Evolution of F1 Games 1979-2022 

1979: with a bit of imagination you can see a race car in those pixels 2020: game looks more like f1 than actual f1

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

1:55 first 60fps car racing game introduced

"Moe-nah-ko" sounds like an African rapper's name.

Im stunned by look of 10:33 back in 2006 it looks sooooo good, only 2018,2019,2020 looks better, its absolutely amazing work

7:34 He cut the chicane! He has to give back the position!

7:52 My hands! Gimme! Gimme my hands! COME ON! MOVE!

14:36 "GP2 engine, GP2."

"muh-knock-koe" GP

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!"

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.

From 2014 you could play the games while your baby is sleeping..!

how exactly did you get the pronunciation of a country like Monaco wrong

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

Don't forget that F1 2017 was the first F1 game to feature "No heroics into Sainte Devote please"

Those Geoff Crammond games were excellent for their time.

3:00 final lap 2 driving is like driving on ice

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.

1988 Winning Run is insane - looks pretty damn good for being 34 years old! Hell, I'd still play it.

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

You missed Microprowse GP 3 from 1999 Was a massive masterpiece

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

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

Thank you for this vid !

4:26 makes me remember Senna crash blue and white car hit a wall ....

My childhood was so happy with those simple graphics!

It's a shame Grand Prix Legends isn't included. Best game ever.

1996 and 97 PS1 F1 Psygnosis licensed official releases were the biggest breakthrough to 3D era. Awesome games with realistic simulation and driving controls.

Grand Prix 2 in 1995 was SUCH a leap forwards, the few games after just looked so dated compared

nice vid, but 🙃 i thinks it's great would you show which system each title is running on

10:33 that game 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 !!

1991 F1 Gran prix was great for its time

6:55 "Come into the light son"

muy buen vídeo, me divertí mucho viendo la evolución del juego a lo largo de los años

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

Continental Circus was epic. I spent a whole evening at Butlins playing it, even though it meant I missed the Chuckle Brothers. Sacrifice!

Old games sound effects just amazing memories

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

Thank you very much

WoW, quite the leap from 1985 to 1987 graphics. 2002 GP4 looks good.

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

The sparks on 88´s Winning Run was the best thing, that attention to detail back then, loved it

Very cool! :D

Imagine time traveling to 1979 and show them F1 2020

After watching this, I'm now 100% sure we are living in a simulation.

Great job.

😍😍😍😍😍🔥🔥 what an evolution !

It always amazes me how different old games look to how I remember them.

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!

Really love to see evolution of games

Hi! Great game video! Like my friend!👍🎮

F1 97 is the biggest leap one. Really a milestone for that year.

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.

Very good !

I don’t know how this was possible but thank you.

2002 Grand Prix 4.... the best F1 game ever

It took until 2010 to come up with something better looking than GP4.

Nice 👍

I wish our videos were half as good as this Channel. Cussan is an Awesome Channel. :)

damn that's a lot of F1s

Me: “mom, can i have a realistic racing game” Mom: “no, we have a realistic racing game at home” Realistic racing game at home: 0:50

Amazing trip nice memories❤️

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.

F1 championship edition

Ностальгия!!!Спасибо большое!

i was wasting so many hours with F1 racing simulation back in 1997 :D i loved it!

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.

Formula One Grand Prix series by Mircroprose, best -F1 games during the 90's

The physics of the Grand Prix series have always been ahead of its time.

😎 awesome 😎

Wow, from 1979 to 2020, they made some great strides. Crazy how games have become so to reality😍😍😍

1991 Formula One Grandprix was an astounding development.

8:12 in my life I only played f1 career challenge 2002

Fantastic

Awesome​

4:34 - THE BEST ONE!

Geoff Crammond where are you now? ...missing you...

Nostalgic stuff 🕹️👾❤️🎶

In 1979 Monaco was a straight track with everyone going flatout all the way.

GP2 was amazing at that time!

Four-time Formula One Drivers' Champion Alain Prost would be rightly miffed to discover that Cussan has dropped the "r" from his name.

I remember playing 1991 Formular Grand Prix. I liked that game. Now I feel old ;( ... ;)

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 !!

F1 40 years 🎂🎊🎉

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.

Omg 😱 just remember my first racing game i got when young Grand prix 2

Thanks for the all great comments and stay safe and I love your video and I love your car

This guy really shouldn’t have said Monaco, it just hurt himself so bad

De 95 pra cá, que os gráficos começaram a ficar aceitáveis!

amazing, u can see the drivers shifting gears on the steering wheel.

1989 Super Monaco GP on my Sega Genesis was an awesome game

3:16 Typo in 1991 Formula “1” grand prix

2:38 Impressive graphics. I imagine people back then thinking those were the most realistic graphics in a game

Pole Position was a great game. I miss Pitstop II with its introduction of split screen racing from this list.
