The VVV 2011 Review

[Jeisin914]

Holy crap there's two of them mind ducked here lol

[DotMartin]

Great stuff as always! Thanks for your superb coverage during 2011, looking forward to 2012!

The Safety Car!

I didn't think Mercedes AMG when I saw it. The Safety Car was my first thought :P



[MotoGPArchives]

I hope next year they make a good motorbike racing game.

[seashepherd123ful]

TWINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[paskowitz]

GT5 spec 2 and DLC coverage?

[TeamVVV]

@paskowitz No Sony don't want it on here, if I get direct permission we'll cover it, you'll see lots of GT5 stuff, untill then my hands are tied.

[paskowitz]

@TeamVVV Really. Huh. That is strange. I did not know they could cut you out like that. Not very nice.

[TeamVVV]

@paskowitz Yes obviously it's a massive bummer but we rely on PR support and Sony UK just don't want to give that to us. I'll keep trying though as I'm keen to get a regular show for GT5 and GT Academy, lets see what 2012 brings.

[ukskippy09]

I really like your review video and best of luck for the new year and i am looking forward for coming vids.

[TomTB27]

will there be any r factor2 vids when this is released?

[TeamVVV]

@TomTB27 I hope so, hope to get a new PC sorted very soon then we can cover rf2, GTR3, pCars and Auto Club Revolution in more detail besides iRacing.

[TomTB27]

great vid!

[dfragglet]

I got the GT3 RS with the club sport pack but I found the H shifter WAY to stiff and unusable. How does the CSR one feel?

[TeamVVV]

@dfragglet I had the same problems and hence decided to stick with the horribly clicky sequential.

[BeSweeeet]

Ugh EA needs to hurry up and remove the 30FPS cap from The Run.

[MickeyMoTiOnZ]

I'm so confused which twin has being doing what?!

[BSNismo]

Great video Alan and grats on a great year for VVV, firmly now the best online games show for all things racing.

[BeSweeeet]

Couldn't help but to smile during the first minute or two.

[xEnglishGaming]

like this if you <3 ALAN!!!! :) (i'm liking it) thank you Alan, cant wait for 2012 game reviews. your a great guy and i like the way Alan number two loves your "Grid" T-Shirt :)

[IIryanguettlerII]

And this is why, this is my favourite channel on Youtube, keep up the good work!

[BigFatSmellyCheese]

Have you ever considered actual motorsport Alan? Instead of Virtual gaming?

[TeamVVV]

@BigFatSmellyCheese Would love to, but it's impossible finding work commentating/reporting on real racing, you need to have a family connection to get involved.

[coachmillsblog]

Ahh, I knew you couldn't play all of those sims by yourself! Well done. Can't wait for 2012!

Thanks for all you do.

[TeamVVV]

@coachmillsblog Yeah Alan's had to do a lot of driving this year.

[robhowson26]

Great Video Alan, you do a great job. Well done

[TeamVVV]

@robhowson26 Hey thanks :)

[TeamVVV]

@robhowson26 Hey thanks :)

[JordanmGamer]

Great video Alan, glad I found your channel this year, love all the content and your passion for motorsport!

Ooh and I saw WRC 2 on play for £15 would you recommend getting it?

[TeamVVV]

@JordanmGamer If you're playing with a pad sure, though with a wheel I couldn't get a good feel.

[manchestutd99]

Why aren't you allowed to show Gran Turismo on your channel?

[miahallen]

Great overview Alan, thanks! I just discovered you about 4 months ago, but I've been watching all your videos since.....great stuff, really cuts the boredom out of a long days work :-P Happy New Years! Cheers!

[SalfordSam]

What was the reason for the Senna review not being released? I'd love to see that.

[Simracer100]

keep it to the racing stuff, not general gaming.

You re good at the racing comments and we like that!

[mrwillbreeze]

haha ! im loving the movie voice!

[DJPtopgear]

What??? You guys are twins, never knew!

[UtubeMember6]

@DJPtopgear i think he just edited two of him inside the vid

[crunchinjelly]

You didn't do your TDU2 voice! Haha

[Acemeistre]

yeh, I do link it all to my twitter, the forums and keep my page simple and organized.... perhaps, more of 'F1' in my vid titles and more tags for the vids... guess I'll keep plugging away at it then (could do with a catch-up on my 'music short vids anyway') :/

[Acemeistre]

Btw do you have any tips on getting my vids more views? I play F1 on the ApexRacingLeague website and after my races I put a vid of my race POV and a edited 'music short highlight's' of the race. Normally I just get 20-60 views from those on the website, but I feel like it's a lot of work for so little views/feedback.

Not to blow my own trumpet, but I do feel my channel is a bit of an 'unfound gem' XD :P

if u have any advice let my know, cheers :)

[TeamVVV]

@Acemeistre Well I'm not huge ;) but just keep making quality content, link it to your facebook, twitter, forums and it goes from there. Youtube is a funny one, if it was easy everyone would be doing it. :)

[Acemeistre]

haha, great review, especially the bit where u were unpacking the forza wheel and doing the 'movie voice' - made me laugh a lot :D

[lodestar260]

Mindfuck.

