    I will definitely be buying this day 1, but like others, I have to wonder why Outrun gets ported/updated to death (and I love each and every single one of them ;) ) but games like Sega Super GT have never seen a single home release?


    Granted, if they came over as poorly as this gen's Sega Rally (way too oversensitive steering-- I know it's a rally game but compare it to Sega Rally on the Saturn or Dreamcast and it's totally messed up) maybe it's a good thing they're not ruining our nostalgia.

    @Justin42: Sega Rally Revo is perfect. The steering is the same as it was on the arcade and Saturn ports. Seriously, it's brilliant, from the graphics to the track design to the control. Me thinks you may be wearing your nostalgia pants a bit too tight there. :^)

    Personally, I look forward to this game. I play it OutRun SP all the time at GameWorks (various locales) and The BoneYard (Mayfield, Ohio)


    I wished that SEGA would make a better Outrun for the PSP though I expected better framerate, to be honest.

    I'm looking forward to the game, granted, but is there any real surprise they're seemingly so quick off the mark with its release given that it appears so incredibly similar to OutRun 2 with the addition of the online option?

    @DreamcastRIP: I'd like to know what exactly has been updated myself. I suppose better Live implementation, achievements, and enhanced widescreen support? So far this seems more like an "Xbox Original" release than a wholly new game, but I guess it won't be much longer to find out.

    As long as it has the option to play alongside the original, unaltered soundtrack (and history suggests that it will), I'm all in. Crazy excited.

    It's funny, I was just thinking about OutRun the other day, wondering what about it was so amazing back in the day. We've got so many different kinds of driving games now (arcade-y, sim-heavy and everything in between) that I don't know what a revisited OutRun would bring to the table.


    Then I watched the video.


    I've got to say I think they nailed the feel of the old games - just the way everything moved and worked reminded me of old school arcade racers. Updated to HD with more fleshed out gameplay - maybe it will be worth $10 after all!


    Oh and I can't agree enough about revisiting Daytona. C'mon Sega, seriously! Why are you just sitting on these franchises that your core audience would go nuts over? Daytona, Virtua On, Shining Force, Panzer Dragoon - there is more to life than figuring out new ways to crap up Sonic games people!

    Yes. Gimme. Now.


    And don't try to "modernize" it by implementing features that purport to flesh out the experience. This is a fan service endeavor. Any intentions to the otherwise and you'd be best served to create an original IP, Sega.

    As with street fighter... in junior high, I was a GOD at this game. I could beat the whole thing in the arcade with a single quarter. *worship me*


    Now that I think of it, sure I enjoyed Daytona USA and Sega Rally but I don't remember any arcade racer I had more fun with than OutRun. Awesome game!


    ...It would be amazing if it could be remade and still keep the elements of what was fun about it. I swear, if there's a drifting challenge, I'll burn that dev studio to the ground :(
