 Hi guys, I'm back this time with 3d Grand Prix on the Amstrad CPC So my aim here is to race the perfect race And let's do that by getting the perfect start getting through the gears quickly really important to get in front of this first car And get that all important first place Oh, no, he's back with another video I'm pretty sure we're driving in McLaren here So I'm 45 I'm still playing Amstrad CPC games. How bloody sad am I? Goodness me. I need to get a life So this is the Dutch Grand Prix So let's assert some dominance in this race not be too greedy slow it is faster after all Let's have some fun boys These parts these corners will be tricky here. I just find it easier to go on the outside there and Then try and ride the curve a bit and then as soon as you see them in your wing mirror Just open up on to fourth and then slow that down the third Kind of getting the rev counter in the middle Well, if you're watching you just as sad as me so there you are all degenerates here I Thought it'd be nice to add a bit of music. So when we've run pre simulator Making sure to stay nice and tight to the corner there not get greedy and try and take it on the outside It's way too easy to crash in this game, you know one laps in concentration you lack the perfect laps gone Another reason why I did this video is because I couldn't find 3d Grand Prix on YouTube where somebody had actually gone around the track any of the tracks without crashing So I wanted to put that right Zandvoort isn't the greatest track for overtaking. There's not many straights lots of corners. So really difficult to overtake Just taking my time here into this corner dropping down the gear No rush if you try to rush and Sometimes the cars will steer into you or suddenly break Open up here again, try to get maximum speed If you can see on the left hand side, there's like a temperature gauge. You've got to try and manage that as well and keep that low You've got to take it really steady at this next corner really slow down and just slide it off otherwise I always find that bit tricky to judge when the car has just gone past you You never quite know where he's going to clip the wheel or not, but then as soon as I see him in the video I'm gone again So if you don't get your gears right or the braking right into some of these corners You just start to skid off and veer off to the side of the road and there's nothing you can do. There's no matter braking or ultimate Turning or this and the other it's you are sliding up into the grass. So you've got to get it right into the turn I read the other day that Zandvoort is back on the F1 calendar for next year So Wow I say wow because the track in real life is a bit mediocre It's really difficult to overtake So you know, we like to limit traffic jam The program's got it right there. There's not many places to overtake and as you can see the track layout is pretty authentic especially for the time So it's a bloody good game It's the shame you can't tell how fast you're going and there's only four gears And it would have been nice if you could have selected other cars. You've just got the one car and you stop with that You can take this corner flat out But I don't like to do that the cars in front of me on slightly on the outside. So just slow slightly there As soon as you hear those tires squealing Obviously the lower the lower of the squeal gets you've got a break. You've got a drop gear to break So you can Squeal into a corner and get through most but it's a bit tricky. You can just go off the slide You can't really ask for more from a game that was made in 1984 or 1985 It's got everything really for that time. It's a real good challenge You know, you can see that the speed of the thing is really good I mean I'm taking my time a little bit The aim there is to beat that high school Finish first But it's a bloody good game and some of the other tracks are really and I mean Silverstone's in their brand's hatch As a British F1 fan, you're made. I mean this looks a lot easier than it actually is You know, if you're thinking it's easy Have a go and see if you can get around without having a shunt or skinning off It's bloody vicious and that's what I like it Like I said, the tracks authentic all the turns are there What you can't see is the dips and going uphill and going downhill There are some games like Lotus Turbo Spray challenge On the Amiga and the Amstrad and the Specky in the 64 where it did try to simulate the hills going up and down But obviously at the time they never thought of that Just nice you through this corner here get to the inside and then try and open up a bit That's a bit nearly hit that sign there And then drop the gear down Again that corner there you can take with full pelt I'm just I'm just not confident And then again two cars there on screen later on you get a couple more cars on screen as well, so It does get a lot more difficult come out of this corner here on the outside and then drop again Slow down for this one not get too close to its grill He's all over the place this guy I'm not sure what he's gonna do but The inside watching there watching Nicely riding on me. It's getting so much Baby all the time as a kid just stay on the outside Normally in real life. You probably be on the inside there If I ever took him then all you got in front of me I love the big Orbus graphics of the cars as they come up to you. Yeah, they're a bit blocky But if you get close enough you can see the Amsoff logo on the back when I get too close to that Near your home. I'm near your home Think three more corners Just take me nice and easy now Just gonna get that score I get that score so try and overtake him for camp a little bit more aggressive. Come on Crash don't crash. Come on. Come on. Come on Okay, I think we're gonna get that score. Just hate this corner Anything can happen in this corner No matter how much you practice You can skid off or you collide into that car. Come on. This is it. There you go. You can see the Amsoff logo On the back of that car. That's pretty impressive Come on Get on the curb Well, if you've enjoyed this, let me know I can do Silverstone next There we go. We've got a We need this. We need this position I know we've got it. We've got a score if we can overtake as well. Oh wicked. That's fantastic There we go course completed The perfect race Thanks for watching and please subscribe and please comment as well. Bye
