/vr/ - Retro Games

>>7701056
Project Gotham Racing 2 aka Metropolis Street Racer 3

One of the worst aging genres there are, and I say that as a racing game fan. 2D era isometric or fake 3D racing is worthless anyway, it didn't benefit from timeless sprites in any way, early 3D graphics have aged badly as well, most of the time old racing games have clunky or otherwise awkward controls with jumpy handling that lacks any weight or relation to real world ideas of inertia (even arcade racing can't live entirely without comprehensible vehicle behavior), old imitations of real engine sounds are absolutely terrible. It's just very difficult to find pre-2000 racing that's still enjoyable, at least in my opinion.

>>7701056
PGR2 and 3 will forever be my favorite racing games.

>>7701094
I wish PGR had TJ Davis songs with Jacques

Guess I should start Enthusia.

Remember /vroom/, midnight club died for our sins. Also am I the only person to have ever played impact racing?

>>7701056
Recently started Ridge Racer Type 4, which is also my first RR game. I was hooked within minutes. The music, the presentation; all fantastic.
I'm also quite shit at the game at the moment. Any tips for getting gud.

>>7701972
>Any tips for getting gud
Get a negcon

>>7701972
Grip first, drift when you git gud. Also if emulating use a negcon.

>>7701972
Drift cars drift when you release the gas and press it again while turning. Grip cars turn sharply without drifting early.

Just got my xbox 360 back and picked up this bad boy. Game loads all the way through the tutorial then says the disk is dirty or damaged.

>>7702067
Have you checked the disc?

>>7702067
Best fucking game on the Xbox ever. God damn that's a fucking awesome game.

>>7701205
Disagree on this one. RR series, Sega Rally, Daytona, Wipeout, F-Zero X, Gran Turismo, Side by Side, etc are all awesome

>>7702495
>Side by Side,

>>7701205
>3D graphics have aged badly
What the fuck are you talking about? 90's arcade racers wrote the book on good graphics. Everything became grey and brown and uninteresting after 2000.

Why is Beetle Adventure Racing a cult classic? It's pretty cool for being a full-fledged car racer on the N64, but having only 5 tracks is a bit of a bummer

>>7703474
Multiplayer is fun too

>>7703474
You can tell it was made with love despite being a licensed game. You know the track with a half-destroyed bridge that has a ramp on it? Fall down the hole next to the ramp.

>>7701056
How many of you have played this? The first time I got to try a PlayStation, the only games available were Motor Toon Grand Prix 2 and Crash Bandicoot and I prioritized this one.
I had a blast with both of them, I don't exactly remember why I chose this but I think it was because I really liked the visuals.

>>7704221
It had a lot of polygonal detail because it was all gouraud shaded. Based Polyphony. Cartoon aesthetic also meant very vibrant palette.

>>7701319
It's absolutely incredible.

>>7702097
I played the first two recently, can't wait to try this one out next

Dead genre
Dead general
Kekw

>>7704221
Me. never could beat the last tier of racing without powerups.

>big big BIG

>>7704221
Wasn't this made by the guy who made GT?

What's up with the wipeout 3 special edition? Is it worth it over the basic version, and can I make it run at 60hz?

>>7705405
It plays differently, has a few more songs and some rebalanced ships. Play the japanese version.

>>7705398
Same studio.

Going back to Colin McRae Rally 3 i was disappointed by how you can only use the Ford Focus in the championship and it sort of feels like a step back compared to 2.0.
Which CMR is the best one and which one is the worst?

>>7705509
>i was disappointed by how you can only use the Ford Focus in the championship
Seriously? That's fucking retarded.

>>7705529
Yeah, especially since you have to replay the championship on higher difficulties to unlock all the cars and the game won't allow you to use anything but the Ford Focus. They are only for single stages and multiplayer.

>>7705587
well done codemasters

>>7705437
What's different with the JP version compared to the PAL special edition, or even the NTSC/PAL original version?

