The more realism the less charm and imagination . The wonderful thing about games is that you can escape from reality and enter another reality that is different . This was always the case with the older games . With today’s soulless super realistic games all your doing is escaping one reality to enter pretty much the same reality that you already live so all the imagination, all the fantasy , all the charm and all the magic that makes you feel good in your heart vanishes. It’s just a simulation . Numb
I spent all of my highschool years playing Sega Rally 2 with friends on Saturday nights, after a movie at the local theater. Trying to beat our records, having fun mocking our driving and the quirks of the dead old cabinet which was slowly falling to pieces, suddenly pulling the handbrake to ruin each other's attempts or exploiting the secret cheat code that gave you the Delta and the Celica. Sadly, the arcade side of the place shut down two years ago due to a fire. I'll always have fond memories of this game, a true gem
Sega are completely out of touch with what people want and have been for a long time they just keep releasing the same old megadrive collection when they have one of the best back catalogues going it's such ashame
@@philipkempbell7174 I have seen footage from the real arcade cabinet, and I don't see any noticeable changes, aside from the things I already mentioned. What do you think is different about it? ua-cam.com/video/jAEZ__88KZk/v-deo.html
@@KojiThomas It’s not just the setting. The circuit layout is a shortened version of the Monaco GP circuit, as if from Sainte Devote you’d take a shortcut to Tabac. It then features corners clearly inspired by the swimming pool chicannes, Rascasse and Anthony Noghes.
This is was the greatest car arcade of all time along with Daytona. I’m 38 and still play this when I see a arcade machine , unfortunately they are almost extinct .
StealthVette you sir was lucky to live through SEGA’s arcade domination like myself. Anyone old enough to play arcade games in 98 will never know the feeling of playing these SEGA games in 91/96. What a time to be alive.
I still have ONE arcade of this on my local mall. Yeah it's this SAME exact version as well and the SAME machine that I've played on 11 years ago. This kind of gave me the incentive to play it again heck, i was really young that time when i played, I couldn't even get past medium corners properly
I just realized that at the Desert stage the cars are all specially prepared (graphically) like they were for the Safari rally with the bullbar and the snorkel intake. Amaizing to think that was 1998!
I can remember everyone just being blown away by the graphics on this game. Nothing came close at the time. Seeing it today the graphics still hold up 20 years later! Unbelievable 🔥
I would love to see a remastered collection of arcade games like these Sega Rally, Scud Racer, Virtua Racing, F355 Challenge etc. Nice bright colours, original handling. Still praying for a remastered Ridge Racer series 😔
Pure gameplay satisfaction from a game in a bit more than five minutes! You need talent for that. Really a masterpiece for giving such a full experience in such a short amount of time. Well done Sega!!!
i remember people standing around this machine back in the day with their jaws hanging .. Sega where masters of arcade racers just check out virtua formula .
@@seriousstuff8887 Because Sega programmed the game using the Dreamcast's built in OS - Windows CE, instead of hitting the hardware directly. Apparently though, the Japanese version of SR2 on the Dreamcast runs slightly smoother.
We used to have this arcade cabinet at my work, sadly we had to retire both of them due to low revenue. They were really cool, they had full motion and steering feedback. Thankfully I got to keep all the arcade boards, so maybe someday I can get them working again. Really cool to see this game in HD!
@@wibs0n68 yeah I think I found it before, but I want to get the seat movement working again, it was really fun. Hopefully I can hook it up to a modern seat.
Played this game so much on my old laptop that when i got a proper gaming oc this was the first game i played on it. It is simply incredible to play this game in ultrawide at a proper 60fps
I remember a few years ago going to the arcade and playing nothing but Sega Rally. It was right next to Daytona USA. One day I hurried in, sat down, put my tokens in, looked up at the screen, and found that the machines had been replaced with another set of Daytona USA. Don't think I could have been more heartbroken! I dream of one day owning a man-cave with an original Sega Rally arcade system.
