www.squarespace.com/whitelight with code "whitelight" for 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain. So this will be the last racing game video for a while now. Hope you enjoyed them. I learned a lot making them. Next video will be very soon, and after that I'm looking at Mirror's Edge to pass the time till Arkham. Arkham City has panned out to be a gargantuan project, so I'm looking forward to getting it out whenever it may be.
Thank you for this whitelight... My favorite racing game of the generation
whitelight has the absolute worst taste in gaming. C - A - S - U - A - L.
@@occiderisaethiopissa3702 *sigh*
pumped for mirror's edge!!
Please Whitelight, do Control's DLC's
The raindrop effects on the windshield were god-tier, that's what I remember most.
INDIGO! I wonder if you'll ever make a video for this haha, probably not enough material worth the lovely long format content on your channel. Nice to see you here!
And the S O U N D
Which is not great for a racing game when raindrops were the best thing about it.
Assetto Corsa’s SOL mod has equivalent if not better raindrop effects at this point
@@Redrash12 nice a recent Mod is better than a 2014 game ..
The fact that this game was released in 2014 is insane. Graphics have come a long way but... the game honestly still looks fantastic.
Great video as always!
yeah it looks absolutely amazing for console standards lmao
If only Sony didn't kill Evolution Studios and we got PS5 enhanced version with 60 fps..
@@RacerBest you still wouldn’t be able to see anything because of the blinding lights
Honestly, I played it last wk and although the effects and lightning can be considered good, 1080p upscaled on a 4k tv isn't the best.
BF3 was released in '11, on the 7th gen consoles and still looks amazing, so I don't think the year matters.
My favorite video of yours in a while, great work

I always thought that if Sony didn’t see Evolution as a long-term investment, then they could’ve at least absorbed the team into Polyphony and directed their resources towards Gran Turismo. Imagine these effects combined with PD’s already razor edge standards for graphics and physics.
I have the feeling that Sony, as they were and are, believed that polyphony was already too large.
@@TheUltimateEelI don't know how big polyphony is but damn do they BADLY need someone to help with the visual side of their games, or at least redirect their efforts from the weird obsession they got with Scapes and photo mode to the visuals in ACTUAL GAMEPLAY.

ssd? for graphics? you guys know ssd it's just a form to storage your games, right?
@@Bruno_Laion ssd can directly improve "technical level" of a game, look at ratchet and clank a rift apart for example, which lets you to change environment on the fly through something similar to portals, thanks to ps5 ssd
@@Bruno_Laion You do realise an SSD can load data much faster, so models can be loaded in game to make available resources for processing other things.
@@emulatorgaminguk2751 You do know that the fast SSD in the PS5 really isnt the main reason why its able to load worlds so fast? PS5 couldve have a mediocre SSD and it wouldve still been revolutionized how video games load. The real reason models and worlds can load so fast is because it doesnt have to go thru the CPU to the ram, back thru the CPU and back to the GPU. The GPU can rather just pull data straight from the SSD onto its Vram. Sure it requires a decent SSD for it to be at all beneficial, but the SSD itself has very little to do with it.
This dude would be so perfect for nature documentaries
Fr I almost a little bit confused "wait a minute did I click the right video? Where car and gameplay?"
One of my most treasured gaming moments ever was racing at night during a snowstorm in one of DriveClub's DLC races. The thrill and adrenaline is unmatched to this day, in any racing game.
I completed everything in DC and DC: Bikes. Got every single trophy. I love this game so incredibly much.
If whitelight is gonna keep speaking so sensually, im gonna request he take me out for dinner first

I never saw this until now. Thank you man, I've been watching your uploads for years.
@@Whitelight Thank you bro, Much love 😎😎😎 🏁🏁🏁 Keep up the good work 👏👏👏
Great fan of your driving man 🙇. It was just different experience playing the driveclub especially driving the agera r in the mountains of chile.