>>7705509
The Focus looks really fucking gay, why do you care?
>Which CMR is the best one
The first.

>>7705651
I wouldn't care if you could use any other car, even the ones you can unlock. Especially since no other game in the series does this. Or maybe I'm just an autismo idk.

>>7701056
I still dont understand why they kept the working title

>>7702067
One of my favourite games ever and I'm not even that big a fan of racing games. Been playing Burnout Revenge recently. Didn't care for the 360 version, but the technically inferior original Xbox version clicked with me. I think it's a combination of the presentation not blinding you with bloom and lighting effects and the music actually being keyed to the races, not playing over loading screens.

>>7709678

>>7709507
>you now remember Papyrus

>>7709918
As a non burger I do not. Those NASCAR games have always been those games that seemingly exist but go so far under the radar you'd need sonar to detect them.

>>7709970
The first games I ever got was the initial NASCAR Racing and I'm from the UK.

>>7710001
Fuck, awkward typo. I have NR, NR2, NR3, NR4 and NR2003. Great fun.

>>7710001
They weren't exactly common in bongland and you know it.

>>7710026
Why are you acting so sharp? Of course I know that, Christ.

>>7709507
>Nascar is the most unique motorsport in the world
>Driving in a circle over and over is unique
lmao

>>7710029
'Cuz i'm half a bottle of vodka deep and clearly do not know how to temper my posting so as to not come across as aggressive. Forgive me for my tone anon as I merely wished to state that NASCAR has always been turbo niche in the UK and mostly was forgotten once paprus stopped making games. In a roundabout way reminds me of all those cricket games and johah lomu rugby game that basically only got sold in the commonwealth.

>>7709507
I have fond memories of playing NR2003 on PC simply for going in the wrong direction and watching the carnage unfold, and I remember finding Nascar 2001 on the PS1 pretty impressive in conveying what I thought must be the real terror of driving in these races through its shaky cockpit cam and deafening engine drone.

>>7710071
Still remember a replay I had of rolling one of the Dodge cars multiple times down the front straight on the Coca Cola Speedway track. That was great.

>>7705398
Yes, and in the second one (or first one in the west) you can already see a few features that would return in Gran Turismo. The race map display, HUD fonts, replay cameras, generally it seems built on the same engine. You can already feel the roots of Gran Turismo there and I believe I've heard "the Polyphony guy" say he already had the idea of a driving simulator in its head and used Motor Toon to establish himself and as a technical proof of concept for further developments.

>>7710087
The final unlock in the game - formula X - is basically a GT tech demo. It is just using a stock car for a TT on a few tracks with a wildly more sim like physics mode than the rest of the game uses. If you play that and then go to GT1 you can clearly feel the connection. l

DnB really is the best music genre for racing games.
>>7710431
I still want to find Cyborg in lossless quality. It's pretty damn good.
>>7710436
Pendulum are kind of a shitpost group but Hold Your Colors is peak 2000s DnB.

>>7710515
>Pendulum are kind of a shitpost group
Gonna disagree there chief, even if they are not the hardest DnB their sound is great. They might not be basement jaxx but still.

>>7710546
Pendulum has admitted that they never really were a full-on DnB group, and mixed the style with other genres during their ventures in the 2000s. They're considered to be sort of a meme group compared to core underground stuff and the DnB community gave them a lot of shit over the years.

>>7710436
>>7710546
>>7710596
Pendulum is the skrillex of DnB

>>7701056
Bros... after 20 actual years I finally did it. Gold times always filter me in every game.

>>7710605
That doesn't work because Pendulum went from actual good and respected dnb to rock pop, that would imply Skrillex did anything great to begin with.

>>7710634
Good job.

What is the best wipeout track and why is it gare d'europa?

>>7712804
gare and manortop best tracks of all time

>>7701056
Anyone else who loves this?

>>7713013
It's better on the PS2 and Arcade but Saturn has its charm.

