OutRun 2 SP, PlayStation 2
OutRun 2 SP on the PlayStation 2 is a conversion of the updated arcade game from Sega. It was developed by Sega in cooperation with UK-based Sumo Digital and was released in Japan only in 2004. Note, though, that a version of OutRun 2 SP was released in the West as part of a different game…
Need For Speed: Carbon, GameCube
Need For Speed: Carbon is the fourth and final Need For Speed game released for the GameCube (after Underground, Underground 2, and Most Wanted). It was again developed by “EA Black Box” and published by Electronic Arts. This time in 2006.
Need For Speed: Most Wanted, GameCube
Need For Speed: Most Wanted is the third Need For Speed game released for the GameCube. It was developed in collaboration between EA Black Box and EA Canada, and was first published by EA Games in 2005.
Need For Speed: Underground 2, GameCube
The sequel to Need For Speed: Underground, and the second Need For Speed game (of four) released for the GameCube, Need For Speed: Underground 2 is a bit of a curveball in the series and is significantly different to the first game. It was developed by “EA Black Box” and first published by EA Games in 2004.
Need For Speed: Underground, GameCube
Developed by “EA Black Box” and released by EA Games in 2003, Need For Speed: Underground is a street-racing game in high-powered modern cars. It uses fairly spectacular 3D graphics and environments; has a nice control/feel to the cars, and is full of OTT flashy car racing FMV (which some might find unnecessary; I was kinda leaning in that direction).
Biker Mice From Mars, Super Nintendo
Based on the animated show of the same name, Biker Mice From Mars is an isometric race game for one or two players. It was first published by Konami, exclusively for the Super Nintendo, in 1994.
Hard Drivin’, Atari Lynx
Developed by NuFX and published by Atari Corporation in 1991, the Atari Lynx version of Hard Drivin’ was quite impressive for the time. It showed that the Lynx could handle rudimentary 3D polygonal games – and in colour. Something that its main rival (the Nintendo Game Boy), couldn’t do.
Out Run, Game Gear
The 1991 Game Gear port of Sega‘s classic arcade racer, Out Run, was converted by Sanritsu Denki Co., Ltd. and features “Versus Computer” and “Versus Human” gameplay modes.
OutRunners, Arcade
OutRunners is the 1993 sequel to the classic driving game, Out Run. It is specifically designed for two player head-to-head gameplay, which is why the game renders two screens – side by side – by default. For the purposes of this article, though, I’m showing just a single screen, because it looks better.
With enough machines, OutRunners could accommodate up to eight players racing against each other at the same time. An online version of the game was also released, allowing players to race each other over the internet, which was revolutionary for the time.
