I recently replayed the entire career and challenge series on the xbox 360 after watching your speedruns and the feeling of playing the game myself for the first time in awhile was great. It took me awhile to find a 360 copy for a decent price and unfortunately my gaming laptop has no disc drive so I hadn't played it for ages. I also have to thank you for helping me realize that I needed to revisit this beautiful masterpiece Kuru :)

  • @tonysoprano4883
    @tonysoprano4883 4 роки тому +84

    I very recently played through this game and since I'm in quarantine, I plowed through it quickly. This game was one of my favourites titles as a child. I remember it taking months to complete and it was hard and unforgiving. I remember the pure excitement to unlock the Murciélago (pronounced mursi-yEHlaggo by the way) as a 10 year old. I realised how easy this game is as an adult and I wonder if people that weren't 10 in 2005 thought the same as I did now? After beating Ming and hopefully getting his Gallardo, the game is piece of cake from that moment. That car is way too good for being unlocked after half the game progress. The funny part is that it is fully maximised (only nitrous isn't ultimate iirc) and most ultimate parts need Ronnie to be defeated in order to unlock them (blacklist member #3).
    The rubberbanding is ridicilous. It is most noticeable when you play with a fully upgrades McLaren SLR and next to you is an Audi A3 and it outdrives you without any issue. On the other hand, once you get a hold of how the game works and how to drive efficiently, it's almost impossible to lose. And while the tollbooth and speedtrap races are insanely easy, the dragrace is so unforgiving it's laughable. I sometimes retried the same race 15 - 20 times before giving up and choosing another race instead.
    The police chases are as thrilling and fun as I remembered them. The feeling of getting millions of bounty after a hectic chase is great. Though, spending 15+ minutes on a crazy pursuit and getting busted for some ridicilous reason and therefore lose all your bounty is pretty annoying. That is the pinnacle of wasted time. Once I reached a certain amount of time played in pursuit, I avoided roadblocks because of the pure disappointment I'd feel if I crashed into a car but got flipped upside down instead and being forced to reset my car and getting busted. After a couple of failed attempts and wasted time, I installed a trainer just to be able to turn on "no busted" in extreme cases. The fact that resetting your car means busted instantly is the biggest flaw of this game in my opinion. It fulfills zero to me and is solely really annoying if anything.
    I never cared about the game's repeating pattern. The races are fun and so is the pursuit. I still think the graphics are good and I could feel the excitement inside of me while being chased by 10+ police Corvettes and Rhino SUVs. The soundtrack is great and memorable. I like how all vehicles can be fully upgraded. In theory, you can beat the game with the first car you purchase (which might be possible anyway due to rubberbanding?), unlike Carbon for example that categorises each car in a certain tier.
    Since some upgrade parts are unlocked after beating a specific blacklist member, and some cars only have one upgrade, you're forced to drive the car stock for a longer time than you might think. I bought the Viper as soon as I upgraded it, just to realise almost all upgrade parts needed 2 more blacklist members beaten in order to upgrade them. That means you cannot change the performance settings at all which is also a little frustrating.
    In conclusion, the game is great and I had a really good time playing it. I will play through Carbon now!

      It's a high risk, high rewards system; the bigger your bounty is, the harder the cops will be. The game is already gracious enough to not take away your car immediately after every arrest, it definitely could've been worse. I couldn't imagine it being done any other way that would still be as challenging and as high risk as it is.
      Your Viper situation is spot on. What I feel like they should do is to lock away just the highest tier parts off from us, so that we can actually feel like a new unlock is immediately usable the moment we unlocked it (the moment we're most hyped about it). The way they're doing it here just gives players the "aww, maannn" feeling.

Having sunk a few hundred hours into Heat, I can tell you it is a lot more polished than Payback and especially 2018.
      A big part of it is also that the online focus of modern games in general prevents the use of mechanics like Speedbreaker from evening out the rough edges of the modern handling model like it did with the Black Box games pre-ProStreet.

    I Played this game as a kid multiple times and have nothing but good memories tbh. The thrill of the chases, the Grind through the Blacklist, the tuning and the excitement when buying a new cool car. I remember seeing the lamborgini gallardo in the beginning and really wanting to have it, then beeing utterly euphoric when I finally progressed enough and had enough money to finally buy it and tune it. This game is a big gem of my childhood and one of the most played games of that childhood

    What makes MW so addictive,is the career mode with the ''Blacklist''.It keeps you motivated to beat the next ''Blacklist'' guy or girl,take his/her car and then move to the next until you get to Razor and win your BMW back.It gets more and more challenging,but there's no difficulty spike and you also unlock new cars and parts.yes,you have to actually unlock them,there's no lootboxes or microtransactions.Also,the cop chases are very well done.

Me and my cousins were on our toes when one of us was doing a level 6 chase to complete some milestones. The cars, the customizations were just mind blowing for a 12 year old kid me. This was and is my favorite racing game ever made. I've went back so many times. Ive played most NFS games but this feel...I dunno if anything today can replicate that. GREAT VIDEO

    Just everything about this game - the music, the mechanics, the feel, the blacklist, the heat system, the car choice...

    Excellent video! While I understand where you're coming from about the repetition, I think that more variety and more development time might have cleared up some of these issues you had with it.
    That said, I replayed it not too long ago and had an amazing time. It didn't feel repetitive in the moment, but looking back I totally see where you're coming from.
    Definitely still worth playing for at least a little while.
