Porsche Unleashed on PS1 actually came before it's PC counterpart, simular to how it was with NFS 3, and strangly The Need For Speed on the 3DO, with NFS2 being (I think second on PS1)
@@St_Rizla yeah it's the way the car turns with the camera, very V-Rally. It's a good one, overall. It's visually much smoother than NFS 3 and 4 which can be very choppy at times.
if the PC version had the open cities with different paths in one map, the cop chases and all the music from the PS 1 specially to differentiate the campaign era you where currently, then the pc version would have been perfect
@@Elinzar The PC version is more about the history of Porsche and the details of the cars than the racing action. I spent about as much time examining the cars in the garage and reading the historical information as I did driving in that game. The point for me wasn't necessarily to win the race but to enjoy driving the various Porsche models through the countryside and explore the aspects of each unique car. I think one of the reasons I like this game so much is precisely because of the fact that it's not just a standard arcade-oriented lap racer. It's very much a game designed to simulate a real experience.
"Actually, i'm trying to understand why PC NFS Porsche is considered by many to be the best NFS" I'll tell you why. That version in despite to lack some content from the PS1 version has the best driving physics of all the franchise. The handling of every car (at least on the PC version) is not near of realistic but still is perfect balanced between the arcade and the real life, not so hard to master for a casual player but still a challenge for a sim driver. The presentation of the game offers only the neccesary to take a car and take a spin, it has beautiful landscapes, an oustanding soundtrack and all the love that EA (in a time when cared about the player and the consumer) put on a game to pay tribute to Porsche. One youtuber said: NFS Porsche is one of the few games based on actually historical racing (along with GP Legends and GT Legends), and I'm agree with that
The pc version is nostalgic for me. I feel in love with Porsche’s because of this game. Porsche boosted its sales 25 year before they even made the cars with this game LOL
@@fahmi_simin639 yes feeping of music but all you hear is 8 bit shitfests in the soundtrack...the pc version is superior in every way except the lower framerate intro videos and history videos
@@fahmi_simin639 i have listened to the whole soundtrack in the highest quality possible...sorry to say bud but its dogshit...even the ps1 nfs high stakes had a better soundtrack

@@fahmi_simin639 ive also downloaded each games soundtrack including ps1 version ones too but i skip the porsche unleashed ps1 soundtrack because its garbage compared to pc version....just admit it...the pc version is superior in handling, graphics, physics, attention to detail and soundtrack....your ps1 version just isnt no match
@@fahmi_simin639 if you think im a fake fan tell me why do i waste nearly more than half of my life researching about old and new nfs games...and listening to its soundtracks all day long...smh i believe i should call you the fake fan here
This game is the main reason why I started loving PORSCHE'S. The games are completely different in their platforms, but the way they have carried out the concept is quite similar !!! My first experience of NFS PORSCHE came in my PS1 and then the PC Version. Still pains me the fact that my father sold my PS1 without telling me... That intro video is the BEST EVER in the NFS Series in my view. And that intro of 959 with the police siren is complete epicness !!!
And the challenging damage system. You drive over a street lamp or bump into an opponent and your car gets harder to control or becomes a complete mess. Unlike in later games where you could destroy the whole city and only barely got temporarly scratches on the paint - if any.
@@Helsvga You've misinterpreted the term "arcade". It means "for fun" or "for amusement", whereas Simulator actually means "software, which simulates reality". Kapish?
same. My pc was to bad to really play the pc version i bought, so i rented the psx version and i was like wtf? Even compared to my unplayable PC version it was bad.
Soundtrack in both PS1 and PC was pretty much the same. Few tracks didn’t appear on PC but they wouldn’t fit the PC theme and at the same time they were great pick for PS1 styled game
Interestingly enough, the GBA port seems to be patterned after the PC version in terms of Point-to-point racing. Its also crazy that they got a fully 3D Polygonal racing game to run that smoothly on the GBA. Its quite impressive for a 2001 handheld system. EA used to have talented people working for them.
Faço parte da parcela de fãs da era clássica dos NFS que considera o Porsche Unleashed de PC o melhor já feito. Jogo extremamente completo e bem feito. Divertido de jogar até hoje. Pena ser tão difícil conseguir fazer ele rodar em hardwares atuais.
Eu sei gostar das comparações viu? Acho todas bem sensatas e a qualidade dos vídeos é impecável!! Esse foi um NFS que não joguei, mas só de olhar eu iria preferir a do PSX mesmo, por conta da jogabilidade que pra mim é vital em um jogo de corrida de automóvel. Parabéns continue o ótimo trabalho!
@FGGG Bits One of the best NFS with real damage system....

Porsche Unleashed (PC) has a super fun driving physics! That's one of the reasons I love it so much. I don't really car about the brand that much. But physics, levels,very different cars from different eras from the Porsche brand. That's so cool.
@@fahmi_simin639 so... The pc version of nfs porsche is also known as a nfs game with the best handling physics. That's why i so much love pc version. But I understand you... If I started playing the ps1 version i will also say that the ps1 version is better.
@@gulas_s_houskovym_knedlikem The best handling on the series? Only because is realistic doesnt mean is better. Previous games in the series where arcade, with the perfection in controls made with NFS3 and 4 that give you complete control over your car (in the PC release at least). Porsche Unleashed controls is stiff at best and sometimes if you dont upgrade specific cars, at worst is very frustrating.
@@sebastiankulche Try to drift and it will become very hard and realistic. As you are right that NFS Porsche and PS1 really have a very good soundtrack. However, the thing I loved very much about the PC version before was, firstly, the difficulty and secondly the realism of the cars (for example, the cars tilted and when you drove terribly fast with an older car, most of the car overturned and the race was actually "over") I have played only the older nfs games like NFS 1, 2, 3 Hot Pursuit, 4 High Stakes and NFS Porsche of course. I have actually enjoyed the factory driver game mode. So just please try to play the pc version factory driver for a while and you will see thats its actually good (not awesome)
É o NFS que mais joguei antes do primeiro Most Wanted. Jogava o de PC, e por vezes ficava monótono, principalmente no início com os primeiros Porsches.
I like it the most of all NFS games too (PC). Mainly because I think it´s the only really "grown up" game in the franchise. And there´s some nostalgia indeed. Let me give you my reasons: 1) Atmosphere of the menu - awesome garage, auctions to make money, historic videos, great music. 2) Tuning options - back then, almost no games had possibility to tune your car this way - sway bars, shocks, fibreglass bodies, it´s all just lovely and noticeable in game. 3) Love the Porsche cars, but really, graphics are so bad and even the sound is nothing like the real car, so not sure if this is the real reason. 4) Great tracks both audio and race ones, Cote d´Azur, Schwarzwald, Monte Carlo, Zone Industrielle and Alps are just unforgettable :) 5) Drive feel - I know it´s a bit sluggish, but I really think it´s the way developers wanted it to be to feel real. Questionable choice indeed, but your irl car won´t make a 90° turn doing 130mph even if it´s a Porsche too. 6) Fixed camera - your camera won´t move further away with speed and closer while braking, this is soo huge for me that I don´t even play most modern race games because of this. 7) Played it as a kid with my father and we all know these are the best games when we grow up. PS: Fuck Dylan
@@Fogwell94 Yes that I can absolutely agree with. The PC version does not really have a good selection to be honest. The PS1 version has some awesome techno mixed with other genres as well.
I remember owning a copy for my Windows 98. When people first saw this including Need For Speed High Stakes on the PC version, everyone nearly vomit and flew off their chairs from what they saw what the PC version could do! Quick Fun Fact: This game was ported to 3 platforms. PC, PlayStation, & Game Boy Advance, believe it or not.
Porsche Unleashed on PC was one of the first games I played in my life and it planted a Porsche seed in my brain that has made me into the huge Porsche fan that I am today. I came to know some years back that the PS1 version was vastly different and why the PC version is hailed as one of the best ever made is the historical data on Porsches, the game design and most of all, the 4-point physics. This is one of a handful of times when a PC game, and the only NFS game, came close to replicating a real car's handling. The way the cars handle, brake, shift weight, power slide, spin out etc. in the PC version is 95% accurate to how they handle in real life. That's the main thing that sells the game for me, and something that no other NFS ever managed to do again. The PS1 on the other hand, I've come to appreciate that it's also an incredibly well made game with lots of attention to detail (first NFS to have flame spitting exhaust!), much closer in spirit to older games like Hot Pursuit 1998 and High Stakes, but where it falls behind is in the car handling department. Usually PS games have superior handling physics compared to PC, but apparently not with this one. Still a great game though, and one I'd love to play, if (and when) only I could acquire a PS1. Thanks for the video though! That was a good one!
