BOOTLEG NFS Most Wanted from Malaysia | DustinEden 

I hope you enjoyed this little trip down the abyss of obscure Need for Speed content! If you want to see the next bootleg I showed at the end of the video - leave a thumbs up and subscribe! Thanks for watching :) - Dustin

I can’t wait for Need for Speed: Carbon Generic to come out.

When you're such a bootlegger that you bootleg a bootleg from Russia.

Basically, this bootleg nfs most wanted game sold in Malaysia and it was made by russian bootlegger. Wonderful : )

Aw man, as a Malaysian this brought memories of me spending hours on CD shops to purchase bootlegged games.... Fun fact: bootlegged copies may be sold for less than RM15 (or approximately $3 in the early 2000s). They also came in “combo packs” which may include other games from the same series (think GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas in a pack), and the installer they used clearly meant it was bootlegged as it would usually come in different languages, and keygens you have to use. Before you ask, no, nobody gave a shit on who’s selling bootlegged video games. Pirated movies, on the other hand, would always be heavily monitored by FINAS, our national film and arts department. These bootlegged movies and games are often sold in CD stores as aforementioned, but would also frequently appear in literal night markets. Night market operations are difficult though, as police crackdowns are frequent and getting caught selling and buying those meant jail time and fines. However, with the rise of faster internet connection these days for streaming and pirating CD stores are seen as archaic, and only can be found if you look for it properly. Bootleg markets on Malaysia lasted for more than 20 years, and is so ingrained in our culture that some of the older teens would still remember how to find a movie “bright” enough or crack games with keygens on the CD. Fond memories.

When you say its from Malaysia, I thoughts they would replaced the car by their own PROTON cars

Bootleg GTAs, Bootleg NFSs ok my life is complete

I can tell this guy loves to play Yakuza games because of the BGM. Man...

I Like how it has an E and M rating at the same time, when the OG most wanted had a T rating

In my country (indonesia was also very near by malaysia) we have so much illegal PS2 disc bootlegs like the jailbroken gta san andreas the most known one is the dragon ball skin for cj -_- also we have a jailbroken burnout and 2002-2006 need for speeds too

5:05 those aren't hot wheels eden, those are the vehicles and potential rivals from flatout 2. We got Jason walker in the street ray?, idk if the muscle car behind Jason is the bullet GT or ray Carter in the scorpion, the 2 cars that the player barely misses is the blaster xl, and frank malcov in the pick up truck where I don't remember the name of, some of the taxis at this time stip and before are the ctr/ctr sports 5:42 that's Sally tailor In the road king. 7:24 there we got sofia Martinez in the canyon 7:33 the school bus from that game, easily recognized by the lights (yes this got informed to eden from chat but the information which vehicles and what rivals)

I live in Iran and I remember a version that had no music, no movies and some cars had their textures missing and no car had any vinyls. The language was completely Russian and the game would always crash whenever you got into any loading screen that would load you into the safehouse after you had done any free roaming or races. It also had a trainer inside its folder which I had a lotta fun with when I was 12 and I played this version with my friends.

I bought this bootleg from Sri Lanka in 2016 and thought "Hey it's Most Wanted, how bad can it be?" To my surprise... it wasn't awful. It's basically Most Wanted with a Reskin and I accepted the fact and played through the entire thing.

Love the Yakuza soundtrack

Well...This is not exactly a FIRST bootleg of NFSMW. I live in Russia and seen some of NFSMW bootlegs and there were a lot (Also some youtuber made a video about NFS bootlegs by showing them and playing them, in short those bootlegs were original games but with cars made in Russia)

6:45 Did anyone just notice that-

tbh, I'm a Malaysian myself and I've never seen that bootleg before other than GTA bootlegs at least in my local game store.

9:47 I know for one there's another I can think of. But instead it's a bootleg NFS game bundle that has most of the NFS games in a number of CDs. Check out LGR's video "Testing an odd Chinese Need For Speed PC Game Collection"

You should use a virtual machine for this sort of stuff, you don't need to risk your data.

There's A LOT of Bootleg NFS in Russia

As a guy from Malaysia I can assure you what your playing here is the tip of the iceberg

As a Malaysian, I honestly haven't heard of this bootleg version at all😂😂😂

2:09 as a Malaysian citizen, I am pretty sure that's not the Malay language

Eden thank you so much for featuring this..... "thing" I actually never thought anyone would want to even review it, or even do a video on it. It means a lot to me and I highly appreciate it, thank you so much!

You can find a ton of bootleg version games in Indonesia. especially ps1 and ps2 games and are freely sold here. because education about game piracy is very lacking, even when I was a kid the price of the game was less than $1 or $2 I thought it was the original version.

