Outrun 2-Exclusive to XBOX!!
 
Quote:
They said it would never happen. Then they said it would be PS2 only. Then, well, we all just got bored and started writing about Burnout 3. But now it's time dance in the aisles, skip through the streets and roast in the hotels, with Sega Europe today confirming that the sequel to the most famous arcade racer in history is heading exclusively to Xbox.
OutRun 2 will be shown on Xbox for the very first time at next month's E3 in LA, where the title's Xbox Live compatibility will be displayed, with 2-4 player action in network mode.

It better have tons of things to do for £40 cos the problem with the arcade version is it's too weak for the console, slap in a couple of pounds ur happy but £40. It is L!ve enabled so can it beat PGR2 ?

Indeed. It looks good, it's up against the best driving game ever in the shape of Project Gotham 2.

I think the only driving game that can realistically better PGR2 in the short term will be Gran Turismo 4 -- Polyphony and Bizarre stealing ideas of each other in each successive game *has* to be good for the gamesplayer :D

Oh, the memories of playing the original on my ZX Spectrum.
Having a transparent car and having to load each stage off of a tape.
Can't wait to give this one a try. :cool:

how can you not like pgr2, its one of the most realistic racing games on the market, and wicked online, so i doubt this will beat it as its an arcady style game, pgr2 has all the authentic cars and track, heck even the names of people who have died on some of the tracks:angel:

but i suppose everyone has a different taste in games

Just bled my fingers on PGR2 this weekend trying to upgrade all my medals from steel/bronze to at least silver to unlock further cars :D I want the Mercedes most of all.

I can go one better. I have the "Sega Ages" CD with Out Run, Afterburner and Space Harrier (and no need for a chipped/imported machine either) :D

Outrun was class, no doubt about it. I still play the arcade on MAME using the Sidewinder wheel on my PC. This was a game that had plenty of life in it because I only ever played it once or twice in a row in the arcades before going onto another machine, then back to outrun again! At first I couldn't see it surviving on the XBox. However if its a good ol' pick up and play like the origonal arcade and PGR2 I think I oughta give it a go.


P.S I remember the ZX Specturm version as well. Always avoided the course when you went under a bridge though. Things just seemed to slo o o o o w w w w dowwwwwn somewhat....
