Midnight Club to me was always a Fast & Furious substitute. Too bad that series is unlikely to ever come back.
Midnight club cancelled soz
Need for speed underground was way way more fast and furious
I will always think need for speed is a substitute. Honestly for the longest time, I thought need for speed and fast and furious were the same franchise as a kid
I agree
Maybe apparently taketwo is announcing 5 new games
The fact this is a late ps3 game is stunning ngl
There were parts that definitely gave a vibe of "2007/8 PS2 game"
I seriously think the PS2 game looks better. Like that snow level from this game just looks atrocious.
I have the feeling Gina Carano accepted without consulting with the rest of the cast assuming they were all in on it.
If I was part of a multi million dollar movie franchise, and got offered a video game adaptation deal, and had no idea how that usually goes. I’d have accepted it, thinking everyone else obviously would too.
The most bizarre thing about this game is that it was actually a 3ds game ported to home consoles instead of the other way around. Also, having played Crossroads and Showdown with a friend, I can say Showdown actually has much better control and physics than Crossroads. Which is still truly unbelievable, given the fact that the devs behind Crossroads made Need For Speed Shift and Project Cars.
And firebrand games was a portable game developer
also showdown was heavily based on nfs the run on 3ds, you can tell just by the camera
I hope it was a graphically impressive 3Ds game so minimme can add it to the next episode! 👀
What's funny is that (former) CEO of Slightly Mad boasting up F&F Crossroads so much in response to NFS did bad with Payback, so he figured he had the advantage and made a game that's "better" than what NFS is doing for the next 6 years
Which backfired so badly when that game flopped so bad, Slightly Mad Studios eventually gets absorbed by EA again that said former CEO of that studio whose talked trash about NFS had to resign from his own company and from what I've heard, was making whatever tf is this upcoming sim racer "GTR Revival" is under a different studio
@@adlibbed2138 @adlibbed2138 alot of people that worked at slightly mad studios were known for talking shit I remember when one critized both Gran turismo and forza motorsport for including too much cars calling it stamp collecting while promoting the need for speed shift games he got quite a bit of flack for saying that
Eva Mendez's cameo in this game is foreshadowing her return in Fast XX, alongside every other named character that has ever appeared in the series.
XX ? I like Fast XXX better.
@@Gatorade69We do everything as a family 😏
Why did I type this out
1:53 driving into walls for no reason is truly one of the most relatable things, average Friday night, glad you covered this masterpiece
Ironically, his character pretty much says he doesn't know how to drive.
Game is straight up garbage none of them can beat Fast and Furious 2006 game
OHHH, that’s why you needed the Run footage 😂 props on managing to make an interesting video about this game
it's funny that both The Run and this were 3DS games ported up to a more powerful system
Kacey x Minimme wasn't something I was expecting to see today
@@minimme Didn't knew the 3DS could handle the Frostbite engine...
This game looks like a game you make so you can keep the rights
And it was also made by Activision... Same thing they did with Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5.
what weirds me is that there's both licensed (mostly Chrysler branded cars) & unlicensed cars that had radically different handling style. Most of the time the unlicensed "bruhout" knockoff cars handles way better than the actual licensed cars, like both of these vehicles are handled by a different teams (it mostly apparent on Rio race mission when you're struggling to win the race using an Orange Dodge Charger while the other hand it's a cakewalk while using the bootleg Lotus Esprit)
i demand a tactical espionage action game starting Han and Mr. Nobody
now this is an idea
I love doom patrol
Play Splinter cell.
@@MaxH0wardthey’re talking about the mr nobody from the fast and furious franchise not the doom patrol one 💀💀
Checking in as one of the dozens into the Fast lore. I love the entire series so much.
Such a goddamn shame genki cancelled the 2003 f&f game, it would feature 29 fully customizable vehicles and open world, one whole year before ug2
minimme content is loke comfort food for me, such a great way to relax.
I would love to see another Stuntman game, even if its barely recognizable and in a Fast suit.
I sincerely appreciate your commitment to playing games I’d never care to play and explaining them so thoroughly that I actually feel inspired to play them. I’ve bought several games based on your experiences and I just hope you keep this channel going. Thanks man. You’re truly my favorite CZcams channel.
