1979: with a bit of imagination you can see a race car in those pixels 2020: game looks more like f1 than actual f1
If 2020 f1 looks like that rn how it will looks like in 2021?
@@Raf08 graphics have reached its peak so I don’t think there’s gonna be a lot of changes for 2021 but maybe just maybe the ps5 will show us that graphics hasn’t reached its peak
@@kratos1496 how do u know graphics have reached their peak? Graphics have been constantly improving year after year for a long time now so there’s no reason why it would stop
@@kratos1496 We still have to pass true flat 3D Photorealism. Then VR 3D Photoralism, and then work on other senses than sight (Maybe even IR, UV light even with sight in some "games").
8:41 that Formula One from 2003 looks more fun than this boring F1 2020 that I recently bought. Can't say why, but every here and there one game is just more fun than other games of that era (and not just THAT era).
F1 champ 2006 actually looks so good compared to the other game during that era. I like how they focused on the car and atmosphere in front to give a unique experience
It even look better than 2009-2017
I was thinking the same thing... I never played f1 games but honestly it was more visually striking than many of the newer games. The camera shake and blur all add to make it really believable.
they clearly focused on graphics
It looked almost photo realistic with lower res video with some smooth ghosting for that era, super polished and immersive.

Like racing in an arcade
yeah s lolzszszszs
Im stunned by look of 10:33 back in 2006 it looks sooooo good, only 2018,2019,2020 looks better, its absolutely amazing work
I was about to say the same.
I will totally +1 this. The jump to the 2009 version looked like a jump back 12 years.
I wonder if it was too tough to run.
@@Jimorian Its because the 2009 edition was on the psp
sound engeneering was also outstanding
For me, F1 2002 was the most iconic to me. Still remember playing it on my Dad's PC. Saw it again here and wow, that graphics was really ahead of its time.
Do you mean for you?

the best one
@@juanguindon5361 pretty sure the latest ones are the best ones. But it does look really good compared to the ones that shortly followed
I disagree, graphics were worse by far than Gp4 and the physics were a joke.

Hearing Murray Walker on a racing game (PS F1 from the mid 90's) just brought back so many memories of his brilliant commentary. Things like "There was definitely contact between the two cars!"
RIP Murray Walker.
"It's Schumacher, he's into the barrier!"
Unless I'm very much mistaken... I am very much mistaken! It's Alesi!
Yes that was a great game with Murray and Martin.
"Absolutely nothing wrong with that car except it's on fire " " the car is absolutely unique apart from the other one that is identical " "And I'm going to have to stop now because I have a lump in my throat" RIP MW, much missed.

14:36 "GP2 engine, GP2."
（But Renault edition
*AAÂÆRGH*
GP2 ENGINE
2002 Grand Prix 4 was a goat. You can customize anything in the car here. It was possible to turn off all the tips and you can only drive a circle if you are Schumacher and Adrian Newey both in 1.
Pole position in the arcades...the high score battles we used to have, SO much fun!
10:34 ... 2006 - Formula One Championship Edition.... this was a major step ahead in realistic graphics & lighting
checkered flag seems more like a punishment rather a game
😭😭😭😭
Yeah, it looks total shit, how did they dare unleash this to the gamers.
You can hear the audio start to come together properly in 93'.. and the graphics really went up a notch in 1996, 2001 and 2012
Biggest change was from 1983 to 1984 . 0:50 😂😂
Those Geoff Crammond games were excellent for their time.
Not sure what they had against Grand Prix 3, tho'. From memory, that was the best of the lot.
GP4 is still better than the official game today.
@@ab8jeh Yep. Back when I had a wheel and pedals, and raced karts a lot (before I became far too busy for that stuff), GP4 was easily the closest to reality. A few F1 drivers in the early 2010s said it was the closest thing to F1 at the time, and far superior to the official Codemasters games.
@@ab8jeh both gp4 and f1 99-02 from ea sports are way better than todays f1 games gp4 manual was awesome also :-)
GP1 and GP2 were absolutely brilliant. Only GP4 "killed" GP2
You missed Microprowse GP 3 from 1999 Was a massive masterpiece
Absolutely agree. The first really good integration of wet physics and drying track.
Also missed the Accolade classic Grand prix circuit from 1988 and the EA Ferrari F1.
it seems like that dreamcast game monaco grand prix simulation
And Ayrton Senna Super Monaco GP II
Yes he did and you are right for the time it was a masterpiece. Same as he missed Accoldae's Grand Prix. Played that a many time on the school's computers when we weren't meant to be playing games on them.
3:23 that is exactly somewhat today f1 cars make sound that's insane.
Everything was arcade except for Geoff Crammond GP 1 to 4. Pure simulation.... hours of testing and adjusting bump stops, rebound, ride height, ratios, brake bias, down force, suspension travel, recording graphs and posting hot laps ...miss the depth
So true. And the AI ist still the best. Much better than those Codemasters Piece of Shit Games.
The EA games were certainly not arcade, but ok.
F1 99-02 by isi / ea sports had better physics than gp4. But gp4 was great aswell.
Absolutely true!!! You had to adapt the car for every single circuit if you wanted to be minimally competitive to play at hight level. Even you must change gear or break by your self. Car setting must be adapted as well in case of rain during the race. It was incredibly exciting!!
I have the Crammond GP4 PC CD-ROM boxset in front of me: Year 2002 Infogrames - Minimum spec: Pentium 2 400mhz, 64mb RAM, 500MB HDD space - and still way more absorbing than 2022 Codemasters. This and Falcon 4 are the undisputed kings of simulation.
1988 Winning Run is insane - looks pretty damn good for being 34 years old! Hell, I'd still play it.
It does look superb for its time!! 👌😳
1987's continental circus looks staggering as well. It seemed like it took another 5 years to reach the fidelity they had.
3:00 final lap 2 driving is like driving on ice
Man, i just love 2002 and 2006. Maybe it's just nostalgia because i played them so much as a kid, but i love them
Grand Prix 2 in 1995 was SUCH a leap forwards, the few games after just looked so dated compared
Same with GP4. The others after it were total crap by comparision
1996 and 97 PS1 F1 Psygnosis licensed official releases were the biggest breakthrough to 3D era. Awesome games with realistic simulation and driving controls.
The lads at psygnosis were always talented. The Wipeout series is a testament to that.
The 2004 game looked already super realistic to me. I'm like alright we've got 20 years to go! I can't believe how far this has come. It is a real life experience since the 2000s
Thank you for this vid !
1991 F1 Gran prix was great for its time
4:26 makes me remember Senna crash blue and white car hit a wall ....
You meant a Williams
Senna died on 1994
It's a shame Grand Prix Legends isn't included. Best game ever.
Yes, huge omission... the best every f1 simulation and still holding its own... a racing benchmark
I played on my dads and it was fun
I agree, still playing it after 20 years, still loving it! The 1966 mod is my favourite. Paul in NZ
Very hard if you were used to arcade racing. Very nice game