I could barely take my eyes off this video until it was over. You are in my opinion, the best game reviewer I've ever seen, that you are above just reviewing but I don't have to words that I'd need to say how excellent you and your videos are.
For real
That intro gave me goosebumps. Calm down, Raycevick!
I've never really cared for driving games but the love Whitelight puts into his words is nothing short of enthralling
I get what you mean. It's sort of poetic. I feel like he writes his scripts as a rollercoaster of the senses first and foremost. It's highly effective.
Agreed. I never played this game and probably i'll never will, but this video is absolutely fantastic and captivating.
The writing is such that there are moments where I could turn away from my phone for a moment, and technically not miss anything at all.
you are MISSING OUT.
I want this game for PS5 pls help not available in playstore.
I love how classy and clean DriveClub is. None of that cringe factor the Forza Horizon and NFS games have with there characters that try waaaaaay too hard to be cool.
Bro what…
true. although NFS is still tolerable compared to forza
I mean they try to be different
having variety which helps different types of fans still get to play their racing games
@@amintron well........nfs has unbound now.......
Its like arcade racers now look like they are competing on who can look more like tiktok.........
DriveClub has to be the most criminally underrated racing game ever made. Critics were way too harsh on this game at launch, but the racing community grew to appreciate it.
I mean the game is just a pretty package. There's not much below the surface, it was just the "oh my god look at those raindrops on the windscreen!" I'm not saying it wasn't enjoyable, but the critics were completely justified.
No they weren't. The game was not just pretty on the surface either. It was very nuanced in its driving feel with KERS or DRS on the cars that were supposed to have it, there was down force, and as the gentleman said, the bumps in the road and subtleties like this. The point to point racing was spectacular, the Ai was competitive and if you paid attention to the names that came up to race against, they had different racing styles. No matter how slow the car was you were in ATM, the game ALWAYS felt seat of the pants like it should, the faster cars were downright SCARY and LOUD and it never got old and even not being a sim, NO game captures the violence of driving fast cars fast like DC. Naa bro. Maybe you didn't like the game, fair enough, but there are sooo many things DC did right that were never before done so well and STILL have not been done better. Much more than the beautiful, atmospheric, great music and sound to love about DC.
Nowhere near right. This game had soul. Sure it was beautiful, and up there with the most beautiful games ever, but it's not what mattered to us playing everyday.@@Greippi10
@@Greippi10this game took some of the best forza horizon parts…and condensed it into this beautiful beast…it’s so fun with a steering wheel…I play horizon 4 on my steam deck and it’s close to this…from this adrenaline fueled feeling.
@@TheL1arL1arWhich is surprising, because it feels like the most boring and dull driving experience possible. When I walk into DC, it feels a level better and more energetic.
There needs to be a PS5 patch for this game, can you imagine 60fps 4k, it would be the best looking racing game ever...
To this day never reached
@Super Mario one of the greatest tragedies in gaming
That’s the problem with free to play games, if they are not profitable then they can just pull the plug whenever they want.
@@eddiedelreal4792 driveclub was free to play?
@@Player-re9mo Driveclub was planned as a free-to-play version combined with a full price release - Sony botched that, same way they botched so many other things to do with this game.
The SuperGT description of violence is so on point, I love it 😂
It's funny how a game from 2014 still has the best rain effects on a windshield
Nooo fucking way, that transition at 5:22 is magnificent
I appreciate the fact that you put your ad at the end. I actually watched it because it didn’t interrupt my viewing experience. Kudos
Same, it feels less intrusive, it's nice. Also you pfp looks small but is that Obama Spike Spiegel? Cause if it is that's pretty cool!
It was also really nicely made, not just a basic segway into a powerpoint presentation like other channels do. Also the credits at the end are really nice, it feels like I watched a short movie or a documentary, not juts a youtube video.
You've made me love a game I've never played.
To this day I have never had a better virtual driving experience than in Driveclub.