People that think that this NFS is the best one must love Porsche cars a lot. I personally quite like them but it's not really the best NFS ever, but amongst the best imo. The thing I like the most about this game is the historic career mode that allows you to purchase Porsche cars from earlier to later eras and the ability to purchase car modications and tuning.
eu amo seu canal e ja a acompanho faz muitos tempo .... quem diz q nao vale a pena comparar jogos antigos é por que nao sabe dar valor a um jogo e sim só a gráficos... eu jogo até hj atari, por que isso me diverte igual a jogar ps4... comparar os jogos é importante para quem gosta de detalhes... eu fiquei super surpreso em saber que o luigi da versão super mario all star + super mario wolrd é totalmente diferente do cartucho super mario world .... e isso é legal pra caramba por que faz parte da historia do VG. grande abraço e continue com seu belissimo trabalho !
Joguei as duas versões, mas muito mais no PC, acho que o NFS Porsche e muito querido pois tem um modo carreira que passeia pela historia, vindo desde a decada de 50 ate os tempos modernos com muitas fotos, videos, musicas e ambientes trazidos de cada época, como por exemplo o circuito de Mônaco, que é Cote D'azur, voce ve a evolução do circuito com o passar dos anos, tanto do traçado, quanto da estética! Se fosse lancado pra pc's atuais, certamente compraria!!!!!
I'd say that it looks more like a N64 game. Dreamcast had better looking racing games back then, especially looking at the textures and effects. Not 100% sure about polycount, as the console had some severe bottlenecks, hence fog being used so heavily to mask draw distance.
@@dffagundo imo certain Dreamcast racers look as good as ps2, while others look more like this. I haven't seen n64 quite to this caliber. Even ps1 gt2 was more detailed than anything n64. Ps1 is just very pixelated, but its also sharp and detailed while n64 is much smoother yet kinda blurred and chunky. Hard to explain.. I've played some great n64 racers tho so I don't want to knock it, just my opinion.
@@dffagundo Maybe you are used to nowadays racing games, but I played NFS Porsche on PC back in the day and N64 was by no means close to PC graphics. MSR on Dreamcast it's a closer comparison.
Ah yes, back when EA still put out quality games. These are both quite good, and different enough that you could own both, without feeling like you bought the same game twice. I do prefer the PC version's point-to-point races though, as it offered up something different than tracks and laps. To answer your question about which NFS I like best? Hot Pursuit! Outrunning the cops was such a thrill.
@@robertkemp5362 Its one of the first PlayStation games I actually got to really sit down and try. Before that I'd only got to play demo kiosks and the like.
Although the PC version is superior I find the Playstation version more impressive considering the MASSIVE difference in power between the two hardware wise.
I played the PC version years ago. Had no idea the PS1 version was so different. I liked the menu music on the PC much better. Also preferred the less glossy finish on all the cars. I think what made Porsche Unleashed so great was it's handling and driving. It wasn't arcade-like at all. You could see how much slower the surroundings were zooming bye as opposed to the PS1 version, but yet you still felt like you were driving fast. You had to be very careful driving because you had to spend money to repair your car after each race. That and the handling was so much more grounded than other games. You really felt in complete control of the car which you needed to be since you had to be more careful. It really felt like a challenge to win, but not in an artificial way. And the textures. So much richness and on such an old title.
I prefer the PS1 version despite the windows version having better graphic because I grew up with the PS1 version and had a lot of fun playing it. Oh the memories :)
The reason a lot of people thing NFS:Porsche 2000 was the best in the NFS franchise, is probably because it was one of the only 2 NFS games that were more simulation than arcade(at least on the PC version), the other one being the original NFS for MS-DOS/3DO. I remember being at my friends house playing the Demo of NFS II on his Windows 95 PC and hating it. Not that I think NFS II is a bad game, just that I was hoping for something more like NFS 1, whereas NFS II turned out to be a pure Arcade racer.
conteúdo top, eu lembro quando tive meu primeiro pc e fui jogar o NFS Porsche, era beeem diferente do PS1 e fiquei frustrado na época, mas nem me passava pela cabeça que não eram o "mesmo game"
Man, the pc version was my childhood It was one of the first games I've ever played, when i was 5/6 years old I remember playing it on my dad's notebook, even not understanding not even a bit of english I miss those times where i used to play carbon, underground, most wanted, porsche unleashed...
*Tu deve tá meio doido de achar que a versão de Play 1 eh melhor e teve + dedicação por parte da EA mas provavelmente deve ser por causa da nostalgia de quando vc jogou na época.* *Eu joguei muito esse NFS no PC, era viciado, lindo, divertido d+, desafiante, as pistas são inesquecíveis, trilha sonora incrível e um detalhe que vc não mencionou eh que a versão de PC era toda em português do Brasil.* *Jogo lendário!* 😍
To me Need For Speed Porsche is the best Need For Speed because of the love it was given by developers When it came out the graphics looked awesome, realistic and maps were detailed aswell and they did vary. If you compared this with High Stakes then it is easy to notice giant leap forward in terms of aforementioned graphics but also physics and number of vehicles available in the game Sure the game teased us with 100+ models while in reality it was exactly the same model with different badges (like 356 1100/1300/1500 etc) but those were the details that I appreciate up to this day. Nowadays in modern games we get one model of specific car even if it had few versions Physics as already said - different cars behaved differently and on different track. You had to know how to use the throttle and brake (incl handbrake) Porsche had the best racing modes. While it wasn’t focused on a story or plot like Most Wanted or Carbon it presented us with Evolution mode and Factory Driver. Both were difficult especially for a kid of an age of 6-7 who wasn’t aware of vehicle tuning in this game. I remember being stuck at the 914 trophy when I was finishing 4th at best because of lack of tuning knowledge. When I found out about it and when I progressed further in the tournaments - better feeling than an orgasm You can’t really hate on this release of franchise. From my experience there are two types of people when it comes to NFS5 1. Those who played it and love it 2. Those who didn’t play it and they should. I envy those who didn’t play it and if they ever decide to give it a try - it will be their first time!
First time I played Porsche Unleashed on PC in 2000 on my first home PC, I was 12 years old and had one or two years PC gaming experience. Porsche Unleashed was second NFS game (after high stakes) which I played. It was early and therefore strong feelings. For this reason I think Porsche Unleashed my favourite NFS game. Possible it was imprint in psychological terms.
Apesar da versão do PC ter um grafico bem superior(pois nessa epoca as placas de video da antiga 3DFX ja conseguiam resultados muito bons) a versão do PS1 tem graficos bem dencentes se comparado aos classicos Gran Turismo 2, Driver, Test Drive 6, e o Proprio NFS 4. Esse jogo e bem aclamado principalmente pelo modo Carrera/Historia onde vc começa no passado comprando os primeiros modelos porsche e vai evoluindo de epoca(Estilo Age of empires :P) ate poder comprar os carros mais modernos, e bem interessante mesmo. Não sou um fan da porsche mas admito que esse jogo prendeu minha atenção exatamento por esse extra.
Back in late 90s or early 2000s it was huge difference playing on console and PC. 😎 PC was totally different quality! Now the quality between PS5 and strong PC is marginal...
the 2GHz CPU patch, there are other PC games that have this problem i think. it's when the CPU is running over 2GHz and the games textures break on some older directX or 3dfx games. (for those who don't know what this is, now you know)
@SilverX95 I didn't give a great explanation haha. Just a quick overview. It does look alot better with the patch especially in races. Still play this occasionally on pc.
Of all NFS games up to the first NFS Most Wanted, this was one easily the one I played the least. I am talking about PC. While I like Porsche cars and usually play them quite a lot in every racing game it has them, something about this game put me off. After almost 20 years I still can't pinpoint what it was. Thank you for a very nice video. Good job.
Primeira vez jogando NFS foi nesse, mas não lembrava de nada afinal ja fazia muito tempo. Vim rejogar depois de grande e cara que jogo bom, as paisagens das pistas dão sua sensação de estar fazendo um Grand Tour, jogabilidade um pouco puxada pra simulação deixa um ar realista gostoso de se jogar. Uma obra de arte em um jogo histórico
The PC version might have graphics, semi-realistic handling and mods. But the PS1 just has a certain character to it that makes it more of what I'm looking for in a Need For Speed game. Arcade physics with realistic cars while celebrating Porsche's history at the same time. If I want realism in the late 90s early 2000s it's either Gran Turismo or GP Legends not Need For Speed.
