Oh man, I've loved OutRun since the Yu Suzuki original showed up in my Pizza Hut when I was three or four. I've poured countless quarters into the 03 sequel and I'm probably one of three people that bought the PSP version so I could bring it everywhere with me. This is awesome.

Pizza Hut and arcades = lots of memories.

If this is just Outrun 2006 I'll probably pass.
Actually, I'll probably end up buying it, Live Card and all. I just love Outrun. Shame nobody plays 2006 online anymore. The arcade version still gets lots of love though.

It looks a little bit too much like Cruisin' USA to me.

No this game has more drifting and misogyny.
AoE @ Dec 18th 2008 5:35PM
no way, OutRun/OutRun2/Coast2Coast/etc. are worlds better than the Cruisin' series by far. Just imagine the Cruisin' franchise minus all the suck... then replace the suck with awesome, and you have OutRun Arcade.

I'll truthfully admit to liking the Cruis'n games, especially Exotica...

I want that Sonic X-treme game that never came out.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 18th 2008 12:45PM
SWEET.
Hey am I the only one who would pay for Megarace if it was on the PSN or Xlive?
I would be so happy if Megarace,Cyclon,Rise of the Triad,Microman or Sky Roads were released in those services.
CJLopez @ Dec 18th 2008 12:53PM
man, i'm sooooo downloading this and letting my friends get ti to play online
Deck @ Dec 18th 2008 12:58PM
Totally for this. This looks like it should be pretty fun.
Though, I would really hope that other people think the same so there are actually people playing online.

Instant purchase.

Finally a REAL racing game on XBLA.
I always loved this game, but what with not having $5000 to buy a full arcade version, I GUESS I could settle for paying $5-$15.
GSport @ Dec 18th 2008 1:12PM
This is good news! I wish they would bring back Speed Demons for XBLA! It was one of my favorite Dreamcast titles. Speed Demons would make a great online and single player addition for both the 360 and the PS3.
Dralthi @ Dec 18th 2008 2:05PM
The screenshots make it look like a PS2 game but the video did it some justice. Looks cool. I love aracde racers so I'm definitely checking this out.
Mr. Cantu @ Dec 18th 2008 2:47PM
Man, I might just have to get this. I wonder how different it is from the DC version of Outrun I used to own? Also, are those screenshots stretched? Look at the speedometer in the lower left hand corner, it's more of an oval than a circle.

The Dreamcast/PS1 game Vanishing Point by Acclaim needs to be ported now.
In A World (XBL) @ Dec 18th 2008 11:27PM
That was a great game. Did you ever drive the pickup truck? Man you fishtail outta control in that!
gimpy @ Dec 18th 2008 4:53PM
Excellent now let us have some 8 player online Daytona! there really is no more excuse for this to not happen.
tifosiotaku @ Dec 18th 2008 9:25PM
Licensing issues with International Speedway Corporation and EA's stranglehold on the NASCAR license say hi...
Biggie @ Dec 18th 2008 6:13PM
Sold for 800 points!
ysdarkfact @ Dec 18th 2008 7:07PM
Nothing better than playing the arcade version at Gameworks while getting drunk. It's virtual drunk driving.
Wiinterfang @ Dec 18th 2008 7:37PM
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!
Josh @ Dec 19th 2008 10:21AM
It reminds me of Sonic.
