Liminal tunnel.

I think open world was a bad move they made in 2

>>9766845
Idk, open world was really big with games like GTA and most people prefer UG2. I like UG1 better but I'm the minority on this.

>>9766765
R34 is the most overrated Skyline GTR and R33 is the most underrated. Prove me wrong.

>>9766886
Elaborate.

>>9766845
EA decided to to strike while the iron is hot and ordered Black Box to work on Underground 2 while they were making Most Wanted (a sequel to Hot Pursuit 2). That's where the open world comes from, and why it's so underutilised compared to MW's pursuits

>>9766912
R33 while not as legendary as R32 still has more significant motorsports cred than R34. The latter is a movie and videogame star.

>>9766925
TIL. Would like to know more about the development.

>>9766717
because of this game I thought the radio edit of get low was the only version. It was great timing this game, along finding Initial D and outrun2 at the same time, and burnout 3 with party crash.. freshman in college was good times.
had a lot of fun playing this on pc with a gravis pad, and I think I used the keyboard for drag races. Should get it going again.

>>9766717
i never got these because i thought 2000's was the absolute darkest time for car designs.
i only played vidya that let me drive boomermobiles.

>>9769079
It is, but this game best cars are 90s classics:
>A80 Supra
>R34 Skyline
>FD RX-7
>Second gen Eclipse
>MX-5
Only NSX is missing really. Who cares about 2000s shit when you have these?

For me, its midnight club 3: dub edition

>>9769104
Interesting, figured there would be a few 90’s cars. Never liked ricers but everyone and their brother loved this game growing up. It was up there with GTA as one of those games most people had on their PS2.

AHH SKEET SKEET MUHFUGGA

>>9766845
Open world is generally bad for racing games. Racing should be a very focused experience, all about going fast and negotiating clear-cut corners. The open world thing was just to impress audiences back in the day, and to just give a false sense of value to audiences nowadays.

>>9769240
mindblowing they put that music in a kids game

>>9769486
Why are you talking about a game you never played?

TO THE WINDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
TO THE WALL

Top comfy nostalgia, and runs flawlessly on Win10.

I played it on release and it became my chillout-come-down game for the next few years.
Whenever I came home drunk on the weekends I would do a course or two and then go to sleep.
I also have the soundtrack in my car.

>>9766717
Need for Speed was based.
Another good game,

>>9766717
For as much as I adore the Underground Duology, my only real issue with the 1st one is the rubberbanding on the AI. It feels significantly more cheap than it does in other games in the series

>>9766717
I Burnout's crash mode was based.

>>9766886
you're right. need to add that r32 is the best one.

>>9770574
I have a soft spot for r30

>>9772167
based

when i replayed it it felt like the tracks were really repetitive

If PS2 version of a game is decompiled, could that be used for decompilining OG Xbox and GameCube versions and finding differences between them? Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time isn't being used to decompile DS, 3DS versions of those games. I'm guessing the reason that doesn't work there is because they are closer to remake.
Could that be used to take best parts from each port to make the best version of a game?
Midnight Club 3 on PS2 has better rain effects. Burnout on PS2 has more sparks and things like that. Always wanted to see a port combines both Xbox and PS2 versions of those.

Would this approach tell us all the difference between PS2 and PC/GC/Xbox versions of Hot Pursuit 2?

>>9770001
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Is there a Rolf Harris one too?

MW>U2>U1
And all of them get mogged by Porsche 2000

>>9770001
still remember reading a post from a retard who refused to play any game that had Lostprophets on the soundtrack

>>9773551
porsche is not actually a good game

>>9769508
it's mostly censored edited i think

>>9774576
I can sympathise on the basis that their music was always shit.
It's not okay that he raped those kids either. Don't get me wrong. But their music was just terrible.

>>9774678
*night of fire plays for a second while the car passes you*

>>9766845
This. GTA III ruined gaming.

>>9766717
I can't stand the rubberbanding in these games.

>>9775593
don't upgrade your car

>>9775668
Some races require you to upgrade

>>9775591
based as fuck

>>9766717

You don't need that many brain cells to put 2 and 2 together that Underground 2 was made by a B team by just adding more to the previous game, while A team uses the extra year(s) to work on the next big thing. Underground 2 sucks.

>>9766717
they dont make them like they used to
