Yes! I was telling my gf like damn I remember playing the hell out of this game! But damn I’m spoiled and game jump a lot without completing the games. When I was kid I would just play and play and play till I best the game. I loved this game a lot
Passing Breeze, man that was a classic tune! This is one of my first memories of the Mega Drive, this awesome game and the Passing Breeze soundtrack! What great memories! :)
RetroKrazy A Would you believe "Passing Breeze" was used in a driver's ed video back in the early 90s, including the arcade game itself? (It showed someone trying to play it with their vision obstructed, the point being what can happen if driving a real car under those conditions).
@@LITTLE1994 Haha, oh my, I commented here like 6 years ago, lol! 😄 But yes this is one of my favourite Mega Drive games. 😊 I own it on Switch now as well. 🤣
Outrun has to have the best music of any game ever and in arcades as a kid this is all I heard. I love outrun and the mega drive version isn’t that far off the arcade one. It’s really just the sounds.
Yeah, lets just listen to the DEXED remake of the OST by Woody Piano Shack, and play Super Sprint in the arcade, a way more fun game. I mean, Outrun was pretty boring to play. Regarding the best music. Super Sprint is very nice as well, and the sound chip Atari used sounds way better than FM.
The best home port of its time. The music is fantastic, clear and warm, and most of the visual content from the arcade is here thanks to the 8 meg cartridge. What a game! Always a blast to play :)
+Jason Lee lol, no. The PC Engine port has tons of visual issues/downgrades including some which are due to limitations of the hardware: - lower resolution than arcade/Mega Drive. - not fullscreen with added black bars at the top/bottom of the screen. - less variety of others cars than arcade/Mega Drive (there's no truck, no Volkswagen Bettle...). - no parallax anymore. - and maybe the worst aspect: several stages lack the visual element(s) which initially defined their visual identity such as lack of beach at Coconut Beach, lack of clouds at Cloudy Moutains, etc. Overall the PC Engine port is okay but the Mega Drive one offers a better and more complete experience.
+Night Driver for an 8 megabit game the Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive Out Run seemed a bit rushed when the developer finished it i would've used either 9, 10, 11, 12 megabits
+Jason Lee Not sure about a bigger cart but, yep, while it's a good port it could have been slightly better. As i said the music sound fantastic (and blow away the quite poor PC Engine renditions) but a better usage of the audio capabilities could have brought back the engine noise (whereas the PC Engine port lacks all the digit voices). Then visually the towers at Seaside Town are lacking (but at least the sea on the roadside is here) and the goal banner at the end looks like a joke. But other than these few flaws Mega Drive's OutRun is great and even has some exclusive content/touches which make it even more interesting.
Lol Super Mario Kart is leagues beyond this port. F-Zero also pisses on it from a great height. Both those games run at 60fps, while Outrun on Genesis is only 20fps, by the way. But Outrun on Genesis is still decent for what it is.
This really brought it all back, but then it became bittersweet when the ending started playing after finishing all five courses. I thought finishing a course, as in any one course, beat the game. I was sadly mistaken.
Takes me back to when I played the arcade in about 1986! Loved it then and have too many good memories not to want to watch this, great stuff, great upload. Could you tell us how you got the video quality so good. This is the best standard tv I have ever saw on youtube in HD, what are you using to record? Thank you in advance.
Outrun was my most favorite driving game that I was a huge fan great port on Genesis also my favorite versions or ports on Arcade, Saturn, Master System, Game Gear, Game Boy Advance. Even I beat Outrun on Genesis so easy to get Route B on Easy and Normal mode 🌟⭐🥇
Also Ps1 features exclusive transparencies, multi source dynamic lighting and enviromental mapping reflection effects, as you can see e.g. in the actual mirroring save crystals in Tomb Raider 1 for Ps1 while in the Sat version we have just a flat crystal, in Gran Turismo 2 and in C12, one of the latest of the great Ps1 era. ;-)
Been playing the arcade version in Yakuza 0 lately, surprised the Mega Drive version wasn't closer to the arcade version considering how Super Hang On ended up
I got a question please. Is that normal? I turned off the music in the option menu, and while playing, there was no sound from the Ferrari, which made me thought I may have a defect cart?
