Out-Run Turbo is the sequel to the legendary arcade driving that caused a sensation in the arcades 3 years earlier. Like all sequels, the game was to incorporate a number of innovations that we will detail. But equally, it is the same: the Ferrari is the girl too and we must travel the U.S. to milk all arriving in time to each checkpoint.
Before going into detail, I must comment that I will refer to a greater extent and in my experience, the domestic version of the video game released for the Sega Mega Drive (and hence retain the cartridge) that it was still the same but with the graphical limitations, sound and sensation of speed that often lead to such conversions. Similarly, it was a video game that I played a lot and since there was no game modes and much more to do than play a game of a lifetime, it squeezed. There was in fact more conversions for the platforms of the moment.
In the beginning we started poorly: no selector of tunes to accompany us on our journey, the mythical radio, mecachis. Well, nothing, the girl we better, we thought. It shows a U.S. map, we'll have to cross from one side to another in our ferrari, and we see how we can choose the automatic and manual. We always opted for the automatic and let us complications.
started the game in New York, we fasten our seatbelts, and paste the sprint and we meet with several new features over its predecessor: the bottom of the screen we see a bar that used to turbo it, give it more speed our car. If Out Run and was a fast game now with the turbo can paste accelerations life to save us and make us reach the checkpoints before we run out of time. Of course, the turbo was its limited nature, is heating up with overuse and we had to wait to use it if it abusábamos, but gave to a lot. So now we had a turbo button to add the other 2, but the game was essentially still the same, but the fire coming out of our car was amusing to show off.
Then we realize that we came out of nowhere the police and hinders us a while trying to block us out of our way or the highway. Let's say it goes a step beyond the trucks or vehicles that you can normally hit: now there is a car thoroughly annoys you and what better to put the police as our enemy to give a hint of risk and excitement adventure. For this reason, the cops from time to time appears to touching the eggs, but nothing more.
Okay, now let's get it all. The game consisted of 16 stages, 16 cities to go through at full speed and every 4 had an intermediate stage, where even left a band playing and all (¿?)- where we could tune our car. Perfect, because it gave us escocger between high-grip tires, a more powerful engine and a special turbo cool more quickly. Of course, this is all very well when you know the stages ahead, but first change your pick at random what you will use. Hence it was amusing replayability and find combinations depending on what comes best to each phase conujunto. Also I must say that those mythic Run Out forks have disappeared here and there will be different routes. A shame because this, together with the turbo and the car set-up would have increased the possibilities of the game.
Most importantly, this game really had a rival: a white Porsche 911 racing us to see who was coming before the goal, to Los Angeles. This was curious, because each intermediate (in 4 stages) had a sink and if our opponents came before us was taking the girl and saw how the girl left our car to get to yours. Even then, if for example we got the following intermediate before us than the Porsche, the recuperated and came to our car. I was curious the matter and already incorporated the bottom with a rival and the fact of trying to reach our ultimate goal girl, that's what it was.
Turbo Out Run is not a bad game and the 16-bit version of Sega was apañadita. Has more grace the arcade but I fear that despite the news did not reach the level of excellence of its predecessor. Forks and the melodies are insustituiobles ... However, it is a game that now it should rescue emulators, a somewhat forgotten sequel but with its crumb and the grace to not only be on time for each phase, but to compete directly with a Porsche. Graphically apañadito and made with care, fun, the end of the day. A good sequel.
That was the game: Arcade
