A driving game first to hit the arcades in 1986, OutRun amounts to a time-attack Speed Run. You, a manly man in his Ferrarinote specifically a 1986 Ferrari Testarossa convertible; later ports change it to something similar but legally distinct, start at the start line, and Race Against the Clock to a Checkpoint at the end of the stage. You are accompanied by a token female passenger, who presumably was attracted solely by the horsepower. Along the way, you must avoid other motorists and assorted roadside obstacles, lest you crash in a variety of entertaining ways. Just before that checkpoint, the road forks into two, and each fork will allow you to access a differently-themed area; generally, the right-facing path is more difficult than the left-facing one. Get through five stages, and you reach the finish line. Depending on the route you take (and the final stage you reach), you'll get Multiple Endings.The game was successful enough to get itself ported to the Sega Genesis (and pretty much everything else of the same generation as the Genesis), and spawned lots of sequels. They all follow the same formula, though several of them add an opponent to race against in addition to the clock and standard traffic.To date, the series goes as follows: OutRun (Arcade / Sega Master System / Sega Genesis / Game Gear / Sega Saturn / Nintendo 3DS / Nintendo Switch) 3D OutRun (Sega Master System) Turbo OutRun (Arcade / Sega Genesis) Battle OutRun (Sega Master System) - A deviation from the standard formula which is more a ram 'em up than a racing game. OutRun Europa (Sega Master System / Game Gear) OutRunners (Arcade / Sega Genesis) OutRun 2019 (Sega Genesis) OutRun 2 (Arcade / Xbox) OutRun 2 SP OutRun 2 SP SDX OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast (Xbox / PlayStation 2 / PlayStation Portable / Windows) OutRun 2 SP (Japanese PlayStation 2 version of OutRun 2006; unrelated to the arcade 2 SP) OutRun Online Arcade (Xbox Live Arcade and Play Station Network version of OutRun 2006)

comment
Vanity License Plate: The box-art above shows OutRun as the license plate. You'd think that number plate would catch the attention of the local police. OutRun 2 onwards followed a formula of MO (Modena, the Italian city where Ferrari is headquartered) followed by some letters and numbers referring to the car and/or its engine (MO 512 TR for the 5-liter, 12-cylinder powered Testarossa).

Multiple Endings
 OutRun (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: One of the first to implement this, in defiance of A Winner Is You prevalent in arcade games back then: Depending on the route you pick. Results can range from the driver (or the passenger) being given a trophy to the car just falling to bits. OutRunners has one ending for each tag team you pick, independent of the route. OutRun 2 returns to form with new endings rendered in 3D. And, true to form, they can be hilarious (especially routes A and E). Averted with OutRun 2019, which has only one ending, which is your car speeding under the backdrop of outer space instead of cities.

V8 Engine Noises
 OutRun (Video Game) / int_2a333642
comment
V8 Engine Noises: Every single Ferrari in OutRun 2 and its subsequent releases emit a NASCAR-like V8 engine note, not unlike the stock cars from Daytona USA. The problem? Not all of the cars in-game are powered by a V8 (There's the V6-powered Dino, and the V12-powered 365/4 Daytona and Enzo), and those that are V8 powered would not emit the same sound as an American V8 due to differences in the type of crankshaft used (Ferrari uses flat-plane crankshafts for their V8 engines. The typical American V8 engine, including those used in NASCAR, use a cross-plane crankshaft).

Mayincatec: The Legend stage in OutRun 2006 combines in one single place the Olmec heads in the state of Tabasco, the atlantes of Tula, Hidalgo, the Temple of Kukulcan in Chichén-Itzá, Yucatán, the Major Temple in the heart of downtown Mexico City, and the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacán just north from Mexico City; all these ruins are no less than 300 km apart from each other, and yet they appear mashed together in the same stage.

The "15-stage Continuous" mode in OutRun 2's derivatives. Running 15 stages in rearranged order doesn't take 15 minutes to finish if you're skilled however. But even for a Ferrari road car, this is tedious. And unlike Turbo OutRun, no pit stops were given.

Death is Cheap: Crashes are cheap. If you crash, the game resets you after a few seconds. Even if your car barrel-rolled several times and you were thrown out of it onto the asphalt and an obstacle car ran over your head. Just keep in mind that a couple of crashes is all you need to lose the game.