I think it had the right amount of realism. It shared engine with High Stakes on PS1 (it's weird that NFS Porsche on PS1 did not), so it's a true classic NFS, and I see a lot of character: you can really tell the differences between models and feel the evolution generation by generation, while keeping the same Porsche DNA, which is perfect for a game based on a single brand like Porsche.
I wish they combined elements of both into ultimate PC version - there is lack of cars in PC version, mainly 959, 917 LM and some of the special GT versions, also the PS version had better music changing each era - despite that, I managed to get this running on WIN10 and the game is still rewarding with an OK handling model, maybe more tracks could have been added (for example using the test track from factory driver), sure game from 2000 had limitations
@@ntl9974 never checked the actual count, which I believe is not important, just the epic classics missing in PC version is what struck me, I mean 917 and 959 are the most epic of Porsche classics
Nunca tinha visto a versão do PC, parece melhor por conta dos gráficos mas a jogabilidade da versão do PlayStation 1 é sensacional, joguei muito esse jogo foi um dos games de corrida que mais joguei, realmente é muito bom. E sou fã de Porsche mas não é unanime que seja o melhor da franquia pois os outros também são muito bons. Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho!
NFS3, NFS5 PU and NFSU are my most favorite in the series. Sadly after NFSU EA got stuck in the boring rehashing of the same idea or trying too hard to add "story" to a racing game that doesn't need one, even NFS HP from 2010 was just Burnout with cops.
Porsche Unleashed on PC was more of a driving simulator than a racing game. It focused on accurately recreating the experience of driving a Porsche and covering the entire history of the company and its cars. Rather than doing laps on tracks, you drive from point A to point B as fast as possible and the point of it is to enjoy the car as much as to win the race. I always felt like I was in the minority by liking Porsche Unleashed more than other NFS games, primarily because NFS dropped all of its driving simulator aspirations after the first game in the series, and it's understandable that lots of people find more enjoyment in arcade racing games than driving simulators. The handling is more deliberate and realistic in Porsche Unleashed than most NFS games, which can make it feel slower, but it seems like a much more accurate representation of the real cars. This game is really for diehard Porsche fans. I spent almost as much time looking at the car models in the garage, opening doors, examining interior details, etc, as I did actually playing the game. The care that went into every little detail is obvious. The Playstation version on the other hand looks like a reworked version of the previous NFS game with the Porsche licensing slapped on. I'm not saying that it's necessarily a bad game, but it kind of defeats the purpose of using the Porsche license, because it's essentially now just a standard NFS game limited to nothing but Porsches, which I think is probably not what the average NFS fan wants. Maybe Porsche Unleashed should have been released under a different title. It definitely sticks out in the NFS catalog with its focus on realism and a single marque. I would also have to assume that the Porsche focus and simulator aspect probably resulted in this game having fewer sales than a lot of NFS entries.
NFS Porsche, Shift and Shift 2 are the only Need for Speeds that have somewhat realistic physics (handling) and were more toward a simulator than an arcade racer like the rest of the NFS games (other NFS games are pure arcade and unrealistic). I didn't like NFS Shifts because of their before apex understeer to after apex oversteer thing and I prefer the physics of NFS Porsche. Beside that, it' unique and real story-history, the showroom, progressing through the time and... all of that good stuff was awesome and in fact I've played some one-make racing games (World Racing, SCAR, Corvette, Ford Racing) and I really liked them. NFS Porsche was my first exposure to a (semi) simulator and I played it with a keyboard back then. I like to play it again but it's graphics, specially the resolution of gauge textures in cockpit view is extremely low and outdated now. NFS Porsche is the only NFS that if they make a remastered version of it with just a little better graphics I'll buy it in a heartbeat to play it with my wheel and I'm sure I'll have a lot of fun.
Sem sombra de dúvidas, prefiro do ps1. Já joguei os dois, tanto no pc quanto ps1. O do ps1 os gráficos são bem antigos, mas para a época até eram bem legais pro ps1. O ambos possuem um modo Evolution: O principal modo. mas aí acaba a diferença, a versão do ps1 modo tem mais originalidade, pois cada fase: Classic era (anos 50 e 60), Golden Era (70 a 80), até a Modern era (90 a 2000), possuí menus e música com o tema de cada era, deixando o jogo interessante, na versão pc isso não existe. E sem falar na jogabilidade muito estradanha do pc: parece que você está dirigindo um sabonete e as vezes dá sensação que o carro flutua e não está encostando no chão kkkkkkkkk . E a versão do ps1 é muito legal, pois você sente a jogabilidade de cada carro escolhido e sem falar do dual shock que foi muito bem usado nesse jogo. Pois cada derrapada o dual shock funciona conforme a intensidade da mesma, batidas também etc.
Anécdota. Mi amigo tenía en su local de video juegos la versión de play1 fanático de Sony . Un día lo invite a mi casa a jugar la versión PC. El tipo cerraba antes el local y me llamaba para decirme si podía venir a jugar.. Jajajaj. Después de un tiempo ; obvio se compró su PC. Respecto a la comparación; bueno existía un abismo entre play y pc. Mas allá de las diferencias técnicas lo que más rescato es las sensaciones detrás del volante (conducción) Era un paso adelante acertado entre árcade y simulación. Que decir de los encuentros vía Internet. La personalización de tus autos a través de miniprogramas. Un clásico instantáneo.
É a única fabricante automotiva no mundo que merece ter um jogo só pra ela! A Porsche tem algo que as outras não tem, TRADIÇÃO e que é visto em todos os seus carros, todos os carros tem identidade com a marca. Tal coisa que não vejo em outros marcas. Apesar de ser muito fã da Porsche, não é meu jogo preferido da franquia, mas merece todo o respeito daqueles que gostam de automobilismo!
Recuerdo como si fuera ayer, pasar de juegar este juego en un pentium II, con un voodoo banshee 16mb, monitor de 14' ya con el brillo bastante bajo por el pasar del tiempo, a jugarlo en un Pentium III, con un monitor de 17 viewsonic, una TNT2, sonido sound blaster live! con los parlantes creative soundworks 4.1, con un gamepad analogo microsoft sidewinder game pad pro. Me quedo en la lista de pendientes comprar un volante, para este, y otros tantos juegos. Que manera de disfrutarlo, jugaba las mismas carreras una y otra vez, era un placer jugarlo.
I have played both versions and both have their positives and negatives. Like the physics(PC) or the freeroam(ps1). I remember these games had cops and the ps1 cops were crazy.
@@ntl9974 There is potential to have more varied Porsche cars instead of duplicates with minor differences. If someone were to make a remake, they should separate the car categories into four factions: Classic era, Golden era, Silver era (The original modern era) and the Modern era (A new modern era with the more current line-up of Porsche vehicles).
I played the two versions back in those days and the PS1 is by far my favorite just for the evolution mode. In the PS1 you had free roaming test drive, every location was open world and every track were different layouts like in NFS U2, also the locations change depending on the era. The PC version had amazing graphics, but the career mode was not that interesting and the gameplay was not that great imo (I know it's more a simulator but this is Need for Speed: an arcade racing franchisee).
Need For Speed actually started out as a driving simulator. So to me, this is more keeping with the spirit of the original game. But yeah, by the time this came out it had already shifted clearly towards arcade racing. I think that made it a bit of an odd entry to the franchise for a lot of people, especially because the PC version focused so heavily on the history of Porsche and the details of the cars. It's definitely more for diehard Porsche fans who want to geek out over the cars than for people who just want to pick it up and start racing.
@@rars0n Even if they started with being a driving simulator, the simulation was very unpolished in the first game since your car can do a flip in mid air even at low speed, the handling was very unrealistic and the AI could take turns fast without problems unlike you. NFS was reached its peak with arcade racing.
@@rars0n At least talking about the PS1 version (i didnt played the PC version yet), when you crash even at low speed you do a flip in mid air (or you oversteer a lot), and try to do a single race with all of the AI opponents using your car. When you want to do sharp turns, it seems that the AI didnt need to brake, contrary to you.
I honestly enjoy both versions a lot. I would say the PC version is probably superior overall, but here is what I prefer about each version: PS1: - Much better evolution mode - Far superior soundtrack - Changeable weather/night conditions on tracks - Tracks based not only in Europe PC: - Better single player mode (knockout, traffic etc.) - Far superior factory driver mode - Better graphics - Simulation and more realistic driving
PC wins by a mile. I’m a big fan of the PS1, but by the time this game was released, there was a lot of graphics card competition in the 90’s, so PC games looked much better than console games due to the war between nVidia and ATi.
hashbeen 1985 Oh yeah, it definitely looked great for a PS1 game. Developers were able to pull some incredible graphics out of the PS1 in its later years, despite its hardware disadvantage. So many great titles on the PS1.