>>7713016
Wait its on ps2?

>>7713040
Yeah, it was a bonus with Sega Rally 2006. Very authentic port.

>>7713052
Ah its japan only
That explains why i didnt know of it

>>7712252
Are they different?

I want PGR5 so badly, PGR4 was the last great arcade racer.

>>7713354
The last great one was motorstorm apocalypse.

Hard Drivin'

>>7713409
nyet comrade

>>7713354
PGR4 still looks and plays incredibly and I would go nuts for a rerelease that lets me play it at 1080p with decent load times.

>>7713127
It's like the X-Wing vs TIE Fighter of offroad games. ATV Offroad Fury was its own series since 2001, MX was its own series since 2001, and then they started fusing them in 2005. ATV Offroad Fury got another game of its own in 2006, but other than that all forthcoming titles starting in 2005 were MX vs ATV.

Enthusia is weird. It's like you have to constantly countersteer in order to exit a corner.

>>7713354
Split/Second was the last great arcade racer.

>>7713519
Hot Wheels Unleashed will save us all.

>>7710984
The only drum & bass in the OG trilogy was Photek in 2097.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k_g4Lnu4Mc&list=PLsPMOz2-mpmP4b-nocgEw3BZ_W5lRtMv-&index=7

>>7713560
I really fucking hope it does because Hotwheels is a retarded company for not making an arcade racer with an infinite amount of free DLC cars of the same design quality as their Forza expansion pack by now.

Also, new trailer. They have Burnout mechanics. Nice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEG6n_3ggx0

>>7713587
It has differing boost mechanisms for different cars. Some cars have boost charges and others have a boost bar.

I'm wondering if there are more boost types beyond just those.

>>7713591
From what I'm seeing so far, it has
>Burnout type boost
>Charge-type boost
>Heavy vehicles that can ram smaller ones off the track ala Motorstorm
>Wipeout-esque magnetic tracks
>Mid-air boosting ala Distance
Gameplay still seems a bit slow though.

Not going to lie that hot wheels game is one of two racing games I am keeping an eye on.

>>7713621
Apparently it'll have 60 cars and 40 tracks at launch. Don't know how the hell they'll manage that.

>>7713587
>skipping the loop

>>7713643
still amazed I never knew this game existed until a few years ago, I would have played the hell out of it when I was younger

>>7712525

Good skyboxes need to make a comeback.

>>7701319
Yes you should. If you can do it with a wheel. Do. It's absolutely stellar

>>7716353
Post an example.

Should Outrun-esque gameplay be considered true racing despite how restrictive it is, since it retains gameplay from the faux-racing 2D era?

>>7718819
At the end of the day they still boil down to time trials so yes they count.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYxqju-vfAA
This has unironically a lot of effort put into it for a meme mod, not only did they replace the assets and add a lot of new cars (including fucking Multipla) but they have added brand new events to career mode and completely reworked the challenge series so it doesn't just consists of tollbooths and pursuits.
Now I hope Carbon Battle Royale mod gets finished soon because last time I played it it was still really buggy.

What a piece of shit

>>7720629
There are only 3 good PSP games and that certainly is not one of them. Why would you subject yourself to that game I do not know.

>>7720605
>>7720629

Midnight club LA on PSP is pretty cool. Even has a tokyo side mission not in the console version

>>7720662
3 good PSP games period?

>>7720906
Yeah - wipeout pulse, pure and pursuit force.

>>7720945
Make it 6. Burnout Dominator is good. ACX and ACX2 as well, though they're not racing games.

>>7720662
>>7720794
Carbon Own the City is way better, it even has original story and open world

>>7718819
You operate vehicles in a timed manner, therefore it's racing. Whether it's your flavor of racing is up to you.

I recently tried PS2 and Gamecube versions of some NFS games and is it just me or does the handling on those feel right? On PC it was smooth but here I lost control multiple times and the drifting felt way harder.
You also have missing features like no online and only 4 drivers in one race.

