Midnight Club: Street Racing is a racing simulation along the lines of The Fast and the Furious movies. The player starts off with a relatively plain and slow car and through a series of races (each with different goals) they defeat other racers and win their faster and better looking cars.
The game suffered from a number of bugs and glitches in terms of its object modeling and graphics, but it was to be expected for a launch title for the PlayStation 2 platform. The game featured a "Capture the Flag" mode (for both single- and multi-player) that often received high marks.
It was created by Angel Studios (now Rockstar San Diego) and published by Rockstar Games on October 26, 2000.
