Entirely. It's a great talent of Japanese developers to take something that already exists and make it even more interesting, oftentimes looking for something new they could bring in and give us a unique experience.
Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero, Midnight Club 3, NFS HP2, & SRS were some of the first few games I owned between my Gamecube and PS2. TDU is one of the goats too!
@@r35killa I still look at the game disc to this day! I just wish we could have the original developers of these racing games cuz these new guys are LAZY and GRREEEEDYY📈💰
TDU is one od the best Open World Racing Game for only one reason: it has narrow streets unlike the other racing games that have super ultra mega wide streets, IRL, hardly any city has wide streets like the open world racing games show
It's sad that most racing games now don't even compare anymore. This isn't nostalgia, it's just be hating the overuse of microtransactions, and dlc in a lot of them
wel is have a new game on the Xbox . and i thake that one for my liitle brother child . its for 3 years and up . well its funny like hell . and i have more fun with that lol beach buggy racing (i have the one with hotweels ) and the game coffin dodgers what is a lot of fun to do . Just some tips to try or look for TH-cam for IT. i have my fun with the childeren .
And the gameplay feels worse, car handling doesn't feel good at all most of the times. Maybe only in Forza.. at least the handling is good in that game.
Yep they are. I still remember that I gor UG2 on physical two disks at christmas of some year. I bought myself MW years later, but somehow... I lost the disk, but the box I still have. The yellow EA Classics box.
Hell yeah SplitSecond was the only game that gave me literall goosebumps every friggin 5 minutes, still playing this one from time to time and it still looks good.
Burnout Revenge is my favorite Burnout game of all time It was so chaotic and destructive, and it’s sense of speed was incredible as well as the soundtrack
For me, it was Burnout 3 Takedown just by a bit. Both games have incredible soundtracks, great damage physics/models and for me, I prefer Takedown mainly because the takedowns were so cool.
@@stukafish4256 Revenge literally have same takedown mechanics + added more visual stuff to them and gameplay stuff I don't get why people prefer 3 over Revenge, maybe nostalgia idk
Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition is still, without fault, THE greatest arcade racing game to ever release. While it is dated in its graphics and some of its difficulty scaling (fuck the Autocross events), it has the best package of gameplay, aesthetics, and soundtrack a racing game could offer.
@@Ulissescars that too, I remember beating the whole game with the sport bike class the first time since they offered Exotic-beating performance for the price of Tuners
The PS2 version was developed by EA Black Box, so it looks and feels a lot more like the later NFS games. Hot Pursuit 2 on the other platforms, developed by EA Seattle, felt very similar to Porsche Unleashed. EA used this game to see if Black Box had what it took to take over making NFS for the next generation of consoles, and they arguably produced the strongest and most memorable titles from HP2 to Undercover. Personally, I suspect that the Black Box team was not a huge fan of DLC expansions and pay-to-win mechanics, and EA's shareholders saw that stuff as a major cash cow. So they axed Black Box and assigned NFS to a studio that had more malleable ethics department.
@@mikezobl9602 Most probably, Black Box was closed because of the negative critics of the fans about the lasts NFS games released in the later of 2000s. NFS Pro Street and The Run had DLCs.
Even 15 years later i still can't believe it how beautiful Formula One Championship Edition i'm speechless... Big surprise was Enthusia i wasn't aware of the game until now and i want to play it the sound is amazing
Enthusia had the bad luck of being released the same year as Gran Turismo 4, but those who've played the game know just how underappreciated it is. It's a hidden gem and I fully recommend everyone to give it a try if they haven't yet.
I miss when video games were about fun, instead of realism. It's why I always prefer playing older games on older consoles like NFS Underground 2 & Burnout 3 for example.
Need for Speed underground 1 and 2, midnight club dub edition and juiced 2 hot import nights were my childhood. So many memories from playing those games, and looking at the game dang the lighting on NFSU 2 is still not bad
Sadly you are right, mamy games just have a crapload of content but the gameplay is just boring. And it's not because of memories. I bought a PS3 not so long ago with some games and they still are blast to play. What surprised me was the first Motorstorm - nothing new to see in 2022 but it just is good to play and I spend the entire weekend playing it. It's not us, it's the devs playing it safe and trying to market to everyone.
