[edit] Objective
A mysterious group of urban street racers known as the Midnight Club race for pride, power, and glory in sleekly customised, enhanced sports cars. As a regular New York City cab driver, the player learns about this secret club and decides to join.
The player begins with a relatively unmodified and slow vehicle. Through a series of races, each with different goals, they defeat other racers and win faster and more expensive vehicles. The games levels are known for their gravity-defying jumps and shortcuts.
[edit] Cities
Players race through London and New York cities. By modern standards, the cities are significantly less detailed than their real life counterparts, but were highly detailed and large for the game at the time. Both cities are designed for the racing scenario.
Each city contains landmarks from their respective real life counterparts. Some of London's visible landmarks include Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, and Tower Bridge. New York includes such landmarks as Times Square, the Empire State Building, the now-destroyed World Trade Center, and Central Park.
[edit] Multiplayer
Multiplayer modes, such as Capture the Flag, are available for play using PlayStation 2's additional controllers.
