Oh god I remember renting RPM Tuning for the PS2 when I was a kid... I remember that game being SO hard it was almost unplayable, at least for a 10-something-year-old
I remember this game SO WELL. As soon as I've heard "This game was also named RPM Tunning", my eyes widely opened. I remember years ago, a time I went with my parents to a mall just to find an enormous box full of low-budget PC games. They all were 1 euro, so we got a bunch of them. I specially remember RPM Tunning and another game, a boat racing game, which I also have the disk of. Anyways, I remember playing this game and going through a lot of it back with my old Windows XP, I never had any issues. No crashes on cutscenes, no crashes playing, no stuttering, no nothing. Actually, for 1 euro, the game was okay. Sure it was crap and old but... My PC also was crap and old, and the game still ran flawlessly! I bought the truck, as it was the best starter vehicle in terms of performance as far as I know, and I do remembet playing through a lot of the game. You sometimes got into pink slip races, where if you won you could get rid of your car and own your rival's car. Also remember one specific part I bought. Drivetrain. I bought an AWD drivetrain, expecting the truck to turn somewhat better, or at least drift, and I got so pissed off... It still wouldn't turn, nor powerslide, or anything. I still own a physical copy of the game which I just searched for and found. I lost the original box but the disk is still working fine and everything! Honestly, the game was okay, sure it had nothing to do against games like NFS or MC. This was just an attempt to make a low-budget NFS which felt lifeless and too simple and monotone at many times, yet it was a game I could run no issues, one of the few I could run actually, so I was okay with it. But I do remember the cutscene peds being stretched out and too small, my resolution and everything was fine, but these characters looked too short and stretched I went nuts at the first cutscene. Thx god u re-uploaded this, even though you're roasting it, feels good not to be that one guy that played something no one ever heard of. Just to clarify, I ran this at a 32 BIT Windows XP SP3, with a monocore 3.1 Ghz and an Nvidia GT210. I may reinstall it just for the jokes actually. And I forgot to mention how A W E S O M E this video editing is, I'd watch stuff like this all day non-stop.
There's more to incompatibility than just OS, drivers, hardware, screen resolution. I'm sure his hardware is 90% at fault for the game not running as it should.
I played the prequel to this, Midnight Outlaw Illegal Street Drag on PC. One of my family friends had a PC version of the game, and it was very interesting to say the least. It wasn't as good as NFS Underground, but it sure was low budget and fun
17:30 As soon as I saw that Games For Windows Live banner on the box cover, I understood exactly why this game just flat out wouldn't work on most anything. Even if they properly deactivated it (ha right), just the presence of GWFL's code means the game expects to be run on earlier builds of XP, because man Microsoft really didn't know what to do with PC gaming back then. That said, you definitely nailed the style you were going for with this video, and it's quite fantastic. I never would have guessed that a zero-profile shovelware game would have such a strange and convoluted history to it!
@@cannedbeverage7687 Doubtful, given that this is a bargain bin game that probably got zero support after it was pushed out the door. Bethesda had to go through the trouble of completely scraping every last line of GWFL code from Fallout 3 just to get it working on newer systems.
@@NorthStarBlue1 It's entirely possible that GFWL box art is fake, as even today people take the box art of modern games and slap the GFWL banner on top. Also, this game is from 2005, while GFWL wasn't a thing before 2006 or 2007 I think.
@@cannedbeverage7687 Could be, though given how many hands this game apparently passed through it may have also been re-released under a different publisher later on to fulfill a retail commitment (you need to release X number of games a year or we won't give you shelf space anymore; Walmart in particular was notorious for that one). I honestly can't be sure anymore.
-Fallout 3 from GOG despite having a LIVE button worked out of the box, the radio stutter problem can be easily fixed with DSOAL / HRTF file from Fallout 3 Nexus, extract it to the same folder as the executable -Battlestations Pacific works without Xlive in Windows 10 (xliveless) -DIRT 2 works without Xlive in Windows 10 (xliveless) -Juiced 2 works without Xlive in Windows 10 (xliveless)
Great video! I'm really enjoying this wave of TH-camrs who seem to have gone to the Jon Bois school of narrative storytelling. I can tell you worked really hard on this, it shows through especially in the writing. I know it's probably hard to do alongside your other style of content, but please make more like this, even if it takes a long time!
I remember playing RPM Tuning as a child, but on the PS2. And I think it's a lot more stable than the PC version. But still has random freezes during loadings. Great video btw Shinyodd, very well made script and editing.