In 15 years of playing racing games I've never been more excited to just jump into a time trail with a hypercar, do a drift trial in a hot hatch or simply turn my headphone volume all the way up and rev a Ferarri in the rain.
This video perfectly encapsulated the highs and the lows of an astonishing video game that never reached its full potential.
Thanks for an amazing video 🙌🏻. I'm gonna go play Driveclub now👋🏻
Whitelights voice is like the sirens song, who among us can resist it?
Whitelight's uploads are a momentous occasion.
Yup. Love the ssj god pfp mate!
@@IlMemetor72 Ayyy thanks! I loved the piece of art so I had to use it.
Whitelight is one of the few people that can praise a game and make it interesting.
Fr man
Seriously tho. He makes a whole set of poems to praise the games he takes a looks at.
This game was honestly amazing in every way and by far one of my top 3 racing games ever.
The soundtrack is so underrated, it's a crime that the in-race BGM is turned off by default.
It’s up to you if you want amazing engine sound or music I prefer silence during race
I was in love with OST i put it all on my channel as well, best game with best OST, absolutely mesmerizing
The rain effects still blow my fucking mind
I remember getting a PS4 and driveclub came with it and I justice spent over 5 hrs just using the photo mode cos of how damn gorgeous this game was
I didn't even touch it. Still have it brand new in its plastic.
@@theblackswordsman9951 the servers are down now but still worth playing just to witness how gorgeous it is
And also cos it's a great racer in its own right
I’m actually gonna download this again lol just to relive these sounds and sights , I love this game soo much!
These videos are incredibly well thought out, the effort and sheer knowledge this dude puts in his videos are impressive af. These are the kinds of videos CZcams is made for
No CZcams was not made for this.
Hence why Pewdiepie and the gang are the most popular channels.
Nothing thoughtful is particularly successful on this platform.
Such a great review. I loved this game so much, got the Platinum and 100% on all three versions (Standard, Bikes and VR). I miss these games so much. Sure I could play them again anytime, but with everything done and won, the servers being dead, meaning no community, no clubs and no friends to face off against, only the AI, it's not the same anymore. R.I.P. Driveclub and Evolution Studios. You deserved better.
hi :) Is single player rewarding and fun? I remember playing though it for a few hours, this vid got me thinking I should try it again. Cheers
Only problem was it was only on Playstation. This game really reminds of the classic Need for Speed games of the nineties.
Only problem was it was owned by Sony, who already had their darling racer.
the problem was this game had pretty graphics and nothing else
What a gem of a game, very sad about its fate.
Rusky already said something is in the works for another Driveclub (of course it's not going to be called Driveclub)
@@daggerkettenring
Not sure how that'll happen. After PC3 was a failure he ran with his tail behind his legs yet again, this time being picked up by Avalanche while the rest of his old team remain with Slightly Mad or are working on Dirt 5's post launch.
Should I still get this game in 2022?
@@KM-lc6hj this game is timeless, can get it whenever you want. I love playing it time to time. Nostalgia kicks so hard. However i can feel little bored sometimes, due to how much i have already played it. It's still so good.
The way the vocabulary flows off his tongue is nothing short of amazing
The order 1886 and drive club were two games that deserved a sequel.
Canada looks much better in this game than it does in real life.
A fantastic video as always!

Is it F2P on console or just steam? The console playerbase needs more love it’s dying badly
These racing game video essays are some of your best work yet man. Split/Second, Blur, and now Driveclub. I've never seen someone use video game cameras so effectively to give such flair to what would normally be just straight in-game cameras. It's pure poetry, visually and audibly.
Dude, this game was way ahead of its time. Something that is massively underrated from it it is its sound. From sound design to soundtrack, this game always tickled my ear drums like no other racing game had. It's also the only one able to capture the sense of speed that notably absent from Forza.
Thanks for making this video, Driveclub was a game genre brought to perfection. It makes me genuinely sad that we will probably never see a game like that again. Driveclub is timeless.
RIP Evolution Studios.
