Outrun 2 - Scud Race tracks 4K (Xbox 360)

  • Good news everyone! It looks like the issue I was having of uploading video in 4K and all the options under 4K not appearing seems to have resolved. To celebrate this fact here's some footage of the bonus Scud Race tracks from the original Xbox version of Outrun 2 being upscaled into 4K.
    OK, don't get too excited here, this isn't new footage - I think I've used this particular video before as part of a split-screen comparison. It's always bugged me though how UA-cam has always really badly degraded my 1080p uploads of these tracks in the past, so I thought why not take advantage of the superior 4K VP9 codec to get some beautiful crystal clear footage.
    This is my UK version of OG Xbox Outrun 2 being played on my 360. The 360 upsclaes it into 720p. I've then further upscaled it into 4K in video rendering.
    After the 1st race I've added in some footage of me playing this course on one of my softmodded OG Xboxs. Again, it's not new footage and it's definitely NOT in HD. I can only do video capture from my OG Xboxs via a SD SCART cable, hence the poor quality. Again though, I thought it was worth adding in at the end here, just to highlight the diffrence bewteen the Japanese and Western versions of these bonus tracks.

    The Scud Race tracks were an awesome and appreciated gift. I was so excited when I fist encountered these. Love the tunes so much! SEGA!

      They certainly were. I'd actually owned the game for ages without actually realising they were in there back in the day, because I hadn't really played the mission modes (and I'd moved on to Coast 2 Coast by that point} . I was actually just randomly surfing the Internet on a night shift in the job I was in at the time when I discovered it. Needless to say after that, my shift couldn't finish soon enough so I could get home and try them...

      I noticed some fps drops here and there. Else it was a delight to see these Scud Race tracks. However they don't appear as vibrant and crisp as the Model 3 version, possibly due to a different lightning model or colour pallette perhaps?

      @@ark9515 The frame rate drops seem to be something that happens when you play the game on 360 (the OG Xbox version of Coast 2 Coast seems to fair better in this regard on 360). I think the visual differences between this and the actual Scud Race tracks can be put down to the fact that they're running in 2 totally different game engines. Also, Outrun 2 is already packed with a lot more content, so some compromises were probably made to these tracks.

      Thanks man. Yeah, I'm glad it's finally sorted. I actually upgraded to Fibre Broadband this week, so I can actually finally watch my own videos in 4K. Also, it's reduced my upload times by such a massive amount it's unreal. This 4K video file would've taken me about a day to upload previously. I uploaded it tonight in under 10 minutes.

      Yup, it's a shame Sega never made an ultimate version with all the content and best bits from each version, back when they still had the Ferrari license.

    me pregunto porque sega y sumo digital habran eliminado los niveles de scud race en outrun 2006 coast to coast... si la ps2 puede manejarlos, siempre y cuando se usen ambas vector units (para mejorar la velocidad de cpu). p.d: me encantaria ver outrun 2/coast to coast en Dreamcast algun dia

      I wonder if they just ran out of space on the disc to fit those extra stages in on top of the extra 15 SP stages.

    Been playing a lot of Outrun 2 lately, looks great in 480p! It's a blast to play! How do you unlock the SCUD Race and Daytona USA 2 track though?

    • @MrThunderwing
      @MrThunderwing  5 років тому +1

      You need to beat Missions 4 and 6 respectively for the Scud Race and Daytona tracks. There are codes you can enter in the gallery mode to cheat and unlock them too, but they don't stay unlocked when you next play the game that way. If you check the GameFAQS website it tells you all the codes.

      If you're playing a PC based Outrun game, it's not this game, which is Outrun 2 on Xbox. If you're playing Outrun 2006 Coast 2 Coast, you have to earn Outrun miles by playing the game. You can the use these to buy cars, music and courses in the Outrun shop.

      @@MrThunderwing My original xbox that's modded has HD and I use the official HD component box. Outrun 2 looks great on it in 720p. I do use the HDMI pound cable now and then but it's not as good as the official HD component box. There is a way to make the resolution even better though by using the hdmi pound cable and running it through the M cable. The M cable is a bit expensive though £100+ but it has antilasing and smooths out all the jagges. You will need the hdmi pound cable because its the only one that splits to plug in the M cable. Hope this helps but check out Adam Koralik's channel on this subject, he's shit hot on it and loves the original Xbox.