Yeah... With time, people look for something new, and realistic. The thing about racing simulation game today is that they don't any much feature other than racing and winning. No reward.
Since 2017 i used play this with my best friend almost every time we hang out. There was a mall with a small amusement "park" section which had this game on a machine. It was dope. And also this mall was near our homes too so it was like our thing. We must have spent a lot of money on these machines 😂... But in 2020 when everything shot down because of the pandemic, the amusement park section closed. And recently they reopen it but as a new play section... sadly the Sega Rally 2 wasn't there anymore :( But i wil always cherish the memories of us playing this! Forever grateful 💙
LOVED this game back in the day! You’re clearly a veteran, wheels on the grass entering the hairpins on mountain, and the wall turns in the hairpins on riviera. I spent a fortune trying to beat the 4 minute barrier, finally did it after a few years then “retired” 😂 especially when the mad Japanese dudes (most of which had a machine in their house! 🙄) were doing 3,56:xx times!!! Was never gonna beat that!
I remember playing this in a sit down version in my local bowling alley ,ive always liked this game ,it was okay on dreamcast too but the experience of the sit down arcade version with steering wheel was just the best ,cmon sega give us this remastered
I know this is an older video but just came across it after going down a retro arcade game rabbit hole. I remember being blown away by this game in the arcade when it came out; especially with the graphics and the handbrake - my teenage self was wondering "how do you even use this?!". Looking at it with older eyes, wow - how far games have come. It's a shame every arcade these days is just filled with essentially gambling games for tokens rather than what I remember - but it's not like I'm the target demographic any more. Still, good times and great memories from back in the day. Cheers for uploading footage of skills I never was able to master back in the day - that Snowy stage is always where I crapped out 👍🏼
A Model 3 Step 2.0 board powered this game. The board was released in 1997 and had a PowerPC 603e CPU at 166MHz, and six Real3D Pro-1000 GPU units. By comparison, an ultra high-end PC at the time would have had a P2-300 with a Voodoo 1 GPU. That combo was roughly capable of running N64 like graphics at 30 to 60 FPS at 640x480. In other words, the Model 3 was much, much more powerful.
I miss the house music inspired music that the late 90’s racers had. Especially SEGA something was magical about 90’s and early 2000’s gaming you can just see it
dcta51 Wow it’s crazy I was thinking the same thing. Not many people will admit this. With the ps4 and the ps5 coming.. all I see developers doing is REALISM! Trying to make video games too much like real life. Who wants that. I miss fun colorful games with fun music that actually look low a video game. Instead of a trailer for a paramount pictures movie
Nice video. Saw guys in the arcade drive these stages FLAWLESSLY, with steering wheel and brake, clutch and gas pedal. Kicking the pedals twice or something to power-slide, making lots of noise.
There is one thing in this game that I would like to point out: Pacenotes. If I was rallying with these notes, I would deal with it fairly well. Okay, okay, they are rather simple, but for a late 90s game they are pretty detailed. Calls like "narrows", "opens" and "caution" come up surprisingly often, and they even tell you the distance to the next corner. The first Colin Mcrae Rally did not have that integrated, and that is two years newer if I recall correctly. V-rally series at the time did not implement it at all.
I am.plauimg dirt rally 2015 abd having a lot of fun, but when I play arcade like outrun is magical, suddenly rhe stress of sims go away and gaming skill apears again, arcades are so fun, I will play this game as soon as I finish outrun 2006
I am quite impressed with how SEGA RALLY 2 improved a little bit with how the graphics work! I mean, take one good look at how the cars look in the game, unlike the original SEGA RALLY game! It has the reflections on the windows of the cars. Even the textures in the game look a whole lot photo-realistic. I like that game! And it is a shame that SEGA had to take out the car battery and close the garage for good, and thus, cancelling the series altogether in 2011!
I first played this on a 2 player coin op in an arcade.. I later found a 1 player, fully hydraulic, ride on machine. Blew my mind. The handbrake was easily the best feature.. Pure magic this game.

