I think it's pretty hilarious that at least half the list are all Rockstar developed games. It's not your fault: it's a very short list of developers who can even afford square footage in LA, much less developers of a skillset and calibre to actually outcompete any Rockstar game.
@Angel-Otk Thats what I meant when I said few developers can even afford square footage in LA. I'm still saying that Rockstar are also the best, though. They have unlimited development time and the largest development team in the world, alongside having basically the best technical directors in the industry that aren't Naughty Dog.
@@kailomonkey And I honestly like that all of the Rockstar games are never a 1 to 1 copy and there’s always landmarks from different locations in the real life surrounding area that are included. I hope GTA 6 is good.
The entire game just feels awful. It's not just the gravity, but even merely turning into a corner feels as if the developers have never ever played another racing game. It's so off-putting, I uninstalled the demo after ten minutes.
@@no1DdC I don't know if i have rose tinted glasses on, but i played the heck out of The Crew 1 (in fact it's pretty much the only racing game i ever enjoyed) and i don't remember it being this weird.
As a big Midnight Club fan, I loved Midnight Club 2's Los Angeles map was the most fun but it wasn't totally accurate because of the hardware limitations of the PS2. Midnight Club Los Angeles however (my favorite Midnight Club game) was insanely accurate for a PS3 and Xbox 360 game. In the behind the scenes the developers went on a trip to LA and various tourist spots and landmarks, took pictures and videos and then made it from the ground up in the game. It was truly amazing what the devs did with the game.
I Remember the first time I played and rented it when I was eight years old I was just driving around. I didn’t even realize I needed to race and do races. I think I was trying to find a house to live in or something like that and my car was damaged. I heard beeping and I thought it was an alarm timer or something.😂😂😂😂
That whole story about Rockstar devs travelling to LA to get details correct is true for many Rockstar games. They did the same for GTA 4 and GTA 5, they even spoke with real LA police, LA gangsters and other figures in LA when designing the map for GTA 5 to try and capture an identical feel to the real thing. Rockstar is definitely the company that tries the hardest to get every detail right.
Midnight Club 2 is such a nostalgic game for me, I loved everything about it especially just cruising listening to the music in one of the beginner cars. Midnight Club LA was also amazing, I used to spend HOURS designing vinyls for my cars. I can remember saving up to buy the south central DLC and loved it, especially just cruising in the Buick Riveria. I'm gutted that Rockstar have abandoned Midnight Club as it was a great series of games but I guess you can do 75% of them in GTA these days
7:56 You can smash through the middle of any of the round letters on the Vinewood Sign in GTAV. 9:35 You can pickup motorcycles with the Cargobob helicopter. Great video though!
@@AhiruSaikou good ideas for loop holes, the challenge was to smash through, not jump through, but I like the way your brain works. I thought the Cargobob magnet work in story mode, because I've only seen it work in online.
@@FoolishPedro It's the best kind of loophole cuz technically it IS still smashing through cuz you break through the support beams to do it. I should be a lawyer.
@@FoolishPedroThe cargobob has a hook in story mode and online, activated by right on the d-pad, then it can pick up a motorcycle and be brought to the top of maze bank
This is one of the most fun RUclips videos I’ve seen in a very long time. Gold star for you lad ⭐️ (also you can get a bike up the us bank tower in gta 5 with a cargobob)
Pretty fun video! though as many have suggested, GTA 5 definitely should've gotten at least a point for the ramping off the US Bank Tower challenge. Not only because of the Cargobob's hook system or the "flying bike" glitch people do, but there's an actual parachute challenge in the game which is exactly that. Called the "Bank Bailout base jump", a Skylift helicopter will fly you and a sports bike to the top of the building so you can ride it out for the jump! it's even required for 100% completion of the game.
the cargobob is not the only way to get a bike on the US BANK TOWER (maze bank in gta) you also have a parachute mission where you get spawned up the tower with a motorbike. you have to jump with the bike, then jump off and open the parachute, so not only is possible, but it's also intended on those extra mission
I love the whole concept of this video. It was really entertaining to watch. I would love to see the same kind of video, but for NYC. Maybe in the future :)
@@FoolishPedroyou can actually just use a cargo bob in story mode to do it. First get a bike/motorcycle in the back of a truck, and then you use the cargo bob to pick the truck up. A little convoluted but it’s totally doable.
Having DRIVER in here was a little unfair imo, just because it came out nearly 30 years ago, so it's not really it's fault for being incapable of most of these details.
I am surprised how well The Crew 2 did considering it's map is supposed to be the entire lower 48 states of the US not just LA. That is quite fascinating. The Crew 2 has such a nice map to drive around and observe how much detail they put into the world. I haven't had the time to explore it's sequel's map of Oahu
Imagine that the first Crew was even better. There are so many comparison videos about it on youtube. I'm hoping it will be revived soon, and we can play with it again this year
I don't usually leave comments, but I just absolutely have to... Went through the whole video, very well made and had to leave a like. Color me surprised when I see this didn't have thousands of views and likes. All the kudos! Buying the L.A. Noire DLC for 20 seconds of gameplay for this video absolutely warrants a like and subscribe. lol