My grandma never bought me video games, but my mom bought some cheap old racing game called Adrenalin or something idk, I had lots of fun with that game.
5:49 - that's not CNI Games, that's OniGames, Polish game distributor specialized in low budget stuff like that. They were selling games in newsagents stores for 20zł (at the time average price of a new game was >100zł). And even though it was so cheap, it had implemented StarForce, a russian copy of SecuROM which in this game was somehow cocked up and didn't work properly with most CD drives (it was fixed by a patch; for some reason other games using Starforce never had this problem). I didn't know about the patch (I didn't even had internet back then) but somehow I managed to run the game by opening one of the exe files in the installed game folder, but it only ran in a window (or maybe I didn't know how to put on full screen, I was a dumb kid back then) and framerate after first couple of missions was dropping to literally unplayable levels.
Im sorry that youtube blacklisted your video I'll say it again, this vid is a bloody masterpiece. The editing, commentary, music and visuals is just perfect. The amount of research put into it is ashtonishing.
I HAD RPM TUNING ON PS2!! It was nowhere near as buggy as the PC version though. It looked good and it ran well, surprisingly. There were some weird features in the game that weren't mentioned. I remember there being the "action" button (or something like that) that was like a minor boost to whatever you were doing. So steering becomes "action steering" which steered slightly further, accelerate became "action accelerate" which was akin to pressing the pedal harder, you get the idea. You could also remove the roof of your car entirely, which I hadn't seen before in a game. It was a frustrating game at best, I sold it along with some other games a while back and I regret doing so now that I've watched this video. I've never seen it in any stores since, not even at flea markets in the junk pile. I thought I dreamed it up until I saw it here. Thank you Shinyodd for reminding me of this weird piece of gaming history that resided on my shelf for a few months, keep up the great content!
As a guy who subscribed soley because of the horrifying cars you and your chat make, I would love to see more of these types of videos. It's such a fun thing to watch. Beautiful work, i hope you don't die from these games.
I actually played RPM Tuning in 2008, because my friend lent me a magazine with compilation of racing games! I played it everyday day after school on my Windows XP computer, and as I was a dumbass back then I couldn't pass the first mission for three months (also everytime you crash in this game a cutscene plays during which you can't move, but the enemies sure as hell can). I remember that my only favourite car in this game was violet Celica. One time unfortunatelly when I was playing it crashed on me and it never turned on again. Thank you Shinyodd for reminding me of this game! I sure felt a little bit of nostalgia! Also I blame this game for my awful taste in music
Same here, I've played it a lot when I was younger, judging by your nick you're from Poland, so most likely we even got it from the same magazine lmao. Yeah I also feel so much nostalgia to the game, in fact RPM Tuning was the game that introduced me to racing genre. Progressing through the story was painful and annoying but oh boy, the happiness on my face when I could finally drive the viper after finishing the game hahah Never felt so happy finishing any other game
I've played RPM Tuning a lot when I was a kid. It's just a rendering glitch, it never has happened when I played it though. And yes, RPM tuning is exact the same game as Midnight Outlaw: 6 Hours to SunUp
@@oandgw I bought the Collection, which does include Flatout 3, which sucks, but it also includes Ultimate Carnage, which is an better version of Flatout 2.
I remember my grand father buying me this game. From the dollar general I mind you, the game lagged so bad it crashed his computer every time I went to play it.
For how much TH-cam has fucked you over I respect the fact that it doesn’t get in your way. Even though you don’t upload often you still give us good content. Thank you, we appreciate it
Damn boi, the editing, music and commentery is absolutely amazing. I was little sceptical at first about your content but you got me good on this one. Such a shame that TH-cam decided to screw you over. Liked and subscribed brother.
Holy shit, the editing on this. It's like you've transcended whatever you were doing previously into a whole new dimension. Can't wait for the next one!
I genuinely enjoyed this video. It was an absolute roller coaster except it was a bit different. This one felt like it had a lot more time and effort put into it. I really like that. Keep it up Shiny.
You reminded me that 15 years ago I read about this game on an italian PC gaming magazine. It was so shit that they didn't even give it a proper page, they only gave it a quarter of a page, something I don't think I've seen in the fifty-ish issues I've read of that magazine. Thankfully that issue has been scanned and uploaded to archive.org, Giochi Per Il Mio Computer 105 - Luglio 2005 for those interested. Here's that particular page. imgur.com/a/d2wDf0h
I actually have a CD version of RPM Tuning on PC! XD I have no idea when and where did I get it from but it is right in my house and playing this is an absolutely terrible experience, but quite funny tho. But I guess that one day my CD will become a legendary item
Never tried it out back then? I also own a physical disk copy of RPM Tunning. I remember playing it back in the days, had no issues to run it back then, and I actually enjoyed it a bunch, my PC couldn't handle simillar racing games back then, so I sticked to this one.