[IMAKITTYRAWRANDSTUFF]

Y'all need to start an American faction of VVV to help it grow.

[slmazadza]

hi

[poppleton66]

Hey Alan with you being a big motorsport fan I thought I would ask if you have ever been to the Lemans 24 hour race? If you haven't then I would definitely recommend it over any other motorsport event in the world. Plus it would be an amazing opportunity to get some real racing footage.

[TeamVVV]

@poppleton66 I haven't been to Le Mans but would love to go one day, alas I can't film it, I visit many racing events but getting the permission to show it on here is almost impossible most of the time.

[pucksaver95]

I wish they had Badgerbash-like events in the states. It's a shame I'm surrounded by NASCAR fans here.

[TeamVVV]

@pucksaver95 Worth starting a local facebook group and seeing if you can grow a small following.

[Gregz0r1]

What was that Badger stuff about?(apologies, I just deplore listening to newbie fans).

Silverstone 1987, was my fave race, as it was the one that lit my F1 fuse.

[MickeyMoTiOnZ]

wow im confused!

[4715rodriguez]

Very well done Alan. Best of luck in 2012.

[Nipper101100]

Great Alan. Do u no when the project cars game comes out?

[supercar97]

@Nipper101100 late 2012 i think, its a new PC sim, currently in beta phase, if you donate some money to the devs for it i think you can have the beta

[tortoise117]

People choosing Vettel over Schumacher?

*faints*

[Ollie133CUP]

Fantastic Review of the year Alan.

[eomund7]

thanks for all the coverage Alan! Loved the F1 stuff especially. Keep up the good work! Hopefully 2012 will be an even better year for you and the team :)

[TheGentlemansYear]

Great video Alan! Good luck in 2012, cant wait!!

[MrMarlby]

... It on the Nvidia and CMforums but alas no response from the Devs yet... It would be nice to know I wont have to wait until F12012 to get my F1 fix!

[MrMarlby]

@Alan : It is annoying and I know I can just use one gpu and play on a single screen but F1 2011 is such a fantastic experience on triples! There's threads aboutiton

[HK6]

I like Alan1's GRID shirt.

[CraftyLFC]

Grate vids over the year, if you can could you get more test drive 2 gameplay up :)

[kingskyline]

Woah! your twins. Thought it was just one guy.

[TeamVVV]

@kingskyline Yeah Alan's been a big help.

[MrMarlby]

Fantastic years coverage Alan, thank you! Really do hope you find the time for some iracing soon... Oh and if you could ask your buddies at CM if they plan on patching F1 on pc that would be awesome, the last patch broke it for me, huge stutters with SLI meaning I've gone from 90fps to 10fps on triple screens!!!

[TeamVVV]

@MrMarlby Blimey that's a huge bummer :/ I'll need to compile some community questions.

[Gregz0r1]

I've been so dissapointed in every bike sim for the last 13(!) years.

EVERY sim has botched-up handling, where the bike slips and slides everywhere.

the only bike sim that got it right, was the ancient but still awesome GP500, from the now defunct Microprose, way back in 1999.

I'm going back to Le Mans, after a sabbatical last year.

[doiwantsomerandom]

why did ur parents name u and ur twin alan? :S

[F1madfrancis]

Will you be doing a review of rfactor 2?

[TheMattmtb]

This is probably my favorite gaming channel.

[T3hAmunraaa]

Nice video! I think you deserve 6mil views per video. I am hoping for great new year 2012 and tons of videos from you. Thanks Alan and happy new year

[jerryjoe88]

I can understand why u put Forza3.5 on the back burner. It gets my vote for the biggest waste of $ for 2011. A dumbed-down bore of an arcade casual racing game. A BIG step backwards for Turn 10!(my $9 copy of Race Pro has sent Forza3.5 to the bargain bin)

Turn 10 developer meeting; "I got an idea, lets make the cars shinier & call it Forza4"

[TeamVVV]

@jerryjoe88 I had loads of fun on Race Pro, alas it deleted my game save a couple of times which really killed it for me despite loving the gameplay.

[alphaprawns]

@jerryjoe88 I can't really agree with that, don't forget that they completely overhauled the tire model as well. It is so much more tactile and satisfying to drive now, unless you drive with all assists on... But yeah, there's a lot of stuff I kinda wish they could have done without. Like Autovista, kind of a waste of time and effort

[mhchs6696]

lol at the csr unboxing!

[solid408]

Thanks for a great 2011 year Alan. Btw I just finished my first race in F1 2011. And it was 50% in Melbourne... man that was hard

[f0rmula0ne1]

Great overview Alan - looking forward to 2012!