U can jump thru the middle of the "D" of the vinewood sign in gta v. Also in gta v you could've used a cargo bob to take the bike onto the top of the maze bank tower.
I love how YT recommends me these videos because i live in LA County and played pretty much all the games listed here except for Driver and Italian Job. MCLA is definitely the best recreation of LA as someone whose lived here all their life, the highways and traffic especially is so well done. Imo that "LA Vibe" is also unmatched with that game but GTA V would definitely be a second for me overall. Also yeah traffic is a nightmare we deal with every day.
I would love to do Vegas as I visited there too, I only have Driver 2, Crew 2 and GTA San Andreas that have open World Vegas' so would need to find more.
As a GTA and Rockstar Games fan I've long recognised and appreciated just how many of their games take place in or include Los Angeles. They all do it a little differently. I also noticed that the most north-west bit of road along santa monica beach where driving south you can go up a parallel slope to the left or ahead into the tunnel, happens to turn up a lot and is very iconic in LA oriented games.
I live in LA and now when I go to the griffin observatory, I’m going to call the arches the Davy arches from now on 🤣 This video about LA in different video games was entertaining 👏🏽
I visited Vegas too and would love to feature it in the future. I only have 3 games the feature an open world Vegas, Driver 2, Crew 2 and GTA San Andreas, so would need to find more. Maybe not 10 but need more than 3!
9:35 slight correction there, you CAN get a motorcycle up there without mods, you just need a Cargobob. The Cargobob is a military helicopter you can buy or steal in-game that has a hook that can pick up and carry any land or water vehicles, including motorcycles. You can put any motorcycle you want on top of the Maze Bank building and drive it off, super fun to do too because you have tons of control mid-air to do spins and barrel rolls till you die. Edit: Just now realizing how many people already told you this lol. Video was still great, and it's not like that point would've changed much since GTA 5 still won anyway!
Midnight club ii is such a unique vibe I gotta say. No other game really had the same aesthetic not even the midnight clubs after it, despite them being so good.
What’s crazy is true crime is actually a true scale version of la well the map is anyway , and landmarks 2 , but it’s crazy that if it takes 20 min in la it takes 20 min in true crime
The PC (but not the PS1) version of Driver has the Hollywood sign as a flat background picture off in the distance from a certain spot. Same thing with the statue of liberty in the NYC map. Is it possible to drive into that pool in LA Noire?
As someone who grew up in south central LA I feel San Andreas captures that part best like I can see the obvious differences but something about it just feels so much like the real thing
9:17 Good video but there are motorcycles in MC:LA. There are definitely playable bikes in that game, even the base game has one I think. South Central adds a couple more if I remember correctly.
La Noire is hilarious, they really sold the premise of “let’s make a La game before anything La is known for was built” only a team as ridiculous as Bondi could come up with that
Driver does have the Hollywood sign. In the PC version. You can't go to it but you can see it from a road to the north along the block from the Chinese Theatre.
You can crash through certain parts of the Vinewood sign in GTA V - where the panels are in the hole in the D. You can also use a cargobob to get a bike on top of the Maze Bank building in that game without mods. Deserves more points for incomplete testing!
i thought i remembered something like that from the story, its just been a good 10 years since i played the story, and i was like maybe i'm thinking of the taste of things to come sign in SA haha.
also, gta san andreas and gta 5 both have story missions that take you on a chase through the LA river, in SA it even has a T2 reference with the big semi crashing off the bridge to chase you
6:46 i’m pretty sure this and san andrea’s arenas are based off the Forum in inglewood, although 5s iteration has a mix of the coliseum in its design, it’s clear what’s its based off in san andreas
I like your concept of video, but I didn't like the quality of the recordings for the video games, were they run on some kind of modded emulator with thousands of shaders?
I know, I just have a very basic set up here, with an old laptop and cheap equipment and editing software. Making videos is just a hobby for me, I'm not a professional.
Excellent video. One thing I wanted to pick at was a reminder that driver is a very old game. And for most of the commenters, you (as in who is viewing this) were not even alive when that game came out. When we were kids playing that game, it was everything… An open world where you can explore and get lost in that we knew existed in real life but we could not afford to go there, was just as good as actually going there (we were kids cut us some slack). When that game came out, the graphics and everything that you could do in it felt so real. When Driver 2 came out… what? You can GET OUT / GET IN the car??!?! This might not mean anything to what you could or could not do in comparison, but for its age, I think certain things get a pass.
@@mike_wellington_ Yeah I totally agree I should've mentioned this. I hope my love of Driver came across in this video. I wish it could have got more than 1. It was amazing to play when it first came out, being able drive around a 3D space. Even though GTA eventually surpassed it Driver always has a special place in my memory.
@@FoolishPedro it does. It is pure nostalgia. And btw I edited a little bit for clarification. I meant the people viewing were not alive when the game came out. Not YOU specifically lol.
@@Wilex-Rivi I love Driver too, I was obsessed with it when it first came out. I included it in the list to show appreciation for it rather than to make it look bad.

