SAFETY INFORMATION
About Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther from the television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.
Other Important Health and Safety Information The Xbox Instruction Manual
contains important health and safety information that you should read and understand before using this software.
Avoid Damage to Your Television
Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or
rear-projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox games, are played on them. Static images presented during the normal course of gameplay may “burn in” to the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the static image to appear at all times, even when video games are not being played. Similar damage may occur from static images created when placing a video game on hold or pause. Consult your television owner’s manual to determine if video games can be played safely on your set. If you are unable to find this information in the owner’s manual, contact your television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games can be played safely on your set.

INTRODUCTION
Urban racing isn’t easy. Lampposts. Pesky street signs. Traffic. And those pedestrians!
Who do they think they are, just walking on the sidewalk like that?
But, you’re brave. And crazy. And that’s impressive. You’re welcome. Welcome to
Midtown Madness® 3
. Here, you have the freedom to drive what you want, where you want, how you want, and— through the power of Xbox
Live
™—with whomever you want. No set course through checkpoints. Just you, making your own decisions on how to win races through real cities in real vehicles.
In addition to the insane urban racing you’ve come to expect from
Midtown Madness
, this game has new vehicles, new cities,
new multiplayer games, a new Work Undercover mode, and Xbox
Live
... so rest assured you spent your money wisely.
To quote the legendary Dieter Kleinmann: “Eines Tages werden wir in einer Welt Rennen fahren, in der alle Rennstars Sauerkraut und Würste umsonst bekommen!”*
*We don’t know what that means.
WANNA TRAVEL? USE THE XBOX DASHBOARD TO MOVE YOUR
PROFILE TO A MEMORY CARD.
PROFILES
Profiles make it possible for you (and anyone else using your Xbox console) to track your individual progress while playing
Midtown Madness 3
. If you want to switch, rename, delete, or
create profiles, select Profiles from the Main Menu.
What the Heck Do Profiles Remember?
· your progress in Career mode
· your unlocked vehicles, races, and goodies
· your ten best Blitz race times
· your ten best Checkpoint race times
· the last car you used
· your Xbox
Live
sign-in name
· your game settings
· your Mom’s birthday (ok, maybe not)
How Do I Save a Race?
Relax. The game saves automatically for you every time you accomplish something. So, start accomplishing something already. Really. Go.

MAIN MENU
Let’s take a look at the Main Menu. Now, what you’ve got here is choice.
Work Undercover – Embark on your career as an undercover
officer in Paris or a detective in Washington D.C.
Single Race – Race against the clock in a Blitz race, make your
opponents cry in a Checkpoint race, or just roam the city in
Cruise mode.
Multiplayer – Play split screen, over System Link, or on Xbox
Live
. Take on friends or foes in multiplayer-only games or
Checkpoint races, or Cruise the city.
Options – Set up the game the way you want it. Oh, and watch
the behind-the-scenes bonus movie! Yips!
Profiles – Switch, rename, delete, or create a profile to
track your progress. Name your profile something witty, such as “Witty.”
Sign In/Out – Sign in to Xbox
Live
so you can find other players
and so your friends can find you. It must be fun having friends!
GAME MODES
Ready to race around in Blitz, Checkpoint, or Cruise mode?
Blitz – It’s a showdown: you versus the clock. Got what it takes
to race through checkpoints in any order before the clock strikes zero? The time on the clock is based on the vehicle you pick, so there’s no one to blame but yourself if you lose.
Checkpoint – You versus opponents in a thrilling race to the
finish. Your opponents are picked based on your vehicle, and most don’t care how they win—as long as you’re in their rearview mirror. Go through checkpoints in any order before your competition, and you’ve got reason to brag.
Cruise – You versus... nobody (except maybe a few cops). Cruise
around the city, unlock hidden treasures, test your vehicles, and learn the streets so you can create your own routes in Blitz and Checkpoint modes. Set the season, time of day, weather, and pedestrian/cop density to your liking!
Bonjour, driver.
Zere are hidden secrets stashed in
ze cities, so you must cruise ze streets
to find zem. Bonne chance!

GAME SCREEN
Ok, so you’re playing the game and need some information. Like, where the heck am I going?
Blitz Clock or Checkpoint Clock
The clock counts down in a
Blitz race and counts up in a Checkpoint race.
Oh, the drama!
Overhead Arrow
This points like a compass to the next checkpoint in a suggested path, but you can go through checkpoints in any order.
Checkpoint Counter
How many checkpoints have I driven through?
Speedometer with Gear
Faster! If you’ve selected manual shifting, use the B button to shift up and the X button to shift down.
Damage Meter
When your damage meter hits 100%, you’re toast (except in Cruise mode, of course).
Mini Arrow
This appears when you need to turn, if you’re following the suggested path.
Score List
Am I in first place, or am I not worthy?
Ciao! The Mini Map on your screen
automatically zooms in and out as you
approach checkpoints. That service
comes free of charge. Not like
extra cheese!
P.I., good to see you.
I‛ve got a tip hotter than asphalt
in July. Click the Right
Thumbstick
when racing to enlarge the Mini
Map. Pretty big tip for such
a small map.
Mini Map
The Mini Map shows checkpoints ( ). The next suggested checkpoint blinks, and those you’ve cleared disappear. Click the Right Thumbstick to enlarge the Mini Map.