Two great and different games! I still don't know which I like the most... Back then my friend had a pc version and I had ps1 ver. We played the hell out of 'em. Pc version is more realistic and have tuning. While console version is more arcade and have it's own charm. So two versions was definitely a big win for me))) I still like to play these games and using emulator for ps1 version.
Não é porque eu tenho esse jogo no ps1, mas olhando esse vídeo da pra notar que suas observações estão certas ; eu também prefiro a versão ps1,parabéns pelo vídeo, like 👍.
Man, back then PC games felt like they came from another goddamn planet. The PC version looks like what Gamecube or Xbox racing games would look like in a few years.
Prefiro a de ps1, mesmo que seja toda serrilhada, o que achei melhor foram as cores, o ângulo em que a gente vê o carro e o level design que parece mais vivo.
I'm seeing 1 difference.. the intro on the start on PS1 was just aiming for a 60 frames. and for the PC seems to aim for a different frame rate on the intro.
I used to own NFS3, Road Challenge and this for PS1. They're all really good games and look FAR better on a CRT. It looks much worse than it is here on YT. Ultimately, visuals aside, the PS1 version looks like it's more fun to play! The PC version looks to be a bit of a chore, comparatively...
it looks like a chore because OP was using stock cars. Fully tricked out, you can reach 200+ mph with s-tier cars on some tracks and the cars handle WAY better. The game is basically abandonware at this point, so if you can find it and get it to work on your hardware, I heavily recommend it.
Acho NFSP do PC o terceiro melhor NFS. Fica atrás só do Hot Pursuit 2 pra PS2 e do Underground 2 (que acho esses dois duas propostas muito diferentes, mas ambos no mesmo patamar). O Porsche do PS1 era lixo pro meu gosto. Física de carrinho de brinquedo, enquanto o do PC tinha uma inércia realista, melhor conexão entre carro/pista e mais alguns detalhes de comportamento que não o faziam ser um simulador, mas colocava num meio termo (simcade) muito prazeroso. E só ter Porsches era uma virtude, uma vez que é pra muitos a marca de esportivos mais emblemática que existe. Mas nenhum NFS é realmente um jogo realmente top pois sempre existiu algum mais ou menos na mesma proposta que era melhor. Acho que só o NFS original pra 3DO (que é a pior versão dele, mas foi a primeira e única por algum tempo) chegou a realmente ser um jogo especial justamente pq a gente em casa tava acostumado a jogar Mega e SNES (muitos ainda no Nintendinho e Master) e dai aparece algo com aqueles gráficos, cenários lindos e vários carrões de modelos reais... foi um desbunde... nem nos PCs tinha algo como aquilo, só nos arcades e com ressalvas ainda.
Vídeo de comparação é sempre assim uma galera acha uma coisa outra acha outra , o importante é o engajamento deste que não ofenda ninguém. Aqui eu vi 7 propagandas inteira - 2 Da gramatica em Ingles - 1 de um celular que esqueci a marca , uma de uma mulher na chuva 2 da vivo fibra otica e de um coixão kk. Do pc parece do N64 sem neblina e sem quedas de fps um Quase Dreamcast kk
NFS ps1 edition it is not that arcade, try it, it is the best ps1 racing game ever, money systen, special events, garage, vehicles from three different eras, car tester storymode, multiplayer game modes like chase, police Chase, capture flag, free roam, unlockable content, lots of different cars, car tuning(suspensión, brake balance, gear ratio) aged cars (when you go to a recent era) are more expensive, custom Plate, up to 4 players multiplayer, real era videos, really good soundtrack, a few tricks on some tracks, tracks themed on real world locations, manual gears if you want, i love this game and the graphics are really good
Me identifico com esses "muitos", NFS5 (Porsche) para PC foi o primeiro jogo de corrida com nuances de simulação que joguei (tinha até função de pisca-alerta) e segue, junto com o primeiro NFS, no posto de melhores da série para mim. Já a versão do PSX mais parece que pegaram NFS4 e só mudaram os carros e as pistas. Definitivamente não é o mesmo jogo.
Also EA managed to get a 16-year exclusivity deal with Porsche back then, which meant Porsche cars could ONLY appear in EA games*, Porsche probably got what they thought was a decent chunk of money for the deal, but I bet they regretted it, after a lot of other games came out paying to licence other car brands for probably a lot more money, that's why in games like Gran Turismo etc, you got RUF cars instead of Porsche cars. *Unless a company worked out a deal with EA to be a sublicencer
"Actually, i'm trying to understand why PC NFS Porsche is considered by many to be the best NFS" When I first played the game age 15 or so I thought what is this for crap, such a slow car!? But slowly and surely things fell on it's place and I began to appreciate the handling and characterization of the car. Alongside the surroundings. When I later looked back at the previous game; Need For Speed High Stakes I thought what a difference. One of night and day. But I loved them both. High Stakes for it's entertaining arcade racing and ofcourse synth-like music and Porsche Unleashed for it's adventure through Porsche, which I fell in love with, and the feel of the car floating through the magnificent tracks. Porsche I started collecting die-cast cars for and the tracks triggered me to spend my vacations on :-)
these are absolutely two different games
Porsche Unleashed on PS1 actually came before it's PC counterpart, simular to how it was with NFS 3, and strangly The Need For Speed on the 3DO, with NFS2 being (I think second on PS1)
@@bhatrhalkno8290 Handling is quite challenging with decent suspension. It's by Eden Studios who made V-Rally. It's not amazing but fairly enjoyable.
@@volkte37 I knew it! I was getting mad V-rally vibes off the PS1 version
@@St_Rizla It look like PC version and PS1 version are not equal. I thinks person who finished both version - finish two games.
@@St_Rizla yeah it's the way the car turns with the camera, very V-Rally.
It's a good one, overall. It's visually much smoother than NFS 3 and 4 which can be very choppy at times.
Pc was very realistic for its time. Especially playing with cockpit view, felt very real back then
Yeah.PC version always wondered me at that time.Graphic looks like real movie on replay scenes.
Not only did it look great but it seemed to run well on low end PCs.
if the PC version had the open cities with different paths in one map, the cop chases and all the music from the PS 1 specially to differentiate the campaign era you where currently, then the pc version would have been perfect
The driving skills I leaned on that "game" translated to real world driving skills. The physics were state of the art for that late 90's masterpiece.
@@Elinzar The PC version is more about the history of Porsche and the details of the cars than the racing action. I spent about as much time examining the cars in the garage and reading the historical information as I did driving in that game. The point for me wasn't necessarily to win the race but to enjoy driving the various Porsche models through the countryside and explore the aspects of each unique car.
I think one of the reasons I like this game so much is precisely because of the fact that it's not just a standard arcade-oriented lap racer. It's very much a game designed to simulate a real experience.
"Actually, i'm trying to understand why PC NFS Porsche is considered by many to be the best NFS"
I'll tell you why. That version in despite to lack some content from the PS1 version has the best driving physics of all the franchise. The handling of every car (at least on the PC version) is not near of realistic but still is perfect balanced between the arcade and the real life, not so hard to master for a casual player but still a challenge for a sim driver. The presentation of the game offers only the neccesary to take a car and take a spin, it has beautiful landscapes, an oustanding soundtrack and all the love that EA (in a time when cared about the player and the consumer) put on a game to pay tribute to Porsche. One youtuber said: NFS Porsche is one of the few games based on actually historical racing (along with GP Legends and GT Legends), and I'm agree with that
You've named my favourite racing games, along with MSR/PGR saga, maybe the spiritual successors to first NFS games.
the tracks were also blowmind
You are an idiot.... Best nfs insanely crappy
There's also Rally Trophy (2001) on the PC which used older car models from long before the game was released, right?
@@SeedKnightSiefer Respect differents opinions.
The pc version is nostalgic for me. I feel in love with Porsche’s because of this game. Porsche boosted its sales 25 year before they even made the cars with this game LOL

The cc comentary was durprisingly in depth, I learnt a lot, thanks!
Loved your reasons for making comparison videos too.
This game is the main reason why I started loving PORSCHE'S. The games are completely different in their platforms, but the way they have carried out the concept is quite similar !!! My first experience of NFS PORSCHE came in my PS1 and then the PC Version. Still pains me the fact that my father sold my PS1 without telling me... That intro video is the BEST EVER in the NFS Series in my view. And that intro of 959 with the police siren is complete epicness !!!
