So many hours, had alot of cars! Take me back

LMAO I also had a house in SF and used to park my car there before quitting the game.

omds ur here

Figureight same :)

Hey man

94... I used to play this game with my older brother . In my mind this game has epic graphics and gameplay🤯

89

Yes, though my body makes me feel like I was born in the 1940s 😭

Impostor

Loved flying down Lombard!

Me too!

Leivthious Similarly, when my dad got me Burnout 3 for the PS2 - that very night we both crushed the Riverside - all hail good old split-screen! It's some good fun a father and son can mutually share on the same page, eh?

seems like you were seriously sheltered growing up

Ohh IBM Aptiva, good times.

Dude, if only my dad had even attempted to spend time with me. You lucky

You played games with your dad and he is still alive? So unlike youtube.

Never played multiplayer except on lab with our downstairs computer but I came here to mention that he didnt show climbing onto that roof in the review. Glad to see I wasn't the only kid who discovered that was possible.

@@brandonstafford4054 You really missed out not playing MP, on the MSN gaming Zone CityBus CnR was hands down the #1 online mode to play, I must have spent 2000-3000 hours playing CB CnR

Still have both games, boxes included, memory lane..... And i might just play it today for old times sake, :D

Bosko423 Did you do it ? Great game !

yep, i still play roof wars with my friends on top of the hyatt :)

GTA was out before this im afraid, there was a bug in the top down driving game they were making where the cars chasing you were stupid aggressive so they took that a built the game around it and got GTA1.

@@Fazer_600 GTA games were 2D when this game came out, although GTA 3 was in production at the time.

More tea, vicar?

sleeping with the fishes

i remember that

I desperately tried to run people over in cruise mode.

i know they add it in midnight club 2

SupaPixelGirl agree

Nice & solid video, & mentioned plenty of what i wrote a while back to get the game running along with the modding community & gamemodes. Its still fun to pass the time in a classroom running multiplayer playing cops & robbers setting to run the same car with the wonky physics engine & in general trolling you can do with various obstacles or teaming up to steal the stuff from the other players.

true he is good

Sometimes that could be considered good; but in The Crew in particular, there is absolutely no point in having a fixed player character. For single player campaign, he or she could just as well been customizable, with the customization carrying over into multiplayer. There is no intrinsic appeal to the character nor much in terms of prerendered cutschenes that couldn't be directed differently if the character wasn't fixed. There's this aspect of these games that just keeps getting worse. These developers can't do stories, so arguably they shouldn't try. The Crew being a sequel of Test Drive Unlimited, in a way, different company names, but related technology and same developer team... TDU, you have no story, but mad races and exploration keeping he thing appealing. Sure the game has flaws, but they're not too distracting overall. You progress simply by levelling or gaining money, doing whatever is fun to you. In TDU2 they tacked on a story, and while it's not too intrusive unlike later games, story driven missions are badly designed and the forced exploration just sucks. In The Crew, they made exploration aspect and story driven races better, but the story is borderline obnoxious, just like it is in NFS games that really work better without one - the stories never had a motivational advantage, the exciting setpieces and tracks did. Plus the social component in TDU2 really worked for the most part, it doesn't in The Crew, it's best played alone. I think something like a mix of NFSW and TDU2 needs to come about, and i'm actually working on something in this regard, but I don't have enough to show, and when I do (could take years) i'll likely present it on the Turboducks forum to solicit feedback. The goal is to make something fully moddable - your own islands, your own vehicles, your own gameplay styles, so people can just create an open world racing game they like and reuse each other's assets to accomplish it efficiently, and leave out the typical industry bullshit. One common theme is that people just hate half baked heartless shit being forced down their throat, but otherwise people will never agree on what kind of game they would like, but they shouldn't have to.

EximiusDux there's absolutely nothing that I enjoy in a game more than a well told story! It doesn't even have to be too intricate, it just has to make its punches count. But I play story driven games, I read novels occasionally. If I had to name my all time favourite game, it would probably be Day of the Tentacle, and I absolutely loved playing L.A. Noire and Broken Age recently, and I think Tomb Raider reboot is one example of game storytelling in a non story centric genre that I can name of the recent ones that was actually well executed. Thing is, well I haven't played most of the more recent Need for Speed games, I played The Run and forgot what else, but does any of them, in your opinion, do storytelling right, do storytelling well? I'm going to give an example, certainly of doubtful relevance given it's well over 20 years old now, but it does tell us something. The very first Road&Track Presents: the Need for Speed. The original release for ill fated 3DO console, it had the rival as FMV actor in a parking lot talking smack and challenging you. Everyone hated him, they took him out for re-releases, so you can directly compare the game reception and impact. So did he do anything in the first place? He was there to make you hate The Rival, to up the stakes, but they just tightened up the ruthless AI so whatever mistake you make, at the later deciding levels near the end of the multi part tour, he will overtake you, so you're gonna hate him automatically. The same thing the "story" pretense does, conveyed through gameplay, much better. Games are interactive experiences - while they are conductive to tell a story, a mindless game with a trivial narrative tacked onto it is still a mindless game, and a challenging but not punishing game without an attempt at narrative is still inherently rewarding. Sure a good narrative can make anything better, but that's not something I can provide, nor am I aware of a good precedent in this specific genre so far, and I think if something is to be done, it shouldn't just be there, it has to actually be good, or at least have a chance of being good at development stages and culled away before release if it doesn't hold up.

