Weird that thab said he opted to use the high-res mode, yet the only 480i footage is of the pre-race menus, everything else is 240p. I guess that explains why he didn't see a performance dip.
I'm 31, top gear overdrive was the FIRST game I ever played in my life as a kid in the 90s. Til this day it is one of the most fun racing games i've ever played, and the soundtrack is good too. Amazing memories for this one.
Those highway drop-offs are like something I would see in one of my dreams. All that's missing is a hill that keeps getting higher and more vertical until gravity takes over and my car plummets to the ground.

Now you are in trouble, a BIG trouble😁 The main objective on The New Tetris is to build Wonders. Yeah, all seven (7) of those, building via Tetris blocks. -It takes ages! But, every N64-game was playtested by Nintendo's own Super Mario Club, from start to finish, so rest assured that it's indeed possible to build seven wonders by a hand job. LOL!
i know the N64 library and there are a lot of games i never owned/played and im very very happy for what the beast is doing im learning about a lot of games i missed and games to avoid if i want to get them, you're doing god's work man!!! thank you!!!
Thanks for the series, Thab. I discovered these a few weeks ago, and I have watched from the start. It's shame: now I am up to speed, I have to wait for a week for the next video. This feeling only occurs because this is a series I really enjoy. It's been a nice companion for the last few weeks - I even listen to them when I go out running. They keep me happy. Keep up the good work, Thab. Any idea what challenge you are going to start once you wave this one off at the finish line? Respect from the UK 👊 ...JoE...
Man this was one of my FAVORITE games back in the day. I really can't thank you enough for this series! edit regarding the music: lmao I really liked the music in this game back then. I'll have to go back and listen to it to see how it holds up.
I commend you for fighting through this one. I picked up this game as a kid and convinced myself it was great but deep down I knew it wasn't lol. The cheat codes helped me unlocked the weird cars. I'd always race as the, hot dog, the taco, or the Nintendo Power Jeepster Concept car
The Top Gear games started on the SNES. But I played "Top Gear 2" on Sega Genesis, Co-Op split screen with my dad & its one of the major bonding moments we had when I was a pretty young kid. So when I heard the series was coming to N64, I was dying to play it and do the same stuff, but I hated Top Gear Rally & not sure if I played this version.
cheat codes were such a huge part of gaming culture to me back in the day. if it wasn't one you found in a magazine, or heard at school, you would spend all night trying to find the best ones for the games you had. it would be the only reason you put a game back in the console after months of it setting on a shelf, and it would be a gamble if it was any good or if it worked at all. you eventually found a good one that you had to show all the neighborhood kids. like playing duke nukem death matches where some were giant and some were tiny, then you'd argue who had god mode on. cheat codes added so much replayablity into games, and they should bring that back as a standard.
Ohhhhh I think I watched some of your vod of this game. I’m like damn I know all these first tracks and shortcuts look familiar but I know I’ve never played this.
Thab knows so little about cars. It's fantastic. Next time someone shows their Porsche off to me, I'm excited to use his line about how it's a nice Toyota carolla.
I played this one and think the controls is like ice. But the grafics are awesome and OST just ok. I choose to keep in my collection TGR2 and TGHB only. Sold my TGOD and don't regret it.
There is some racing game for the N64 that won’t allow you to hit certain obstacles. If there was a fork in the road, it wouldn’t allow to hit the center area dividing the 2 paths. You would be stopped just short of hitting it and moved back 50ft instead. I think it may have been one of the latter installments of the Burnout series but am unsure.
This challenge seemed unfeasible to me, especially with RPGs and foreign games, yet that 1,000 hour total so far is less than the 1400+ I put into Animal Crossing in 2020 alone.
This game was a huge part of my childhood! I used to visit my mom and stepdad on the weekends when I was in elementary school, and him and I would beat this game sometimes in one night, or at least stay up until one of us literally passed out 😂 we got so good that we could fly though all the shortcuts on all of the maps with the exception of the beach. The beach shortcut that teleports you across the map was hard to hit consistently. Seeing you spend money on leveling your bug made me crack up because we realized after a few playthroughs is to get the next car ASAP. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this crash and burn playthrough. It’s extremely hard to pick up and get the feel of how wonky the steering is. Edit: the better you do in this game, the more bonus cars you get. They are all hilarious and whacky. And drive crazy fast
Yooo I love this game! when I was a kid I genuinely loved the alternative time and weather to the courses, so I didn't mind the limited amount of race tracks the game had :) ....Also c'mon, Taco car :D it's the simple things to enjoy~

It’s actually a 4th gen Camaro and not a 3rd, specifically the 98-02 body after the face lift 😉

Yea me too. Thab def isn't a car guy.

It's ways doable, too. As scared of death as I am in the moment, the car always lands relatively safely. Enough to go again when I least want it to.😱
I mean it’s Detroit so…
New Tetris was one of our favorite multiplayer games in college. Hope you enjoy it.
Donkey in a display case is hillarious! I did not see that car design coming.

Do you know if this music was ever released elsewhere? I’ve been looking for years!
Now you are in trouble, a BIG trouble😁

Thab: what kind of carolla is this?
That “normal car” is a Porsche 911, or an unlicensed version of one anyway. And the “Corvette” is a Ferrari F40.
Mclaren f1 for last
And the banshee is a viper
i mean does he know what a toyota corolla looks like?
@@Raziel1984if you remove the iconic spoiler of the 911, it does .. Maybe kinda resemble the corollas from the 80's.. if you squint

He called the greatest production car ever made “a Lamborghini”

Ex Grind Stone Band member here… TAKE IT BACK! Or I will take back all my likes!

Beetle Adventure Racing was originally going to be a NFS game.
Yes, Detroit is famous for its giant, snow-capped mountains. 7:22

On the Turok play through he called the raptor a stegosaurus. Bro is trolling 😂
Loved this game growing up. I’m so hyped to see him play Rush 2 whenever he gets to it. I sunk so many hours into that game.
Rush 2 was so good countless hours with my friend trying to get high score on the stunt track
That last one really hauls ass.
The taco car was my favourite, I used to love this game as a kid
If you have trouble catching up to 1st place, there probably isn't any rubber banding for the cars ahead of you, and that is why it is so tough.
If you want the original recorded songs. Search for "Grindstone - Threshold, Hollow Eyes, Mir etc.".
1:06 that lip sync was perfect 😂
love this series keep it up

The new Tetris has a sick soundtrack! Don’t forget to make the cube out of 4 line pieces or 4 L pieces for extra bonus… like so:
llll or L7L7
Pretty sure that the track “swampy depot” is a play on the Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains) solo album Boggy Depot, which also released in 1998.

The physics in this are hilarious, it's like your tires are barely touching the ground when you turn.

It's kinda hillarious how you know practically zero about cars but are semi decent at racing games.
Your "Corolla" is a Porsche 911 and your "Corvette" is a Ferrari F40.