I have fond memories of so many of these games; this just brought me back to my childhood Also weirdly enough, Juiced was the game that got me to learn about betting odds way back when it was irrelevant to my life lmao
Emulation just depends on the game and console. I frequently play quite a few of the PS2 games listed here at 1080p and 60+ fps using PCSX2 on an antique I7 Dell optiplex with a gtx1650. Same deal with PS1 games using Duckstation, and GameCube games using Dolphin. It doesn't take a crazy powerful pc or an engineering degree to figure any of it out, there is a ton of tutorials on TH-cam that can walk you through setting it up step by step if ya need. I still own the majority of the consoles and physical games I grew up with, but now days anything older then PS3/Xbox 360 I just play on my PC via emulation. My actual PS2 plugged into my 65 inch tv looks pretty awful using either original Sony component cables or a PS2 to HDMI adapter, but the same game played on PC via emulation and upscaling actually looks halfway decent on the same screen.
I love the aesthetic of early 2000s videogame late night racing. The graphics, the colors, bright lights in a dark and dimly lit area. Perfect aesthetic.
Time flies. Some of us that played these games are in our 30s and 40s, the unks and pops that bought them for us in their 60s and 70s, maybe lucky enough to own a skyline, 911, m3, or Z06, It's wild. My favs, GT3, first racing game I played outside an arcade, GT4-took a skinny supermodel and gave her meats, All the burnouts; till today, the only racer that comes close to it's damage modeling is BeamNG, which isn't even a racer. NFS2 and the TDUs, the best immersive open world racers. If some wealthy billionaire could fund a BeamNG clone, You'd have an open world sim with a good enough physics engine to build the most grown up racer to date. If it could manage 80% of the graphics quality of GT7, You'd have the open world equivalent of iRacing and could command the membership fees for years to come. That said, thanks to the spirit/spirits who put this video together, brought back memories. Real talk, haven't seen flatout since 07 until now, I saw the name and was just waiting for the live dummy to fly out. You and whoever are the real MVPs.
Only one I would have added to the list was Ridge Racer Type 4 - ahead of its time in environmental design, car selection, livery editing and (this may just be my opinion here) the greatest original soundtrack ever created for a racing game.
also: 2002: test drive 2002 toca race driver pro v-rally 3 2006: la street racing cars the video game gtr2 evolution gt 2007: cars mater national championship 2008: burnout paradise race driver grid 2009: nfs: shift 2010: hot pursuit remake 2011: driver san francisco cars 2 dirt 3 2012: forza horizon
Cool list of games. But there is few that, i personally, like. And those games are: Road Rash 3D. Revolt. R.C Cars. Outrun 2006 Coast 2 Coast. Fire & Forget: Final Assault. Moorhuhn Kart. Offroad Racing. Smash Cars. Racedriver GRID. Burnout Paradise.
Burnout 3, Revenge and Dominator are the best Burnout Games ever. Also i would add to that list: - Porsche Challenge (PS1) - Automobile Lamborghini (N64) - Splashdown 2 (PS2) - Wave Race (N64) - OnRush (PS4) - Extreme G3 (PS4) - Ridge Racer Unbounded (PC)
Oh yes, thank you for including Wangan Midnight (PS2) too! That game is one of my favourite racing games in PS2, the cars selection maybe not much, and you can't customize the cars too But the game is actually pretty unique, it's basically fighting game, but with Cars (yes, you literally have a healthbar for your car and your enemy), and don't forget the 3 legendary cars in Wangan Midnight Akio's Devil Z Shima's Blackbird Reina's GT-R *Note: to understand more of the story, you could either play the Arcade version (Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune), or just watch the Anime
All of my psp games on phone are best even is old like burnout dominator,outrun 2006,nfs carbon otc,midnight club 3 dub edition,initial d street stage and more.