MotorStorm and Driveclub live on forever in our hearts.
Whitelight, Ahoy, and Ross Scott uploads on the same day? Today has been so good that it’s made me scared of tomorrow.
man i literally just got goosebumps watching this video. Driveclub was pure videogame porn. The visuals are still breathtaking to this day.
"It's Super GT's vision of hell"
Hello, viewers.
Welcome to the shadow realm.
Haha
We need a second PlayStation's fallen masterpiece for the motorstorm franchise, it never gets the love it deserves but apocalypse is one of the best arcade racers I've ever played
Never played Motorstorm before except that one time inside a shop with the floor Ps3.
It was fantastic.
whitelights voice is so sensual i actually watched the credits
I've never heard anyone talking about racing games in nearly poetic way; hell, I didn't know it was even possible! Great job on that material!
My friend and I played this so much, It's the game with the best car sounds, the most realistic cars, and the greatest feeling of speed and force. and not to mention the graphics and weather.
A Driveclub video? This one is gonna hit close
"Wake up babe, New whitelight video"
« what do you mean you’ll be 30 min late to the wedding? »
Shit, beat me by 3 minutes.
*Nice*
Wish I had someone to wake me up

*Gets alert*
"Honey the tv, now."
"Why?"
"Whitelight has released a new video."
*"It's time"*
YES I feel that too
Wake the fuck up honey,we got a video to watch
This video just made me want to play driveclub game again
You're a national treasure to gaming, I love you for what you do, no one does it like you, no one.
Firstly watching this video for the actual review. Now I cameback for the art of your creation. Man you surely underrated on this. The words that i hear is so beautifully spoken. Packed with Great editing and audio managing. You can just leave this video here so one day people can treasure this video.
My father offered this game to me for my birthday, not long after it came out. I was not excited. Then I played it. It was soon the only game I played in my free time. I remember the sheer shock I experienced when they added rain and I drove in it for the first time. Then came the expansions, with new cars, tracks and bikes. I can't tell you the amount of time I spent on Nakasendo or Putre. I joined a club, participated in PVP races (which my friends and I dominated), got world record lap times... This game shaped my mid to late teens. Heck, my profile pic? it's me drifting in a LaFerrari in on Putre in Driveclub. A few weeks ago, my PS4's hard drive died. Lost everything. But the memories are something I will never forget and never lose. I loved this game more than I ever loved any other. Thank you for this video, man.
You are so lucky in life that the DriveClub was a gift for you. I couldn't actually be allowed to purchase a PS4 and the game itself. Demn, I didn't even know she existed back then... Now I dream about this game and just for the sake of DriveClub, I'm going to buy a PS4 Pro and a CD with the game soon, and then after a while find a person who will help me share the experience and impressions of the game thanks to all the DLC of this game. I fell in love with this game at first sight, and now I don't need any other game - just DriveClub.
Driveclub reminds me the first time i saw Race Driver GRID on PC. It blew my mind and it was one of the few games that made me lose my mind over the possibilities of next-gen racing games. And, like Race Driver GRID, years later Driveclub holds up surprisingly well imo. Easy to pick up and but a bit of a learning curve to master.
This video sold me on the game, and I keep coming back to this video and the game. Both are fantastic pieces of art and passion for something their creators love.
I really love listening to you talk about racing games. Good stuff. Thank you.
This game has a little something for everyone and it really makes you feel like driveclub , too many cars 8/10
IGN
I think this is the third time im watching this video
So beautifully written. I fell in live with the game, but also your writing style and narration are pure art in itself
This game looks overwhelmingly beautiful and your writing absolutely does it justice.
I wish I could play it. It's a tragedy that it could never get a deserving sequel to refine it, an even bigger tragedy that Sony kept this away from tens of millions of players that never got a playstation.