Burnout: Paradise City - a game which I think was missed out on a list to draw upon for a F&F game - a step up in cutscene based vehicle hyjinx from driver but still a driving game with a brilliant soundtrack
The vault level reminds me of Knuckles Chaotix lmao
Also, Avalanche (Just Cause) for a framework, there are some great car stunts possible in their games. Car surfing in JC2, combat in Mad Max, hell even the top down Renegade Ops is alright
Bro!! Imagine a fast an furious game but its like the first stuntman game. And your playing as a stunt driver-double working behind the scenes trying to nail the driving scenes from the first 2 movirs. That woulda been epic!
Speaking of Fast and Furious in the arcade, I played the Midway Fast game every time I was in Walmart as a kid since it was the only arcade machine within an hour of me. Decently fun game for 5 minutes waiting on mom, and you could save upgrades for next time. It was released on Wii as Cruis’n, but it’s probably a meh home experience.
Wow that creature in the thumbnail looks like a biblically accurate angel from the cars universe.
I do wish for more minimme type videogames, mostly because they fit such a fun spectrum of action and spectacle.
Hopefully Resistor, the new car combat game, causes people to try making more vehicle focused action games.
Also more spy hunter.
The first game that came to my mind as inspiration was Just Cause. Considering how superhero-like the recent movies have become, the craziness of Just Cause 2,3,4 could be a good base for a good Fast game.
Are you aware of the cancelled ps2 fast and the furious game that was in development by the same team that did the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series? You can actually find some footage of it online and it looked like it got pretty far in development.
If you really want to make a Fast & Furious game based on what the franchise has turned into, I think you need a similar budget to two or even three of those films combined along with a development time of like 5 or more years. Making a tie-in game that delivers on such an experience is just not viable.
Makes one wonder why they even bothered.
I remember really enjoying Trackmania DS, which was also developed by Firebrand. It had a really cool indepth track building system and what seemed like impressive 3D graphics at the time to me
GRID and Race Driver on the DS were pretty fun as well.
I really appreciate how positive your content is. I think it's easy for creators to fall back on coming up with 30 different metaphors for calling something bad, but you always find something positive to say even in a video like this. Making games is hard and you have a great track record of giving the devs the benefit of the doubt. Kudos to you, my friend. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic video as per usual.
Only you can make a great, fun, insightful video about a game this bland.
Also great discussion about what makes fast games bad, would love to see more stuff like that
Great work
Despite them not being racing games, Just Cause and Sleeping Dogs do the vehicular combat element very well. They would be a great foundation for the Fast series.
Avalanche Studios in general would be a great place to do this. Mad Max, Rage 2, and the Just Cause series all have great DNA to build a F&F game off of.
@@ZackC totally forgot about Mad Max! That was definitely an ambitious and underrated game with surprisingly stellar vehicle combat mechanics.
This game for some reason awakens so many memories in me. The Spy Hunter game on 3DS is the most recent game I've played like it but more than anything it reminds me a lot of the Starsky and Hutch game that came out on the Xbox and PC as a pseudo tie-in for the movie. It consisted of car chases and played best in coop with one driver and one person shooting. Very cheap arcade fun. It's up there for me with Wakeboarding Unleashed (Tony Hawk but with wakeboards and one player can drive the boat in coop.) as zero budget games from my childhood that were so fun in coop I ended up playing them for hours and hours.
A Better Luck Tomorrow game could be cool
Need For Speed Payback is a pretty damn good blueprint for a F&F game. The three different protagonists, the government conspiracy plot, the "famous city" setting. It's all right there
Love your content!
I remember getting this game on the 360 at a PC Richard and Son with my father while we were waiting for my mother and brother were off doing something and I rarely remember even playing the game.
Finally came home to a new minimmee vid
Your last 3 videos made for a good watch while bored alone at work
I love minimme content of any type but every time I see you upload I'm hoping it's the Driver SF video
This came out the same year as The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, Aliens: Colonial Marines, The Fighter Within and... *sigh* Ride to Hell: Retribution. Man, 2013 was indeed a pretty rough time for gaming wasn't it.
I also wanted to include Beyond: Two Souls but I was worried that it would've pissed off the few detractors this game and by extension, David Cage still have.
