It’s a shame we will only be getting the Outrun 2006 courses and not the original Outrun 2 ones due to Microsoft’s crappy download size limit. Here’s hoping for a track-pack later on. Oh and I hope that the scoreboards work properly this time too as in the Original Outrun 2 on the Xbox they were all messed up.

I’d like to see separate leader boards for Outrun class cars and normal class cars too, but I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Supposedly some of the Gameworks have DX cabinets but I have yet to see one at either of the two locations near me. (Indianapolis and Cincinatti).

- SP DX/SDX both ran on the Lindbergh board instead of the Chihiro which ran OR 2 and OR 2 SP.

- Instead of running at 640 X 480 like the other versions, DX/SDX both ran at the odd framerate of 800 X 480. It is an odd resolution but it does mean that the game ran in widescreen.

- DX actually had 2 seats and screens, SDX had 4. The odd thing is that both seats sat two people with two steering wheels. One player took over when the other screwed up. Not quite sure how it worked exactly but that looks like the major difference. As far as I can figure the courses themselves are the same as OR 2 SP.

- The game also had cameras that faced the players and a huge billboard that kept track of player stats in real time.

Overall not sure what to think. It sounds like graphically this will probably be pretty close to DX/SDX but gameplay wise more like SP, a shame really, that co-op sounds like if given as an option like a lot of fun.
