The beautiful journey
Nostalgia is a wonderful thing. For people of a certain age Out Run represents days long past, a wonderful era when arcades reigned supreme and home systems paled in comparison.

This game should really be made available in Europe as well. And while they are on it, i also would love to see Afterburner 3D getting released in Europe as well. Nice ports of Sega's oldschool sprite scaling games are always welcome here.
I don't remember hearing that music before
So hyped for this. 3D Shinobi III and 3D After Burner II were amazing, so I'm certain this will be a great experience no matter what.
An absolute classic. Played so much of this in DOS, and even played it a few times in the arcades.