>>7713461
try it on Xenia mate, I heard it's improving a lot these days.

>>7722960
It was intended to be a greatest hits collection for PSP, it's pretty impressive early title though a bit easy

This got recomended to me a while ago and ngl, the guy convinced me a bit.
Was Driveclub really that soulful?
yes yes I know, buzzword and shit, but i see soul as something with a personal touch, a piece of art that's not a commodity first, but something that a person(or a small group of people with deep understanding of each other)imprinted on their creation, made something that is unmistakably theirs. like, nobody but psygnosis and TDR could've made wipeout as they did. you feel me?

I recently beat the main campaign. I think it's a flavorless racing game but I keep coming back to it because it's so full of content.

Driveclub Bikes is (well, actually "was" at this point) better than the main game, IMO.

I read that in the RRR announcer's voice. Not sure if that is a good thing or not.

>mirrored backwards

>>7731538
If the developer designed the stage to be viewed backwards with no missing assets, is it not testament of their attention to detail?

>>7731585
No missing details doe not mean the track flows as well as it should. Anglers of attack change, braking points change and in many cases it becomes challenge for the sake of it, rather than genuine difficulty increases.

I'm not sure I would've paid it any attention until now if I hadn't played it in elementary school a few times, so sure I guess. Also I find it weird that it was a PC exclusive and never ported to consoles. Seems like it would be the other way around if anything.

>>7731820
I loved that game back in the day, played to death with my bros

anyone into flatout and destruction derby style games?

>>7733748
Sure, but you've probably named all notable franchises in that genre already.

>>7733748
for me it's driven to destruction a.k.a. test drive eve of destruction

>>7733748
Other than adding demolition racer that is all of the /vr/ derby games. The only recent ones are wreckfest. There is a game on steam (fuck I haye steam's search engine) that i'm struggling to find that is essentially a mix of destruction derby 1 and 2. Looks kinda fun and basic which is all one needs really.

>>7733812
Wreckfest, aka Next Car Game.
It's shit. Slow as fuck and full of "muh realism" boredom.

>>7733854
That isn't the game I am looking for - I already know what wreckfest is.

>>7733854
>mentions wreckfest in his post
>DUDE IT'S WRECKFEST
Now who's slow as fuck?

You are right though, it's terrible.

>>7733878
It's wreckfest though
Just kidding

I do like the classic hotrod look of the Bomber but the handling is godawful even for this game.

>>7733854
Wreckfest is bad? I've been slowly trying to convince myself to give it a shot.

FlatOut is bad.

>>7735318
Yeah. Imagine making a game about demolition derby and making all the cars shitboxes that accelerate and turn at the speed of molasses. Imagine every track just being different variations of the same shitty dirt track, an insomnia-curing oval, or a figure-8 with maybe, MAYBE if you're a good boy, a loop-de-loop. It's incredible how they managed to make the game so unexciting, but then again it was already dead when they changed the physics model.

Oh, and the realism shit? They made it so hitting things and taking damage could break different components of the car, so if you ever wished for a demolition derby game where your car that's already slow to play even slower, now you can break your gearbox or radiator and overheat the engine, making you only able to T-bone your opponents at a brisk-speed 2 mph in the arena, for 30 minutes straight. Because that's fun in a game of this sort, right? Like spraining your ankle in a Tony Hawk game and having to play the remainder of the level without doing any tricks.

Meanwhile, in a good derby racer...

>>7735463
Oh my god, fucking this. I had more fun crashing into Sarte's chicanes in GRID because cars there actually got to go fast.

>>7704221

You mean a ame so rough you will actually phase through other racers a good chunk of the time? A game with physics so floaty the cars are made of cigar smoke? A game where actually focusing on causing damage will generally mean you lose as you NEED to get first or second to get the multiplier?