The driving looks so satisfying.. man Arcade games had so much charm to it. Music, colorfull stages.. I miss this in the current console games.
The more realism the less charm and imagination . The wonderful thing about games is that you can escape from reality and enter another reality that is different . This was always the case with the older games .

Agreed! Sega is a master of this of getting the arcade balance and simulation perfect.
@@stealthcat100 But that doesn't mean it's gone all of this fantasy and physics,today there's emulators to still play these games on your PC
@@ReddSouljah i tried HCT. Game is OK, but honestly nothing spectacular. Not nearly as fun as Sega Arcade, Outrun, Screamer or old NFS games.
@@ReddSouljah Yes, boring game IMO.
Sega Arcade games have their own unique charm that others can not replicate.

Sega: nope
Nope all games companies don't seem to give a shit.
I just don't understand what are they doing. They sitting on a mine gold.
These graphics are amazing for 1998, over 21 years ago!
They are not the same graphics , it's using an emulator so it's normal ._.
@@-__--__ It's the beauty of Stable 60fps
It's played at a higher resolution than it was originally and in widescreen, but the graphics are otherwise unchanged.
This looks nothing the original, the video playback was nothing like this.

So... are we going to talk about the fact that the Riviera stage is HEAVILY inspired by the Monaco GP?
Riviera is inspired by the French Riviera and is base on "La promenade des anglais" at Nice. which not far from Monaco indeed.
Bello no?

There's 2 of these in Great Yarmouth; one in Joyland's Arcade and a four player set up at Wellington Pier.

This and Time Crisis 2 took all my money as a kid, and it was money well spent.
I love the way the photographers run off - that detail blew minds back in the day 😂
Nostalgia, nostalgia, nostalgia. I’ll probably never experience how amazing this was ever again
Go to Liseberg in Sweden. They have 4 of these there. And 4 Sega Rally 3.

Nintendo Switch has the remastered version of Virtua Racing, one of my favorites of all time.

Back in the days before simulators became a thing (arcade fun) I would play this, cruis'n usa and Daytona back then.. miss those days. Great video 👍👍👍
for some reason real to life graphics racers of today do not have the same charm nor the fun factor of bonified arcade games of yore.
6:55 When you lose but you can finally go to the bathroom

Massive Sega fan, and played this game to death on arcade and console. Still own my Dreamcast and games.
Dreamcast version is unfortunately trash. Supermodel is the only option
Emulador version os supreme
懐かしい！幼稚園の頃、叔父のドリームキャスト版にハマってやってました！
BGMが特徴的で子供の耳にも残りやすいんですよね〜笑

This looks good to be from so many years ago!
My most favourite racing game ever. Period.
That moment when you Cross the line and yells: FINISH!!! still give me goosebumps until this day
This was part of my childhood ! Years later i bought a lancer evolution 5rs and later an evolution 9 gsr!

One of the BEST sega games ever!!
Now...I see...this is Initial D 1,2 and 3 vibe...especially physics.
Had this for pc back in the day. Loved it .
PC and dreamcast versions are trash compared to the supermodel 3 version
Oh boy...15years later the last stage is a short track based in the Monaco GP circuit....
雪ステージの曲がおしゃれで好きだった。
It's in my feed but I'm happy. Thanks for the memories
I miss the house music inspired music that the late 90’s racers had. Especially SEGA something was magical about 90’s and early 2000’s gaming you can just see it
Absolutely. They need to bring some of it back, games are too serious nowadays and focus too much on realism.

I'm here for the snowy stage music
I know right was just saying that.
This is poetry!
After all the great Saturn arcade ports, it's a shame SEGA didn't put any effort into the Dreamcast versions of this and VF3.
I was thinking this looked so much better than my dreamcast version. Which is a shame considering they probably use the naomi board.
A company named Genki was responsible for porting Virtua Fighter 3 to the Dreamcast.
If Persona had a racing game, the music on the "Snowy" map is close to something you'd have heard in it.
If I could only find this game at my local arcade.
Rest assured many quarters will be well wasted on that afternoon.
Supermodel emulator its 99% perfect even up to 4k resolution also scud race and Daytona 2
Sega need to release all these arcade classics again easy money for them
Nice video. Saw guys in the arcade drive these stages FLAWLESSLY, with steering wheel and brake, clutch and gas pedal. Kicking the pedals twice or something to power-slide, making lots of noise.
yeah, usually they all drive the Peugeot since it's the fastest but I never managed to understand how they cope with that massive understeer
Nostalgia pura! Joga muito! Parabéns!
Quem tinha um Dreamcast era rico eim
Que nada
For 1998 this looks batshit insanely brilliant graphics
Sega Rally 1 was Epic and 2 was Intense too
i loved the dreamcast version captured those speedy turns
Woow this is so nice to watch 😊
Loving that the Game Over screen is the most replayed part. I really wish the Dreamcast version had played this well.
There is one thing in this game that I would like to point out: Pacenotes.
