I know nobody at EA or Criterion will see this but I hope the people who worked on the updates for NFS Unbound when everyone else moved to work on battlefield get the recognition they deserve for their hard work
Honestly, Dom Mclennon's music style reminds me a lot of Ola Strandh's stuff, the guy that does Tom Clancy's Division music, the buildup, the tempo shift and the overall instrument composition. It's great, it fits the theme of the activity and I'm all for this guy making a return to release more bangers
@@GoldenEDM_2018 You contradict yourself within your own comment, if music appreciation is "subjective", then that also means there are "younger ones" who dislike that kind of music. And they do.
TDU has serious issues but you and others don't give it credit for the things it does do well, everyone 100% hates it and refuses to acknowledge it does anything well, even people who haven't played it. They've just added a new map for god's sake and improved steering wheel animations (as the community asked for), houses and casino are coming, they're moving in the right direction, people need to give it more of a fair chance.
I was kinda expecting games like LMU or Automobilista 2 for Best Simulator Racing Game... But I understand that this channel isn't really concentrated on hardcore sims but i really do hope to see AC Evo this year
I took a shot every time that kid said “say my name” and by the time the video was over I was completely hammered lmao. But unbound definitely wins racing game of the year imo. I rarely play video games anymore due to being busy but when I do get on, I find myself playing unbound for 2-3 hours at a time. Well done Criterion and thanks to the Kaizen team for listening to the enthusiasts!
GT7 beats Motorfest. The new Motorfest island is absolutely pointless as it seems to be only The Chase Squad and Rivals ant that’s it. I assumed we’d have more playlists on the new island by now
13:27 buy that 3D printer and make the awards yourself Theo BTW, they've released a demo for the NFSU2 remake in Unreal Engine 5, I hope you're making a video on that. Looking forward to the new racing games that'll be coming out in 2025 and 2026.
I am in disbelief that Test Drive won the worst game. I have so much hope they can turn it around. I literally enjoyed this game more than forza like idk what’s with people glazing forza and nfs 😭😭🙏
I mean they have only played Forza and modern NFS their entire life and listen to youtubers and have no opinion of their own. Forza Motorsport was 100% the biggest flop. TDU SC is also only a AA not a AAA game like forza and nfs
I have weird takes, I have played the big ones, unbound, motorsport, bit of forza but there are two games that shoukd get honorable mentions when we talk abiut arcade racers and they are both of hotwheels unleashed games, I think they are great
Who the hell voted for NFS Unbound's map over TDU Solar Crown?? I'd say it was pretty close between Solar Crown and Motorfest, and now unquestionably a win for Solar Crown with the Ibiza expansion. But anyway this comment will probably get a ton of hate from people who think Solar Crown is the work of the devil or something.
I completely agree, the only good thing about Solar Crown is the map and the sense of speed, but I can also understand why people choose Unbound. The game was almost in unplayable state, so people probably just left it completely before even exploring the map further, meanwhile the new Lockdown mode makes me appreciate the complexity and the layers of the map in Unbound compared to Heat for example.
@tompramanaaccount8892 Unbound certainly has a good map, and yeah I guess it's opinion based. I just find it hard to see how it compares to Solar Crown and its endless secret areas and dirt trails which can be explored, as well as Ibiza. As for Solar Crown I'd argue the driving feel and car interactivity are also far beyond NFS or Motorfest, great music and atmosphere in game too. But ofc it's limited by many issues such as the gameplay loop, awful servers, online only, etc
@@bobmarley6306 Ah yes I forgot to mention the driving feel, it's also great I completely agree, is just the other issues that really leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. At the end of the day you can't really feel the driving if you can't play the game.
Don't forget it's just a popularity contest (that isn't supposed to be taken seriously), motorfest and unbound got everything because his audience only plays those 2 games (and horizon)
Lol people voted for unbound as a meme for sure its the only games soundtrack ive ever muted (im not saying every song is trash just that some are so bad i couldn't take it anymore) and im not the only one the guy i race with most muted it and hes from another generation then me so its not even a generational thing)
Although it's improved since launch, the current Forza Motorsport title will never shake off the stink of "built from the ground up". The game will never be what Turn 10 promised.
@@tompramanaaccount8892Mainly the physics and the car model.They meant for a completely new experience，different from any Forza before.They want to restart this ip with the new FM
Am I living in a parallel dimension or something? Literally no mentioning of the adapted game Drag by i-Racing Motorsports now going under the name ExoCross. The most overlooked game award of 2024. ExoCross.🏆
Oh man!!! I played SOOOOO much Zero! I loved that game... The drift one they came out with after wasn't great. Do we know what platforms this is going to be on??
The fact that people voted for TDUSC and Unbound more than they did CarX Street for Best Map shows how delusional everyone is. But Motorfest deserved that so oh well
Love all your vids man, am I wrong in sain I love nfs payback, but and here's the kicker I can't understand the card system in payback I'm just a bloke that plays the odd game, so I am a casual car game player. If you have any way to explain the card system hit me up please... Have a great new year pal, and hit the asphalt hard in 2025..
Best progression had to be Forza Horizon 5 even if it doesn't have a story , festival playlist is a good way to keep the game alive unlike need for speed unbound (the one you mentioned) complete the update story and there's nothing to do anymore
yes! More Blackpanthaa won the best racing game creator, congrats! 👏👏👏 i hope Theo would personally hand the trophy over to the ch owner of More Blackpanthaa!
I know nobody at EA or Criterion will see this but I hope the people who worked on the updates for NFS Unbound when everyone else moved to work on battlefield get the recognition they deserve for their hard work
And they nailed to keep the game updated unfortunately compared to heat and payback
Well they couldn't afford to abandon 2 games in a row, so this time they worked on it.
I think Nfs Unbound is the new generation game is best my favorite racing game