>>7736280
>A game where actually focusing on causing damage will generally mean you lose as you NEED to get first or second to get the multiplier?
Not that Anon, but most of the time the field has been so obliterated you get the multiplier by default.

I ALWAYS failed in Demolition Racer if I just tried to race normally. I would never get enough points to make the multiplier worthwhile.

Anyone here tried Burning road on ps1? daytona clone but good in its own right and a very decent challenge, trying to clear it atm, worth a look in.

>>7736271
>There's 1nsane and 1nsane 2 made by Targem Games
1nsane was made by Invictus Games. The only decent thing Targem made is Hard Truck Apocalypse and MAYBE Crossout and I'm saying this as a trash racing connoisseur.
>Death Track Resurrection
>Gear Grinder
dude, why would you play any of that shit if you're not a russian kid in 2009?

>>7736314
It is okay all told. I found the physics to be a bit wonky for drifting but it is worth a play. The sequel - which i've not played - looks to be better.

>>7736329
>1nsane was made by Invictus Games.
I know, i was referring to 2nd one.
>dude, why would you play any of that shit if you're not a russian kid in 2009?
Someone who is really into battle racers can find them interesting.

>>7736336
>I found the physics to be a bit wonky for drifting
takes some learning for sure but its starting to click, games hard enough on default easy mode, must be horrific on hard, did you clear it?

>>7736329
And even as russian kid in late 00s, i preferred Crashday.

>>7736354
> did you clear it?
No as honestly I played the game just as a passing curiosity last year as I was trawling through PS1 racing games that I hadn't played and were not total shit.

>>7736385
then you should try as thats hwen it really comes to life, hard ass game.

No wonder I think Demolition Racer: No Exit kind of sucks, it has the same underlying engine as the notoriously crap Test Drive 6. They barely changed it.

I just tried to force GT3 to use kmh instead of mph by converting a PAL save to NTSC-U, it worked, but it also made a portion of the menus Japanese and some broken localization strings.

pepega

>>7736280
>phase through other racers
That rarely ever happens.
>physics so floaty
How is it floaty? Because the cars go flying when they jump off a ramp at 200mph? Or because they get tossed into the air when you hit them at 200mph? Because that's called FUN physics.
>A game where actually focusing on causing damage will generally mean you lose
Race mode actually gives you more points for damaging opponents than getting first. If you just race to get 1st, you'll end up 7th in the scoreboard for being a pussy and not wrecking shit up. You can easily get 1st place in the final scoreboard if you cause as much damage as possible and end up as 2nd or 4th in the race. You're supposed to kill shit until you're a 10% health first, then try to finish in a good place.
Bitchboy complaints is all I'm hearing.

cause dumb kids and casuals who hate cars and driving don't know how to handle a car, therefor for max appeal most nfs games handle less realistically than mario kart.

TXR0 is a destruction derby but txr3 is fantastic.

>>7701094
MSR had actual time simulation which also reflected the seasonal daylight time.

That feature has never been seen since.

>>7701056
PGR2 is so fucking good

Silent is the hero we don't deserve.

>>7740737
holy shit

I forgot how good the music is in the game and man does this bring back some memories from playing the PS1 version.

>>7740737
interesting and i never actually played this, wil give it a go.

>>7736560
Play the original. No Exit is soulless.

>>7741829
Agreed. While it might look better, it doesn't play better.

What's the best racing game on the Saturn? Fagtona fans need not apply.

>>7741895
Sega Rally
F1 Challenge
Wipeout

>>7741895
None, the Saturn was ass at 3D games.

Get a Dreamcast.

Here are my psx racing games. I daily a stick g35 and have a sim rig but psx has some solid classics for its age that hold up as good arcade racers to this day. Option battle spec tuning R has live traffic and car modding with good physics on gd 1994 consumer hardware

>Driver
wut

>>7731884
oh Hell yea, landmines and shit
always picked the Lotus Elise

>>7742571
Driver was gta before gta

>>7742535
I'd add rcdego, burning road and demolition derby 2 + rage racer but thats a damn solid line up, anyone who owns sidebyside knows his shit.