What I liked most about this NFS (I played the PC version) are the two "career" modes.
And the challenging damage system. You drive over a street lamp or bump into an opponent and your car gets harder to control or becomes a complete mess. Unlike in later games where you could destroy the whole city and only barely got temporarly scratches on the paint - if any.
it's simple...
pc version = simulator
ps1 version = arcade
both are fun and nice at the time
Fair enough
No, you don't right
PC version wasn't a simulator at all, but it was way more realistic than it's ps1 counterpart that leaned more towards the arcade, to be fair.
I was about to comment the same thing
@@Helsvga You've misinterpreted the term "arcade". It means "for fun" or "for amusement", whereas Simulator actually means "software, which simulates reality". Kapish?
Back when it came out after playing it on PC first then on PS one I just asked myself "Is this even same game?" Nope just same name
same. My pc was to bad to really play the pc version i bought, so i rented the psx version and i was like wtf? Even compared to my unplayable PC version it was bad.
I loved this game on PC!
I hate thus game on pc and ps1
Soundtrack in both PS1 and PC was pretty much the same. Few tracks didn’t appear on PC but they wouldn’t fit the PC theme and at the same time they were great pick for PS1 styled game
Interestingly enough, the GBA port seems to be patterned after the PC version in terms of Point-to-point racing. Its also crazy that they got a fully 3D Polygonal racing game to run that smoothly on the GBA. Its quite impressive for a 2001 handheld system. EA used to have talented people working for them.
Some GBA games were great like this, Driv3r was another one.
@@aussieknucklesV-Rally 3 instantly comes to mind
PSX version's got the same engine as V-Rally.

Faço parte da parcela de fãs da era clássica dos NFS que considera o Porsche Unleashed de PC o melhor já feito. Jogo extremamente completo e bem feito. Divertido de jogar até hoje. Pena ser tão difícil conseguir fazer ele rodar em hardwares atuais.
Eu sei gostar das comparações viu? Acho todas bem sensatas e a qualidade dos vídeos é impecável!! Esse foi um NFS que não joguei, mas só de olhar eu iria preferir a do PSX mesmo, por conta da jogabilidade que pra mim é vital em um jogo de corrida de automóvel.
Parabéns continue o ótimo trabalho!
loved the pc version great graphics for the time also don't forget NFS high-stakes
@FGGG Bits One of the best NFS with real damage system....
Porsche Unleashed (PC) has a super fun driving physics! That's one of the reasons I love it so much. I don't really car about the brand that much. But physics, levels,very different cars from different eras from the Porsche brand. That's so cool.
@@fahmi_simin639 Wait what? The music in porsche unleashed's PC port is fantastic, how the hell did they not care about them?
@@fahmi_simin639 yeah, but for the most part, the race oats were inferior and less fun to listen to
@@fahmi_simin639 so... The pc version of nfs porsche is also known as a nfs game with the best handling physics. That's why i so much love pc version. But I understand you... If I started playing the ps1 version i will also say that the ps1 version is better.
@@gulas_s_houskovym_knedlikem The best handling on the series? Only because is realistic doesnt mean is better. Previous games in the series where arcade, with the perfection in controls made with NFS3 and 4 that give you complete control over your car (in the PC release at least). Porsche Unleashed controls is stiff at best and sometimes if you dont upgrade specific cars, at worst is very frustrating.
@@sebastiankulche Try to drift and it will become very hard and realistic. As you are right that NFS Porsche and PS1 really have a very good soundtrack. However, the thing I loved very much about the PC version before was, firstly, the difficulty and secondly the realism of the cars (for example, the cars tilted and when you drove terribly fast with an older car, most of the car overturned and the race was actually "over")
I have played only the older nfs games like NFS 1, 2, 3 Hot Pursuit, 4 High Stakes and NFS Porsche of course. I have actually enjoyed the factory driver game mode. So just please try to play the pc version factory driver for a while and you will see thats its actually good (not awesome)
É o NFS que mais joguei antes do primeiro Most Wanted. Jogava o de PC, e por vezes ficava monótono, principalmente no início com os primeiros Porsches.
PS1 version.... My childhood, one of my favourites
@@fahmi_simin639 pc graphics is way ahead of time I don't get it why it dosent have those music
I like it the most of all NFS games too (PC). Mainly because I think it´s the only really "grown up" game in the franchise. And there´s some nostalgia indeed. Let me give you my reasons:
1) Atmosphere of the menu - awesome garage, auctions to make money, historic videos, great music.
2) Tuning options - back then, almost no games had possibility to tune your car this way - sway bars, shocks, fibreglass bodies, it´s all just lovely and noticeable in game.
3) Love the Porsche cars, but really, graphics are so bad and even the sound is nothing like the real car, so not sure if this is the real reason.
4) Great tracks both audio and race ones, Cote d´Azur, Schwarzwald, Monte Carlo, Zone Industrielle and Alps are just unforgettable :)
5) Drive feel - I know it´s a bit sluggish, but I really think it´s the way developers wanted it to be to feel real. Questionable choice indeed, but your irl car won´t make a 90° turn doing 130mph even if it´s a Porsche too.
6) Fixed camera - your camera won´t move further away with speed and closer while braking, this is soo huge for me that I don´t even play most modern race games because of this.
7) Played it as a kid with my father and we all know these are the best games when we grow up.
PS: Fuck Dylan
Psx version's Evolution mode is the best career mode in history. Just beautiful and fun.
I agree. While I love the PC version, I can't deny I got far more enjoyment out of the PS1 version's evolution mode - which was ahead of its time!
Also the soundtrack is better on the PS1. They are different games tbh
@@Fogwell94 Yes that I can absolutely agree with. The PC version does not really have a good selection to be honest. The PS1 version has some awesome techno mixed with other genres as well.
@@Fogwell94 Soundtrack on psx version is just beautiful. I have it in mp3.
@@UnTipoDelEste especially the "R I ready" track is so good
Sometimes when I play GT games I wish they released a version that explored one particular car brand as deeply as EA did with NFSPU.
I remember owning a copy for my Windows 98. When people first saw this including Need For Speed High Stakes on the PC version, everyone nearly vomit and flew off their chairs from what they saw what the PC version could do!
Quick Fun Fact: This game was ported to 3 platforms. PC, PlayStation, & Game Boy Advance, believe it or not.
That GBA port is impressive as hell, when you consider the hardware.
@@SomeOrangeCat Yeah, I can't agree with you more. The Game Boy Advance was one hell of a powerful little handheld.
Porsche Unleashed on PC was one of the first games I played in my life and it planted a Porsche seed in my brain that has made me into the huge Porsche fan that I am today. I came to know some years back that the PS1 version was vastly different and why the PC version is hailed as one of the best ever made is the historical data on Porsches, the game design and most of all, the 4-point physics. This is one of a handful of times when a PC game, and the only NFS game, came close to replicating a real car's handling. The way the cars handle, brake, shift weight, power slide, spin out etc. in the PC version is 95% accurate to how they handle in real life. That's the main thing that sells the game for me, and something that no other NFS ever managed to do again.
The PS1 on the other hand, I've come to appreciate that it's also an incredibly well made game with lots of attention to detail (first NFS to have flame spitting exhaust!), much closer in spirit to older games like Hot Pursuit 1998 and High Stakes, but where it falls behind is in the car handling department. Usually PS games have superior handling physics compared to PC, but apparently not with this one. Still a great game though, and one I'd love to play, if (and when) only I could acquire a PS1. Thanks for the video though! That was a good one!
People that think that this NFS is the best one must love Porsche cars a lot. I personally quite like them but it's not really the best NFS ever, but amongst the best imo. The thing I like the most about this game is the historic career mode that allows you to purchase Porsche cars from earlier to later eras and the ability to purchase car modications and tuning.
eu amo seu canal e ja a acompanho faz muitos tempo .... quem diz q nao vale a pena comparar jogos antigos é por que nao sabe dar valor a um jogo e sim só a gráficos... eu jogo até hj atari, por que isso me diverte igual a jogar ps4... comparar os jogos é importante para quem gosta de detalhes... eu fiquei super surpreso em saber que o luigi da versão super mario all star + super mario wolrd é totalmente diferente do cartucho super mario world .... e isso é legal pra caramba por que faz parte da historia do VG.
grande abraço e continue com seu belissimo trabalho !
