アウトラン
"OutRunners" is the fourth game in the "Out Run" series, following "Battle Out Run" and "Turbo Outrun". After "Turbo Outrun"'s departure from "Out Run"'s laid-back, charming atmosphere, fans wanted a game that captured the spirit of the original. "OutRunners" succeeded in doing this; it brought back the ability to take different paths through forks in the road, returned to a lighthearted atmosphere, and distanced itself well from the "serious" "Turbo Outrun". The game featured head-to-head support, and with enough cabinets, up to eight players could challenge each other. It was also the only game in the "Out Run" series to feature various selectable cars and multiple endings until "OutRun 2". "OutRunners" was the most successful game released for Sega's System Multi 32 hardware, and one of the last successful 2D games released by Sega. "OutRunners" was also known for having some of the best looking graphics seen at the time, thanks to creative sprite design and a very skillful use of parallax scrolling, similar to that found in Power Drift, released four years earlier. The game holds up very well today, and plays very similarly to a modern polygon based 3D racer, something not common in a racing game that utilises 2D graphics.
