Rockstar Games is a little busy right now ahead of its big release of Grand Theft Auto IV, but the video game developer had enough time to announce that the next installment of its Midnight Club racing series will land on the Xbox 360 and PS3 come September 9th. Joystiq reports that Midnight Club: Los Angeles will feature "no load times, no tracks, and no rules," which means much hooning can be had in the City of Angels with a large selection of infinitely customizable cars. Among those available to gamers will be the first use of the new Dodge Challenger and Chevy Camaro in a racing game. Having already been officially revealed to the public, the Challenger in Midnight Club: Los Angeles looks spot on, while the Camaro appears to sport a few quirky details like its headlights that Chevy probably didn't want to reveal in a video game or just weren't ready when it came to digitize the car. Driving your dream cars in a video game certainly doesn't replace the real thing, but it's fun to do things with a digital version that you wouldn't dream of inflicting on an actual car.

Let's hope this game doesn't suck, like every other Midnight Club.

 

The Camaro looks weird, no front scoop and yet the concept mirrors. That front grill is awesome though. It will be interesting to see how this game developes and if it doesn't suck or not...

I'll stay tuned

 

I wish LA streets were that open to race! Only in a game.

The Camaro and Challenger seem to be modeled on the concepts and not production. I like the customization aspect of the game. Hidden headlights do look cool.

I don't think GM has to worry about any secrets getting out from this game. We know what the concpet car looks like.

 

I think they were both in Need for Speed Carbon...so its not the first, this game looks a lot better though, more of a motor city online style...i wish that were still around!

 

Me too! I loved that game! I was working on a crazy handling 69 Z/28 in that game when they pulled the plug

 

IF ONLY the real car could have a straight across (not so recessed) grill and headlights like that. The GFX improve it some also, the car has alot of potential to be alot nicer than it will probably be stock, hopefully the aftermarket responds.
