I'd rather have 5 perfect tracks than 20 shit ones.
Personally I hope the arcade version will have ~5 tracks with the home version having 3 versions of each track flavour with sections linking up ridge city style (if that makes sense).

I said this in the other F-Zero thread- if Sega can make F-Zero look this awesome then just imagine what Namco is cooking up for Star Fox
Namco doesn't have that experience in the rail shooter feild. Not that I think their ill equipped, but it's not luck that had F-Zero shape up like this. I think F-Zero was almost a sure thing.
Please note: That was completely sarcastic. Daytona is no doubt the peak of the genre.Originally posted by Yoshi
Yep. The best racing game of all-time sucks.

Blah. Daytona USA sucks, and Daytona for the Dreamcast was a fucking embarrassment. I cant believe Sega actually allowed that piece of shit to be shrinkwrapped and sold. Even if you like Daytona, you have to admit that that game was an abomination.Originally posted by Yoshi

Daytona USA and the Dreamcast version were excellent IMO although I like the sequel a lot more.

If I had an N64 I certainly would. Maybe one day...Originally posted by Videodrone
GO BUY IT NOW!!! gs's and eb's sell it for like $6-$7 used...easily one of the top ten on the system...one of my top ten favorite racers of all-time...
As for all this Daytona bashing... *gasp*.... Daytona is the game that got me back interested in racing games. I had grown board with them.. but then when I got Saturn it came with Daytona (in the 3 pack)... I was not even expecting to like it or anything.. but holy crap. I quickly became addicted and now racing games are one of my favourite genres. I recently played it again - it had been a long time - and the magic is still there. It's a great great great game in my opinion and I am forever thankful I got it for free so that I gave it a chance.
All this reminds me, I need to buy the Dreamcast version one of these days...
I think that's why I like Sega Rally 1 more than Sega Rally 2. I would not say that SR2 is "shit", but it's kinda lacklustre and not perfect like the first game.Originally posted by Sidez

That's one of the things I love about old games. Because there were more limitations and the games were shorter sometimes they were more finely tuned and perfect. I think Sega Rally and NiGHTS into Dreams are good examples of this. They're both short games.. but they have near infinate replay value because they are perfect and always fun to play. They never get old...
I can't comment on the Daytona comparision yet becuase I don't have the DC one yet.
*spit!*
I was exaggerating to make a point. I'm just tired of paying 50$ for ultra-short games, and judging by their history, Sega is more likely to produce a short game than Nintendo is, had they decided to develop the new F-zero themselves.just like every other F-Zero game.
Yeah, and I'd rather have 20 perfect tracks than 5 perfect ones. A game can have lots of replay value AND decent lenght. Or, I would also be content to pay 20$ for 5 perfect tracks. But that's not going to happen.I'd rather have 5 perfect tracks than 20 shit ones.
It was a lazy port, sure, but the source material is so strong it's not a big deal.Originally posted by diffusionx

You are absolutely right. I hate that game down in the cochles of my heart.Originally posted by diffusionx

Why even worry about f-zero having only 5 tracks? F-zero X is notorious for having a shitload of regular tracks(i can't think of a game with more) and then the track generator for an unlimited amount. You could even make your own tracks in the 64DD version. There is no way Nintendo would let SEGA pull a SEGA by including only a few tracks.

that ain't no joke.
If you want another Daytona get the JSaturn CCE.
The Dreamcast game only looks like Daytona.
*most dissapointing game ever*
..but if you want I'll mail you my mint copy for $20
