Outrun 2 - JPN Scud Race tracks with Traffic (HD Capture via Component Cables)
0Some more far better quality (than my previous composite cable capture) 480p HD video of the Japanese bonus stages in Outrun 2 running on my softmodded original Xbox, via Elgato HD Component capture.
This time I've turned the number of rivals down to one, but I've turned the traffic option on. Normally when doing a VS Rivals race I tend to use MT for it's faster gear drifting. However, in order to do a full speed gear drift, you need to be going at least 150mph-ish, otherwise it doesn't work (unless you drop down to 4th and then go 4-3-4) and with all the other vehicles on the road it makes minor collisions and speed loss very hard to avoid, so I find it's just easier to stick with Automatic for a traffic run. It always amuses me to see all the regular Outrun traffic on the these Scud Race stages, seeing coaches and tankers and the like going through the Dolphin Tunnel and the Aztec Ruins.
The Japanese version of Outrun 2 on the Xbox is a lot more accurate to the arcade original version of Scud Race. There are some significant differences between this version and the western version.
□ The sailing ship from Scud Race's 'Beginner Day' stage was missing in the Western versions. It's been added back in here
□ You've now got planes flying overhead in the 'Beginner Night ' stage part of the course, like in the arcade version of Scud Race. The planes on the ground have also been given a new lick of paint and are multi-coloured rather than the plain white ones in the EU and US versions of Outrun 2. There's also a plane on the ground on the second to last corner, the right-hand turn, that's also not in the Western versions.
□ The torches, in the 'Advanced Stage' where you go through the tunnel with the big U turn, are now properly lit, unlike the Western version. There's also a bit as you leave that stage area that has a wall with a big hole in it the Western versions. In the Japanese version there's a big idol head type thing, like in the actual Scud Race track.