@@jasonburell9897 Ok but you just cannot realise how futuristic and revollutionnary it was when tht game is released out in the 80s. I experienced the 80s.
That's realistic ngl
I especially like how the engine sounds like a 2 cylinder diesel
The sparks on 88´s Winning Run was the best thing, that attention to detail back then, loved it
A few of the games I had when I was growing up missing from this list: Nigel Mansell's Grand Prix and Grand Prix Circuit
World Circuit too.
the step from just having grass and a random landscape in the background to actually recreating the real-life environment around the tracks was just immense. at 3:58 you wouldn't even recognize it's Brazil if it wasn't for the map, whereas at 5:09 you can tell it's Brazil even without the map
10:33 that game looks good

My childhood was so happy with those simple graphics!
Same 🙏🥺 I would like to go back even if it is for an hour❤
The Grand Prix series always delivered titles that were waaaay ahead of their time. Jesus, look at 2002's GP4 , it took almost EIGHT YEARS until another company came up with a serious contender to it.
Continental Circus was epic. I spent a whole evening at Butlins playing it, even though it meant I missed the Chuckle Brothers. Sacrifice!

I had "Racing Simulation 3" from 2002. It had accurate failures, like engine smoke (F1 2012 had also engine smoke, but sadly they removed it). And the cars had more grip (they drove like trains). I miss that!
muy buen vídeo, me divertí mucho viendo la evolución del juego a lo largo de los años
6:55 "Come into the light son"

