i've been playing nfs carbon a bit recently too. it's pretty good.

honestly tho, i got it for the online mode, cuz i already have burnout dominator to keep me busy with single player, so i downloaded a 100% completed save game so i can play online. i was surprised that pretty every race, every player picks the lambo. i got bored after a while. :roll:

good thing i have a game rental service. lol

Ridge Racer for pure arcade, structured fun

Flat Out for off road with some nice twists

Burnout Legends for the crash mode (sadly missing from Dominator)

trust me i've played burnout dominator, mc3, need for speed shift and test drive unlimited. the best game is test drive unlimited. mabye it is the oldest but it is coolest with the most coolest cars. it's like playing gta in car version. you buy a house and every thing. but you don't get out of the car. tdu has pajanis, lambo's, ford, chevy, austin martin, mercedes, mclaren f1, koinseggg, dodge, lotus, nissan and other eurapean cars. you can even be president of a club and buy free upgrades or get a free car if you became prez of that club.

Midnight Club L.A. Remix is way better than Midnight Club 3. Otherwise try NFS: Carbon, or Burnout Legends.

i like f1 2009 it is awesome the graphics are good and the gameplay is really good

so u r a f1 fan i would say go for it

motorstorm is also good great music and graphics + online is a bonus

both burnout games are also great

nfs series on psp is ok but i dont play them usually