Joguei as duas versões, mas muito mais no PC, acho que o NFS Porsche e muito querido pois tem um modo carreira que passeia pela historia, vindo desde a decada de 50 ate os tempos modernos com muitas fotos, videos, musicas e ambientes trazidos de cada época, como por exemplo o circuito de Mônaco, que é Cote D'azur, voce ve a evolução do circuito com o passar dos anos, tanto do traçado, quanto da estética!
Se fosse lancado pra pc's atuais, certamente compraria!!!!!
The PC looks like Dreamcast graphics.
exatamente kk
I'd say that it looks more like a N64 game.
Dreamcast had better looking racing games back then, especially looking at the textures and effects.
Not 100% sure about polycount, as the console had some severe bottlenecks, hence fog being used so heavily to mask draw distance.
@@dffagundo imo certain Dreamcast racers look as good as ps2, while others look more like this.
I haven't seen n64 quite to this caliber.
Even ps1 gt2 was more detailed than anything n64. Ps1 is just very pixelated, but its also sharp and detailed while n64 is much smoother yet kinda blurred and chunky. Hard to explain.. I've played some great n64 racers tho so I don't want to knock it, just my opinion.
@@dffagundo Maybe you are used to nowadays racing games, but I played NFS Porsche on PC back in the day and N64 was by no means close to PC graphics. MSR on Dreamcast it's a closer comparison.
More like Gran Turismo 2 on an emulator
Almost looks like a completely new game
Functionally they are.
Its feel like yesterday they make this game
@@fahmi_simin639 The music for the PC version is great too. Listen to the PC soundtrack.
@@fahmi_simin639 classic era Porsche centre music is so nostalgic
Cara de onde vc tirou que a versão do PS1 é mais realista? Eu tbm gostei mais da versão do PS1 mas não precisa forçar a barra tbm né
Ah yes, back when EA still put out quality games. These are both quite good, and different enough that you could own both, without feeling like you bought the same game twice. I do prefer the PC version's point-to-point races though, as it offered up something different than tracks and laps. To answer your question about which NFS I like best? Hot Pursuit! Outrunning the cops was such a thrill.
Hot pursuit was the first NFS game I've ever played and it was great trying to run from the police.
@@robertkemp5362 Its one of the first PlayStation games I actually got to really sit down and try. Before that I'd only got to play demo kiosks and the like.
Although the PC version is superior I find the Playstation version more impressive considering the MASSIVE difference in power between the two hardware wise.
At the time though PC's were quite shit
@@JB_inks Yours mighta been. Mine was tricked out.
I mean, it's the PS1. It has to have credit for having beefed up ports of games that are also on more powerful systems.
freeroam in ps1 version is itched into my childhood memories
I played the PC version years ago. Had no idea the PS1 version was so different. I liked the menu music on the PC much better. Also preferred the less glossy finish on all the cars.
I think what made Porsche Unleashed so great was it's handling and driving. It wasn't arcade-like at all. You could see how much slower the surroundings were zooming bye as opposed to the PS1 version, but yet you still felt like you were driving fast. You had to be very careful driving because you had to spend money to repair your car after each race. That and the handling was so much more grounded than other games. You really felt in complete control of the car which you needed to be since you had to be more careful. It really felt like a challenge to win, but not in an artificial way.
And the textures. So much richness and on such an old title.
I like the pc version because of its tracks, looked very real back then...
Ahh memories...
I prefer the PS1 version despite the windows version having better graphic because I grew up with the PS1 version and had a lot of fun playing it. Oh the memories :)
The reason a lot of people thing NFS:Porsche 2000 was the best in the NFS franchise, is probably because it was one of the only 2 NFS games that were more simulation than arcade(at least on the PC version), the other one being the original NFS for MS-DOS/3DO. I remember being at my friends house playing the Demo of NFS II on his Windows 95 PC and hating it. Not that I think NFS II is a bad game, just that I was hoping for something more like NFS 1, whereas NFS II turned out to be a pure Arcade racer.
conteúdo top, eu lembro quando tive meu primeiro pc e fui jogar o NFS Porsche,
era beeem diferente do PS1 e fiquei frustrado na época, mas nem me passava pela cabeça
que não eram o "mesmo game"
Man, the pc version was my childhood
It was one of the first games I've ever played, when i was 5/6 years old
I remember playing it on my dad's notebook, even not understanding not even a bit of english
I miss those times where i used to play carbon, underground, most wanted, porsche unleashed...
I am 100% agree with you, NFS III: Hot Pursuit is the best. My all time favourite racing game. Also yeah this game is better on PS1.
*Tu deve tá meio doido de achar que a versão de Play 1 eh melhor e teve + dedicação por parte da EA mas provavelmente deve ser por causa da nostalgia de quando vc jogou na época.*
*Eu joguei muito esse NFS no PC, era viciado, lindo, divertido d+, desafiante, as pistas são inesquecíveis, trilha sonora incrível e um detalhe que vc não mencionou eh que a versão de PC era toda em português do Brasil.*
*Jogo lendário!* 😍
To me Need For Speed Porsche is the best Need For Speed because of the love it was given by developers
When it came out the graphics looked awesome, realistic and maps were detailed aswell and they did vary. If you compared this with High Stakes then it is easy to notice giant leap forward in terms of aforementioned graphics but also physics and number of vehicles available in the game
Sure the game teased us with 100+ models while in reality it was exactly the same model with different badges (like 356 1100/1300/1500 etc) but those were the details that I appreciate up to this day. Nowadays in modern games we get one model of specific car even if it had few versions
Physics as already said - different cars behaved differently and on different track. You had to know how to use the throttle and brake (incl handbrake)
Porsche had the best racing modes. While it wasn’t focused on a story or plot like Most Wanted or Carbon it presented us with Evolution mode and Factory Driver. Both were difficult especially for a kid of an age of 6-7 who wasn’t aware of vehicle tuning in this game. I remember being stuck at the 914 trophy when I was finishing 4th at best because of lack of tuning knowledge. When I found out about it and when I progressed further in the tournaments - better feeling than an orgasm
You can’t really hate on this release of franchise. From my experience there are two types of people when it comes to NFS5
1. Those who played it and love it
2. Those who didn’t play it and they should. I envy those who didn’t play it and if they ever decide to give it a try - it will be their first time!
3) Those who played it and never wanted to touch it again.
First time I played Porsche Unleashed on PC in 2000 on my first home PC, I was 12 years old and had one or two years PC gaming experience. Porsche Unleashed was second NFS game (after high stakes) which I played. It was early and therefore strong feelings. For this reason I think Porsche Unleashed my favourite NFS game. Possible it was imprint in psychological terms.
Apesar da versão do PC ter um grafico bem superior(pois nessa epoca as placas de video da antiga 3DFX ja conseguiam resultados muito bons) a versão do PS1 tem graficos bem dencentes se comparado aos classicos Gran Turismo 2, Driver, Test Drive 6, e o Proprio NFS 4. Esse jogo e bem aclamado principalmente pelo modo Carrera/Historia onde vc começa no passado comprando os primeiros modelos porsche e vai evoluindo de epoca(Estilo Age of empires :P) ate poder comprar os carros mais modernos, e bem interessante mesmo. Não sou um fan da porsche mas admito que esse jogo prendeu minha atenção exatamento por esse extra.
Back in late 90s or early 2000s it was huge difference playing on console and PC. 😎 PC was totally different quality! Now the quality between PS5 and strong PC is marginal...
The 996 Turbo was WAY ahead of its time. May be a 99-2000 car, but good god it looks so stylish you'd think it's from 2010 at least.
Newer pcs need a patch for nfs5 which this doesnt have. The details of the cars would look cleaner
the 2GHz CPU patch, there are other PC games that have this problem i think.
it's when the CPU is running over 2GHz and the games textures break on some older directX or 3dfx games. (for those who don't know what this is, now you know)
@SilverX95 I didn't give a great explanation haha. Just a quick overview. It does look alot better with the patch especially in races. Still play this occasionally on pc.
This game was way ahead of its time.e..
Eu acho muito legal fazer comparações. Meus parabéns por esse ótimo trabalho.
Excelente video meu caro, parabéns!
And the tracks sometimes feel like the car chase scenes from french Fantomas movies. :D
Of all NFS games up to the first NFS Most Wanted, this was one easily the one I played the least. I am talking about PC. While I like Porsche cars and usually play them quite a lot in every racing game it has them, something about this game put me off. After almost 20 years I still can't pinpoint what it was.
Thank you for a very nice video. Good job.
