2008: The Pinewood Derby videogame (basically a virtual slot machine) 2018: Raid Shadow Legends, Overwatch, TF2 and other videogames with micro transactions.

[@squiggleeey8958]

All those games DO have micro-transactions but you can't compare Raid to TF2 and Overwatch

[@longarmsshow]

Dude, this video was so good. I had no idea this game even existed. Who the hell even likes to watch pinewood derby races anyway? Haha. I absolutely loved your comparison to how the game is similar to a slot machine. That was such a good comparison, and it made me laugh pretty damn hard. I can't wait to see what other terrible racing games there are!

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you so much, Marc it means a lot! I had no idea this game existed until I ran across a copy on eBay. I immediately thought, "There's no way this is good." haha. The game no doubt was doomed from the very beginning. I can't wait to get the next episodes out!

[@arcadereviews8854]

@@Vectrex4Life no this is good game stop lying and remake the video to say the game is good actually

[@idaholana]

@@Vectrex4Life Well at least it’s a racing game so he still likes it but I think that opinion goes same because you know \|/ Lego racers

[@jamesrustler16]

Hahahaha this is hilarious man, can't wait for the next episode! I love how the cars make engine and tire screeching sounds lol.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks dude! And those sounds are so unrealistic, yet somewhat cool haha.

Man if this dude would come back he could dominate bad game reviews he just not posting every day or week I miss forgotten games

[@Freezezonian]

3:19 when the track is doing the worm better than you've seen a worm do it.

[@MikeRetroModz]

The concept is alright, if there was more depth and sim elements to it, like deeply customizing them and more bigger tracks than it would make sense, and it would be a neat little physic racing game but that is just crappy development.

[@OutlawsGraveyardShift]

A new forgotten games video! I haven't watched your stuff in awhile. I remember subbing back when the Dinosaur games video was out. Good to see you making more stuff. I'll definitely be contributing on patreon when I get a job.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you very much for watching! Glad you enjoy the videos!

[@Kooltrex]

Great job as always your channel just keeps getting bigger and bigger

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks man!

[@CEO100able]

4:12 - Personally I think 2008 was a reflection of the year 1998 anyway, so the main menu style and graphics were probably permissible.

[@charliejimmy5160]

Pro trick : watch series at KaldroStream. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.

[@jaggernolan4310]

@Charlie Jimmy yup, I have been watching on Kaldrostream for months myself :D

[@cristianspencer2667]

@Charlie Jimmy yea, I have been using KaldroStream for since november myself :)

[@dillonrory2038]

@Charlie Jimmy Yea, have been using kaldroStream for since november myself :D

@Charlie Jimmy yup, I've been watching on kaldrostream for months myself :D

[@stripeysp0ts]

It's always good to see one of your notifications on my phone! Keep up the good work buddy. The editing upgrades are awesome!

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos.

[@MikeJr9284]

I actually played this game when I was a Cub Scout 11-12 years ago.

[@arcadereviews8854]

I WAS ONE 32 YEARS AGO AND I PLAYED THIS GAME THEN AND I LOVED IT PEOPLE NEED TO stop hating on good games like pinewoord debry.

[@quagmire2369]

I can't stop watching

[@LegenGary]

I see Winter Race 3D sitting there all like...."hes not gonna review me is he?" lol. This video was great.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks, Gary! Funny thing is, Winter Race 3D WAS a contender to be one of the worst forgotten racing games, but when I played it, I actually somewhat enjoyed it. It has very shallow gameplay yes, but it really wasn't that bad.

[@LegenGary]

I always seem to find absolutely broken copies of the game, yes there is updates, but still.

[@emberpersephone]

A game based off of the pinewood derby?! How exciting... Glad to see you uploading, it's always a treat.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks for watching!

[@fuckmasterskeletor9326]

I came across your channel in the middle of searching for bad Lego games. I was expecting Lego Indiana Jones 2 and Lego Star Wars 2 for DS, but I found a much worse result *cough* Lego Friends *cough*. You are really hilarious, keep up the great work! :)

[@fuckmasterskeletor9326]

Also you should review terrible TT games' Lego Games. there are some out there...... *cough* Indiana Jones 2 and DS ports *cough*

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoy the videos! If I am going to revisit more LEGO games, Indiana Jones 2 might fit the bill, we'll see.

[@fuckmasterskeletor9326]

Cool, good luck and spoilers.............it's worse than the first one.

[@Aaradorn]

dude make a lego loco game. I loved that game when I was young!

[@Bennett.R]

A new Forgotten Games intro and 60fps!!! Awesome!

[@Vectrex4Life]

Bennett R. Yep I felt it deserved a revision. I finally upgraded my Galaxy S2 to an S7, hense the 60fps and 1080p!

[@Bennett.R]

I still can't believe (no offense) that your old camera was an S2 that's actually insane how good it was for an S2

[@Vectrex4Life]

Bennett R. Haha yeah it wasn't too bad.

[@computercatgaming02]

The painful wait is over! :D finally a new Video!

