GF365: "Can you imagine finding an unreleased Xbox game on an old hard drive? Well, that’s what happened to Modern Vintage Gamer, a YouTuber dedicated to exploring the world of retro consoles and their secrets."
With the ninth movie entry in the long-running Fast Saga on everyone's mind (and starring my man Vin Diesel, among others), it's a good time to revisit the history of Fast & Furious video games.
I'm looking at the tags for this article and almost wanna report it for tag spam haha
I really wish they would release a DECENT Fast and the Furious game for consoles. It seems like a natural fit and instant brand awareness. The latest one looks like a train wreck. With all of the F and F money, you'd think they would invest a little of it into a real game.
I beat the first game in 2 nights and it was fun. I got stoned as all hell though. Just completely fried. I'm sure it wasn't actually good but I had fun and that's what matters!
I really wish Driver 1-3 could get remaster/reboot… those games kick the shit out of this fast and furious trash
Honestly that one was probably my least favorite out of them all.
Edit* actually I just remembered parallel lines… lol
Not a one was good. I rather they make Underground 3 since NFS Underground was based off of Fast and the Furious 1
Fast and the Furious Crossroads was Crap.
Top Gear 2 would have looked like this with an extended storyline. Furious 7, the seventh installment in the Fast and the Furious film series is opening this week, so CineFix reimagined the whole series as one big action-packed racing game from the 90s.
Vin Diesel and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tag-teamed to drive Fast & Furious 6 to number one domestically with $98.5 million over the weekend. The sequel, which also stars Michelle Rodriguez and Gina Carano, is forecast to top $122 million domestically once the Memorial Day weekend is over on the way to $275.5 million worldwide box office. That would give the sixth film in the racing franchise the second best opening of the year behind Disney and Marvel’s Iron Man 3.
Over the past 12 years, gamers have seen different variations of the Fast & Furious franchise in video game form. Gameloft released multiple mobile games based on the movie franchise up until this year when Kabam took over the license with The Fast and Furious 6. Namco Bandai released The Fast and the Furious on PlayStation 2 and PSP back in 2006 in tandem with The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift movie. Raw Thrills has released a pair of Fast and Furious sitdown arcade machines that can be connected for multiplayer racing. And now Activision has entered the race with Fast and the Furious: Showdown, which offers challenges from all six movies.
Activision is great at releasing crappy movie games like Battleship and now Fast and Furious.
i don't know this time around those was very old game most movie looking game is good. now
The Fast and Furious movies from 4 to current have been more about heists than racing. Sure they have some purty stunts and explosions, but Fast Five lost me when Vin and Paul were all "Hey, we are racing for pink slips." and then a fade to black and they have pink slips. Not even a racing montage.
They should have made the game play more like GTA/Saints Row.
Damn. I was hoping it was the original open world F&F game that was cancelled. That game actually sounded cool. This is just an Xbox version of the Tokyo Drift game. Still cool to see though.
I remember getting a demo of Lamborghini from OXM just before it got cancelled because the studio collapsed, it was so good and when I heard they converted that game into Juiced I bought it day one; the demo was better!
MVG is a game developer now.