[MrTrophyNuts]

I hate EA and their rubbish rushed game and money grabbing attitude

[ukogmickey]

We know you had those Velcro gloves on that trip to wales Alan,lmao ! Really enjoyed this video, Cheers man and hope you had a good new year and look forward to a better year from you in 2012

[SAFFY7411]

this is epic!

[scottwcoleman]

Alan in wonderland lol epic

[Pedropereir1]

i laughed so much in the beggining haha

[MagicAyrtonforever]

You are a funny man hehe :-)

[KreKeriS911]

Is Dirt creators are rally fans, why they fucked up good rally game?

[TeamVVV]

@KreKeriS911 If only it was that straight forward, this was probably more down to demands from the US market.

[KreKeriS911]

@TeamVVV Hey did you get ACR invite?

[SerialKIillerrr]

awesome editing lol :)

[beefburger666]

@TeamVVV The crazy snowman, now 2 Alans. What the hell will you think of next?

[supercar97]

haha great editing :D this is great VVV is the best automotive channel on the internet, better than isr...... just ;)

[TeamVVV]

@supercar97 Hey Thanks, working hard, ISR do a great job too! :)

[mattyrable]

0:02:27 go out and buy the game then?

[TeamVVV]

@mattyrable Nah, they didn't appreciate the content so why continue with the free advertising.

[gjl96]

Very good video, bit long but good keep up the good work in 2012 :)

[GeriatricFan1963]

I have lots of mates who are very handy at Trackmania if you're interested.

[TeamVVV]

@GeriatricFan1963 I might be, send me a PM.

[Sukmyclock123]

Why you not allowed to show gran turismo?

[TeamVVV]

@Sukmyclock123 As a Youtube partner I have agreements and permissions for everything VVV show, Sony's PR don't return calls and so I can't cover it.

[ISAACFLIP1989]

is that your twin

[TeamVVV]

@ISAACFLIP1989 That's Alan.

[FondyDondy]

nice effort, good video Alan, and happy new year as well!

[TeamVVV]

@FondyDondy Heyy Thanks! :)



[LEWIS2WIN]

Alan,doyou have a normal day job or is this it?

Great channel, found it while doing tdu2 research. Good luck for 2012!

[TeamVVV]

@LEWIS2WIN I've recently taken the plunge to full time, through the summer I was working 9:00am to 5:30pm then 7:30pm to 1:30am 5 days a week, working 12 hours on Sat and Sun, so if you look at the summer Dirt 3 DLC videos you'll see they are all recorded at night and I whisper to the camera.

[Imstonerlol]

What's the forza club name?

[danielmclegg]

Bloody hell Alan an HOUR!!!

[TeamVVV]

@danielmclegg EPIC.

[danielmclegg]

@TeamVVV No doubting that of course, just an epicly long vid! It's been awesome following your channel this (last) year, looking forward to more!

[hamiltonfan4eva]

HOW did you do that ?

[sernikpl2010]

Hey Alan, could you help me with a problem I have with PC games? I've bought NFS the run but I can't find the activation code that I need for origin. I dont have any idea why two games I've bought for pc yesterday have either missing activation codes or there are some strange and special ways of getting them because they're certainly not in the game's box.

[TeamVVV]

I can make an outtake video where I show how I filmed and edited this if you guys are interested?

[fizzy2o11]

@TeamVVV that would actually be great .. btw awesome footage from 11 mins :p

[xXRobby707Xx]

@TeamVVV YES!!! :)

[MusicMan1551]

@TeamVVV I actually already know how to do it (with sony vegas) but it's very hard to time it right. I'd love to see the outtakes.

[MarkSweetus]

@TeamVVV yes

[NickRichardsonYT]

@TeamVVV DO IIIIITTTTTT!!!!!! LOL

[alphaprawns]

@TeamVVV Yeah, an outtake video would be cool

[psychrome101]

and you thought u could get this into 5 minutes!!!!

[TeamVVV]

@psychrome101 It was just supposed to be a chat, some game flashes, then I realised the year was just too epic.

[fizzy2o11]

why does one alan look smaller than the other ? ... 2012's gonna be a weird year :/

[psychrome101]

that is just so random

[Foxman196]

well 1 dissapointment for me this year was F1 2011,but only the PS3 version,the PS3 had bad graphics compared to other versions and had sometimes bad framerate,I've waited for the patch which almost fixed nothing,so i traded it for DIRT3 2 days ago

[whguy94]

This is the most surreal thing I ever did seen.

[camiel221]

oke i am going back to bed stil drunk O.o

[SummerTheFuzzy]

i discovered your channel at dirt 3, awesome vids mate. You can see that you put a lot of effort into them

[evilfangs]

Come on, i know i didn't drink that much last night. Two Alan's wtf?

[gveest]

WTF 2 guys

[amdrke]

Hahahaha wtf :') I thought I was still drunk

[15AaronMan]

[flapecake]

XFD Alan overload