Primeira vez jogando NFS foi nesse, mas não lembrava de nada afinal ja fazia muito tempo. Vim rejogar depois de grande e cara que jogo bom, as paisagens das pistas dão sua sensação de estar fazendo um Grand Tour, jogabilidade um pouco puxada pra simulação deixa um ar realista gostoso de se jogar. Uma obra de arte em um jogo histórico
The PC version might have graphics, semi-realistic handling and mods. But the PS1 just has a certain character to it that makes it more of what I'm looking for in a Need For Speed game. Arcade physics with realistic cars while celebrating Porsche's history at the same time. If I want realism in the late 90s early 2000s it's either Gran Turismo or GP Legends not Need For Speed.
I think it had the right amount of realism. It shared engine with High Stakes on PS1 (it's weird that NFS Porsche on PS1 did not), so it's a true classic NFS, and I see a lot of character: you can really tell the differences between models and feel the evolution generation by generation, while keeping the same Porsche DNA, which is perfect for a game based on a single brand like Porsche.
@@Jesus_Hill It is the same engine but the handling is different. You are more in control of the cars in NFS Porsche Unleashed.
@@Jesus_Hill Maybe because the engine is absolutely terrible to begin with it, at least on a gameplay perspective compared to PC.
I wish they combined elements of both into ultimate PC version - there is lack of cars in PC version, mainly 959, 917 LM and some of the special GT versions, also the PS version had better music changing each era - despite that, I managed to get this running on WIN10 and the game is still rewarding with an OK handling model, maybe more tracks could have been added (for example using the test track from factory driver), sure game from 2000 had limitations
So the PS1 has more cars than the PC version? Strange
@@ntl9974 never checked the actual count, which I believe is not important, just the epic classics missing in PC version is what struck me, I mean 917 and 959 are the most epic of Porsche classics
The worst part about PC version was the handling
It's ok to be wrong
This is known as a skill issue.
Nunca tinha visto a versão do PC, parece melhor por conta dos gráficos mas a jogabilidade da versão do PlayStation 1 é sensacional, joguei muito esse jogo foi um dos games de corrida que mais joguei, realmente é muito bom. E sou fã de Porsche mas não é unanime que seja o melhor da franquia pois os outros também são muito bons.
Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho!
This one's a bit unfair because 95% of gamers didn't use a GPU with such capabilities. Most played it in 640x480 without any enhancements.
I had a Voodoo2 SLI setup. It was a beast of a system. It was my graphics workstation and my gaming rig.
NFS3, NFS5 PU and NFSU are my most favorite in the series. Sadly after NFSU EA got stuck in the boring rehashing of the same idea or trying too hard to add "story" to a racing game that doesn't need one, even NFS HP from 2010 was just Burnout with cops.
still playing on my PIII, great game
The factory Driver Mode was the best for me
For a PSX game, looks very impressive.
Porsche Unleashed on PC was more of a driving simulator than a racing game. It focused on accurately recreating the experience of driving a Porsche and covering the entire history of the company and its cars. Rather than doing laps on tracks, you drive from point A to point B as fast as possible and the point of it is to enjoy the car as much as to win the race.
I always felt like I was in the minority by liking Porsche Unleashed more than other NFS games, primarily because NFS dropped all of its driving simulator aspirations after the first game in the series, and it's understandable that lots of people find more enjoyment in arcade racing games than driving simulators. The handling is more deliberate and realistic in Porsche Unleashed than most NFS games, which can make it feel slower, but it seems like a much more accurate representation of the real cars.
This game is really for diehard Porsche fans. I spent almost as much time looking at the car models in the garage, opening doors, examining interior details, etc, as I did actually playing the game. The care that went into every little detail is obvious. The Playstation version on the other hand looks like a reworked version of the previous NFS game with the Porsche licensing slapped on. I'm not saying that it's necessarily a bad game, but it kind of defeats the purpose of using the Porsche license, because it's essentially now just a standard NFS game limited to nothing but Porsches, which I think is probably not what the average NFS fan wants.
Maybe Porsche Unleashed should have been released under a different title. It definitely sticks out in the NFS catalog with its focus on realism and a single marque. I would also have to assume that the Porsche focus and simulator aspect probably resulted in this game having fewer sales than a lot of NFS entries.
There is something magical about old school racers
NFS Porsche, Shift and Shift 2 are the only Need for Speeds that have somewhat realistic physics (handling) and were more toward a simulator than an arcade racer like the rest of the NFS games (other NFS games are pure arcade and unrealistic). I didn't like NFS Shifts because of their before apex understeer to after apex oversteer thing and I prefer the physics of NFS Porsche. Beside that, it' unique and real story-history, the showroom, progressing through the time and... all of that good stuff was awesome and in fact I've played some one-make racing games (World Racing, SCAR, Corvette, Ford Racing) and I really liked them.
NFS Porsche was my first exposure to a (semi) simulator and I played it with a keyboard back then. I like to play it again but it's graphics, specially the resolution of gauge textures in cockpit view is extremely low and outdated now.
NFS Porsche is the only NFS that if they make a remastered version of it with just a little better graphics I'll buy it in a heartbeat to play it with my wheel and I'm sure I'll have a lot of fun.
How do you Have all Porsche Cars in Single Player like MulitiPlayer?
caramba
joguei muito pra ps1
nostalgico!
parabens pelo video
Sem sombra de dúvidas, prefiro do ps1. Já joguei os dois, tanto no pc quanto ps1. O do ps1 os gráficos são bem antigos, mas para a época até eram bem legais pro ps1. O ambos possuem um modo Evolution: O principal modo. mas aí acaba a diferença, a versão do ps1 modo tem mais originalidade, pois cada fase: Classic era (anos 50 e 60), Golden Era (70 a 80), até a Modern era (90 a 2000), possuí menus e música com o tema de cada era, deixando o jogo interessante, na versão pc isso não existe. E sem falar na jogabilidade muito estradanha do pc: parece que você está dirigindo um sabonete e as vezes dá sensação que o carro flutua e não está encostando no chão kkkkkkkkk . E a versão do ps1 é muito legal, pois você sente a jogabilidade de cada carro escolhido e sem falar do dual shock que foi muito bem usado nesse jogo. Pois cada derrapada o dual shock funciona conforme a intensidade da mesma, batidas também etc.
Anécdota. Mi amigo tenía en su local de video juegos la versión de play1 fanático de Sony . Un día lo invite a mi casa a jugar la versión PC. El tipo cerraba antes el local y me llamaba para decirme si podía venir a jugar.. Jajajaj. Después de un tiempo ; obvio se compró su PC. Respecto a la comparación; bueno existía un abismo entre play y pc. Mas allá de las diferencias técnicas lo que más rescato es las sensaciones detrás del volante (conducción) Era un paso adelante acertado entre árcade y simulación. Que decir de los encuentros vía Internet. La personalización de tus autos a través de miniprogramas. Un clásico instantáneo.
É a única fabricante automotiva no mundo que merece ter um jogo só pra ela! A Porsche tem algo que as outras não tem, TRADIÇÃO e que é visto em todos os seus carros, todos os carros tem identidade com a marca. Tal coisa que não vejo em outros marcas. Apesar de ser muito fã da Porsche, não é meu jogo preferido da franquia, mas merece todo o respeito daqueles que gostam de automobilismo!
Recuerdo como si fuera ayer, pasar de juegar este juego en un pentium II, con un voodoo banshee 16mb, monitor de 14' ya con el brillo bastante bajo por el pasar del tiempo, a jugarlo en un Pentium III, con un monitor de 17 viewsonic, una TNT2, sonido sound blaster live! con los parlantes creative soundworks 4.1, con un gamepad analogo microsoft sidewinder game pad pro. Me quedo en la lista de pendientes comprar un volante, para este, y otros tantos juegos. Que manera de disfrutarlo, jugaba las mismas carreras una y otra vez, era un placer jugarlo.

Except intro- those two games are totally different!
Not only that, the intro is running smoothly in the PS1 version than it is on PC
I have played both versions and both have their positives and negatives. Like the physics(PC) or the freeroam(ps1). I remember these games had cops and the ps1 cops were crazy.
*semi-freeroam.
Weird, why does the pre-rendered video at the start have higher framerate on PS1? Never noticed that before.
It would be awesome to see a remake with all of the tracks from both versions! But that's very unlikely.
They should make it better, these tracks are generic, and there are so many cool Porsches you could put in the game
@@ntl9974 There is potential to have more varied Porsche cars instead of duplicates with minor differences. If someone were to make a remake, they should separate the car categories into four factions: Classic era, Golden era, Silver era (The original modern era) and the Modern era (A new modern era with the more current line-up of Porsche vehicles).
