Another video, another author's note: 1. Yes, I'm aware I said "Razorware" several times instead of "Razorworks." Don't record your voiceovers at 3am, kids. I recorded this VO almost two months ago, and didn't notice the mistakes until I was too deep in the editing process for it to be reasonable to re-record, resync and everything. Make fun of me if you wish. 2. This video took TOO LONG to make. I thought I could offset the challenge of covering 7 games in one video by spending less time on each, but even spending 3-5 minutes... y'all see how long it ended up being. This is where I've been. 3. Next video will be a more focused critique of a game I've been wanting to replay for a while..... I hope y'all enjoy!

I think the thing woth ordinary cars being left behind in racing games is because of the huge focus on onlinbe play. For example, I played a lot of Forza Horizon 1 online and everybody picked the S or R classes, no one would want to race with the D/E/F classes. Little did they know that with slower cars you get better racing.

"And today, when you're someone who's more interested in cars themselves than racing, driving games don't feel like they're for you anymore." FINALLY, someone GETS it. Forza Horizon and other games today are fun, sure, but I never feel like I'm actually HAVING fun while playing them. The most fun I've ever had playing racing games is in older Gran Turismos and Tokyo Xtreme Racer titles, because it feels grounded enough in the car selections and whatnot that I actually feel like I own those cars, I feel connected to them. Ford Racing 2 is one of my favorite games of all time because of the car selection, and five year old me thinking "wow, my dad's truck is in this game! Cool!"

It's always cool to see unexpected vehicle choices like that in games.

The HUD may look correct, but FOV is pretty much Vert- (minus), meaning it cuts off a portion of the top and bottom of the screen to keep it from looking squished.
@VexAcer4 жыл бұрын
It's most likely because he has his Xbox set to widescreen. Since the setting is set system-wide it'll apply itself to any compatible game. Many Xbox/PS2 games used what's called Vert- for widescreen. Essentially it cuts the bottom and top view to make the ratio appropriate. It seems FR3 uses this. An easy and cheap way to make your game seem technologically forward looking without messing with the game's rendering to get actual widescreen.

I have recently bought Ford Racing 2 thanks to this video, and may check out Off Road some time. Ford Racing 3 is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, mostly because it's the first game in the series I played and at the time, I was more interested in the more simple, budget style racing games like Trackmania and GTI Racing, before Colin McRae DiRT changed all that. Speaking of which, I wouldn't mind hearing what you have to say about the GTI series of racing games, like GTI Racing and GTI Club. I hope you will cover them in a future video!

Whoa i love the parabloid map reflection on the cars in Ford Mustang game and the next one. Yeah PS2 has an incorrectly designed interlace flicker fixer circuit, it's a documented hardware bug. For this reason, games completely disable it, all of them. The few games that do have a proper interlace flicker filter, make one in software as a post process step, but that takes up extra GPU time. The effects of the lack of flicker fixer are varied, but in general it's a jittery image and greatly reduced number of perceived lines of detail particularly in motion.

The interface of the would be improved from Ford vs Chevy. 2. Ford Racing 4 - Again a collection of Ford cars to drive, but physics come up more realistic and cars are customizable.

Ford Racing 2 was still the best IMO. The AI was great, racing on the hardest difficulty was really entertaining when you made everyone use the same car as you. Ford Racing 3 on the other hand, looks pretty dull. The enviroments are bland, the AI is braindead, and while there are more cars, they decided to change the sounds to some of them during the transition from FR2, ruining them in the process (Examples: Powerstroke Concept, Crown Victoria, Focus FR200, Taurus Stock Car, Ford GT (That supercharger whine ruins the harmony of any car that has it in FR3) And after FR3... oh boy, the car sounds took a nosedive in quality (Seriously, the Super Chief in OffRoad sounds like the green Mustang GT from FR3 wtf?) But hey, Street Racing was a fun time when i was a kid, so it holds a little place in my heart, just like FR2.

You summed it up perfectly, these games are a time capsule of automotive history, albeit, obscure and mundane models we use to see on the road growing up. It's especially cool if your family owned one of those featured sedans, SUVs, or pickups back in the day. Aside from the sports cars and top models, we'll probably never see most of these vehicles in any future games. Grand Turismo 2 holds a special place in my gaming memory because of the regular sedans and vehicles we say day to day on the road. It was amazing to think that a current game would feature your common sedan your parent's probably owned. Half the fun was playing in attainable coupes and sedans that were on the road - of course putting a turbo charger and a drag package didn't hurt either :) Nothing has really matched that type of variety and depth of vehicles for me since GT2.

The niche cars and multiple trims are what made me love the earlier racing games. The newer ones are all about the fastest and the flashiest like forgetting about what sort of customers they have as an audience. Sure it's nice to drive that brand new Ferrari, but it would be equally good, if not much better, to see my daily driver in game and do what I normally can't with it. I adored Gran Turismo when it had the first gen Honda Fit, especially the Spoon race car. Why couldn't they add that nugget or the newer Brio RS in the new ones? Same goes for the other games. I honestly think racing games no longer have any soul in it. Hopefully, GT7 will fix that but I won't keep my hopes up.

Overall as a compilation review for multiple games, I think you did well. You explained what you thought worked and didn't work. I disagree with how you feel about FR3 though, hehe. I'm sorry, but that's my favorite FR game of Razorwork's series. I don't recall the camera really being that bad really, my bigger gripe was with some of the track designs and the lack of stability on some cars. Anyway, I also share your desire to drive more regular cars in racing games. One of my favorite cars to drive in FM4 was the Ford Fusion Sport you shown at 26:23, there's something fun about seeing what these normal cars can do on a race track. I remember being happy when Turn 10 added the newer Lincoln Continental to one of their dlc packs in FM7.

OH MY GOD I PLAYED FORD RACING 2. This might sound stupid, but I just unlocked memories I forgot I had. I played this game when I was, don't know, 5/6 years old maybe? Maybe even less? I remember dirt racing in one of those trucks, I remember the SVT Cobra vs the Ford GT and I remember the Nascars, holy crap this is one of the first racing games ever I remember that I have played. THANK YOU

I love your videos. Are you planning on making a video about TOCA Race Driver? It was one of my favourites back in the day,

Nothing's off the table, I have TOCA 2 on OG xbox that I've never really played. It's more likely that I'd cover GRID, being an evolution that set itself apart way more, but TOCA is a possibility.

I had Ford Racing 2 on PC. It was pretty great. Though that was the 6th gen where you could pick up cool looking games and they would probably be great because gaming was at it's peak then.

One nice feature of Ford vs Chevy is the system link mode. Get 2 or more Xbox consoles networked together, and you have an easy-to-play, fun-for-all arcade racer. The flat learning curve to this title makes it accessible to everyone, young to old, casual to hardcore.

I've finally found a comments section where I'm not the only one who had a good time racing in cars you're most likely to find in Gran Turismo's B and A license tests.
