>Just curious, what's your favorite game?
Not sure if you mean within the BoF series or in general. Since I have not played any BoF game though, I'll just respond for general.
I don't know if I would call it my favorite, but OutRun is definitely the game I come back to most often. The very quick way into the game (boot, pick a song, you're on the road), and the very brief sessions (below 6 minutes, guaranteed) appeal to me. With a lot of games I "don't bother" firing them up, because I know I need minutes to get into the game, and hours to recover my mental context (where was I in the story? What equipment does my party have or need? What are their abilities? What combos did I use? My reactions are too slow, because I lack practice, etc.), so I end up just not playing them at all, which kind of sucks.
Also helps that OutRun is an entirely positive game. No enemies, no fight, no conflict, nothing. It's just you, your girl, your car, and the road, and I love that.