I played the two versions back in those days and the PS1 is by far my favorite just for the evolution mode. In the PS1 you had free roaming test drive, every location was open world and every track were different layouts like in NFS U2, also the locations change depending on the era. The PC version had amazing graphics, but the career mode was not that interesting and the gameplay was not that great imo (I know it's more a simulator but this is Need for Speed: an arcade racing franchisee).
Need For Speed actually started out as a driving simulator. So to me, this is more keeping with the spirit of the original game. But yeah, by the time this came out it had already shifted clearly towards arcade racing. I think that made it a bit of an odd entry to the franchise for a lot of people, especially because the PC version focused so heavily on the history of Porsche and the details of the cars. It's definitely more for diehard Porsche fans who want to geek out over the cars than for people who just want to pick it up and start racing.
@@rars0n Even if they started with being a driving simulator, the simulation was very unpolished in the first game since your car can do a flip in mid air even at low speed, the handling was very unrealistic and the AI could take turns fast without problems unlike you. NFS was reached its peak with arcade racing.
I also prefer the PS1 version, and not only because you said, but also because the controls feels much better.
@@sebastiankulche You are thinking of NFS2. There was no flipping in the original game. Likewise with the handling and AI issues you mentioned.
@@rars0n At least talking about the PS1 version (i didnt played the PC version yet), when you crash even at low speed you do a flip in mid air (or you oversteer a lot), and try to do a single race with all of the AI opponents using your car. When you want to do sharp turns, it seems that the AI didnt need to brake, contrary to you.
I honestly enjoy both versions a lot. I would say the PC version is probably superior overall, but here is what I prefer about each version:
PS1:
- Much better evolution mode
- Far superior soundtrack
- Changeable weather/night conditions on tracks
- Tracks based not only in Europe
PC:
- Better single player mode (knockout, traffic etc.)
- Far superior factory driver mode
- Better graphics
- Simulation and more realistic driving
PC wins by a mile. I’m a big fan of the PS1, but by the time this game was released, there was a lot of graphics card competition in the 90’s, so PC games looked much better than console games due to the war between nVidia and ATi.
hashbeen 1985 Oh yeah, it definitely looked great for a PS1 game. Developers were able to pull some incredible graphics out of the PS1 in its later years, despite its hardware disadvantage. So many great titles on the PS1.
Two great and different games! I still don't know which I like the most... Back then my friend had a pc version and I had ps1 ver. We played the hell out of 'em. Pc version is more realistic and have tuning. While console version is more arcade and have it's own charm. So two versions was definitely a big win for me))) I still like to play these games and using emulator for ps1 version.
Wow, I played the PC version of this game so much back in the day. I never knew there was a crappy PS1 version though!
The pc version is crappy. I owned the PS1 version as a kid. Never knew there was a crappy pc version though.
@@blackgreece2702 i see what you did there. You have ruffled the PC master race.. is that what you wanted??
@@rainey06au Fućk yo master race! I'm a PlayStation Rebel!
@@blackgreece2702 screw ur 10fps framerate lol

Não é porque eu tenho esse jogo no ps1, mas olhando esse vídeo da pra notar que suas observações estão certas ; eu também prefiro a versão ps1,parabéns pelo vídeo, like 👍.
I want ps5 version...
ps: como vc conseguiu rodar a versão pc hj em dia ?
Man, back then PC games felt like they came from another goddamn planet. The PC version looks like what Gamecube or Xbox racing games would look like in a few years.
Prefiro a de ps1, mesmo que seja toda serrilhada, o que achei melhor foram as cores, o ângulo em que a gente vê o carro e o level design que parece mais vivo.
Lembro quando saiu essa versão para PC. Me impressionou muito na época. Pensei, agora o PC superou o dreamcast.
I'm seeing 1 difference.. the intro on the start on PS1 was just aiming for a 60 frames.
and for the PC seems to aim for a different frame rate on the intro.
The PS1 intro was in 30fps, and the PC version had to reduce it for better quality.
I used to own NFS3, Road Challenge and this for PS1. They're all really good games and look FAR better on a CRT. It looks much worse than it is here on YT. Ultimately, visuals aside, the PS1 version looks like it's more fun to play! The PC version looks to be a bit of a chore, comparatively...
it looks like a chore because OP was using stock cars. Fully tricked out, you can reach 200+ mph with s-tier cars on some tracks and the cars handle WAY better. The game is basically abandonware at this point, so if you can find it and get it to work on your hardware, I heavily recommend it.
Acho NFSP do PC o terceiro melhor NFS. Fica atrás só do Hot Pursuit 2 pra PS2 e do Underground 2 (que acho esses dois duas propostas muito diferentes, mas ambos no mesmo patamar). O Porsche do PS1 era lixo pro meu gosto. Física de carrinho de brinquedo, enquanto o do PC tinha uma inércia realista, melhor conexão entre carro/pista e mais alguns detalhes de comportamento que não o faziam ser um simulador, mas colocava num meio termo (simcade) muito prazeroso. E só ter Porsches era uma virtude, uma vez que é pra muitos a marca de esportivos mais emblemática que existe.
Mas nenhum NFS é realmente um jogo realmente top pois sempre existiu algum mais ou menos na mesma proposta que era melhor. Acho que só o NFS original pra 3DO (que é a pior versão dele, mas foi a primeira e única por algum tempo) chegou a realmente ser um jogo especial justamente pq a gente em casa tava acostumado a jogar Mega e SNES (muitos ainda no Nintendinho e Master) e dai aparece algo com aqueles gráficos, cenários lindos e vários carrões de modelos reais... foi um desbunde... nem nos PCs tinha algo como aquilo, só nos arcades e com ressalvas ainda.
Vídeo de comparação é sempre assim uma galera acha uma coisa outra acha outra , o importante é o engajamento deste que não ofenda ninguém.
Aqui eu vi 7 propagandas inteira - 2 Da gramatica em Ingles - 1 de um celular que esqueci a marca , uma de uma mulher na chuva 2 da vivo fibra otica e de um coixão kk.
Do pc parece do N64 sem neblina e sem quedas de fps um Quase Dreamcast kk
NFS ps1 edition it is not that arcade, try it, it is the best ps1 racing game ever, money systen, special events, garage, vehicles from three different eras, car tester storymode, multiplayer game modes like chase, police Chase, capture flag, free roam, unlockable content, lots of different cars, car tuning(suspensión, brake balance, gear ratio) aged cars (when you go to a recent era) are more expensive, custom Plate, up to 4 players multiplayer, real era videos, really good soundtrack, a few tricks on some tracks, tracks themed on real world locations, manual gears if you want, i love this game and the graphics are really good
Me identifico com esses "muitos", NFS5 (Porsche) para PC foi o primeiro jogo de corrida com nuances de simulação que joguei (tinha até função de pisca-alerta) e segue, junto com o primeiro NFS, no posto de melhores da série para mim.
Já a versão do PSX mais parece que pegaram NFS4 e só mudaram os carros e as pistas. Definitivamente não é o mesmo jogo.
Also EA managed to get a 16-year exclusivity deal with Porsche back then, which meant Porsche cars could ONLY appear in EA games*, Porsche probably got what they thought was a decent chunk of money for the deal, but I bet they regretted it, after a lot of other games came out paying to licence other car brands for probably a lot more money, that's why in games like Gran Turismo etc, you got RUF cars instead of Porsche cars.
*Unless a company worked out a deal with EA to be a sublicencer
Music in pc version is awesome...
Actually this game was EA's answer for popularity of gran turismo
I liked the story mode of the PS1 version better, and the game was easier too.
"Actually, i'm trying to understand why PC NFS Porsche is considered by many to be the best NFS"
When I first played the game age 15 or so I thought what is this for crap, such a slow car!? But slowly and surely things fell on it's place and I began to appreciate the handling and characterization of the car. Alongside the surroundings. When I later looked back at the previous game; Need For Speed High Stakes I thought what a difference. One of night and day. But I loved them both. High Stakes for it's entertaining arcade racing and ofcourse synth-like music and Porsche Unleashed for it's adventure through Porsche, which I fell in love with, and the feel of the car floating through the magnificent tracks.
Porsche I started collecting die-cast cars for and the tracks triggered me to spend my vacations on :-)
If it werent for its excessive oversteer, stiff handling and unfair missions it would be a fun game.
Pc were always superior and this game is my childhood love
Faço suas, minhas palavras! Eu curti demais o NFS 3 e 4, já esse quando comprei, eu chegava a cochilar no teclado, é muito maçante e entediante!
Comparado com os outros é mesmo.
