Along with the release date news from earlier today, Rockstar also released a gaggle of brand new screenshots for Midnight Club: Los Angeles, and they are pretty damn nice looking. I've only been in LA maybe three times in my life, four if you count driving through, and even I recognize things I've seen before. Not a bad feat, recreating the look and feel of Los Angeles. Too bad their isn't enough computing power in the world to accurately render the city's traffic.I doubt even the combine computing power of the Folding@Home project could generate that level of detail.