This game blew me away i used to race from a young age and the physics and transmission physics as you’re going up gears to find traction in the rain and the game physics response to surface grip, rpm’s, and gear ratios to help you find it intuitively as you would in a real car in the wet, was impressive… what a game. I don’t think you can buy it on PSN today… this video makes me want to play it again.
Love drive club I download every other month just to sit in the rain I guess it's my version of asmr.
The intro is a masterpiece.

Whitelight consistently has better scripts than most movies. I have no idea how he does it time and time again.
Your presentation was great in this video it feels u feel tha same way a real fan of this game can feel and if u also try all other car racing games too
Great work
This video is amazing. I don't even care about driving games (or even cars that much for that matter) let alone drive club and yet I keep coming back to listen to you talk about it years later... something about how you describe the game is endlessly entertaining.
The way you blend stunning visuals with perfectly placed good music, its drops accentuating the important points, is just brilliant. I have never really played a racing game, nor even owned a console, but this video made me care for Drive Club's hyperrealism and Sony's failings. Your videos are not only good recaps of what happend, but works of audiovisual art
It's wasn't just the murder of a great game but also of a great arcade racing game studio - Evolution Studios.
And apart from Forza Horizon, arcade racing games are having a bit of a crisis right now.
That's because they're being marketed to the wrong people. Publishers think the only people who buy arcades are 12 year old casuals who just want to drift like its another asphalt mobile game. We need more mature, believable arcades
@@ileutur6863 tell that to the average consumer. Horizon 4 got blasted with hate cause it didn't take place in japan, modifying cars wasn't thar complex as underground for example and there were not enough roads to drift on??? I couldn't care less about huge piles of ugly plastic but their screams are so loud, the next horizon will probably be a total jdm hell...

Still the best sounding game regarding to engine noise, inside and outside of car, tunnel or hills, just incredible sounds that sounds just like real life.
Facts!
I wouldn't know i don't own any of the cars lol
disagree. it sounds massively "enhanced". like your're in a tunnel all the time. i for one don't like it.
@@GraveUypo the tunnel effect was caused by the devs recording the real life car sounds in the garage with the actual cars from the game so other than the tunnel effect it's the most realistic sounding cars i've seen in a video game literally it sounds just like the real life counterpart

Damn good game, damn good youtuber. Gotta let you know Whitelight your video on Driveclub led to me buying the game for a 2nd time. The only game i have bought twice for the Ps4. Thanks man.
Damn, I never knew just how much impressive tech there was in this game. That just proves your point if anything. I remember it’s awful launch fiasco but that’s it. It’s a shame, I would have loved for this to get a sequel that fixes the issues.
GODDAMN, MAN, YOU INSPIRE ME WITH EVERY VIDEO YOU MAKE! Really, this video is so well edited, so well put together, so lovely to look at and listen to! Amazing, glorious, great. Thank you so much.
Me and my dad used to play this back when we first got a PS4. This brings back good memories. So thanks.
How many years fly away? But still in my heart! Thank you Evolution, thank you Whitelight!
Great content. I couldn’t stop listening. Drive club installed again after 4 years 😈 🤝
Your presentation of simcades and enhanced-reality driving is exactly what I've been telling sim snobs and arcade drift kiddos for years. Its the perfect combination of realistic challenge and power fantasy. Every racer I play these days is a simcade, I just don't bother with anything else anymore. Drifty arcades feel like baby toys and sims feel like chores
so what you're saying is "everyone who disagrees with me is dumb, i'm the only smart one".
yeah those "drift kiddos" are looking pretty mature to me right now
I enjoy playing both simcades and fully fledged hardcore sims, but I honestly I can't stand that tap-to-drift playstyle that NFS keeps going for anymore. It was fun in Burnout 3 Takedown all the way to NFS:HP 2010, but these games were challenging in their own ways. In modern NFS it just makes the game extremely easy and boring
@@GraveUypo yes, what are you gonna do about it
@@GraveUypo Dude, sim snobs are the pure definition of "everyone who disagrees with me is dumb, I'm the only smart one".
