Infogrammes / Melbourne House’s Le Mans franshise deserves a video of its own. Two games that were way ahead of their time in terms of gameplay. Endurance racing has never been done as well as they did it even 20 years later. Not only tyre wear and fuel, but punctures from riding curbs or going into the gravel and an adjustable rev limiter to trade speed for fuel economy. It’d take an ultra realistic sim to have those kind of features these days. PlayStation2 controller had three schemes for accelerate and brake, x and square, analogue sticks and also L2 R2 all in play together, so during a real-time playthrough stint of two or more hours you could rest whichever fingers or thumbs were hurting by changing to one of the alternatives. Truly brilliant games, with terrible sound, unfortunately. But the original did have opening credits with Bohemian Like You by the Dandy Warhols, the game in fact introduced me to the band, years before achieving chart success due to TV advertisement use here in the UK. I have never played any game with as immersive endurance racing / Le Mans atmosphere as those. I’ve been to Le Mans four times for the great race, and they absolutely nailed it.
Since I'm German I never knew these games were ever sold as anything else than their own series. I played V-Rally 2 a lot and the track editor gave me hours over hours of new challenges. I played on PS1 and woah, how good does that dreamcast footage look!!
V-Rally 2 also had a track editor similar to Moto Racer 2, only a little more complex. Haven't played the game in a long time, though I remember the heart beat loading screens were pretty stressful to sit through. Not sure if it's like that on the PS1 version since I mainly played the PC version back in the day.
I love the first 2 V-Rally games, great fun once you get used to the wonky physics in those games. V-Rally 2 is even my favorite Off-Road / Rally game on the Dreamcast. Regarding that LeMans 24 Hours game though, the Dreamcast Version is actually not a Port of the Melbourne House PC game, it was made from the ground up for the Dreamcast. Let me explain: At first, there was a LeMans 24 Hours game from Eutechnyx for the PS1, that game got a Port to the PC. Melbourne House was then tasked to Port the game to the Dreamcast, however they felt that they could improve on the game way more than making it prettier for the new Hardware and made a entirely new game instead. This new Dreamcast game got then Ported to the PC while keeping the exact same name on the PC as the older Eutechnyx version had. There are 2 PC Games from the same Publisher, released within 2 Years, with the exact same Name and Logo (at least here in Europe, not sure about the US Branding of the 2 PC Versions) that are completely different. Sadly the much better Melbourne House Version is the harder to find release on the PC, guess people confused the 2nd game as a Re-Release of the older one to cash in on the great Reviews of the Dreamcast Version. This Melbourne House Version is also what got ported over to the PS2.
Oh, that's crazy. I had played the Eutechnyx PS version and I figured the differences were just down to hardware limitations that didn't exist for the Dreamcast. Wild that it's more different than I realized.
When I was a kid I had Test Drive 6 on the PS1 and thought it was pretty good. Then I decided to revisit it one day on PC and I have never felt so disappointed. The physics and handling were awful, the car models are extremely hideous (especially the Nissan Skyline R34) and the only good thing is the soundtrack.
@@sanity000-x2r Test Drive Off-Road 2 would have been alright if it wasn't for the camera. The camera shakes so much when a car goes over bumps and because of that, it gives me a migraine after an hour of playing.
@@MontegoReviews I haven't played those in a long time, but I remember, once again when I was a kid, that I couldn't even get past the first mission in Driver 2. I usually just drove around, stole other people's cars and completely ignored the timer and mission objective.
Great video again 👍 I was wondering if you ever plan to add captions to your videos? the auto-captions aren't great. I understand that might be a lot of work, so just enabling community contributions would be good.
You forgot to mention another fun fact, Eden Studios developed a PS1 version of NFS Porsche Unleashed running on the same engine as V-Rally games and it's vastly inferior to the PC version.
I actually love the Track Creator mechanism from this game, I was mostly spend time making tracks with my brother and played it. But yeah, the handling is horrible compared to other rally game counterpart, Colin McRae Rally. Still, a good game when I was playing it on my Dreamcast.