Arcade-Perfect Port: Technically, only two are exactly perfect: the Sega Saturn version in the "SEGA Ages" line, and the version included with the Xbox release of OutRun 2. Consoles released prior to the Saturn weren't powerful enough to perfectly emulate the game, while later ports, like the otherwise faithful 3DS and Switch versions, modify the car to look less like a Testarossa.

Driving Stick: Massively simplified gearbox with two options: Low gear and High gear. OutRunners also had cars with 3 or more speed, but the way you shift pretty much amounts to pushing the up/down lever until you reach the gear you want. OutRun 2 has 5 or 6-speed manual gearboxes depending on the car, but all share the same up/down functionality (similar to Initial D Arcade Stage games before Zero); to make things simple, it also includes an option for automatic transmission.

Unit Confusion: In OutRun 2019, the units are messed up. In the North American version, the HUD displays "MPH" next to your speed, and in other versions it's “km∕h� instead; par for the course. But the only version that gets the units correct is the European version, in which your car has a max speed of 692 km∕h; the North American version shows 692 MPH, and the Japanese version shows 341 km∕h.

Fauxrrari: The first game didn't have official licensing from Ferrari (that would happen beginning with Scud Race), despite using everything about the Testarossa's styling, up to and including the prancing horse logo on the back; re-releases of the game usually replace the Testarossa with a similar yet generic Ferrari expy. The cars were fully licensed in OutRun 2 and its derivatives.

Thrill Seeker: According to the song "Life Was a Bore", this is why the woman next to the driver is in the car — he was the first thing in her life that was genuinely exciting, and now she lives to see what wild road he drives down next.

Respawn on the Spot: Whenever your car crashes and rolls out of the road, it comes back fixed at the cost of a few seconds.

Scoring Points
 OutRun (Video Game) / int_c64bdacd
comment
Scoring Points: Like many driving games, you continuously gain points as you drive, and get a big bonus based on time left if you reach the goal. In OutRun 2, you gain points for passing traffic cars, and even more for passing rivals, but hitting a car will reduce the bonus you get from passing it. There's also Heart Attack mode, a special mode where your passenger gives you various missions (such as passing cars, passing through gates, and drifting along a path) and completing these missions rewards you with hearts and letter grades.

Shout-Out
 OutRun (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: In the original OutRun's "B" ending, when the car reaches the finish line and the couple steps out, it instantly falls apart in the same manner as the car in The Blues Brothers. One of the roadside advertisements in the original game features an image of the biker from Hang-On, with the tagline "World Champion KTM" — referring to the motorcycle company who had won multiple motocross championships by that point. In the 3DS and Switch ports, "KTM" is replaced with "M2", a Creator Cameo for the porting team. After every fourth stage in Turbo OutRun is completed, a remixed version of Fantasy Zone's shopping music plays as the player chooses a new part for their car. One of the new songs in the Switch version is "Driver's Megamix Vol. 1," which is a simultaneous reference to "Awesome Mix Vol. 1" from Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) and Sega's crossover fighter Fighters Megamix.

Writing Around Trademarks: The 3DS and Switch versions of OutRun redesign the car's back to look less like Ferrari due to licensing issues (which also resulted in OutRun Online Arcade being delisted from online stores).

Guest Fighter: The open-wheel car from Virtua Racing appears as a secret vehicle in the home console version of OutRunners as the "Virtua Formula". However it this isn't included in every release of the game.

Distracted by the Sexy: In the route A ending, a group of men lift up the player character as a response to his accomplishment, but then a woman in a bikini shows up and they move to her, dropping him in the process.

Product Placement: In addition to the official Ferrari license (which came with a boatload of other Ferrari stuff beyond the selectable vehicles such as unlockable fact cards documenting all sorts of Ferrari things from other Ferrari cars to Ferrari parts, all of which include a URL to Ferrari's website), OutRun 2 also features billboards for AMD, Vodafone, Bridgestone tires, Olympus cameras, and Shell gasoline. These were the sponsors for Ferrari's Formula One team at that time.

Sequel Goes Foreign: While the original OutRun isn't set in a specific place (though implied to be a condensed Europe), Turbo is set in Eagleland and OutRunners is a world rally.
