The Ultimate Out Run Comparison (20 Systems)

[@Lucasrainford]

Haha can't believe you remembered that comment! 3 years that!? Holy shite! Your narration has improved loads m8, deffo. Anyway! Out Run comparison remake! This is much better imo! It's a classic game and I liked your og one so thought I'd do a patreon request as it was a good candidate for a remake using your new edits and improved VO. Mixed bag here, yeah, Amiga was a travesty! Sad that, deffo had the power. Some great ports here for sure, what came 1st last time? My memory fails me, I want that Saturn port! looks cool, Kronos is a good Saturn emu. Great vid m8! thanks for the vid

3ds came first...well the arcade really cos it was a different format, i love outrun so has been a treat for me to redo

[@Lucasrainford]

@@oldstylegaming Really digging the side by side comparison but it'd been great to have let the games run longer, 10 more seconds or so, instead of cutting so many short, a lot of us will never have the time to check these out first hand.

Hello, the Cannonball version is a 100% reliable interpretation of the original arcade rom (except of course the improvements and fixed bugs he introduced), that is, it is the game with 100% accuracy in relation to the original, for this reason no it is an emulation. This kind of work M2 studio also does.

[@Barcrest]

Yeah it is the arcade version with the bugs from the arcade fixed. So you dont end up with half a column over the road if you go left for the second stage.

[@gamernaut8864]

The Japanese Sega Saturn version is the best in my opinion. It has both the Japanese and the Overseas version of the arcade game, the original and remixed soundtracks, and a hidden 60 fps mode. It is also compatible with the Arcade Racer steering wheel or the Saturn Mad Catz wheel with pedals and a shifter. Awesome game.

[@adamkane7513]

I bought the Arcade racer wheel to play Sega Rally decades ago. I would have loved to have played Out Run on it back in the day.

[@EricBarbman]

Same for me. The Saturn version was one of the games I ended playing most, consistently, through the years... This port had a magical power, its charm would never wear off.

[@jamesbarker5535]

The PAL version also ran at 60fps. Just needed to switch to Japanese mode.

[@cessnaace]

After playing the Arcade original loads the first port that I bought was for the Sega Master System. In fact it was that game that pushed me to buy an SMS before buying an NES. Years later I imported a Japanese SMS, and Out Run was one of the first games that I bought for it.

[@ralang999]

Nice work! I didn't know the history behind the two C64 ports. And yeah, I expected way better music from the MD port when it came out

[@mr.y.mysterious.video1]

Interesting fact... the arcade game runs at 30fps instead of the usual 60 due to hardware limitations, I know at least one of these later versions beats that and runs the arcade style graphics but at 60 FPS. Not sure which

[@needhambunch]

The Saturn version can run it at 60fps!!! And it is GREAT...honestly!!!

[@robertdaone]

The Sega Saturn version to me was the only one that looked exactly and was true to the original arcade game. I still have my Saturn and love playing Sega Ages which includes. Outrun, Afterburner and Space Harrier and they all look just like the arcade.

@Stefano Pavone ha ha I remember asking my dad for the saturn for Xmas as the magazine I read stated both the Sega saturn and the Sony PlayStation are equal to and as good as each other, both will be around for many years to come.. That magazine got it so wrong as I realised less than a year later when I sold it and got a PlayStation

[@BakkerSamuel]

I wish galaxy force on Saturn was also arcade perfect……….

[@MAuro1973ful]

@Stefano Pavone mi sembra un po' riduttivo giustificare l'aquisto del Sega Saturn a solo questi 3 giochi, anche se sono tre giochi eccezionali,ti cito alcuni titoli che meritano,Space Harrier 2, After Burner 2, Nights Dreams,Guardian Heroes,Panzer Dragoon saga, giusto per rimanere nell'ambito Arcade 😁

Looking forward to the next video so as always take it easy and take care🙂

[@SteveBrandon]

If I think about it, the only version of OutRun I ever had until the mid-2000s was the Sega Master System version. I remember going to downtown Montreal with my mother and siblings when I was around 14 and being able to play the arcade version one time (for just a few minutes, and I was crap at it) but, to this day, it's the only time I've played the arcade version in the arcade with arcade controls. I would've loved to have gotten the Genesis version of OutRun but I never saw it in stores. In 2006, I got the Playstation 2 "remake" of OutRun in the Sega Classics Collection (which I bought primarily for Virtua Racing) and I might have liked it more if I hadn't already bought OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast with modern gameplay, stellar graphics, and the full Ferrari license a couple of months earlier. Ignoring the lack of the Ferrari license in the OutRun "remake" (although I wish they'd have made the car at least look closer to the one in the already de-Ferrari-ed Dreamcast version), my big issue with it is that the car is a little too wide on the screen and the viewpoint is a touch too low so the car blocks more of your view of oncoming traffic compared to either classic OutRun or OutRun 2006. These days, if I want to play the original OutRun, I basically have the arcade perfect version with the unaltered Ferrari Testarossa sprite as a bonus on OutRun 2 on the XBox. Even if I want to play the Sega Master System version, I have to just play a ROM since my Master System hasn't worked in years. I might just get one of those Master System cartridge adapters for the Genesis eventually.

