Midnight Club: Street Racing

  • This little dare:
    Larry Muller: You reckon you got a chance against the queen of ki...I mean the king of Queens?
  • Keiko tells you to call her "only if you want to race."
  • Apparently Both Emily and her car are "great in the curves."

Midnight Club II

  • If you hit a portable toilet while driving the person inside will yell "Hey, there's someone in here!" or "Leave me alone!"
  • If you enter the cheat code "savethekids", you'll give your vehicle a machine gun and rocket launchers.
  • It's not uncommon to end the very final race with a literal bang, as your car (and those of the other racers) is likely to swerve into the gas station upon crossing the finish line. If Savo happens to shout one of his common phrases whenever you damage your car ("What are you doing, you are destroying the car!") after the fact, then it becomes that much funnier.
  • Speaking of Savo, the fact that he's actually relieved at being dethroned as the Street Racing World Champion can be an amusing twist. Especially considering it'd be easier to list the racers in MCII that aren't Sore Losers, including the last two City Champions, Parfait and Makoto.

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition

  • As there's no profanity filter in the game, you can drive around San Diego, Atlanta, and Detroit (and Tokyo in Remix) with a license plate that can say just about anything on it (as long as it's within the seven-character limit). Yes, you can put profanities like 'FUCKYOU' or 'EATSHIT' on your license plate if it makes you feel better about the game's difficulty at points.
  • The intro cutscene to the Tokyo Challenge in Remix. Seeing Tomoya alternate between insulting and berating his mechanic and complimenting him ("Even this clown is better than any of those butchers in America") is nothing short of hilarious.
    • Bonus points for Tomoya sharing a voice actor with none other than Wu Zi Mu.
  • This line from Oscar during one of the tutorial videos. Especially in its delivery:
    Oscar: Now get out there and race, fool!

Midnight Club: Los Angelos

  • Equip a motorcycle with the Aggro special ability, activate it, and start plowing into traffic. The result is so absurd it's hilarious.
    • Using Aggro in a 1983 Volkswagen GTI, or any car that doesn't weigh two tons in real life, tends to elicit the same result.
    • Using the EMP ability on a rival tends to elicit some... spirited responses...
      • Well, one of the racers is crazy, but then again, it makes that racer all the more hilarious to hear screaming like crazy.
    • Also, you'll wonder why the Roar ability can't be done in real life. It would make driving in the real LA much more pleasurable...
