Quote: "i actually liked mm1 better although i played mm2"
Totally agree. I have mm1 and mm2, and mm3 on the X-Box. I thought the first one was way better. Ok, so basically it's the same engine and they made it slightly better in the sequel, but just the way the races worked seemed better in mm1. More moments when the CPU car would veer off on a different route, and more importantly if you followed the set route normally that would mean a better car or uber skills to win, whereas the fun was finding alternative quicker routes. mm2 IMO didn't have so much of that. It was normally the main route and that was it. Almost as if the original developers left the engine and retired to an island somewhere and some people who never really played mm1 picked it up.
mm3 on the other hand I played for nostalgia purposes. I had basically only gone to Paris about a month before I got the game so it was class seeing how close to the real thing it was
Wish they would make a new improved version, more like mm1, but with updated everything else
Oh, and even though I *loved* mm1, nothing beats Carmageddon (pretty close between 1st and 2nd for me). After a major amount of hassle I managed to get it (2nd one) working again on XP (Yay) last year. If you haven't played it then do. Awesome driving game. Everything else is just driving around.
Cheers
