"Nowadays developers are doing their best to make realistic graphics but they lost something very important during the years: ORIGINALITY" Man you're the greatest! Thanks for these words!!!
We need a remake or a new game of Auto Modellista so much right now, seeing new racing games are all towards having realistic visuals, which is not bad by any means, just that personally a new racing game, with AM's cell-shading visuals could become popular and attract good amount of people to play such game. Not to forget keeping all the content, improving the flaws from the original, better physics that could vary from Original version grip to US Tuned ver. drift physics based on how tuned a car gets and making the game have longer progression. Not to mention adding european cars since the game lacked them by having none of such cars at all.

I had this as a kid. You could even customize your garage with parts you earned through the career. The goddamned thing had engine swaps. Even a video editor where you could go ahead and make your own music with some samples. It was, and is, one hell of a game I would like to go back and experience all over like the first time.
Facundo Quevedo I remember the garage! You can just customize everything (paintings, posters, chairs and other furniture) in this game.. I think it’s time to start my PS2 again 😂
@@hxneyxblood Indeed, it failed. BUT if it was re-made again in the modern times, it will go on well. Edit: It just need to fix *(If not all but most)* its flaws that the original had, more Car brands and cars *(Especially adding the modern Cars)* and i bet ya, this game will go on well.
Callum Roper It needs new physics. Everything else was stellar. Loved how the exhaust moved independently. But the controls were ultimately what defeated it at the start... 😞
@@Marzimus Unfortunately, that is true. However, I'd replace the tyres on every car you build in career mode, the grip will become very high and you can land sub-1:50 times on Suzuka with little else done to the car.

The announcer's voice looks like from the Street Fighter game.)) Hey, I found you another hidden gem and underrated racing game on PS2. It's called Enthusia Professional Racing.
Ah yes, Enthusia. Sucked that it had to come out around the same time as GT4 and get overshadowed, otherwise we'd probably be seeing sequels to that game. In my opinion, it actually simulated BETTER than GT4, which is pretty crazy for Konami to beat Polyphony Digital at driving simulation.
It wasn't that underrated yo. The game had a weird xp thing going on where all cars can slowly be leveled at the same level making everything balanced. The game has horrible physics though. I wouldn't waste my time (I own it) try The fast and the furious. Now that's a good underrated game. It was out when the PS3 launched but was a PS2 game from Bandai. They used Crave's style of racing games with Tokyo Xtreme racer and added some Need for speed underground 2 to the mix making all tuners customizable in many ways and the cars are all based on Tuners so there's a very good list of cars making it better than NFSU2's list. I think the only downside are the graphics. You'd think they would match midnight club 3 but they are very low res as the devs went that route probably on a budget but the physics and drifting is pretty unique. Whenever you drift it feels like a grind from Tony hawk
Yes! I was hoping someone else would say it! Looks exactly like Drift City... Man, I loved that game until they went crazy with microtransactions and over complication. Is it even still around?
@@nikolayio1764 Theres at least two privately owned (unofficial) servers for english players in the works, coming out some time in the next year or two i think ^_^
The art style is incredible. It could be released in 2019 and be praised for its art (well, maybe with more lights?) There are not so many old racing game that aged well today
They would probably have to update the foliage to make it pop out more, but yeah, this, Okami, JSRF, those games stick with you because of how striking the art was.
We need something a modern version of this. But the way gaming is headed i don't think we will ever get one. Sucks everything is FPS macro-transaction filled. Is sad.

