The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. “The Little Mermaid” is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile also features a nice selection of little jingles and sounds. At no point does the map get too far ahead or lag too far behind as you race to your next goal. The scrolling is smooth, and even more important, accurate. The different vehicles also look reasonably different from each other, which is a nice touch considering a lot of handset racers just like to re-skin vehicles with new paintjobs. The Paris map is colorful, detailed, and features some nice canals and landmarks. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile looks pretty good. When you drive down this road, it looks like your vehicle is driving through the big nothing on the little map. For example, there is a north-south road on the right side of the city that does not appear on the map. The map is, for the most part, extremely useful. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile does offer a map of the city at the bottom of the screen which uses a series of colored dots to display your next goal. And that's just enough time to slam into a wall and lose precious speed. Because you are not always facing north, it sometimes takes an extra half-second of thought to discern which way to steer. You are stuck with pressing forward to accelerate, back to brake, and left and right to turn. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile does not dangle directional control in front of you. One thing that DRIV3R does better than Midtown Madness 3 Mobile is offer two different control options. The deliveries missions have you darting all over the city to make timed drops. While out and about, you can pick up bonuses by running over newspaper stands and other destructible objects. As the ambulance driver, you must head out into the city to pick up sickies and bring them back to the hospital at the edge of town. The two career modes are good, goofy fun. This is when you'll really start learning optimum routes and shortcuts to use in career mode. Blitz mode is roughly the same, but instead of needing to hit the checkpoints in order, you can pursue them in any order. Checkpoint races lead you on a fast race through Paris - a pretty decent rendition of the city, too - where you must cross a series of flagged points first. These frantic races will give you the grand tour of the city and introduce you to useful shortcuts that make the career missions much easier. These modes are the meat of the game, but might we recommend a different approach? Start out by playing the two race modes: Checkpoint and Blitz. The game offers two career modes, where you can either play a series of ambulance missions or make a series of frenzied delivery runs. Is it as fast and advanced as the upcoming 3D edition we've played? No, but for lower-tech handsets, Midtown Madness 3 Mobile provides a fun driving game with oodles of game play options - all of which are entertaining. The Xbox Live game was good, and thusly, this mobile edition isn't too shabby, either. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile doesn't have that problem. For many gamers, it will be difficult to see the DRIV3R name on their download decks and separate Sorrent's good game from the crap-tacular source material. It was mighty unfortunate for Sorrent that Atari's game, well, sucked. This summer, Sorrent released a go-go edition of DRIV3R as a companion piece to Atari's console game. Checkpoint or Blitz races Midtown Madness 3 Mobile isn't the first top-down racing game based on a console title we've played. Drive multiple cars such as ambulances and minis.We recently received a download of the game and put it through a solid test drive. The 3D version of game is nearing completion for Smartphones, but the top-down 2D edition is currently available for play on Sprint PCS. Midtown Madness 3 Mobile comes in two flavors, too.