When you were talking about which games could be used as inspiration for a potentially successful stunt driver game, I got to thinking about that strange "The Grand Tour Game" from 2019. It was basically a string of isolated, extravagant racing challenges inspired directly by events in the show, with all of the entertaining context provided as well. It basically felt like the audience was given a chance to do the same things they had been seeing in the show. Most people seem to think of it fondly despite its somewhat simple nature, but it does seem like that could be a good direction to go in with a Fast & Furious game.
That bus crashing into you at 11:50 during the tailing mission made me laugh so hard I couldn't breath
Conceptually, all of these mission objectives sound very cool. It's a shame the project didn't work out. It looks quite frustrating to play.
Thank you for always covering these sorts of titles. It's always interesting to learn about these games that sometimes drive under the radar. I am so sorry. I had to.
Nice that this was posted the same time Ludacris was announced to be performing in my city
10:10 oh wow that actually gave me GTA Vice City nostalgia. Love how the graphics are so shit they're endearing
whoa, cool lil intro thingy.
The point you made at 10:52 + was fascinating to listen to, as there really aren't that many (if any) Fast and Furious like games to look at in recent or not-recent years.
It all makes me sad that the Fast Franchise, or any Franchise Vin Disiel worked on for Videogames, has never gotten a well received videogame out of them.
10:53 I've asked myself this question many times. Fast & Furious has the material and budget to make something fantastic, they don't need to copy something successful to make sales imo. They just need to find a developer that actually "cares" about the IP, and not just there for a cash grab.
The one from 2006 is the only one I played and I remember it kind of copied SRS, which already wasn't a great game, but it still wasn't the worst thing I've played. Sad to see it's the best that F&F has to offer
Yeah absolutely, I definitely think a great Fast game could be made by a passionate dev with a big budget, no doubt. And it should.
I guess the point I was trying was more along the lines of - why hasn't a big dynamic AAA cinematic stunt driving action story game already happened by now? And I think the answer lies in it simply being hard to pull off right - every game that's tried it hasn't quite struck gold. It'll take a lot of inventiveness and boldness for a game to crack the code here, and I kinda respect Crossroads & Showdown for at least trying
ALSO i should add ur channel is fantastic
Fast and Furious 2006 game is best one and there will never be another one as amazing as it was
Really like your reviews. Especially on the Driver series. Some of my most favorite games ever but.....Midnight Club is my most favorite series ever. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on MC2 and MC3. Subbed.
Great work Peter
They should make a split/second style game with fast and furious branding. Reckon that would do good.
Thank you for doing this now I know to avoid the Van Dessel car crash.
That is hilarious that Van Dessel is not even in the game. 😱🤣😂
Minimme's regular reminder to release the Sims 2 DS video, already.
I can only imagine why Dom is absent is Vin Diesel gave a big no to this and he wouldn't allow anyone else to play him. Didn't have Tigon Studios' involvement whereas Crossroads did.
there are 2 early 2000's F&F mobile games. one about the 5th movie and one about the first few. i have very vivid memories but i remember them being fucking amazing
This sounds silly but when I think of an idea that would work for a fast and furious game. I think of the game that I’ve been replaying recently: Sleeping Dogs. You play as an undercover cop who makes his way through the ranks of a mafia or a “family” if you will. He grows too attached to this group and loses the picture of his job and then starts to do his own thing. You’ve got chase sequences on foot and while in cars. You can leap to cars in front of you and car Jack. There is a dedicated “Ram” button while driving. There are sections where you are shooting from a car window. It even goes slow motion when you shoot tires and the cars crash in spectacular fashion. Finally there is also street racing in the game and it is set in Hong Kong.
I would very much like a F&F kart racer. Just picture it: bobble-headed versions of the Fast Family in their iconic vehicles, maps based on iconic locales from the series (LA, Rio, London, etc), power-ups that give you the vault from Fast Five to smash opponents or the flipper thing from Owen's car in Fast 6. This design document writes itself!
I want to watch your videos forever.
This is very in depth
That imagine of Brian in a red car bursting into flames is funny
12:05 the Crash Time Series Games, based on the german tv show Alarm für Cobra 11. The games are suprisingly good.