I think nobody said that, BUT there's one of the parachute side missions in GTA V that you started in a motorcycle to jump from the Maze Bank Tower

The map was the biggest quality of the game, sadly that not applies to customization, gameplay and variety.

NFS underground 2 also set in LA. The fictional city named Bayview is based on Los Angeles.

If you do end up doing New York, try to include Driver Parallel Lines (very cheap on Steam right now). It has TWO versions of New York

Just from the game list alone, bro has good taste🗿
The Cargobob could have carried the bike up to the top of the building in GTAV, its possible to pick up bikes with it as well.

I know, I just have a very basic set up here, with an old laptop and cheap equipment and editing software. Making videos is just a hobby for me, I'm not a professional.
Horizon: Forbidden West depiction of Los Angeles is wild. Then the name of the city is called Burning Shores out of all things.
Great video bro
can you do nyc, san francisco, and london?
They're on my list.
@ all of them?
Yeah I already own a bunch of games set in those places!
Excellent video. One thing I wanted to pick at was a reminder that driver is a very old game. And for most of the commenters, you (as in who is viewing this) were not even alive when that game came out. When we were kids playing that game, it was everything… An open world where you can explore and get lost in that we knew existed in real life but we could not afford to go there, was just as good as actually going there (we were kids cut us some slack). When that game came out, the graphics and everything that you could do in it felt so real. When Driver 2 came out… what? You can GET OUT / GET IN the car??!?! This might not mean anything to what you could or could not do in comparison, but for its age, I think certain things get a pass.
@@mike_wellington_ Yeah I totally agree I should've mentioned this. I hope my love of Driver came across in this video. I wish it could have got more than 1. It was amazing to play when it first came out, being able drive around a 3D space. Even though GTA eventually surpassed it Driver always has a special place in my memory.
@@FoolishPedro it does. It is pure nostalgia. And btw I edited a little bit for clarification. I meant the people viewing were not alive when the game came out. Not YOU specifically lol.
You can jump through the vinewood sign in gta 5
Also in gta 5, you don’t need mods to put a motorcycle on maze bank. The cargobob exists
I would love to see New York or London on this list, a lot of games to pull from on the New York list
They're both on my list.
With GTAV you can do the motorcycle jump by using a Cargobob to pick one and flying it up there. So make that 11 points.
9:30 you could of used a cargobob but it might only work on cars I haven’t tried it
In GTAV you can jump through the "D" In the Vinewood sign
Admit it, youve seen LA and now you want to see Miami too in preperation for GTA6 :)
Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland has very faithful remake of LA
I drove through the Vinewood sign in GTA Online import/export mission
Now do the same with Miami and NYC! But please wait for GTA6 for Miami
GTA Online you can turn up the traffic for Jobs like Races.
As much as I love Driver, I'm both disappointed in how it did, and happy to see it remembered and included
@@Wilex-Rivi I love Driver too, I was obsessed with it when it first came out. I included it in the list to show appreciation for it rather than to make it look bad.