Oh man, I had it too, RPM Tuning with other budget games on disc like Pac Man clone, actually as much as it was bad, it was somehow chilling with this free ride mode, also to answer some of Shinyodd stuff, this road that "had potential" actually was used in career for one race, also game fog thing was absence, can't remember if there were crashes thou .-.
Sorry that this video's been caught in yt's bitchy side World's just falling apart on us from disappointing humans to mindless websites Also 9:50 When BMW gets inspired from the Harlequin
11:38 I was really hoping you were going to say V-Tec and then insert a "BAAHHHHHHH" meme or something Because realistically that's what people see after engaging V-tec
I loved this, so much I'll rewatch it! Shame TH-cam tried to wreck this, but it's okay, your fans always come back around. On a lighter note, this was an amazing video which you don't find many of on TH-cam, hope this has given you a motive to make more content like this! Thank you Shiny 🔥
Freaking RPM Tuning. Game that was broke from the very start and yet still was sold in local shops. I remember hours spent on thinking what is wrong and that maybe my PC was too weak for this amazing game.
This is such a massive jump in quality you’d almost think this wasn’t a mockumentary, but I seriously love this kind of thing, it puts a smile on my face.
I just looked this game up because I randomly remembered it at 3am, I used to play it on my moms really old CRT monitored computer with my brother and this is the ONLY video that exists about it. I appreciate this video so much. Thank you, this is a big part of my childhood. Don’t be sorry for me I actually did turn out okay in life 😂
OH. MY. GOD. When I saw the thumbnail I burst out laughing lmao. This is the worst racing game I'VE ACTUALLY PLAYED :D Circa 2012 all I had to play games on was a shitty old Windows XP PC, and I came across this thing on an internet café that happened to sell a handful of boxed mid-2000 games. As the naive 12 year old I was, I saw the cover and thought "This looks like a Need for Speed game! It must be fun!" and bought the damn thing. I took it home, installed it and... it worked perfectly fine. Maybe the Steam version is screwed, but this boxed copy ran flawlessly on my Windows XP PC (and with a few crashes on 7 when I tried it on another computer later on), cutscenes and all. I also remember messing around with the free roam mode and never encountering "the fog". Everything went to hell when I tried to play the story mode, though. I don't know if you were playing with a steering wheel or something, but I remember trying to play with the keyboard and having to deal with the fact that a little tap on one of the arrow keys would steer the car by 35° or so, making the game borderline unplayable. In fact, the reason I never finished the game was because I couldn't win one of the races due to the horrible controls. I revisited it from time to time (due to my lack of other games to play) but I eventually lost all patience. I had to get rid of it, but I wasn't going to leave it on the streets so some other unfortunate soul could play it. It had to be destroyed. So I introduced it to the trash. (I wrote pretty much the same comment on the original video, so I recreated it here both to share my story and help the video get traction. Fuck you, TH-cam).
@@Shinyodd Nah, you're the hero going through shitty games (and investigating about them!) to entertain us. The time I spent rewriting this is nothing compared to the effort you put in the video. Please keep doing what you're doing!
I remember playing it as a kid, but as you I don't remember any problems or glitches . I even enjoyed it to some extend. This video brought back memories from the past...
part of me wants to make a street racing game where the pearlescent pant style is called "shiny and odd" and the description of the turbo charger upgrade says "Put a yin yang spinny thang on that bad boy!"
I this video was extremely entertaining and I even enjoy the fact that you put in the actual chapters into youtube so you can actually skip the video to those parts. Keep up the amazing work
It's a masterpiece. Reminded me of some of Emplemon's videos, however I mean that in the best way possible, and obviously the sense of humour is entirely different.
I just finnished this game on an emulator, and wow, the end is the most fastest one and odd i've ever saw. Cinematic super shot, plot twist and The end. With no credits... The game isn't that bad but it's seriously botched, physics problem, nitro boost glitch and overstearring at 90 km/h. 14/20 Bad cutscenes, bad acting unplayable on pc but it's really not that bad, the final plot twist make no sens and completely forgettable. But I played worse game that were licenced and they had budget to do it, but messing up the game. Midnight Outlaw: 6 Hours to SunUp/ RPM Tuning is an experience that you need to test ( not on pc) about what an unfinished game with great potential look like. I never finished it when i was a kid, I'm happy now that i did.