Who thought that I will see here that shining pearl of my last few years, by the name of Juiced. I'm impressed that some TH-camrs like you, or KuruHS remember about it.
I will die on the hill that burnout 3 is the best arcade racing game ever made, it's so tightly designed and every race feels like a brawl to the front
my favorites growing up were Project Gotham Racing 2, Midnight Club 3, Juiced, Burnout Paradise, Mario Kart Wii, and NFS Carbon (had that on the wii that was wild)
Nfs most wanted 2011 has a underrated multiplayer since it just a Mashup of wacky game modes like in burnout plus a bit of racing like nfs the ability to change performance mid drive, the play list would change class of cars so it was not always super cars or if you had the dlc the fast and furious 1970 charger man that thing was OP. Fun and whacky challenges that gave you different license plates like getting a victory in a race on rims and in multiplayer there only 3 ways for that to happen either you burn your tires out you hit traffic but don't crash or another player tries crashing you out and hits you good but you survive and usually if you did get a flat you would just take the 3 seconds to equipped new tires to. The game also counted the amount of cars you "mastered" which was just drive 500 miles, unlock all upgrades, and get all the takedown color schemes. Needless to say the multiplayer had ton of content and single player was only good at setting up the exp glitch where you get a butt ton of exp for every single player event you got gold in and also every record you held against your friends I was getting close to 1.2 million exp per login and that exp went towards your multiplayer player rank since both ranks were shared even though both had different unlocks if I remember 50 million exp was for max level than another 100 million exp for max level prestige.
really liked juiced...decided to replay it few years ago and wanted to max out all cars but I was really sad when i found out that there is garage space limit :(
I'm looking at all of these videos trying to find the name of the racing game I grew up playing, but the really sad part is I almost can't remember any details about it whatsoever, the only part I remember is that if you had a regular music CD in your PC then the game would take tracks from that. It was my aunt who bought it from some discount bin so it was probably very old game maybe older than NFS2. So frustrating, I'm thinking maybe it was gokarts or maybe just that the cars were a bit on the smaller side. it wasn't overly arcadey. and it was probably actually a bad game (I'm just curious for nostalgic reasons)
Nfs, most wanted, underground 1 and 2, and street racing syndicate was my all 3 best racing game, and a little bonus... Tokyo xtreme racer zero, countless night when I was a kid
wow i feel old having played every single one of these games upon release, still have TER3, SRS, juiced and all NFS... wish i still had auto modeliista tho
I've played all Forza Horizon games so far and with so much production value and talent behind it it couldn't just bring the same experience as TDU. Even The Crew 2 is ahead of it in pretty much everything but graphics.
Its hard to explain, but I think The Most Wanted 2005 still looks good. Mostly because of the weird colors which are in this game
Not to mention the Xbox 360 version, its definitely a weird case where the grunge/realistic approach somehow held up so damn well.
@@acoolrocket its just because after resident evil 4 almost all high budget games had a brown filter, which lasted until Dead Space was released
Nfs carbon looks better tho
@@Critical365 no it doesn't
@@fernandotorres4489 no bitches?
I'm sure we can all appreciate Auto Modellista's ambitious art design.
man I loved the cel-shaded art style of this game, I really wish more racing games had this kind of style. The closest so far is Inertial Drift.
Abso-lutely
Too bad ther is no other car racing game in cell shading
@@aleceiffel5641 There is, just not in as heavily of an artistic style as Auto Modellista. GT Cube is one that comes to mind specifically.
Entirely. It's a great talent of Japanese developers to take something that already exists and make it even more interesting, oftentimes looking for something new they could bring in and give us a unique experience.

Test Drive Unlimited was amazing for it's time. To have such a huge map back then was wild. I loved playing that game and the second when I was a kid.