Looking back at old games and seeing some of them, like, JC 1 on PS 2, or GTA SA, MGS 3 on PS 2, then Gran Turismo 2 on PS 1 So many examples that just come to head And then TDU on PSP, what in the gods name. Oh and V Rally, quite fun honestly for short time i played it, was on some kind of NFS marathon trying out ones i never played, lets say... was better of the bunch... EDIT: Also LA Rush, honestly i enjoyed that much more than i probably should have, even having played the PSP version.
@@Kaceydotme What can I say I have V-Rally 2 Dreamcast (wtf is the Expert Edition mean are any of them different I think another removes the "2") as well, wished seen some night driving in this but anywho I never put much into rally games, no sense of progression unlocks it's only win as far as I can tell
Can you do a review on that fast and furious Tokyo drift based ps2 game u showed at 0:18? It's a fantastic game, and the only best fast and furious game
for anyone whos thinking about playing V-RAlly 2. Consider buying Dreamcast version. Not only the looks are better, but physics of the car is much more stable, not jumpy. Also, track creator lets you create longer stages
Disagree. Driving physics of PS1 version are miles better because cars have less grip, feel they have an actual weight and better gearing. It also rewards proper clean driving unlike DC/PC version where you pretty much never need brakes.
Hey bro, me again. I seem to react to all your videos haha. Just one of my many questions, Do you have Instgram? I'd totally understand if you don't though! XD And ah, what kind of music do you like?
Late comment but only just seeing this. For another example of regional changes, check out C3 Racing, a.k.a. TNN Motorsports Hardcore TR a.k.a. Max Power Racing (which is what I remember it as). The same game but really also not the same game. It's another Infrogrames game.
Good stuff. I love this game a lot and always have kept s copy. DC version is a fantastic update but I've always preferred the feel of the PS1 original. The handling is just a little looser for me and feels a bit more rally. Can't go wrong with either version though.
Originally, yes, but after a particularly rough January where I was scrounging up change, I had a conversation with patrons and other community members in my discord about monetization, because the extra cash really does make a difference when you make minimum wage. Everyone assured me it was the right thing to do, and any patrons offended by the decision are welcome to a refund for their pledge. (Including those who pledged after monetization went live but before I remembered to adjust my Patreon description) For transparency: I am *not* making a killing off RUclips. $60-70 per month since things went up, but even lately it’s more like $2-$4 a day. I only got *part* of the revenue for the last video due to music licensing. I also don’t put excessive midroll ad breaks into videos; the HP video had four only because of the copyright claim. I can’t control ad placement for that video. I’m not selling out. I turned down a Raid: Shadow Legends sponsorship offer that would pay almost a GRAND because I feel like it would conflict with my message and morals. I’m just doing something to make life as a financially independent college student a little easier. I hope you guys can understand that.
@@Kaceydotme I understand. I wasnt trying to say you were selling out. I just knew that in an earlier video you said you didn't monetize and I was just thinking maybe some stuff came up. Sorry if I made you feel bad in anyway.
@@Kaceydotme oh shit vanishing point... I played that on ps1. F&f doesn't look bad make me think of txr.. May have to look that up on ps2 emulator. Thanks!
You didn't mention that V-Rally 2 had a track editor similar to Moto Racer 2, where you design the route and choose a backdrop and it automatically renders itself into a proper race course. Or maybe you didn't include that if it was absent from the Dreamcast version, perhaps? I had the PC version, which I got from a Kelloggs Nutra Grain cereal back in 2003. It was an exciting feeling to get a full game from a cereal box, but due to financial and licensing reasons, the trend didn't last long.
I owned V-Rally and V-Rally 2 on my PS1, but their title was only V-Rally, not NFS V-Rally or Test Drive V-Rally, maybe this was a EU thing, who knows?
The one interesting feature of the PS1 V-Rally 2 (at least here in Europeland) was a bonus video where a someone uses a car featured in the game with Pike's Peak track if I recall, the guy driving in the short piece was also working as a consultant with the game (at least with PS1). In my point of few, the guy is a fellow countryman.