[@m0nde]

Great comparison, I love the side-by-side format.

I never knew about the Amiga sprite swap so that was interesting to see, I will have to try out Cannonball for sure!. Great video.

[@nomadjock]

I had this on the C64 and the Master System but I preferred the Master System version. I found the raster bar effect going across the whole width of the screen very annoying on the C64. My memory is a little hazy but I think the C64 version came in this oversized cassette box and included a tape of the arcade soundtrack as well.

[@Larry]

They even screwed up the Amstrad tape version at launch, the first batch of tapes released had the audio on the B side accidentally put on in reverse!!!

Wow, I never knew before that the Gal Passenger was an abusive person... :O Also, I had a Sega Saturn as a Kiddo, but this is the first time I ever knew that a Sega Saturn version of any game made it to 1st Place! Congrats Sega Saturn! :D

[@ltdrak]

Interesting that you mention the amiga mirroring the car in corners. The Saturn and arcade versions (and maybe others) do this as well. If you look closely you see the horse emblem's head switch from side to side. Of course not as blatant as also shifting the people in the car ;)

[@oldstylegaming]

Yeah the arcade does that i think its on purpose though and all the yu susuki versions do but there is no chance the Amiga version is on purpose thats just shocking

[@AvexFuddle]

I didn’t think many people liked the game boy advance version, but I really liked it.

[@onlineamiga]

The Amiga community hated the amiga version too. I was surprised to see it far up the list, because we all knew that the Amiga was capable of so much more. You can forgive some of the older 8 bit systems but the Amiga was technically capable of almost matching the arcade.

[@AzrialAlaria]

ZX Spectrum games always look like those Tiger handheld LCD games.

[@ZxSpectrumplus]

There is one more thing about the Sega Saturn version. You can run it in 60fps mode. Go to the "Option" menu and point your cursor to the Game Mode. Then hold down "A+B" (if running on emulator, it will depends on your joypad) and press LEFT or RIGHT either direction a few times. If done correctly, you will see a few more options like Japan(Smooth) and Overseas(Smooth). If you don't see it, your A+B button combo is wrong and try other buttons combo on your controller. I am playing the Japanese version (with better music option). The controller i am using is 8bitDo Pro 2 and my button combo is "B+RIGHT Shoulder" running on Retrobat.

[@technickuk]

Great video, OSG. Nice idea to have the arcade version running on screen to provide a comparison. My only critique is that the Amstrad version wasn't last. 😉

I'm surprised the C64 versions got so high up - the graphics are clunky and there are no junctions! Still, when you see the two-dimensional lorries in the DOS version and the terrible Amstrad incarnation it is at least a little more playable. The SID tunes are very good too. These days if I want an Outrun fix I go for Coast to Coast on Xbox.

[@lasskinn474]

dos games advanced a lot between like 1988 and 1992. also the dos version of outrun wasn't that smooth on 8mhz. if they(or competent devs) had done it around 1992 instead for 386 it could've been almost arcade perfect music and all.

[@leeboy2k1]

Cool video, but objectively Cannonball is the best. it not only bug fixes some of the Arcade one's SEGA missed, it has the widescreen that the Switch version has, and a couple of never seen before camera angles,but most importantly it has 120fps without breaking the game logic, and once experienced, much the same the Saturn's 60fps made the arcade hard to go back to, 120fps makes it feel like the game it was always meant to be.

[@oldstylegaming]

maybe mate, but nostalgia has to play a part somewhere along the lines...but yeah the Windows version of Cannonball is everything it should have been and supports force feedback

[@paulbollocks1999]

Can't argue with the number one slot! Awesome version.

[@GXSCChater]

Great video now I have to hear the saturn soundtrack! I love all the extras of the 3ds version especially the unlockable tuner options that change the color of your car. The switch version is more of a 3ds port, but it removes the rotating arcade cabinets like the 3ds version, but its great to have it on the switch, im sad there is no super hang on the switch.

[@playbookshowme484]

I had the master system with light gun, OutRun was my 1st game demanded! XD sooo killer! (best music ever in a game to this day)

[@musicmaniacsgamingandmovies]