I'm gonna write this comment now, simply for youtubes algorythm to see some more activity here. And maybe also cause I can't be bothered to writ the comment that I left on the other video again :D Anyways, keep up the good work :D
Shiny this is videos that I've ever seen from you the editing is insanely good and I liked it I hope you make more like this soon I know it's a reupload I but it still good
"The fog" kind of reminds me of that glitch in The Simpsons Hit & Run, where if you beat the game twice and start again the road dissapears after homer's 2nd mission, making the game virtually unplayable
Spending $5 on this game is like dunking the money in water, ripping it up, flushing it, going to the sewage plant where it ends up, eating it, shitting it back out, lighting it on fire and throwing up on it to put it out.
I never found a TH-cam gamer who made me laugh so hard about an extinct bootleg racing game. @Shinyodd made my night actually. This video was less a game review and more like a @Coldfusion (a TH-cam channel) version of a psycho game development thriller XD.

There were some weird features in the game that weren't mentioned. I remember there being the "action" button (or something like that) that was like a minor boost to whatever you were doing.

I've played RPM Tuning a lot when I was a kid. It's just a rendering glitch, it never has happened when I played it though. And yes, RPM tuning is exact the same game as Midnight Outlaw: 6 Hours to SunUp
@@samcrashfull Maybe it's a bug of the "pc version" there could something they did wrong when rewriting the code for pcm
@@ivoferreira6700 I've played it on pc, my bet would be that it's just this copypasted game issue
@@samcrashfull meh, who really cares tho xD
*"Sunrise? Nah nah nah SunUp yeah that's the one!"*
The old video became the game's reputation, unknown and obscured.
Unrecognised
Well preserved
I love the editing in this video ! So well polished ! Keep up the amazing work
(11:05) he looks like a randomly generated Sim character
Looks androgynous too
I thought the worst racing games are "big rigs: over the road racing" or "flatout 3".
Flatout 2, as everyone knows, is amazing. It's a quid on Steam. One of the best deals right now.
@@oandgw not flatout 2 ehich is amazing but flatout 3 man
@@TheFedeGamer99 Yeah I know. I was just saying how good it's predecessor was.
@@oandgw
I bought the Collection, which does include Flatout 3, which sucks, but it also includes Ultimate Carnage, which is an better version of Flatout 2.
9:40 Also, Nigel has a transverse front mounted engine and rear wheel drive. Nice!
The amount of work you will put into finding these games, really impressive and it sucks that you had to reupload but gives me a excuse to rewatch!
This is probably one of the 4 videos I've ever wanted to like multiple times. Great video
I remember my grand father buying me this game. From the dollar general I mind you, the game lagged so bad it crashed his computer every time I went to play it.
For how much TH-cam has fucked you over I respect the fact that it doesn’t get in your way. Even though you don’t upload often you still give us good content. Thank you, we appreciate it
Damn boi, the editing, music and commentery is absolutely amazing. I was little sceptical at first about your content but you got me good on this one. Such a shame that TH-cam decided to screw you over. Liked and subscribed brother.
Holy crap top notch editing on this one Shiny, nice job!
This. Was absolutely a joy to watch. I never thought I'd actually enjoy watching a "documentary"? On a shite racing game from 2005. Amazing work man.
Holy shit, the editing on this. It's like you've transcended whatever you were doing previously into a whole new dimension. Can't wait for the next one!
I genuinely enjoyed this video. It was an absolute roller coaster except it was a bit different. This one felt like it had a lot more time and effort put into it. I really like that.
Keep it up Shiny.
He's back, I can't believe it.
I don't know how.
I don't know why.
But thank god you're back.
This is the highest production value video of yours I've seen and it makes me happy
Also sorry that TH-cam had to milk the last day of stress out of the 5 week cesspit that making this video probably was
Interesting, I've never heard of this game before and I can see why. I love the way you edited the video, it's sooo good!
Hearing Dance With The Dead at the end is such a pleasant surprise, they're such a good band and it's great to hear their music in others works.
absolutely!
You reminded me that 15 years ago I read about this game on an italian PC gaming magazine. It was so shit that they didn't even give it a proper page, they only gave it a quarter of a page, something I don't think I've seen in the fifty-ish issues I've read of that magazine.
