Outrun but Space Harrier is definitely top 5

Splash Wave > Magical Sound Shower > Passing Breeze

I don't particularly have a favorite route but I love the look of Cloudy Mountain just that one part where you are driving down that straight away surrounded by trees with tons of clouds in the sky.

Outrun > Rally > Daytona > the rest

But honestly what >>4177672 said "Outrun isn't a racing game, it's a driving game" so it shouldn't count.

>Favorite arcade games of the 80's?
Well this was easy.

>Why is this game so good?
It's hard without being unfair, very addictive, goat soundtrack, great theme, multiple endings, and still looks fantastic for a game that came out in '86.

>Is there a best route in OutRun, in terms of time/score?

I once read online that the best route for a high score is Devils Canyon, Alps, Wheat Field, and finally Autobahn. Not sure how true that is tho.

Search your heart. You know it's true.

Found it.

"Sega did not consult Ferrari over the inclusion of the Testarossa in game, and would later meet in court several times over the matter. It is assumed a deal was reached as the car has never been modified for any future releases, and in fact, Ferrari have gone as far officially sponsor several racing games, starting with F355 Challenge (also designed by Yu Suzuki) and OutRun 2 and its derivatives. Other cars on the road appear to be a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle, a 1971 Chevrolet Corvette, a 1985 Porsche 911, a 1985 BMW 325i Cabriolet E30 and a generic truck."

Is it racing if your just racing against the clock?

>how do you pick your route?
Near the end of the stage the road forks and you either veer left or right which takes you on a different path :^)

I usually have my route already picked out before I start depending on which ending I'm shooting for.