There has been a couple of private server attempts but they stranded pretty soon. Another one is in the making but i dont expect it to go live anytime soon.
Not sure if you knew about that, but US version of this game has different physics. In PAL and JP version cars have more grip and loose less speed on corners.
Thank you, i am playing the US Tuned now and can't wait to try that out later, after i'm done with this one. They should have kept the physics intact with this version honestly.
I remember this being one of the first games I pre-ordered. I was a huge fan of driving games and for some reason the cel-shading just seemed like it was the coolest thing in the world. The game promised tons of customization, and tons of cars. It sort of felt like it was going to be an animated version of the street racing game called "Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero" The game right off the bad was pretty disappointing. Graphically it was gorgeous, but the driving physics were horrendous. In most tracks it was faster to bump into the corners than it was to actually slow down and keep a racing line. This was a game I definitely remember being happy to trade into Gamestop. As far as this video goes, its my first time on this channel. This video would of been 10x better with audio narration instead of the pop-up blurbs.
.... You were likely 5..... I believe I was 10 when this was out. Sadly I didn't get it since I was more pumped for Tekken 4 and Vice city at the time during that 2002 time period
I feel so bad that the Japanese / first release version has different handling physics with a bit more sim-cade taste, they haven't applied on later versions(incl. the one in the video) for the game being more accessible and easier. :(
I remember this game well I loved it on ps2. I have mentioned it loads of times to people who never heard of it. The graphics popped and still look cool now in my opinion. Nice video 👌
@@CANADaria It came out slightly before GT4, I think. It's a long time ago that I've played these - maybe I'm wrong and GT4 was a little bit earlier. IF I remember correctly both came out without much time in between. Edit: Yes, I was wrong. Enthusia's official release date was 17.03.2005 and GT4 came out 28.12.2004 - so, my apologies.
I’d love to hear your opinion about Choro Q HG2, also known as Road Trip Adventure in PAL regions. It has loads of originality and personality especially. Of every “retro” racing game I’ve ever played, Road Trip Adventure is the most deserving, in my opinion, of a remake.
oh my god yes. i remember seeing videos of the game on early youtube when i was younger but i didnt actually get to play it until recently when i remembered it and decided to run it with pcsx2. its certainly not a flawless game by any means (mechanically it's pretty poor even as a cartoonish arcadey experience) but its just so charming and adorable and really unlike any other game out there and i can't help but love it anyway. all the unique little personalities of all the car-characters are so fun, i loved meeting them all and i cared far more about recruiting the characters that i liked on my team instead of just caring about the "best" drivers (mien and pillow are my gang
Still have this underated gem. Capcom really hasn't done any racing games as of late, so unfortunately, I don't think they're interested. That doesn't mean another company can't come along and make a spiritual successor. Wreckfest is an example of that.
when i see racing game with cel shading, anime-like drift smoke and some guy yelling your performance, i remembered Drift City that had to close server in US and Indonesia back then :" missing that game now even though there is only Japan Server by Ijji
I love the art direction. This reminds me of that Transforms Devastation game that was removed from the PS4 store. I'm glad I snagged it before it was gone.
This. Tokyo Xtreme racer 3. Midnight club 3. Nfsu 1 and 2. They were trippy racing games. You could play all night with friends and still have fun redo the career. Didnt have the most eye candy of customization but they were original designs and made you felt like you actually created the car in a way. We'll never get games like this nowadays because of 70% in graphics. We'd be lucky if the next racing game doesn't feel like the previous triple A one.
My favorite car to use in the game is the DOME Zero. Sucker handled so much better then what you'd expect. And I agree with everyone saying it, this amazing game really needs a proper remaster.
I have been playing this on and off since It came out. I still have my PS2 permanently hooked up next to my PS4 and regularly play auto modellista and underground 2.

@@Blueflag04 JP version's handling physics were relatively sim-cade style which is quite tough for a game with cartoon-ish graphics, so the developers decided to make the handling more accessible for every gamers.
@@mko4278 i didnt actually think there would be an acknowledged connection between them, but it makes perfect sense that DC/SR was indeed inspired by this! god i miss drift city ='[
First time here and I'm already hearing OPSM2 music. Thumbs up.
I’d love to see something like this made now with some similar physics to Forza MS or Gran Turismo. Even Forza Horizon physics would be dope
this and gran turismo was rival at that time
I still have this game! I loved it and was thinking of it the other day. May have to get out the ol ps2
I remember this one. Spent a heck of a time modding and admiring cars in the garage than playing the actual race.
I thought I knew most of the classic racing games out there - classics like MOTORHEAD & FORD RACING 1, 2 & 3...
BUT HOW DID I MISS THIS BRILLIANT LOOKING CLASSIC???
You know ford racing too? Same here
the ford racing games were well underrated i had all 3 and they were quality! the visuals were pretty sharp, it had good tracks and even though they were limited to only fords the car choice was pretty dam good tbh!

Damn, i wish i had played this as a kid, it looks just like "that one perfect game from your childhood"
" You'reeeee Amazzzzzinggggg" lol, Awesome game. Takes me back.
I have this game and I still enjoy it till this day
0:32 I didn't expect the reference to the game XIII... I still find that the game is underrated. Even now it's still pretty fun to play
many games of that era were really cool like splinter cell, time splitters, jet set radio etc etc
This was one of my favorites. I played it pretty regularly.
yOu're aMazing !
I'd NeVeR SeEn SuCh TEchniQue!!!
cOmE oN!, CoMe On!
The car selection UI around 1:50 is very reminiscent of the Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere aircraft selection screen...
holy shit that intro music! havent heard that in years, reminds me when i used to play those opm ps2 demo discs
I remember this game it was so much fun this just took me back to my late teens