WoW, quite the leap from 1985 to 1987 graphics. 2002 GP4 looks good.
You can see the massive step-up on the graphics in the early 90s from 70s & 80s using the 32bit MPU's such as Sega Saturn and the famous PS1 and after that it's mind blowing !!
Imagine time traveling to 1979 and show them F1 2020
They would've asked - where has half the engine gone??
It always amazes me how different old games look to how I remember them.
I also saw this in f1 22🤣🤣
1995 Grand Prix 2. Way ahead of it’s time. I remember 5 years after the game came out, my computer still wasn’t good enough to run it on full graphics.
In 1979 Monaco was a straight track with everyone going flatout all the way.
Old games sound effects just amazing memories
1991 Formula One Grandprix was an astounding development.
I saved up my paper round money for what seemed like an eternity so I could buy an Amiga 1200 to play this. I played it first at a friend's house and just thought; this is amazing. i Must have this in my life!
Hi! Great game video! Like my friend!👍🎮
Really love to see evolution of games
F1 97 is the biggest leap one. Really a milestone for that year.
Formula One Grand Prix series by Mircroprose, best -F1 games during the 90's
Damn right. Geoff Crammonds games were the best.
i was wasting so many hours with F1 racing simulation back in 1997 :D i loved it!
I wish our videos were half as good as this Channel. Cussan is an Awesome Channel. :)
4:34 - THE BEST ONE!
After watching this, I'm now 100% sure we are living in a simulation.
The Geoff Crammond games were just the best Racing games of all time, even back then they still look good in 2020, it's all about the 'feel' not the graphics.
The physics of the Grand Prix series have always been ahead of its time.
Exactly. Other games at that time driving felt like skidding on ice, whereas with the Grand Prix series from Micropose you always had a sense of proper grip, if you got the setup in the right direction. Not just an arcade game, but a proper simulation. At that time the GOAT of F1 racing games.
2002 Grand Prix 4.... the best F1 game ever
It took until 2010 to come up with something better looking than GP4.
I don’t know how this was possible but thank you.
1989 version was awesome fun ! 1992 was great version too. 1996 was a magic year ! 1998 was may favorite year for gaming !!! 2002 Was the Year gaming started to change for being incredible break through.. 2019 wow really impressive !! Very Nice video Hope you update it to 2022... Great !! JOB !!
Four-time Formula One Drivers' Champion Alain Prost would be rightly miffed to discover that Cussan has dropped the "r" from his name.
Got my F1 start with Grand Prix 2 around 1998 which would run pretty well on my blindingly fast Pentium 200 MHz mmx with an upgrade Voodoo Banshee PCI graphics card.
Thank you very much
That's cool. In 1995, me and a couple of friends started to play Grand Prix 2. I can remember, that we are all were impressed by the "excellent" graphics and the detailed physics of the Cars in this Game. We played this game so many nights from the evening to the break of dawn. And in the middle of the night, when the beer was empty, it was very dificult to hold the car on track... 🤣🤣 And now, 25 years later, i'm playing the F1-2017 simulation since a few days - just to see, if the feeling is the same. It is. So i will buy the F1-2020 Simulation now - and for the next few months my nights will be saved - and, also, my boyfriend can sleep in peace🤣🤣🤣
2:38 Impressive graphics. I imagine people back then thinking those were the most realistic graphics in a game

Oh
I u see my comment u will see my fav one
@@djperry3916 ok
Pole Position was a great game. I miss Pitstop II with its introduction of split screen racing from this list.
I used to play Scalextric and Revs a lot on C64. In Scalextric you could even build your tracks! I drive Grand Prix Legends (1998) since 2003. The perfect choice for everyone with historical needs.
Revs Plus, what a masterpiece. I used to play it with my brother when we were kids: he would accelerate, brake, change gears, use the clutch while I would steer (with or without the space bar lol), just with ONE single keyboard xD We did the long run race on Silverstone, 2 hours of driving, no crashing, we won and lapped everybody including Johnny Turbo but except Max Throttle (we were very close to him at the very end but could not lap him afterall :)

1979 Monaco GP: Tracks several cars wide, trees on the sides of track and no corners Have the developers ever seen Monaco?
give it a break, it was 79. with the technology back then it was near impossible
@@jaxyouwill Enduro on the Atari 2600 had tight roads and proper curves, so they could have made a better job, seeing the game runs on considerably better hardware.
Nice to hear the late, great, Murray Walker again, and to see the excellent Formula 1 GP from 1991 as well.
Wow, from 1979 to 2020, they made some great strides. Crazy how games have become so to reality😍😍😍
yeah... and some things never change, during the 90's the blue cars were also at the back of the grid!
Geoff Crammond where are you now? ...missing you...
damn that's a lot of F1s
@Xero it would be strange if he says: 2019, F1 2019 Because the year gets mentioned two times.
It isn't even half of all F1 games 😄
I remember playing 1991 Formular Grand Prix. I liked that game. Now I feel old ;( ... ;)
Thank you for the video ! Would have been nice to know on which plateform each game is running though
there are 3 very important games in history: 1. Pole Position, because it was the first to give a proper F1 feel even if it was the 80s 2. F1 Grand Prix 2 from micropose from 1995, which was a simulator, had all the cars and circuits very detailed 3. Bizarre Creations F1 97 was the first proper F1 game on console, which had a simulation feel to it... the best of them all without any doubt is Grand Prix 2, it was just a masterpiece for its time, it was written in assembly language for higher efficiency, if you don't know what assembly is... is basically a very low level language that takes a heck of long time to write on it, compared to other more modern languages, with the advantage of being the faster and lighter for the hardware, meaning even on primitive hardware from late 2000, the Grand Prix will run smoothly unlike the footage its show in here... where framerate is bad, i can ensure you... because i re-installed it on DOSbox recently that it runs very very well on any computer.
I agree about GP2 & Pole Position, but why F1'97, and not the one with the 95' season? The 97' was finetuning to the previous iteration (which was fantastic).
The Grand Prix series from Micropose was simply fantastic. Spent nights on a weekend with my mates in front of the steering wheel. Great memories.
F1 40 years 🎂🎊🎉
Happy F1 40 years 🎉

De 95 pra cá, que os gráficos começaram a ficar aceitáveis!
One of the biggest graphics, scale and game play steps forward was F1 World Grand Prix for de SEGA Dreamcast (that version was exclusive and building from scratch from Video System itself. It's not a port from the N64 version, like some might think), released in the end of 1999 (with 1998 Season license). Sadly it's missing here. I remember play it back then in a friend's house and was really hard to come back and play my Formula 1 99 for my PS1, mainly for the real sensation of scaling and much better graphics.