Let's not even talk about all those "brofist" type of games like Dirt 3 and it's ginkana BS, or the NSF game with the cringey actors... Sometimes more is less, Midtown Madness let you in control of exploring that huge city, that was so awesome back then !

The Ginkana stuff was pretty bad, and the theme was pretty bro, but the actual gameplay was really solid.

Driver San Francisco is amazing, reminds me of Midtown Madness games.

u sure about that?

@@Kronos0999 ?

@@cloudysleep4732 I'm just glad you're still around even after so many years. ;)

Too hard to tell since so much years seperate from them but the open world spirit is saved

lol,looks like the graphics are the same as gta 3 or older

I had some Midnight Club 3 flashbacks while watching this so yeah I get what you mean.

YEP. Those missions were an absolute grind, but those extra cars argh.

WolfyMelon my first game too

I don't have the box anymore, but I still have the disc. My dad went out of his way to figure to mod the game for me so i can have fun with broken cars. I remember the terrible, terrible grinding for those nice cars... this game also made the classic ford mustang fastback my favorite car. Also, when I was a kid, I always thought that unreachable backgrounds like the rest of Marin County and the Bay Bridge were actually visitable places, so I tried my best to find ways to glitch out of bounds to go there, only to realize that they are flat backdrops and there is only gray ground/water beyond the boundaries of the map.

Marcin Misiek I was always looking for ways out of the bounds of the maps and ways to get on to rooftops and other places you weren't supposed to go. Then I discovered the Virtual Killer. You can get just about anywhere with it since it can use walls as ramps if you hit them at the right angle.

бля брантан люто плюсую)

Fuzy2K Or Jeff from American Dad

Fuzy2K Bart?

sadly Clint don't do really do games anymore, but man... Monster Truck Madness ... when I bought the first one it included a t-shirt and baseball cap. The shirt was too small and the cap terrible quality, but hey, fun merch.

@@thesteelrodent1796 he did a review of the last cities skylines dlc a week ago

Excellent! I hope you enjoyed this one too :)

7:49 Cool, I saw superficial similarities to Midnight Club but thought it was a coincidence. Midnight Club 2 was my favorite.

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up!

I thought DHS design(or something similar) became Rockstar

And DHS design was the one who made GTA 1, which had a different title for some time, which was considered a failure, but after a glitch occured that police cars would chase like crazy the player, people started liking the game, which was named GTA, afterwards, and the company Rockstar was formed.

Oh, Angel Studios actually joined, not formed Rockstar, my bad

Heh.

Woah.. That was just some light humor.. No need to be rude...

YES YES YES !!!

Don't forget Hot Wheels Velocity X

SilverSurferTDR many many hours where spent playing 4x4 EVO 2. Loved that game.

Played a motocross madness demo that was on a microsoft CD and the only reason I still remember that game is that ridiculous explosion sound and you're suddenly flying across the map when you make it up and over the map barrier.

4x4 evo especially

They originally planned to release it for Windows operating systems, but because they wanted to promote the original Xbox, it was cancelled.

What's worse is it's not even backwards compatible on later generations of Xbox (360 and One) and emulation is still not there yet for this game, so the only way to play MM3 is on an Original Xbox!

@@AymanTravelTransport I remember my Mum bought me that for my 360 years ago now. My Disc got laser burnt which meant it crashed that games a lot also the mods I had didnt help. Anyway I put in my 360 and an error came up saying that the disc wasnt supported. Im glad because the magic wasn't the same at all if you not what I mean.

TrackMania Nations still floats in rotation when we have mates together for some LAN gaming, it is a blast. Can get pretty competitive with the lap times though!

Your comment prompted me to install Trackmania Sunrise on my current machine, but I couldn't start the game due to the stupid Starforce DRM thinking Windows 10 is Windows 98. I had the same problem trying to play the game on 7 and even Vista, where the game worked, but I could only play modded maps...

It was the first original Xbox game I ever played.

disc*

I'm really late, but the software GameRanger usually has MM2 players around.

I didn't have a problem with it.

Next to music, a storyline is the most inappropriate thing for a racing game to have. Glad 3 got cancelled before they gave it the Fallout treatment.

Holy shit are you kidding? I dumped it about 5 years ago I think. :(

what are you on. i saw it for $20 bucks with the boxs

Too bad its was an Xbox exclusive. Xbox didn't used to sell in my country that time. :/

I spend hours to get the color of my F1 right :D a nice combination of green and orange with some small decals. This was so great. I also loved the hydraulics, neon lights and minor details as changing the depth of the wheels. Pure awesomeness!

They dont make because people dont buy them

Why sad?

As long as the quality is kept up, I'm happy for LGR. Clint puts a lot of work in and I appreciate his efforts for it.

More views means more resources for me to make better videos. Can't say I find it sad at all!

I don't know, above 500k subs is a pretty big deal if you ask me, but LGR deserves way more in my opinion as no reviewer I've watched puts this much effort into their reviews, at least now, old Angry Joe used to be my favorite.

ganymedeIV4 yeah sure... My cringed little ass