Thankfully that issue has been scanned and uploaded to archive.org, Giochi Per Il Mio Computer 105 - Luglio 2005 for those interested. Here's that particular page.

This is an awesome find, thank you for sharing!!
Did it really cost 30€?
OMG
I actually have a CD version of RPM Tuning on PC! XD I have no idea when and where did I get it from but it is right in my house and playing this is an absolutely terrible experience, but quite funny tho. But I guess that one day my CD will become a legendary item
Never tried it out back then? I also own a physical disk copy of RPM Tunning. I remember playing it back in the days, had no issues to run it back then, and I actually enjoyed it a bunch, my PC couldn't handle simillar racing games back then, so I sticked to this one.
@@pudie8952 gaming
Oh man, I had it too, RPM Tuning with other budget games on disc like Pac Man clone, actually as much as it was bad, it was somehow chilling with this free ride mode, also to answer some of Shinyodd stuff, this road that "had potential" actually was used in career for one race, also game fog thing was absence, can't remember if there were crashes thou .-.
You really can see the effort put in this video, good job, keep this amazing work up! :]
Sorry that this video's been caught in yt's bitchy side
World's just falling apart on us from disappointing humans to mindless websites
Also 9:50 When BMW gets inspired from the Harlequin
This video was F**king brilliant, thoroughly enjoyed watching it, you did a amazing job Shiny.
The amount of serious work and dedication you put into this, I’m so glad it’s back!
This video is amazing!, so well made and i still searching the reason why youtube blacklisted this.
Keep the good work!
Thank You! Will try lol
11:38 I was really hoping you were going to say V-Tec and then insert a "BAAHHHHHHH" meme or something
Because realistically that's what people see after engaging V-tec
I loved this, so much I'll rewatch it! Shame TH-cam tried to wreck this, but it's okay, your fans always come back around.
On a lighter note, this was an amazing video which you don't find many of on TH-cam, hope this has given you a motive to make more content like this! Thank you Shiny 🔥
Watched it again, live this time, and it's still good. Please more videos like this, you can really see the effort that has gone into making this!
Freaking RPM Tuning. Game that was broke from the very start and yet still was sold in local shops. I remember hours spent on thinking what is wrong and that maybe my PC was too weak for this amazing game.
This is such a massive jump in quality you’d almost think this wasn’t a mockumentary, but I seriously love this kind of thing, it puts a smile on my face.
This is an absolute masterpiece and the whole documentary/chapter concept is really amazing
I can't believe youtube just wants to remove your masterpiece. enjoy your content and good work ^w^
Well that’s TH-cam for ya
I love protogens
It’s obvious they shit all over worthwhile videos while promoting low effort bullshit
I just looked this game up because I randomly remembered it at 3am, I used to play it on my moms really old CRT monitored computer with my brother and this is the ONLY video that exists about it. I appreciate this video so much. Thank you, this is a big part of my childhood. Don’t be sorry for me I actually did turn out okay in life 😂
i like the fact that even the gray bar below the screen is also separated by chapters. Well done!
13:22 I love the fact that the water container could hydrate a whole country for weeks
It doesn't matter if it's a re-upload, I'm gonna re watch it. This is your best video yet, don't let those TH-cam shenanigans bring you down
This is one of the only times I have ever watched a utube video twice, so f***** worth it! U deserve it, keep pushing! Much love from Norway!
Wait, is his FWD Celica swapped for a cammed V8 and most likely converted to RWD?
I mean... fucking props man.
Getting real strong Ahoy vibes from this. Well done.
Was a big inspiration im glad it was noticable
OH. MY. GOD. When I saw the thumbnail I burst out laughing lmao. This is the worst racing game I'VE ACTUALLY PLAYED :D
Circa 2012 all I had to play games on was a shitty old Windows XP PC, and I came across this thing on an internet café that happened to sell a handful of boxed mid-2000 games. As the naive 12 year old I was, I saw the cover and thought "This looks like a Need for Speed game! It must be fun!" and bought the damn thing. I took it home, installed it and... it worked perfectly fine. Maybe the Steam version is screwed, but this boxed copy ran flawlessly on my Windows XP PC (and with a few crashes on 7 when I tried it on another computer later on), cutscenes and all. I also remember messing around with the free roam mode and never encountering "the fog".