There's a photo circulating on the web depicting a NFS Payback bootleg, with a very cheap cover artwork and a banner that says "Games for Windows Only DVD compatible". It's obviously not the real NFS Payback, I'd put my bets on it being a heavily modified NFS Most Wanted, or Undercover at best.

Love myself some Yakuza soundtrack. Great video as always Eden

the "delete cutscenes to save space for copies" is actually a real thing in pirated copies, because certain discs can't contain everything in a game and so bootlegers/ pirates free space by deleting cutscenes and sometimes the soundtrack. This is primarily why i stray away from pirated copies because unfinished pirated games piss me off.

Ive been living in malaysia my whole life, and i have never all my life seen this version of the game. I bet not even my friends who pirates etc does.

"Every Masterpiece has its own Copies"

Mom can we buy need for speed most wanted? Mom: "We have need for speed at home! "

I honestly kinda prefer the more vibrant plant life. Maybe slightly too vibrant in this case, but I think something between this and the original would be perfect.

6:18, correct. Hence, it’s normal to cut out the movies-file. A smaller game also takes considerably less time to burn and produce.

Hah, this bootleg is made of russian modpack) Great to see how powerful was Golden Era of russian bootleggers (00's)

I remember seeing a Underground bootleg in a Malaysian store once, I think it had Shrek on the cover?

fun fact that one traffic car with the blue flames is the Bullet GT from flatout 2 also the car the cops direct hit in the prologue chase is Frank's car From flatout 2 :/

Imagine someone starts selling Pepega Edition as a PS2 bootleg

I live in Malaysia and there is so many bootleg game here. Even gta with dragon ball, hulk, iron man and many more

Fact: if there is no cutscene right before the last pursuit it doesn't give you the m3 gtr Don't ask how do I know

Im from Malaysia. I never heard of this version of Most wanted. Usually sold side road stalls

The thing that triggers me the most is that paintjob for the BMW. Dude just... why?!

i half singapore and half malaysian.somehow i feel it on ps2 era.

The REAL bootleg Most Wanted is pirate russian version with shit tons of mods. The most popular version on our market was the one where all cars were replaced with Russian ones. But that's not all, no. That's all those damn disks contained: broken translation, crooked textures and killed optimization. I was lucky because I played the original version and then I played the official version with russian translation.

He literally switched the traffic cars from FlatOut2. NFS MostOut confirmed.

This is the first video I've watched on this channel and already digging the background music. Can never go wrong with Yakuza 0.

Here in brazil we have a ton of bootlags, the most of them are gta bootlags for ps2, GTA sonic, GTA Rio de Janeiro, GTA Tropa de Elite(a brazilian moovie) GTA 5(GTA san andreas mod for ps2 because a ps3 cost more dan 10k back in the day, and the minimum salary was like las than 500 brl) and a ton off more.

Eden : find more bootleg nfs Me who lives in indonesia : 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚

I used to live in algeria, we had a ton of bootleg games most of em where modded Gta Vc/SA games. they would name em something like Gta vice city armageddon or Gta san andreas b13

this bring backs so many memories of this game, my brother installed this into the family PC and i just played it, and it's just NFS MW but with a re-skin nothing much.

Not gonna lie, i like the look of the map in the bootleg version

In my country..people doesnt even buy games and neither do they mod it...they just STRAIGHT UP DOWNLOADS CRACK AND SELLS IT😑

My inner Mutahar tells me that, you, my good sir, need to start using virtual machines to test more of those bootlegs! xD

As An Malaysia,those russian language simply means the bootleg Dev is edgy as fuck

why do I smell yakuza substorys from this soundtrack starting off at 1:41 :)

Now go start selling Need For Speed Most Wanted Pepega Edition bootlegs.

Awesome intro!

damn the backround music in the start is just perfect ah i love yakuza ost

Malaysia also has so many bootleg versions of its neighbor country's culture XD

Never have I thought I would see that game again.

As a malaysian, I spend my childhood playing bootleg dvd copy of ps2 and pc games. Mostly are direct copy from original and runs perfectly but some shitty bootlegs have tendency to crash during gameplay, the disc is very cheap around 2 dollar each so easily can add up to my collection. I'm glad finally I was able to afford real copy of games from steam so I wont feel guilty about it lol

I used to have DBZ gta san andreas. And vegeta’s hair would be always clipping through cars Edit: oh yeah, and CJ’s voice on his model was just perfect

Ayyy another great video from the boi himself.

One thing I should've mentioned earlier about the "III: Hot Pursuit Prostreet" Bootleg is that it has it's own... Disc DRM Protection. Meaning: The Bootleg Copy of "NFS III: Hot Pursuit Prostreet" cannot be played without the Disc

You can find More here in indonesia for bootleg games like GTA San Andreas xD

Love the Vargskelethor Joel references at the beginning lmao

Videos or over heavy content usually were cut from games not to use cheaper disks, but to fit many games on one. As 10 in 1 is indeed more lucrative than just single game.

