I think a lot of people gloss over how much of an audio masterpiece this ad really is. Goes from mono beeps, to 8 bit chiptune, to 8 bit arcade stereo, to 16bit processed synth, to CD Audio, to Dobly Digital
I've always been a Gran Turismo guy but I occasionally pop back on RUclips to watch this trailer. Its great because its a love letter to gaming and shows how far we've come and where racing fans are going... which ever franchise you're a fan of.
After years I returned just to watch this ad again. Had it suddenly in my mind again. Still get goosebumps. I remember how I worked at the Frankfurt car exhibition 2015 (IAA) and this was played on a big screen over and over again. When I came home I immediately googled that spot. Best ad ever!
The Pole Position sample got me. This advert was the first one in my life to actually inspire me to buy something. I bought the Forza edition Xbox one in blue with the engine starting noise when you turn it on. As soon as Microsoft revealed they were bringing the Forza games to PC though I sold it straight away so literally only had it a few months. The advert is amazing still today
It's 2019 and I would still pay almost any amount of money to have a full-length remix of this beautiful song, including old arcade sfx and iconic racing game audio. ... I make bad decisions. Wow.
After 6 years, I finally looked into the story of this ad - there’s a blog post from “Xbox Wire Staff” detailing it a little bit. For one, they mentioned all the games referenced: “Gran Trak 10 (Atari, 1974), Pole Position (Bandai Namco 1982), RC Pro Am (Rare, 1987), Chase HQ (Taito, 1988), and Ridge Racer (Bandai Namco, 1993).” They also showed the rig they put a Ford GT prototype up on to photograph for the “past” shots before moving to in-game footage. Another note I had - in the Pole Position scene, you can see a billboard with the Galaga logo on it, and in the Ridge Racer scene you can see a game of Galaxian going on a screen.
I bought this game in 2015 only after I saw this ad and it gave me goosebumps! It is now 2021 and it's still my all time favorite ad and I watch it frequently.
2019 and I am still coming back to watch this ad and wished that all those tracks in the ad were a paid DLC but oh well, game developers have there own way of doing business.
What a great commercial. It almost makes me want an Xbox One. For those who didn't catch it, this commercial parodies classic arcade racing games starting with Speedway, then RC Pro AM, then Pole Position, then Spy Hunter, then Chase H.Q, then OutRun, and then finally the past Forza games. If you're a retro gamer seeing Chase HQ and OutRun presented like this makes this commercial worth watching even if you have no interest in the Xbone or Forza in general. Like I said, what a great commercial.
Absolutely the best ad for a game ever. It hits EVERY spot. Even though I’m just 21, I get chills from hearing Pole Position. Still don’t have the full game though. I’ll buy an XB1X later this year so I can play
@@luminisant Thanks! Gonna be preordering FH5 UE in a month or so. And today, my dad is preordering the 25th Anniversary Edition of GT7 for my birthday. I'm super happy!
Had it not been for this commercial, the Ford GT wouldn't have become my second favorite dream car. Just seeing how cool this car was made in the ad and seeing how cool of a design it is really gave it a certain kind of awesome.
I’ve never seen this commercial but one very similar (went from 8 bit to realistic throughout the ad) but they are both great! Unfortunately, no, I don’t remember what the other ad was for. It had cars, I think a blue one and orange one, progressing from 8-bit to modern with all the steps in between. The commercial _may_ have been for something similar to Hotwheels AI and Anki Overdrive, but again I don’t remember it too well.
As someone who grew up with this game, I think the original Gran Turismo deserved to be featured here amongst the classic racing games. We can’t ignore how huge it was for it’s time. And without GT, Xbox wouldn’t have had reason to make Forza!
I was looking at the logo after FORZA 5 came out thinking ‘people are already theorising about FORZA 6?!?!? But then I realised it was for FORZA Motorsport lol
Heheh. Odd story of coincidence. My original xbox had 'Danger! High Voltage' on it's hard drive. And I'd very often listen to it whilst playing the original forza. So it's a weird feeling how they chose that song for the advert for a forza game made ten years later.
This game was way ahead of its time.. it’s much better than FM7 graphics and small detail wise. Songs are good ad is good. EVERYTHING IS GOOD I miss good games. FM7 came out in 2017. While FM6 Came out in 2015
I love how this ad progresses, honestly one of the best ads ive ever seen, and it uses electric six - danger danger high voltage as the music (dont watch the video for that song btw its traumatising)
2020: This is still one of the greatest ads ive ever seen. I dont think it will be topped any time soon.
NFS 2010 was really good too, but this one takes the cake.
I think the crew had the best
Halo Wars 2 Know Your Enemy is great.
Ads back then were so special, nowadays the ads and the trailers are lame as fuck :(
Endangered species Forza Motorsport 4

Honestly Id kill for the full version of the remix because its amazing
and the transitions between audio’s are spot on with the games they are referencing
I would love a remix too! The audio is incredible
The fact that we are denied a full version of this song is a Crime against humanity. I wish I was competent enough to just make this myself.
2023: it is still the best ad for a racing game
2018: It's still the best ad for a racing game
verdade
You mean the best racing game (ok maybe not the best but it still looks lit)
Do u know what song it is because it is amazing
Meme Master electric six danger high voltage
Are we going to have to pick up some stuff
I normal don't like ads, but this one is high voltage.
I see what you did there.
It's Danger
🧐🧐🤯🤣🤣🤣
Took the words right out of my mouth@@marcobrancorsini2479
2024: it is still the best ad for a racing game
It’s now 2022, and this is still the coolest ad I’ve ever seen!
2021: this is still the best ad for a racing game yet. Especially since this was made for TV
2020: still the best racing ad ever
THE XBOX DUDES / SPACEBOY1977 and the last forza where every car had perfect sounds
I love this ad
This one is also really good ruclips.net/video/CHLZm177Q2Q/видео.html

Agreed, and yet I’ve never played the game, I just find it amazing as a Gran Turismo fan
Finally! An Ad that is actually interesting!

