I think GTA has a better value than Midnight Club ever had. For starters, most GTA players will NOT play an MC game, because of graphical advancements in GTA, which make Midnight Club's graphics suck ass if compared. Midnight Club doesn't let you get out of your car and run when so desired, another reason. Midnight Club has literally one ending in every single game, the replay value is tiny, if existant at all. MCLA was the last ditch effort for Rockstar to revamp the series; it was already starting to die. Yet another reason is that GTA is the top money-maker for Rockstar, you can't change that, contrary to Midnight Club. Overall, the Midnight Club series is dead like a slugged deer, and GTA is up and moving like a Lamborghini on steriods, PCP, morphine, and crack cocaine, you will need to have to pull off a miracle times ten to beat GTA.