But the bug of the invisible Police Cars kills it for me
Still playing it tho 😅
@@Dullias isvisible police and wild traffic can be easily fixed by locking game process at one core
One of my favourite racing games
carshopping, clothshopping, cottageshopping... it was a blast back in my days and I'm so looking forward to playing TDU: The Solar Crown
@@ПогодинСергей-ч5п I don't recall having any of those, and limiting to one core seems stupid. If it's a framerate related issue, just lock to 60.
Glad to see Motorstorm hasn't been forgotten. Wish Sony would remember it too
TDU is one od the best Open World Racing Game for only one reason: it has narrow streets unlike the other racing games that have super ultra mega wide streets, IRL, hardly any city has wide streets like the open world racing games show
That's true. I still remember the achievement awarded for driving on every single street on Oahu.
It's sad that most racing games now don't even compare anymore. This isn't nostalgia, it's just be hating the overuse of microtransactions, and dlc in a lot of them
wel is have a new game on the Xbox .
and i thake that one for my liitle brother child .
its for 3 years and up .
well its funny like hell .
and i have more fun with that lol
beach buggy racing (i have the one with hotweels )
and the game coffin dodgers what is a lot of fun to do .
Just some tips to try or look for TH-cam for IT.
i have my fun with the childeren .
Holy shit ... I agreed 💯
Bunch of lazy blobs with pink goo in there heads sitting in a office doing nothing....sad just sad.
And the gameplay feels worse, car handling doesn't feel good at all most of the times. Maybe only in Forza.. at least the handling is good in that game.
I hate how NFS push that mobile powerslide or drift compated to NFSU,U2,MW,Carbon car handling 😔
Juiced, UG, UG2, MW and Carbon are just 🔥🔥
Yep they are. I still remember that I gor UG2 on physical two disks at christmas of some year. I bought myself MW years later, but somehow... I lost the disk, but the box I still have. The yellow EA Classics box.
True.
Theres no missing these games when you still own your original copies and play them. Just shows how good these games are.
Should've included Split Second and Driver San Francisco as well, masterpieces! And the first Forza Horizon as the best one in the series for many.
Hell yeah SplitSecond was the only game that gave me literall goosebumps every friggin 5 minutes, still playing this one from time to time and it still looks good.
I think they mainly put early to mid 2000s games
Blur also suffered the same fate as Split Second did
I also remember split second. It's a great game.

@@troll_486 Yes but I think 3's takedown mechanics were more cooler and the takedowns felt more arcade-like.

I personally think midnight club 2 is better
tbf Autocross event wasn't that hard as long as I time my braking/handbrakes properly, but I understand why you feel that way

The Golden Era of Racing Games! Happy to play the most of them back in the days
burnout 3, gran turismo 4, SRS, NFSMW, NFS Carbon, NFS UG1&UG2, Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix.... man i miss playing this game on my PS2 😥
Midnight club 3 and nfs underground were the ultimate badasses of underground street racing
Hot Pursuit 2 was the one for me. I remember looking at the stats of the McLaren F1 and it blowing my 8 year old mind

Fire & Forget: Final Assault.
Moorhuhn Kart.
Offroad Racing.
Smash Cars.
Racedriver GRID.
Burnout Paradise.
Dude burnout 3 and juiced are still some of my all time favorites❤️
Burnout3 is a great "arcade" especially when you try to play it with someone else in turns trying to finish a hard race.
TheBoss: "Old but gold racing games"
Also TheBoss: **puts SRS**
The rest of the games on the list are awesome and still hold up to this day. But SRS freaking sucks
F1 Championship Edition looks fantastic!
What a time to have been alive and young when these games were out
Burnout 3, Revenge and Dominator are the best Burnout Games ever.
Also i would add to that list:
- Porsche Challenge (PS1)
- Automobile Lamborghini (N64)
- Splashdown 2 (PS2)
- Wave Race (N64)
- OnRush (PS4)
- Extreme G3 (PS4)
- Ridge Racer Unbounded (PC)
Damn shame I never got the chance to play Auto Modellista, that game looks stunning! The artstyle is just awesome!
