      I agree that it’s pretty bad compared to the other renditions shown here, but considering how massive The Crew’s map is, the developers were probably more focused on quantity than quality, hence why it doesn’t look as accurate.

Of course all of the clips were recorded recently and I didn't start working on the video in the 90s, lol. And there is not meant to be any additional message or meaning behind the years. It's simply to let people know when the games were released. That's it. It is not meant to imply that a game has not been updated since then. Most of the games are still the same as on release but a few particular games like iRacing and rFactor 2 have had a lot of updates of course. I think it would be weird to label those few games with 2024 when I am listing the release year for all the others though.

    It's cool to see how they made the track before laser mapping vs after. The early games have the first turn at ~120° into the second turn of 90°. Compare that to the real track that's more like 70° into 80° which is what makes that section so incredibly difficult, especially with the elevation change

    I'm glad F355 Challenge was remembered but the Dreamcast version from 2000 looks slightly better than the PS2 version although I suppose the PS2 version was chosen to keep the footage consistent with the third person view seen in the other games considering that the Dreamcast version only has cockpit view (not counting modern hacks that let you play in third person).

    • @Paragleiber
      @Paragleiber  2 місяці тому +3

      Remembered is the wrong word. I had never heard of this game before looking for games for this video. This was my first time playing it. And the PS2 version was simply chosen because it's the platform that I am personally familiar with. I don't have any connection to the Dreamcast platform at all, so using a Dreamcast version of a game that also has a PS2 version is not something that I would ever even consider. But if the Dreamcast version only has cockpit view, then yeah, that obviously would have disqualified it as well. :)