Honestly, I really did not take any of these "simcade" rally games over Sega Rally 1 and 2 at all. Just weren't as good to me. It didn't matter that all of them hard more tracks or maybe more realistic handling because they just weren't as fun or replayable.
hey uhh I have a suggestion for the next racing game topic if u think the wii version of hot pursuit was bad u need to play the mobile version its just....different
Well technically the Dreamcast (1998 JP release) is 4 years newer than the Ps1 (1994 JP release), but that's still enough time for a next gen leap especially back in the 90s. The games look fun, I should check them out. Currently playing GT 4 rally when this popped up on my feed!z
rally games were the best. i remember geting a fully original copy of colin mcrae rally 04 for my birthday in its big box and all and losing it a couple of months later, only retaining its small box for 4 install cd's. i still hate myself for that
Test Drive's kidney had failed in the 90's.
I'm a little disappointed you didn't mention the track creator, I have very fond memories of it and I don't think I've seen anything quite the same since.
Same, ever since I've played the game as a kid I craved the track creator to be a feature on other games, sadly it's a very rare sight.
The track editor reminded me a lot of the one from Moto Racer 2. Except you had more environments to choose from and could make tracks either circuit or point to point.

You didn't mention that V-Rally 2 had a track editor similar to Moto Racer 2, where you design the route and choose a backdrop and it automatically renders itself into a proper race course. Or maybe you didn't include that if it was absent from the Dreamcast version, perhaps? I had the PC version, which I got from a Kelloggs Nutra Grain cereal back in 2003. It was an exciting feeling to get a full game from a cereal box, but due to financial and licensing reasons, the trend didn't last long.
Whats your thought on the ps2 version of TDU? Is it good ?
How do you not have more subs your content is so high quality
vrally was my first game on ps1 (got it in 2008 LOL) i was so happy, the ps3 was unknown to me.
I owned V-Rally and V-Rally 2 on my PS1, but their title was only V-Rally, not NFS V-Rally or Test Drive V-Rally, maybe this was a EU thing, who knows?
The one interesting feature of the PS1 V-Rally 2 (at least here in Europeland) was a bonus video where a someone uses a car featured in the game with Pike's Peak track if I recall, the guy driving in the short piece was also working as a consultant with the game (at least with PS1). In my point of few, the guy is a fellow countryman.
It's a clip from climb dance, a short film about ari vatanen's pikes peak record
Honestly, I really did not take any of these "simcade" rally games over Sega Rally 1 and 2 at all. Just weren't as good to me. It didn't matter that all of them hard more tracks or maybe more realistic handling because they just weren't as fun or replayable.
It's weird how the series got bad in V-Rally 4. The game barely runs and the driving is terrible.
hey uhh I have a suggestion for the next racing game topic if u think the wii version of hot pursuit was bad u need to play the mobile version its just....different
So do marketing teams just think americans are dummies who cant find a good new ip with 2 hands and a flashlight, or are we really that dumb
What is the game at 2:20? 2:26 is Vanishing Point, right?
Well technically the Dreamcast (1998 JP release) is 4 years newer than the Ps1 (1994 JP release), but that's still enough time for a next gen leap especially back in the 90s. The games look fun, I should check them out. Currently playing GT 4 rally when this popped up on my feed!z
Dude your channel is a GOLD MINE of content! I hope you do an in-depth review of Vanishing Point for the PS1.
rally games were the best. i remember geting a fully original copy of colin mcrae rally 04 for my birthday in its big box and all and losing it a couple of months later, only retaining its small box for 4 install cd's. i still hate myself for that
There's shortcuts in the looped tracks, such as the first Spain track in arcade mode
can someone tell what the outro music is? i loved it so much xD
Whats the name of the final Gran Turismo-ish song that plays until the end of the review?
it's one of the GT5 menu tracks :)
Game at 0:18?
Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift (PlayStation 2 and PSP)
Wow, those physics!
And Melbourne is pronounced MEL-burn, for reference.
V-Rally 2 runs at 60 fps on Dreamcast yet V-Rally 4 runs at 30 fps on Xbox One. Sometimes it feels like we are going backwards...