Gran Turismo 3 was insane graphics for PS2! Especially the wet pavement on the SS track or the sun sets!
Oh yes, thank you for including Wangan Midnight (PS2) too!
That game is one of my favourite racing games in PS2, the cars selection maybe not much, and you can't customize the cars too
But the game is actually pretty unique, it's basically fighting game, but with Cars (yes, you literally have a healthbar for your car and your enemy), and don't forget the 3 legendary cars in Wangan Midnight
Akio's Devil Z
Shima's Blackbird
Reina's GT-R
*Note: to understand more of the story, you could either play the Arcade version (Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune), or just watch the Anime

Needless to say the multiplayer had ton of content and single player was only good at setting up the exp glitch where you get a butt ton of exp for every single player event you got gold in and also every record you held against your friends I was getting close to 1.2 million exp per login and that exp went towards your multiplayer player rank since both ranks were shared even though both had different unlocks if I remember 50 million exp was for max level than another 100 million exp for max level prestige.
really liked juiced...decided to replay it few years ago and wanted to max out all cars but I was really sad when i found out that there is garage space limit :(
gran turismo 4 is the goldest of gold racing games. Though I do have a special place for NFS MW05 and Carbon
I'm looking at all of these videos trying to find the name of the racing game I grew up playing, but the really sad part is I almost can't remember any details about it whatsoever, the only part I remember is that if you had a regular music CD in your PC then the game would take tracks from that. It was my aunt who bought it from some discount bin so it was probably very old game maybe older than NFS2. So frustrating, I'm thinking maybe it was gokarts or maybe just that the cars were a bit on the smaller side. it wasn't overly arcadey. and it was probably actually a bad game (I'm just curious for nostalgic reasons)
I really miss Automodellista. We need one racing game with celshading again
Woah, so glad that you actually featured wangan midnight in this video! Sick!
Todos geniales a su manera. Cuando los podíamos llevar a todas partes sin depender del internet.😁 que época y que disfrute. GT3 memorable
Street Racing Syndicate was LIT. Shame to see no mention of Project Gotham Racing or GRID.
NFS Underground 1 & 2, Most Wanted 2005, Carbon & Undercover (PC)!
*The true definition of epic & cool street racing childhood.*
Nfs, most wanted, underground 1 and 2, and street racing syndicate was my all 3 best racing game, and a little bonus... Tokyo xtreme racer zero, countless night when I was a kid
Juiced is such a special game and no one knows about it ❤️
F1 Championship Edition….LOVE IT
Fast furious Tokyo PS2. Drift in this game has my respect. You really need to know the maneuvers. Acell off. Power over, manji, kansei... Clutch kick.
Great video my friend! Bring back good memories👌🔥😃
wow i feel old having played every single one of these games upon release, still have TER3, SRS, juiced and all NFS... wish i still had auto modeliista tho
Man, thank you for remember flat out 2, best game in my life. NFSUndercover, midnightclub 2
This actually makes me sad, I play a huge majority of these games. What happened to the racing genre 😢
Juiced Is pretty dope tho....👀
You missed Split Second and Grid - both incredible games
I think this list can be longer
Ps2 is the golden age of racing games, there are too much iconic racing game in one era
And also, please add the Mashed game to the following parts, as for me, this is an undeservedly forgotten masterpiece, albeit a budget one.
Dont forget Crash'n'Burn !!!
Still a masterpiece of fun.
Nfs Carbon is my most favourite racing game. Despite of short story, this game is fabulous.
Auto Modelista was an overlooked racing game had so much potential and the soundtrack was loft and laid back too 😢
I need to play some of these games.
MC Dub 3, TDU, NFS U2 and Colin McRae rallye is goat for me, but if i must choose only one game its gona be Test Drive Unlimited!
I've played all Forza Horizon games so far and with so much production value and talent behind it it couldn't just bring the same experience as TDU. Even The Crew 2 is ahead of it in pretty much everything but graphics.
Burnout 3: Takedown was just perfect! ❤
I'm so happy to see enthusia here