NAVIGATION
Where the Heck Am I Going? Who Am I? Why Am I Here?
This is a checkpoint. Drive through these if you wanna win a race. The Checkpoint Counter in the upper-right corner of your screen tells you how many you’ve gone through.
This is a location checkpoint in Work Undercover mode. For example, you might have to drive through the green circle to deliver a parcel or pizza. Green means go, so you don’t have to stop; just drive through the circle, and keep on racing.
This is another location checkpoint in Work Undercover mode. Red means stop, so you must stop within the rectangle. For example, you might stop in a red rectangle to let a passenger out of your car.
WORK UNDERCOVER
Want to Get Entangled in Exciting, Mysterious Plots?
Paris: Oui, oui, work for the police as an under­cover detective sent to protect world-famous race-car driver Dieter Kleinmann. What do you get when you cross Dieter’s lifetime achievement award with obsessed Scandinavian fans?
One answer: Toe socks.
D.C.: Hop on your magic carpet, P.I., and join forces with a classic, old-school detective. Two famous filmmakers,
Stefano and Michael Tortellini, are
in town to make their latest action
film. However, a rival hot-shot
producer is in town, too. Lights,
camera, action—you know what
I mean?
How Does the Career Path Work?
Select your city to begin your undercover career. Each city has seven different jobs. To move on to the next job, you must complete three missions in your current job.
I’m Scared.
Don’t be.

MULTIPLAYER MODE
Here’s what you can say to your friends when you school them in Multiplayer mode (split screen, System Link, or Xbox
Live)
:
I pity the fool.
Boo-ya!
You want
some more?
How about I race
backwards?
How ya like me now?
You better
recognize!
At least try to make this
a challenge!
Pay up.
Why am I so good at
this game?
Were you
in that
last race?
You get the idea.
Multiplayer Game Types (System Link and Xbox
Live
)
Checkpoint and Cruise modes function the same as they do in Single Race mode. So, check out page 5 if you’re confused.
Capture the Gold – There’s gold in the city—go snag it, and
deliver it back to a location. But, look out—opponents can stop you and steal the gold by crashing into your car. Set gold goals or a time limit if you want a winner, or you can just play forever!
Tag – The goal: Don’t be It when the clock strikes zero. If
you’re It, tag another player, so they become It. Last one standing wins.
Hunter – Avoid being caught by the Hunter! One player starts
as the Hunter, and the others are Prey. As Prey are tagged by the Hunter, they also become Hunters. Last player who is Prey wins!
Stayaway – The goal is to be It for the longest amount of time.
If you’re It, get away from the other players and avoid being tagged, ’cause they wanna be It, too! Set time or score limits if you want a winner, or you can play forever!

Here are a few ways to add a player to your Friends list
In the Recent Players list, select the name of the player you
want to add to your Friends, and then select Add Friend.

Music and
Midtown Madness 3
I Want To Hear My Own Music in
Midtown Madness 3
!
First, you must create soundtracks in the Xbox Dashboard.
What Is the Xbox Dashboard?
The Xbox Dashboard is the green screen (seen below) that you reach when you don’t have a game disk in the console.
How Do I Create Soundtracks in the Xbox Dashboard?
Take out the
Midtown Madness 3
disk, go to the Xbox Dashboard Music menu, and copy tracks from an audio CD to a soundtrack. For more information, refer to your Xbox console instruction manual.
Let’s be clear—to copy tunes to a soundtrack, you gotta turn on the Xbox console without the
Midtown Madness 3
disk. After
you’re done creating your soundtracks, then you can put the
Midtown Madness 3
disk back in and go to Sound Setup.
I’ve Created Soundtracks on the Xbox Dashboard, so How Do I Get These Soundtracks into
Midtown
Madness 3
?
Put the
Midtown Madness 3
disk back in, and follow
these steps:
1. From the Main Menu, select Options.
2. From the Options menu, choose Sound Setup.
3. From the Sound Setup menu, select
Edit Playlist.
4. Press Left or Right on the D-pad to choose
a soundtrack.
5. Select Add to select one song at a time, or select
Add All to add entire soundtracks.
6. Press the A button to add the song or songs.
7. Press the B button when you’re finished!

LOCKED VEHICLES
Want To Get Your Hands on Every Vehicle in the Game?
Unlocking every vehicle will take some time, but don’t worry, there are treats along the way. Here are the basics:
Progress through the Blitz and Checkpoint races to
unlock vehicles.
Beat all the Blitz or Checkpoint races in a city, and you’ll
unlock a vehicle.
Complete all missions in an undercover career job, and you’ll
unlock a vehicle.
Beat all the Blitz, Checkpoint, and Career races, and you
get a super-secret car. It’s worth it.
What About Locked Paint Jobs?
There are hidden paint jobs in each city, and the only way to find them is to search high and low. Look for the hidden paint jobs while racing any single-player race, or select Cruise from the Single Race screen, and get to work! You can unlock paint jobs only for the vehicle you are driving.

DIETER KLEINMANN
Q & A Session with World-Famous Urban Racer Dieter Kleinmann
(from
Car Racer
, reprinted with permission)
MM3: Thanks for taking the time to sit down with us. Kleinmann: Der Schlüssel zum Sieg liegt in runden Kurven und
schnellen Geraden.
MM3: Please speak to us in English. Kleinmann: Fine.
MM3: Could you please explain your secret to urban racing? Kleinmann: Well, I use the Mini Map to plot the best route, and that
includes cutting corners and flying through parks. Then, I avoid obstacles, such as poles. Not only can they slow you down, but—even worse—they scratch the paint. There is only one good thing about obstacles— bumping your opponents into them!
MM3: So what’s up with the two arrows? Kleinmann: The big, yellow arrow points to the next checkpoint in a
suggested, optional path. It’s like a compass, so don’t follow it exactly unless you can drive through buildings. The little arrow pops up when it’s time to turn—if you’re following the suggested path. Sometimes, I ignore them both!
MM3: What if the next checkpoint you want is behind you? Kleinmann: That’s when you use the handbrake
for a quick 180! Oh, it’s fun, but make sure you haven’t eaten schnitzel beforehand.
MM3: What’s the best part about racing? Kleinmann: Winning. And the
free schnitzel.
