    Bye Bye Black Box. I'll miss you. R.I.P. Black Box 2002 - 2011. We'll remember you for Underground, Underground 2, Most Wanted 2005, Carbon, Prostreet, Undercover, World, and The Run. This documentary was very touching to me. Thank you.

    This is by far the best documentary I have seen in terms of quality, presentation, and I've seen many. Cam, I said earlier this would put you on the map, so, I propose you to show this to the Need for Speed Channel here on RUclips, it's good enough.
    Your story telling skills are awesome, by the way, so as the way you presented this. Really, good work, Cam.
    Thanks,
    Racer

    Can’t believe this is 5 years old now. Still Cam’s most underrated video and deserves a million views. The amount of fucking man hours he put into this i can’t even imagine doing myself, this is actual passion for the series. If only Ghost could’ve upheld the need for speed name to the standard of Black Box.

    Nice to see Hot Pursuit 2 getting some credit. I've always noticed 2 (maybe 3 now) distinct generations of Need for Speed fans: those that came before Underground and those that came after (although now, you might argue that a 3rd generation would include those who came around since about Hot Pursuit 2010 or after). All of the Need for Speed games that came before Underground tend to get lost in the Underground hype, and that's disappointing.

    • @gordonbihl100
      @gordonbihl100 2 года назад +1

      They deserve credit the most, if it wasn't for them, Underground wouldn't exist. Maybe another racing game company would've tried to make something on import racing sure, but, the OG need for speeds is what started a whole generation of racing game fans. The first 6 NFS games deserve the PROPER remaster treatment.

    @MarioLalala 9 лет назад +6

    Cam this is amazing, you brought me back to my childhood in a way I've never experienced, and the drastic changes that the franchise went through never hit me until now, and I can clearly see the inspiration that NFS 2015 has taken from older games in the series especially Most wanted 2005 and Underground 2

    I'm very impressed, this is perfect. Finally a documentary from a true NFS fan, not just some random clips from the games. It's even better than I expected it to be, this is why you're one of my favourite youtubers. Ever. Thank you for making me feel nostalgic (especially on NFS II, both Undergrounds and Most Wanted), thank you for this beautiful documentary, you are just amazing and you blew me away.

    2017, Need For Speed under ghost games was the best thing it can ever happen to the series and for the fans.
    Payback, bringing back what we loved in both Most Wanted '05 and Carbon, more customization options, more cars, and new location.
    Don't let us down Ghost Games, you're doing well so far.

    Getting an interview with Mr. Drew Hahn was great thinking. I wish team BlackBox gets united again to make more legendary games.
    Thank you for putting so much hard work and making such an informative full-length documentary with lots of in-game footage.
    Great work guys. I loved watching every minute of it.
    Keep posting !

    The music selection was very entertaining and I'm glad you put a tracklist on the end because I was definitely gonna ask haha. Your work was also very polished and I can see the effort and all you went through to make this happen.

    Subbed! Great job man! I was gonna watch about 15 mins then go to sleep and here I am an hour or so later just done watching it. I consider both Carbon and MW2005 the very best of the NFS series. Those two games are like siblings. You can't just choose one over the other

    • @StraightUpHippo

      haha its MW05 and UG2 for me :P

    I honestly don't know how to put this into words, but what an amazing piece of content. All the memories and throwbacks this has given me is all thanks to the effort you put in. To work on something so hard and for so long (the past year) must have been an incredibly difficult task, but it really shows your dedication and passion for RUclips. I've honestly never seen anyone put that much work in a video. And because of this, I honestly think this is the best video on RUclips right now. You have my respect!

    I played NFS 2 once because I stayed over at a friend's house one night and he had a Playstation. I remember that info piece about the GT90. It is still the only time I ever got to play that car in a game, 24 years ago.

