Better eyes than me, seems the hud is stretched. Actual game is proper widescreen though. -
Check out the water effects and draw distance! It really is a beauty to behold in high res 60fps.Comment

Nice in some ways, but not in others... The HUD looks awful, surely SEGA had some original high-res assets available?!Originally posted by Shakey_Jake33
And the high-res display is bringing out some problems in the scenery, such as bleeding on the distant mountain transparencies.
Still good overall, just not quite perfect.Comment

I'll definately say the high resolution does make the various flaws stand out more... the low resolution of the HUB being the most striking. As I mentioned before, the menu's are also low resolution, which means it's the first thing you see when you fire the game up.
I can live with it, it's hardly something to get too worked up about... it's just a shame.
The low resolution of the textures themselves (and the backgrounds) are no-ones fault - they ARE the arcade textures, and the arcade game wasn't HD. But to be honest, the game still looks gorgeous regardless.
Can't wait to see a new Outrun designed as HD from the ground up.
Not played too much with the online mode yet, but it seems very well implemented. Looks like they've attempted to immitate Live, you basically make an account (which keeps track of your online progress etc), and the functionality is what you'd see in a Live game. Very nice.Last edited by sj33; 22-06-2006, 06:56.Comment

I'll be sticking with PS2/PSP (mainly PSP).. that doesn't look nice enough for me to consider upgrading my PC.
The one thing that really bothers me is the missing moon from Milky Way on PSP ; ;
Has that been fixed in any of the other region versions?Comment

having problems with this on my pc, graphics keep breaking up making it unplayble. I suspect its my pc being crap and overheating though.Comment

Yup - sounds like your PC getting too hot. Take the side of the case off
Enjoying it then?

you can edit the music by replacing your own tracks with the games tracks, they have to be in .ogg format and have the same filename as the track you replaced. when you select the music in the game it plays a preview of the old track but it changes when you go in game.Comment
-
That's true, if you are feeling really flash you can also change the preview music to match - as they're in the same place.
Probably not so straight forward to change the graphics though :P

Took a few high res pictures while playing, 1360 x 768.
Picture 1
Picture 2
Picture 3
Some quality is lost due to compression of the photos but seriously the game looks very nice in higher resolution.
I personally don't even notice the hud while playing so thats not a problem, the cars and scenery look ace.Comment

It was indeed, took the case of and the graphics card was that jobbed up with dust the fan wasn't going round at all! Fine now. Except the sounds seems to cut out whenever I hit brake.. My pc is crap!Originally posted by S0LYup - sounds like your PC getting too hot. Take the side of the case off

Top game. Goes nicely with PSP version.Comment

Sorry to stray off-topic, but I'm gonna get a 360 pad to play this game - is the PC wireless dongle to use the wireless 360 pads expected any time soon, or shall I just get a wired controller tomorrow?Comment
-
Is there any word on a Japanese release for this yet?Comment
-
Clogged up fan - ouch! Always best to open them up and clean all the dust out of them now and again
No idea when the 360 pad dongle is out - but the game does work with the wired 360 pad (we used them for testing - I'd recommend it as a good pad for the game).
No news yet on the Japanese versions - it's potentially in the works, but you'll probably have a fair wait on your hands.

Any chance of a code to unlock the PSP/PS2 content now.
Seeing as all the formats are released now as well..... ah go on!