Everything went to hell when I tried to play the story mode, though. I don't know if you were playing with a steering wheel or something, but I remember trying to play with the keyboard and having to deal with the fact that a little tap on one of the arrow keys would steer the car by 35° or so, making the game borderline unplayable. In fact, the reason I never finished the game was because I couldn't win one of the races due to the horrible controls.
I revisited it from time to time (due to my lack of other games to play) but I eventually lost all patience. I had to get rid of it, but I wasn't going to leave it on the streets so some other unfortunate soul could play it. It had to be destroyed.
So I introduced it to the trash.
(I wrote pretty much the same comment on the original video, so I recreated it here both to share my story and help the video get traction. Fuck you, TH-cam).
hero for re-commenting it haha!
@@Shinyodd Nah, you're the hero going through shitty games (and investigating about them!) to entertain us. The time I spent rewriting this is nothing compared to the effort you put in the video.
Please keep doing what you're doing!
I remember playing it as a kid, but as you I don't remember any problems or glitches . I even enjoyed it to some extend. This video brought back memories from the past...
part of me wants to make a street racing game where the pearlescent pant style is called "shiny and odd" and the description of the turbo charger upgrade says "Put a yin yang spinny thang on that bad boy!"
Atta boi. You give the TH-cam system a good kicking. Had to watch this again. Just pure excellence mate. Keep at it.
I this video was extremely entertaining and I even enjoy the fact that you put in the actual chapters into youtube so you can actually skip the video to those parts. Keep up the amazing work
It's a masterpiece. Reminded me of some of Emplemon's videos, however I mean that in the best way possible, and obviously the sense of humour is entirely different.
I’m sorry you had to upload, I’m glad you did upload, masterpiece of documentary 💕
I'll watch it again, just for you shinyodd.
The original video was a masterpiece.
This is an actually really well produced & edited video.
Good work Shiny!
Thanks!
Why does it look like something out of Hot Wheels: Acceleracers?
Early 2000s style, duude!
God I fucking miss Hot Wheels games. Velocity X was the shit.
Why would TH-cam blacklist this?! It's beauty!
the first time i ever have a video i highly like, taken down by youtube.
"The drenalin is on" gives me MW 2005 flashbacks.
For those who didnt understand, there was line "The chase is on" in MW 2005 trailer.
I just finnished this game on an emulator, and wow, the end is the most fastest one and odd i've ever saw. Cinematic super shot, plot twist and The end. With no credits... The game isn't that bad but it's seriously botched, physics problem, nitro boost glitch and overstearring at 90 km/h.
14/20 Bad cutscenes, bad acting unplayable on pc but it's really not that bad, the final plot twist make no sens and completely forgettable. But I played worse game that were licenced and they had budget to do it, but messing up the game.
Midnight Outlaw: 6 Hours to SunUp/ RPM Tuning is an experience that you need to test ( not on pc) about what an unfinished game with great potential look like.
I never finished it when i was a kid, I'm happy now that i did.
Great vid bro!
Every aspect of it is just perfect!
I'm gonna write this comment now, simply for youtubes algorythm to see some more activity here.
And maybe also cause I can't be bothered to writ the comment that I left on the other video again :D
Anyways, keep up the good work :D
Great video! Does anyone know the name of the music that play at
16:35? I've been trying to find it for hours...
Second this, I’ve been hunting too, kinda sounds like Pokémon music, but idk
@@ausreb11 Found it: Pokémon Black and White OST - Disc 3: Undella Town (Fall-Spring)
I loved the entire part of searching for the devs and giving up and spinning the wheel, it’s genius
I like this style of content so I'm gonna rewatch it
Wow, this is actually one of the most well made videos on the site, and it talks about a game like this 😂😂
Shiny this is videos that I've ever seen from you the editing is insanely good and I liked it I hope you make more like this soon I know it's a reupload I but it still good
"The fog" kind of reminds me of that glitch in The Simpsons Hit & Run, where if you beat the game twice and start again the road dissapears after homer's 2nd mission, making the game virtually unplayable
This is by far one of you're BEST video that's not a meme
Spending $5 on this game is like dunking the money in water, ripping it up, flushing it, going to the sewage plant where it ends up, eating it, shitting it back out, lighting it on fire and throwing up on it to put it out.
I never found a TH-cam gamer who made me laugh so hard about an extinct bootleg racing game. @Shinyodd made my night actually. This video was less a game review and more like a @Coldfusion (a TH-cam channel) version of a psycho game development thriller XD.
Great video Shinyodd!!!! One of the greatest things I've seen in a long time! ( the teaser trailer was also very well made )
Thank You!
