Just trying to create some stupid thread. :)

Mine are,

Outrun 2SP

Outrun 2

Outrun

Outrunner

Turbo Outrun - Least favorite Outrun game, this is the only Outrun game that I score lower then a 9. I give it a 7, if it wasn't for the music, it would've probably been a 6 or lower.

OutRun2 is number one. I'm not as thrilled about SP as much as the other members on this board. I LOVE OutRunners, though. There's just something about that game... :) Those two are enough for me. :)

There were maybe 6 or 7 original OutRun games, so it's not a big pool to choose from:

1. OutRun 2006: Coast to Coast
2. OutRun 2
3. OutRun
4. OutRunners
5. Turbo OutRun

Coast to Coast has more tracks, duh, the Model 3 courses don't help the original that much anyway. I really didn't get the chance to play the latter 2, I played OutRun on Mame. OutRunners looks cool and I like the car selection, but the music seems awfully subdued. Like I'd rather listen to the OutRun versions, which is why I put it above 4 and 5. Turbo OutRun I think will most be remembered for its soundtrack. Not being able to take different routes hurt that game a bit.

You just picked Outrun 2SP in your top 2. :) Custom soundtrack is the only reason I favor the XBOX version over the arcade version.

I can see many people picking Outrun 2 over SP casue it was released first, but what makes it better in your opinion?? There's no slipstream in Outrun 2, no 15 course mode, no custom soundtrack etc.. It's slower then SP, also you get to play Outrun 2 with slipstream, 15 course mode and custom soundtrack in SP. :)

There's only 5 true Outrun games, I don't consider Outrun 2019 or Europa true Outrun games. Both suck by the way. :)

Because I absolutely HATE what AM2 did with the crashing in SP. You touch a car's rear and you slow down a tremendous amount. That's my big gripe. Now, this could mean that I just need more practice, but it downright pisses me off when that happens. I also didn't like the new courses anywhere near as much as I liked the originals. Slipstream is a plus. 15 course mode is fun. Custom soundtrack is okay, but now we're talking about OutRun2006, not SP (I should also mention that the custom soundtrack does not work properly on my copy of 2006, though I was told it may be my drive from a few people...) So, in other words, more doesn't necessarily mean better. OutRun2 all the way.

Well, you shouldn't be touching the car's rear. :D Did you enjoy how you slowed down in Outrun 2 when touching the grass? And how your car jumped by touching the other cars from the front during a drift?? Outrun 2SP fixed all of that. A beginner will have an easier time Outrun 2SP then with Outrun 2. I'm pretty sure most will agree Outrun 2SP is much easier.

The new courses are just as nice, if not better in my opinion.

Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast is Outrun 2SP, I know the home version included a few more dumb features but it's basically the same game. Custom Soundtrack is the only cool feature that is not included in the arcade version, and custom soundtrack comes with only the XBOX version.

If you're having problems with the custom soundtarck, you either have a bad copy or a bad harddrive.

So, in other words, more is better. :)

I just want to add, all the Outrun 2 courses is also in Outrun 2SP aka Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast. :)
