Midnight Club, now in its fourth major release, lands on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, giving us Rockstar San Diego’s first foray into flashy, illegal street racing on current-generation consoles. The series heads to the west coast with Midnight Club Los Angeles, bringing with it a new, realistic representation of southern California’s smoggiest city, which happens to also be Midnight Club‘s biggest location to date. With a more open-world environment, “next-gen” graphics and extensive online integration, has Rockstar given us a reason to renew our membership to the Midnight Club?