It is. Yall just too old for it. We younger ones enjoy it, and before you say something sh1t, music appreciation is subjective.

Then a user named "Reggie" disagreed with him.

Only on pvp content.
Nah carx street best map location
Nah tdusc
Imagine NFS Unbound would have a similar action music to MW
Something stinks, the community of unbound players is not that big

@dragnor6810 Very good point
The second best Racing Games Content creator after Theo in my opinion is Trigger aka (Militia Gaming Community MGC)
his content really helps me a lot for my summit runs every week
Doing a 2024 awards in 2025 is peak year opening content
We need more of this every year! Much better than game awards
Crew def shoulda won over a few of those NFS ones, ppl voting just cause it’s nfs
Brother, not even in another dimension does unbound best Motorfest....😂😂😂
9:17 If you listen closely, it sampled a little bit of Heat Level 3 chase music from Most Wanted
so sick
There should be a Best multiplayer racing game category as well Theo
That Yasin guy from TH-cam chat was serious to make Theo say his name ... 😂😂bro chill
You should check out Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune. It's a great arcade racer series with banging tunes, although it's arcade exclusive
Lol people voted for unbound as a meme for sure its the only games soundtrack ive ever muted (im not saying every song is trash just that some are so bad i couldn't take it anymore) and im not the only one the guy i race with most muted it and hes from another generation then me so its not even a generational thing)
Uhhhh I beg to differ, yeah I might shit on forza Motorsport buttttt their physics feel absolutely amazing on wheel especially drifting
TCM should get best music award! Also where was GT7 in that category?
Personally I feel like the soundtrack isn't really memorable it feel like it's full of random royalty free stuff even after changing stations
@@dragonildreamy161 Kiss? Busta Rhymes? DJ Quik? Airbourne? John Carpenter? Fatboy Slim? Blondie? The Trammps?
Meanwhile NFS Unbound soundtrack is random music from different countries and barely good songs. Fifa has better music than Unbound
You’ve really blown the budget out of the water this year!
Good lord! Unbound's soundtrack is HORRIBLE.
Most of awards gotten by need for speed ladies and gentlemen ( anime game )