Games nowadays are a scam, they don't even have music, and if they have, it's garbage. Retro games were 100% quality, physical products with amazing art and music
z00ts00t77 what is awesome/brillant about the Sega Saturn Out Run??? is it because it looked, played, sounded like the 1986 arcade original game version?
Heartbreaking the megadrive never saw a correct version of Outrun considering it will basically be remembered as the pinnacle of Sega home hardware. Sega made some truly shocking decisions which ultimately led to their downfall.
Interessante como a sensação de velocidade é bem maior na versão 16 Bits... Veja esse gameplay comparado à versão do Sega Saturn, por exemplo! Seja por conta dos fps ou qual for o motivo, a versão do Mega Drive parece incrivelmente rápida!
im playing this on an emulator on my mac and no matter which difficulty setting i use, time runs out just after choosing the fork despite top speed all the way and no collisions. maybe a bad rom?
Make sure you press the button for the faster speed. You have to press one of the buttons on the Genesis to get the car into another mode that's a lot faster.
I have beat this game a few times but I always get the congratulations picture at the end when they have got their back to the camera and not when they are looking at the camera for some reason.
Ever tried the various retro gaming forums (Buy and Sell Threads)? You probably know about those though since it seems you have some classic games around. big thumbs up to that Neo Geo collecting on that thing is expensive.
Nice conversion.. Didnt like how they didnt put the engine sound or the first left and right stages in the correct order.. Then again it didnt bother me that much because depending on route take you now do both stages..
A great port except for the lack of engine sound they surely could have included this there was no excuse people could have enabled music and engine, engine only or just music 🎵 what where they thinking.
Thanks. :) Well, the Saturn ('94 console ;) version is basically an arcade perfect as well as the other arcade games included in the Sega Ages Collections for that console. :) (Sorry for the ignorance, my english knowledge is far from being perfect, with "bar" you meant "except"? )
I think that Ps1 was and still is overall considerable superior (technically surpassed only the by Dreamcast),because the cd media was finally well exploited with better compressed mpg1 fmv compared to Sat (that on the contrary has a memory expansion slot and mem carts never seriously exploited).
For the first one, Sega never got any backing from Ferrari and it concerned Sega out of fear that they would be sued by the car manufacturer. All of this changed in 2003's OutRun 2 when Sega got permission for Ferrari which allowed them to get the many vehicles in Ferrari's history, including the 250 GTO (as seen in Ferris Bueller's Day Off), the 308 GTS (as seen in Magnum P.I.) as well as the Daytona Spyder and the Testarossa (both famously known due to Miami Vice).

2nd fav conversion after the Saturn version, cannot wait for the 3DS iteration to be released in the west.
The Saturn conversion was indeed awesome and handled brilliantly.
z00ts00t77 what is awesome/brillant about the Sega Saturn Out Run??? is it because it looked, played, sounded like the 1986 arcade original game version?
Nope, take the Saturn version as a "remaster" of the game, because it runs at full 60 FPS, and its awesome.
***** you wouldn't classify Sega Saturn Out Run as a conversion because it ran (runs) at 60 FPS frames a second
Its remade from scratch to take advantage of the Saturn´s power, so i like to call it a remaster.
Esse jogo tem músicas que servem como terapia, PQP!!!! Nostalgia pura!
A 215mph Testarossa? Puts the F40 to shame.
With no engine sounds at all, this port always felt a bit odd to me.
Q JOGO NOSTÁLGICO DA PORRA ❤❤❤❤❤

If you really want to go to the effort you could factor the board and blow the rom onto a chip yourself. A bit of a project admittedly.
I think that Ps1 was and still is overall considerable superior (technically surpassed only the by Dreamcast),because the cd media was finally well exploited with better compressed mpg1 fmv compared to Sat (that on the contrary has a memory expansion slot and mem carts never seriously exploited).
In the switch version they replaced the car because Ferrari wants money.
For the first one, Sega never got any backing from Ferrari and it concerned Sega out of fear that they would be sued by the car manufacturer.