[@Vectrex4Life]

Yes indeed it is. Hopefully I can be quicker on the next one.

[@saltsalted1528]

This should have been a mini movie thing

[@pdiddlyd]

2008? What the shit. Big Rigs looks better than that crap.... lol

[@FireAntoniyo]

Damn dude! You absolutely ROASTED this game! XD awesome job again! Can't wait for Part 2!

[@Vectrex4Life]

Haha yeah I think it deserved it. Thanks, part 2 is on its way!

[@FireAntoniyo]

Sweet! Looking forward to it!

[@thefirkman7400]

So playing the newest update to GTA Online is basically playing Pinewood Derby? Ok, noted.

[@SUNSHINE-t-m]

ok. when i found this series the first video i saw was from 2013. and this... it's a total evolution

[@Vectrex4Life]

Haha yes, I have evolved quite a lot since then! Thanks for sticking around.

[@levinausley288]

i remember playing this when i was 4 or 5 near when it came out

[@warhawk638]

Aaaaaaaa. Cub Scout memories. Pinewood derby sucked anyways. After you spend hours making your car (sitting around while your parents cut the wood for you) making it look cool, you always got absolutely destroyed by the one kid who had overprotective parents that secretly made the car heavier.

[@galia2843]

Shame on me that I found your channel only yesterday... entertainment and game destruction on a new level~

[@tekkayagi6814]

Your cat at the end. xD

[@Vectrex4Life]

Yay someone noticed! Haha.

[@taskanawa9604]

OMFG dat porsche lul, great video dude =)

[@hillboy55games]

Can't wait for the next video

[@octane_rl]

FUCK YEAH when he's in the tub theres Flatout 2

[@quagmire2369]

I have nothing to do at 11pm so I watch this

[@JettPyreYTP]

Yay you're back after 2 months of not uploading anything

[@Maximus6G]

That gt90 concept car hotwheel tho.... Ford.

[@silenceenigma587]

I have that very same Hot Wheels 4 Lane Dragway Set

[@ThaneDukeHeineken]

I love Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix. I need a working copy in my life.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you for watching!

[@kidwithproblems8773]

Vectrex4Life i love ur fucking vids

[@kylrox8686]

Bro I am proud of u for loving racing games

[@tenaciousinvestigator4940]

Nice video, reminded me of the older yt :p . Unfortunetly i can't find this game anywhere online. Is there any chance that you could make a rip of the disc and upload it to somewhere like internet archive?

[@chris250-50]

I'm looking forward to see what games are going to be featured in fact I actually have a few games you should look at Build'n'race on the wii,mini rc rally on ds, supercar street challenge on pc/ps2, dt racer on ps2,suzuki tt superbikes and sadly as it pains me to say it hot wheels beat that pc/ps2/wii/ds and 360 just some to consider

[@000Orkarnikolla000]

Your style is getting cleaner and your writing is getting better for each video. I don't want to exaggerate, but at this point you are - to me, at least - more entertaining than Jontron. Instead of the entire video being shout-outs to sponsors, and instead of the jokes being reactions or "taking on a costume" jokes, you provide a good mix of entertainment and analysis. By the way, play Tonka Raceway.

[@CaroFDoom]

damn that's a bad lock-up at 2:14

[@ignoreme8841]

Dirby driver reminds me.of games I used.to play in school

[@nicsmitty3991]

And i like your intro for this video. 😂

[@ItsYaTrashboi]

I have a suggestion for the show. How about Freaky Flyers on Gamecube, PS2 and Xbox?

[@millbrick]

if i had that much racing games, i would be infinitely happeh.

[@sevens12]

2:06 should have put cool vibrations tho

[@TheKsax]

yay. Subbed for my favourite type of videos. Obscurity.

I lost at the opponent names.

[@LakoIsFun]

Looks like a early access steam game.

[@mrcoolguy32]

Yay another review.

[@mrcoolguy32]

ok, this game looks like a 1997 tech demo.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Coolguy32 Yep, certainly not something that should have been turned into an actual game. Haha thanks for watching.

[@Kyoto-P]

I wonder if the Rapture of shadow president passed.

[@Vectrex4Life]

It was probably on Inauguration Day... interpret that how you want, haha.

[@Kyoto-P]

Vectrex4Life Haha, true.

[@LethalAxis]

fuckin nice opening shot

Have you got NFSU2? That's a great game! Not that it should be considered for this series, but I'm just curious.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Johannes LaCroix Haven't played Underground 2 but I have played the original. It is a great game.

[@TheLegitaMate1]

Nice to know. I totally agree with you there. I have a feeling we're gonna finally see what is the deal with such the obscure game that is Mini Desktop Racing.

Hi from Armenia :)

[@temple_4213]

will you ever go back to making craigslist videos?

[@Vectrex4Life]

Probably not. There's been notes jotted down for an episode 5, but if it ever came to be, the structure, intro and transitions would change. If I did an episode 5, it would likely be the last one I'd ever do because I've gotten less passionate about critiquing Craigslist ads now.