  • @exilef7531
    @exilef7531 8 лет назад +7

    If I had to make a personal list:
    1. Underground 2 - When I was age 5 and my brother was 10 I always watched over his shoulder while he raced and costumized our car. Sometimes I played it, but my brother was older and better at the game.
    2. Most Wanted (2005) - This is the game I always played with my friend. It is also a fairly big reason why we are friends for life. Without this game we would probably would have never met eachother, because we were the only ones at our school who shared the passion and love for Need For Speed. Always when I see this game and its logo, I remember to the rainy and windy days we spend at his house were we played this game for a very long time...
    3. Shift 2 Unleashed - This is the first NFS game I bought on my own and dragged me into the NFS franchise again. I was going trough a hard time; my uncle and aunt died in a car accident, I had a hard time at school, I had pissed of half of my school because I turned down a populair, (ugly) girl at schooland her friends wanted to make my life as hard as possible (they are crazy bitches). So when I was home alone on a cloudy day I went and played this and it made me so calm and gave me a feeling of being strong. When I play Shift 2 it makes me feel like I'm the only one on the world at that moment. I love the costumization, proffesional drivers and the championships and cars, even the soundtrack makes me almost emotional. It does makes me sad when there are no people who share this game the same way as I do...
    These are the best NFS to me, I played almost every one, but these are just part of my history.

    • @StraightUpHippo

    Man we took it for granted back when we just bought the need for speed games from eb games or kB toys without even looking at a gameinformer. We just knew they were going to be good. Ahhhh, my friends times have changed. I have been buying need for speed games every year since high stakes on the ps1. Looking back at it now, it’s crazy to think about. Black box was at the height of its powers, 3-4 hit games in a row and all truly legendary. Damn man, I miss black box, I remember getting underground 2 for Christmas in 04, hell I even brought it to school as my show and tell project. Just crazy how fast time passes us by. Good times....

    I cannot believe this video has below 7K views as i am writing this.. Such a great documentary on the franchise. Brought back a lot of childhood memories with the Underground series and Most Wanted especially. I never thought about NFS playing such a huge role in the reason i have a love for the car scene and a passion in the tuning world that i do now. I'm so exited for the Need for Speed 2015 Reboot and i hope it takes NFS back to its underground roots. Thank you for such an amazing and in depth analysis on the series. Cheers.

      No problem! Was it hard not to give your thoughts on the games you didn't like? Also, I watched till the very end, I loved this. I'm just curious, what was your first need for speed? Mine was underground 2.

    • @StraightUpHippo
      @StraightUpHippo  9 лет назад

      Very much so haha, I'm surprised it turned out the way it did haha XD
      My first was HP2, but my fav. is between MW05 and UG2 :P

    I have a feeling that most NFS games can never reach its full potential because of development time

      Lack of time, money, and good management are what kill large scale games both figuratively and/or literally.

    I recently started playing nfs again with nfs heat (First since Hot pursuit 3) and was looking for the history and stuff of the series. This documentary delivered more than i expected. Great Video!!!

    amazing work. I am a fan of nfs from hot pursuit and porsche unleashed. But after prostreet i kinda gave up on it. I sometimes tried the newer ones but i never really had the need for speed feeling like the other nfs games that really made the name for it. I really hope that nfs2015 brings me back to my childhood.

      It wasn’t really a Need for Speed. It was just another game with the Need for Speed title slapped onto it.

    did anyone else notice how black box keeps saying they had more time? seems to be a trend that all EA does is put devs under pressure and throw out any title just for quick bucks

    It's 8:49 am in the morning and The History of NFS has finished. Perfect. Was not disappointed at all and was definitely worth the wait. Nice way to spend 9 months wasn't it?

    You hit some very fine points. I'm in my late 30s now so everything that came out after HP2 never interested me. I grew up during the golden age of NFS, ie: NFS1-5. Had them all on PC and they were fabulous. I was never into that whole "pimp out" your ride aspect. With the exception of HP2010, nothing since has captured my interest.

    need for speed in my opinion should've focused more on police and exotics that could be fine tuned but not visually altered.

    • @kouki_kat

      they made hot pursuit, most wanted 2012, they weren't that good as far as long term playing games. but they should've focused on the opposite. tuner cars, just like underground. THAT'S what we wanted.

    God damn.
    I *really* didn't expect this to be a documentary.
    But it was, and it was a really freaking good one.
    Every time I saw a game I owned, I smiled.
    Also watched the video 'till the end.
    Freaking incredible work, Hippo. Wait, why do people call you Cam?

    • @StraightUpHippo
      @StraightUpHippo  9 лет назад

      Confusing Cube Cam (cameron) is my real name :P