Love this video! I have been following you for a long time, and your first OutRun video is one of my favorite ones on YT. So this re recording is even higher on my fav list! I agree close to 100% on the order of things. I would make one small change, due to personal preference: At 3 would be the 3DS version: I love the 3D effect, and minus the car change, the 60 fps and conversion are done perfectly! the only down fall for me is due to the hardware: The analogue disc (i would not dare call this a analogue stick, as it's not high up for smooth control) feels so wrong (not only with OutRun, but with all games) that i prefer using the Dpad, making the control feel a bit twitchy, and watching a replay of me racing trough easy corners looks just silly this way. It also just feels off to me. At 2 would be the Switch conversion: Yes, i miss the 3D effect, but the Oled screen with popping colors and bigger size makes up for that. Combine this to the briliant feel of the analogue stick (on the Sega Saturn 3D pad in analogue mode, i have to arcgh the stick to mimick using a steering wheel and get smoother controll) while in the Switch (yes, also the non OLED version) conversion, you do not need to arch the stick, as it's so smooth in this game, you can just use left/right movement and still make a smooth easy corner looking and feeling like you use a steering wheel. At 1, just like you, the Sega Saturn version. Playing this game on a high end tube tv, using the 3D knights into dreams gamepad, just feels like a trip down memory lane, playing in the arcade. Add the proper Ferrari Testarossa and the remixes of the famous OutRun tunes, and a unlockable 60 fps version (In the Japanese version of OutRun on Saturn) and you have a winner! It took Sega exactly 10 years to give us a proper OutRun port for playing at home (1986 arcade - 1996 Sega Saurn) and i am STILL happy playing this conversion. Would not want to miss it, as i would even rather give back the Playstation 5, than the Sega Saturn for that reason alone 😛 Thanks for sharing this brilliant video. Thumbs up!

[@satan3959]

My only complaint about the music on the C64 version is that the Passing Breeze tune is missing.

[@mariusmyhre7594]

I can still remember the shock of trying the C64 version of this game. It got quickly turned off after about 5 minutes. Owning both the Saturn (sega ages) as well as the 3DS version, it's difficult to pick a favourite. But yeah, the nostalgic in me would probably also go for the Saturn version.

[@JonnyJamesC]

The main thing that put me off about the Mega Drive versions is the layout of the stages. I always like it in my Out Runs when you go left and get the stone arches, even to this day the arcades stone arches take my breath away how large and fast they fly past you. I wonder why Sega don't release their old classics on PSN or even better PSVR with virtual deluxe cabinet included. They could bring all the super scalers out. I would love a copy of Out Run on my PS5. Thanks for the video.

[@richardslotboom9250]

The layout of the stages are from the Japan original

[@JonnyJamesC]

Yeah I was looking for a hack of the rom to put the European/USA layout in but i don't think it exists, only a colour changer hack to make it look more like the arcade. I do know on the Saturn version you can choose overseas layout which is a nice feature.

[@DrJ3RK8]

Nice video! So on the MSDOS thing. Aside from the various skills of whoever was involved in development and porting (hard to compare ANYONE to Factor 5, they're among the best of all time :D ), there was a HUGE range of hardware available both over time, and even at a given time. Outrun in your video appears to be an EGA game. EGA graphics are 16 static colors, no real hardware acceleration of any 2D functions (at least on your normal/average EGA adapter) and even an EGA setup was ridiculously expensive when it was new. A lot of people were still running monochrome PCs, or CGA (four color) machines. I was lucky enough to have EGA, but it was only really good for Sierra, Lucas, Origin type adventure games. Action games weren't great. When VGA became popular, there was a lot more competition in the hardware market, and you could eventually get good hardware for a decent price, and that is when 2D acceleration, large color palettes, etc. started happening. I'd say this was around 1990-1992 when things started getting interesting on DOS. Before that, I just stuck to my Amiga and C64. So any game that doesn't support true VGA modes, is going to be pretty horrible on DOS, unless it's an adventure or RPG game. There were a few exceptions, but that's the general rule. Commander Keen would be a good example of an action game running decently on EGA, but then that was id Software. (another greatest studio of all time) When Wolfenstein 3D hit, that was basically when the PC turned into a proper action gaming platform. Oh, side note, always check for setup.exe or config.exe etc. in the game folder on MSDOS games. Sometimes they don't support sound cards, or advanced graphics modes unless you set them up for it first. Not sure if Outrun supported Adlib, but FM sound would be far superior to PC Speaker. :D Second side note: While it's not Outrun-proper, and a bit silly as a modern racing game, my kids and I have played countless hours of Outrun 2006 on the PC. It plays a bit differently with all the drifting, but it has that same arcade speed and feel. Highly recommend it, even if it takes a little getting used to.

[@TheRetroRaven]

PC/Tandy release doesn't support FM either - but on a real Tandy (or in DOSBox) it supports Tandy-3-voice, which sounds really nice, makes the game quite enjoyable compared to the unplayable mess that is the Amiga and Atari ports.

Saturn Out Run definitely number one but with one provision..........it does not include the poorly converted PAL release.

So fun on the gba! I am a big amstrad fan but for me the amstrad version is the worst of all. (Note: i don't understand the allusion on the fanboy of the amstrad .There fanboy on all community and i don't think that a c64 or a speccy fanboy is less annoying. Fanboy are the cancer of the retrogaming.) Very good vidéo and have a good day.😉

I find the music of the Genesis version very good in fact, I disagree with you on that one!. Besides, it includes an exclusive new track for the console which is really cool!

Thank God the Saturn Version is Number 1, it is my most played version 👍🏻

The Ferrari Logo on the car still flips when you turn left or right. You would think they would have sorted that out!

I had a pirated copy of Outrun for the ST. Absolute cack.

Good comparison. The Amiga had all the potential but they ruined it. I didn't know about that "flip trick", lame. 🤦🏻‍♂️