Arab here, back home in the middle east I used to see GTA games modified to be more "halal". I think they did so all the way up to GTA 4 but stopped because of the expensive hardware demanded for the consumer for the newer games

If you pause at 5:13 That definitely looks like Frank Malcov's street truck from FlatOut 2

hmmm you said flatout 2? i heard it like long long time ago

gotta love the flatout 2 traffic

I'm Malaysian I've never seen this in my entire life until I watched this video

I used to have a PS1 bootleg of a Russian NSF High Stakes.

I had an unofficial copies of Need for Speed Underground 2 and ProStreet but it is exactly identical to the real ones

While I don’t have any bootlegged version of any NFS, I do have a bootlegged version of GTA San Andreas. It’s called GTA Gaza, and it was sent to me when my uncle from Dubai sent his old PS2. I booted it up, and I immediately sensed that something was off. The player model was reskinned to look like a freedom fighter, and most of the music were Arabic music. Other than those changes, it’s basically GTA San Andreas

Indonesia: are you sure bout that?

the textures in this "bootleg" is from a mod pack called city mod

With the much more green its actually looks way better then the "piss in my eyes"-filter of the original.

Need for speed:The return of the Myvi

here in argentina the bootlegs were mostly just of GTA sa, i used to have several batman, dragon ball, and superman discs

Yeah as a Malaysian back in the early 2000s it's almost impossible to get a proper original video games in small booths and shady stores. Glad Steams around even though the games are more pricey in this region...

LMAO In my country they used to sell these bootleg versions of GTA games, One of them was "GTA PUNJAB" which was basically GTA SA with half baked indian mods 😂

When Playstation 2 lots of kids want it as like me and in Indonesian lots of cracked and modded disc in 2005-2010 and its lots of nostalgic

I remember playing NFSMW at my cousin's house in 2010 that's the size of like 300MB or something because there were no cutscenes. Just made me realise how much space the cutscenes take

ngl this bootleg version from malaysia looks 10x better than most modded gta san andreas for ps2 from brazil.

Oh no. Not just I seeing bootleg anime DVD on store. But, also bootleg video game as well. I'm from Malaysia, but, oh my. What have their done!

Pro Street textures is actually a pretty good addition.

Great video eden

I don't have a bootleg NFS game, but my friend has (or at least had) a bootleg "GTA San Andreas Need for Speed".

I definitely did not expect flatout 2 cars in this game lmao

Awesome video!

I know this is a nfs channel, but you should try gta san andreas bootleg's from indonesia

I'm Malaysian and I have a copy of NFSMW Unique, but it's not the one you are talking about. The copy I had is missing, all I remember is you can have Razor's Mustang skin on the M3 GTR.

I found some Arabic bootlegs of games at a thrift store I went to years ago. NFS Most Wanted was one of em. Should have grabbed em. I found bootleg PS1 games at another one I love going to. I wish I still had the photos but i found "GameStation" copies of 007 Racing and Tomb Raider Chronicles, which had a fake artwork and screen shoots of the first build of Angel of Darkness. Wish I still had that photos. Ed: i forgot to mention while I live in Canada during the late 90s and early 00s it was common to find bootlegs out in Richmond BC for fairly cheap then. I miss the modchip days.

I'd play a game with hotwheels cars in traffic

I have a suggestion for you. It is not necessarily a bootleg, because this was a partmership between EA & BMW. It is called BMW CyberRace. These are super hard to find, I have a disk for it but I can't make it run because of the Windows 98 requirement, which even for virtualization can be problematic for playing games. So this game is like a version of NFS 4(High Stakes/Road Challenge) but it has just BMW cars. Maybe it is worth checking around for it or whatever.

Movies were cut out also for download traffic economy. Not everyone got access to the internet back then, so there we ppl who downloaded this kinda modded stuff and sold it to stupid kids. CDs were pretty cheap. Usually 5-8 bucks and sellers even did exchanges for a buck or two. I myself found out about most wanted from one of those sellers and my version (not modded) didnt have movies either (didnt cared one bit, MW is a legendary game).

The traffic cars are from Flatout 2. :D

3:21 thats just how you start the race, gotta count down from 3 lol

As a Croatian, I was very interested in getting games that were big back in the day and I would get bootlegged versions of games released around 2008-2009 in neighboring BiH, where it was probably harder to sell official copies due to a smaller market on digital software. Here, you could buy a legit copy for around €25 lol

Since traffic cars were replaced with ones from flatout2, can someone add through Ed road king from flatout ultimate carnage with the engine sound when it's fully upgraded?
