L.A. Rush celebrates California car culture, by highlighting popular, real-life vehicles of the muscle, tuner, and exotic scenes. Backed by West Coast Customs and Rides Magazine, the game features exclusive, "pimped out" autos seen on television and tours. It also encourages virtual racers to express themselves, by customizing their own cars with a selection of modifications and accessories. A story mode has players stealing back 30 custom cars that were taken from their garage, and regaining "street cred" by roughing up the guilty parties in "Retribution" racing missions. A split-screen head-to-head mode lets two players race against one another on tracks unlocked in the story mode.

You are Trikz, a well-known street racer who lives the good life: A fat crib, lots of money, and an impressive collection of pimped-out rides. However, your arch-enemy Lidel, fuming with envy, uses his connections to take all that away from you. Your cash? Your place? Your beloved cars? All gone.

You are now set on getting it all back from Lidel, and, while you're at it, stealing his girl's heart too. You begin your mission at the bottom with some punk-ass car, winning back money and cars race by race. There are many kinds of races, like Endurance Races, Stunt Races, Cross-town Races, and many more.

As the name suggests, the game is set on the streets of Los Angeles, which is filled with traffic and cops that stand in your way to fame and fortune. Being set in the street racer scene, the game also offers lots of possibilities to pimp out our cars (through a tie-in with West Coast Custom), and the game's soundtrack is full with (edited, T-rated) hip-hop.

Features:
* Drive across more than 350 miles of Los Angeles during the day or at night
* Features 35 licensed cars and 16 concept cars
* Discover shortcuts, leap across rooftops, and blaze past police
* Characters voiced by Bill Bellamy, Orlando Jones, and hip-hop artist Twista
* More than 75 songs from a variety of artists, including Lil Kim and DJ Ra