Need more arcade racers, bros. Only played the Burnout games (loved them). Any recs? Xbox, PS2, PC only. Thanks~

>>7743298
Midnight Club 2 & 3
Midtown Madness 3
Ridge Racer 5
Sega Rally (there's a PS2 port)
Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3
Crazy Taxi even though it's not actually a racing game

>>7743298
Re-volt
Rollcage
Wipeout (might as well get BallisticNG on Steam if you want the wipeout experience)
Stunt GP
Fatal racing/whiplash

>>7743298
battle gear series is a MUST

>>7743298
It's barely not retro because it's an early X360 and PS3 title alongside a PC port, but Sega Rally Revo from 2007 is lots of fun.

>>7743379
/vroom/ doesn't care about whether or not it's retro.

>>7743552
maybe but tranny-jannies do

>>7743298
First 2 FlatOut games

>>7743379

Where did you get it from my guy?

>>7743379
instyalling this on pc now thanks to your suggestion

>>7743298

s.c.a.r.s

>>7743379
Revo is good until you play SR 1, SR 2, watch SR Online and realize how shitty the camera and music on Revo really are.

Alright guys, I got a psx emulator.
Which racing games should I download?

>>7744574
>>7742535
>>7743193
>>7729972
>>7743342

>>7736356
oh hell yeah, crashday is the real deal.

>>7744353
All the more reason to play it first so every further SR game will be an improvement.

I'm trying to recall which F1 games I've played on my uncle's Playstation as a wee lad and these two covers feel significantly more familiar than the rest, but what is actually the best F1 game on the PS1?

>>7745332
The one made by Psygnosis, which has TEUTONIC STOMP in its soundtrack.

>>7744353
What about the game though? if youre a shit player who just wants aesthetics then sure, revo plays pretty nice though.

>>7746581
It does play well but it also feels very lonely after playing it for an hour or two. It doesn't have the flair and cheesy singing of the originals to make it seem alive.

>>7731797

>>7748085
Last time it was posted on here anon was told to fuck off, so I guess VP is not allowed around these parts.

>>7748109
Whoever said that is a nignog.

>>7748085
i absolutely fucking love this game and tim trialled the shit out of it a couple yrs back. I even started playing the psx version to

>>7748007
i do agree desu, its souless, standard bugbear fare.

>>7748493
They only made psp version

>>7731797

>>7704221
That boxart gives me susumu matsushita vibes

>>7704221
lmao i was about to make this post because i went to wikipedia to figure out what "gran turismo" actually means as a racing term

>see pic related on ebay
>think "oh cool, a PS2-era game with notoriously shitty framerates was ported to the next gen console, surely it'll be much better"
>buy it, put it in and play
>still the same shit framerates except in 1080p HD
i feel ripped off

>>7749309
Why the fuck are you people still buying discs when you can just jailbreak your console and download ISO files into it? They read and load up faster than discs, too.

>>7749314
i dont feel like opening it up and soldering shit when i only play like 3-4 games on it anyways

>>7749318
Why not just play the PC version then? It's 60 fps out of the box and you can mod it.

>>7749330
i already did

>>7748490
>I even started playing the psx version to
That is some dedication anon as the DC version is so, so much better.

>>7701245
Is PGR any good? TJ Davis and Richard Jacques are the sole reason I have any interest in it

>>7749881
>>7701245
Whoops meant to say MSR

Re-Volt?
More like:
REEEEEEEEEE-VOLT!!!
Championship is as hard as I remember.

>>7749309
Have they ported the 360 textures into PC yet?

>>7749881
Yes

>>7749686
yeh i need to dig my dcast out, i only went psx cus the emu is easy

>>7749926
Get rvgl as it has a non-linear steering option which massively helps. Game is still a good challenge though.

We on autosage now
