Released: 1991
OutRun is a driving game that was originally released in the Arcade in 1986.
+ 15 beautiful courses available (with superb design) and seeing them all requires multiple play-throughs.
+ Sprite scaling is excellent and is used for both the roadside scenery and weather effects for a non-stop visual treat.
+ Ability to select a difficulty setting in the Options menu means that all skill levels are catered for.
+ The FM music is terrific and the addition of voiceovers adds an Arcade flair to this home console port.
- Gameplay is choppy which makes cornering an anxiety-laden affair and the rolling hills result in blind driving.
- The stage transitions are handled in a jarring fashion and don't subtly fade-in like the 8-bit versions.