2021: still going strong as the best ads ever
Sitting in the living room glued to my tv seeing this ad every now and then, waiting for Christmas to come in 2015, good memories

This trailer still holds up and is an audio masterpiece

HowToDoge ikr I still come back to this video to listen it’s such an awesome version :(((
What’s the song
@@pinacoladatv808 Danger! High Voltage (Soulchild Radio Mix) by Electric Six
The arcade edit they did sounds so good
It is Rip off Mario kart 😂😂😂😂 Nice try Microsoft
Danger danger
Ah. The last forza where every sound was basically perfect
Alright bro lemme take those nostalgia goggles off u real quick
@@Icaruuuuussswell he ain't wrong, the gt350R was insanely accurate
I can't believe this was 7 years ago, I didn't feel how fast we were going in time.
yoo, after 3 years, still get goosebumps for this trailer, even if I have played literally 500hrs on this game
When that ridge racer announcer kicks in, chills. Phenomenal advert 👌
2023: STILL THE BEST
Honestly one of the coolest advertisements I've ever seen.

Another note I had - in the Pole Position scene, you can see a billboard with the Galaga logo on it, and in the Ridge Racer scene you can see a game of Galaxian going on a screen.
Please make that a game mode at least as a dlc
I bought this game just cause of that and I don’t regret it
2024: still the greatest ad for a racing game

Meh, they're cool but in the game itself, utterly unnecessary. It's a tribute ad to games of old.
What a great commercial. It almost makes me want an Xbox One.

+Satoshi Matrix Plus the music's good too, which makes it ok to sit through if you're listening to it in the background.

hmmm either OutRun or Ridge Racer

Ridge Racer not Outrun.
Bro took it personal when they said “get real”
The new Ford gt races through the 80s and 90s racers that's cool

@@MrJr1976 Wow awesome, happy birthday! I’m planning to get FH5 too but just the standard edition.
@@MrJr1976 great bro, lets hope that the next forza motorsport is good
It appeared in 2015, but that's not gone in 2024!!!
What? It's Not True!!

0:46 - I'm Yoshikage Kira, 33 years... I want a Ford GT 16'
1:03 this sense of speed
That transition in the tunnel to Forza still gives me chills, but in a good way
2023: still best racing game ad🙂
One of the most badass racing trailers of the decade period!
2022: This is still one of the greatest racing game ads
Car commercials should do this showing evolution of their brand or something like that.
holy shit the best music ever!

The song is Danger! High voltage by electric six
still watching this comercial in 2021 lol
Best forza ad of all time
2021: I miss FH3, also it still the greatest ad I've ever seen.

2022: still the best ad for a racing game
Still one of the best Motorsport games as of December 2021. Motorsport 4 still tops the charts for me, though.
2022: Best ad for a racing game ever
this one is hitting the spot, looks like we got all nostalgic games from late 70s to current technology high advance racing games.
*Clearly the ad all racing games fans wanted to see.*
2021: Still the best ad for a racing game.
I was looking at the logo after FORZA 5 came out thinking ‘people are already theorising about FORZA 6?!?!? But then I realised it was for FORZA Motorsport lol
2024, sigue siendo el mejor anuncio de un videojuego de carreras que haya visto
Trailer is under appreciated as hell!!
JR Gomez I.K.R
This ad rules cause it shows the evolution of racing games
2024- yeah, still one of the best ads for a game ever made
Love how turn 10 pays homage to past racing games
Paul Schauer that’s because FM6 Was the best Xbox One forza!
This is the perfect ad for Forza
0:46
Bro that’s Kira Yoshikage
2024 y sigue siendo hermoso edte comercial
Holy shit I remember how hyped I was. Now I want to play FM6 again even though I have FM7 installed....
The Lockenbubi dude, even tho there is almost nobody in fm6’s lobbys, I still play this game since 2015 🤟
It’s free right now
2022 still got it !
That is so cool it shows old racing games from the late 70s early 80s 80s late 80s early 90s 90s and late 90s.
2020 and it still the best game and ad of this gen
still one of the best commercials
2022: its just too much for this ad to be good.

If all ads were like this then the skip button would be useless

Xbox before Gamepass... When it was still glorious...

Songs are good ad is good. EVERYTHING IS GOOD
I miss good games.
FM7 came out in 2017. While FM6 Came out in 2015
Why can't the actual FM games have this much soul
If this was a gran turismo ad I would've skipped it but thank god it was forza
0:02: the XBOX narrator has shut up
Forza 6s trailer still not become old today, rather it's stil one of the best trailer.
0:47 WTF! Why is Yoshikage Kira driving a car?
What game you say???
Bruh u right. That’s what caused the explosions
@@orcastrike7750 KIRA QUEEN DAISAN NO BAKUDAN BITES ZA DASTO

Its 2020 and still goooood
Crazy to think this was 9 years ago
I'm a Gran Turismo fan
But this add is just perfect ;)
Who’s here in 2020?
I keep popping back to listen to the music. This trailer is put together sublimely......sound effects/music/editing. It’s so perfect
Such a great ad... now where are my car keys! 😉
Why even THINK of driving after this CRINGE??????
This is dope
Probably the best game ad I’ve seen