Please stop making me feel bad for buying this game before the eShop went down on my Wii U im already crying cause of the space i need free from my hard drive lol
It's so bizarre seeing actual detailed Chrysler licensed vehicles and then quickly modeled slugs so low detail they're missing window transparency in a race. These are supposed to be opponents you're keeping an eye on, not passing traffic you'll only see for a split second. Only the box trucks and buses have windows because you're meant to hijack those during certain missions.
Vin... Ya gotta come to my cousins Fast and Furious game.... Eva Mendez is here...
Those vault physics are crazy.
I would like to see something in the style of a David Cage game
He back
A Smugglers Run esque game would be potentially fun.
minimme is back with f&f shit, popping the champagne
1:34 man that hit was brutal. Target was not neutralised, it was murdered
You just reminded me how incredible Uncharted 4 is
Oooo this should be fun
1:54 "my bad bro" im fuckiun dying xDD
You really need to cover Driver:San Francisco. And you should try Beatdown: Fists of Vengeance, looks like a game up your alley!
We have a great fast game, you reviewed it.
Wheelman!
I'm in McDonald's right now, love your videos
Tokyo drift tie in is actually goated.
there was a fast and furious game being developed by Genki that was cancelled sadly. Genki's games are pretty good, albeit budget title esque. so really bummed to never see it come out.
This made me realize just how cool this would be if you had an arcade setup where one side has a driver seat and racing wheel, and the other side is given a gun where they aim and shoot. One player drives the vehicle while the other player shoots while riding the vehicle that the other player is driving.
That seems like such a simple yet genius combination of the two arcade staples.
you should do a retrospective on the pirates of the carribean games
Good one! I played the legend of jack sparrow as a kid.
I heard somewhere that Cruis'n Wii was originally intended to be a fast & furious game?
Also the EA 007 games had some driving segments that would fit pretty well in an FF game I think.
Cruis'n Wii is actually a license-stripped version of the Fast & Furious arcade game by Raw Thrills.
I loved the conclusion of the video, great analysis on why there never was an actually good F&F game.
I would say that you swiped away Pursuit Force a tiny bit too quickly. The second game has some of the most impressive setpieces I've ever seen in a game and the rhythm is exactly what a F&F game should be!
Are you going to review the Fast & Furious theme park ride?
most arcade games HAVE to be fukkin magnificent. this is not ready for arcade.
A racing game with light gun mechanics would make for an awesome co-op arcade experience.
Or a challenging single player experience.
In terms of inspiration, I think the highly underrated Sleeping Dogs has all the driving, shooting, and hand-to-hand fighting gameplay mechanics that would fit a Fast and Furious game.
Split/Second to me is one of those stunt racing game with an enjoyable online component
Wake up babe, minimme dropped a new vid
I wonder what that cancelled open world f&f game based on the first film would've been like
Yeah but it's all about family, man.
And by family I mean, the FaF family - you will never get it until you've 1. Watched Vin "doing a live", or 2. Been "Vinned" - which you may feel like after you've watched a Vin "live" but in reality you have to experience it for "real".
Nothing is worth getting "Vinned" for, so I would just leave it.
The Fast & Furious FH2 DLC is the most competent Fast game I've ever seen by a million miles
A classic Driver like F&F game, that would be interesting to see
I got stuck on that Brian/Ludacris mission and never touched the game again
The Just Cause series could definitely be a base for a Fast and Furious game imo
This game is actually the best F&F game. It’s so bad that it makes you realize what’s important in life: family
I think the games that sit closest to what the latter movies have gone for are more like Just Cause and Far Cry: both have some driving and some shooting, with a main focus on action
I feel like we need a Fast game that takes from something like Spy Hunter, more specifically that one Spy Hunter game that starred The Rock
early on a minimme video? that's a first for me
I remember buying this brand new. Played like 2 or 3 levels. Then returned it the very next day after I got it. One of the few times in my life I've returned a video game day 2.
I appreciate the entire script being placed in the first few seconds of subtitles.
i like this video but i am looking for more minimme vin diesel related content
the fas and furoos
I was waiting for you to do a video on this game, it is really strange that they have never made a proper fast and furious game apart from the PS2 one which was ok, the closest thing you can get to Fast and Furious is either Midnight Club LA or any GTA game.
The best Fast game is the Arcade machine, the one you could punch a PIN in and save & load your progress.
That shit was tight
