    Review | OutRun Online Arcade

    Getting caught up.

    For a company that apparently lost faith in the Saturn within two years of launching it in the West, and ditched its entire console hardware business when things went wrong next time around, SEGA's been remarkably persistent with its sixth-gen OutRun reboot. Despite middling sales of every previous home version of OutRun2 and its immediate follow-up, OutRun2 SP, this year marks another return, once again under the control of conversion supremos SUMO Digital and this time on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network, where consumers may be more at ease with the game's singular focus: five minutes of threading Ferraris sideways along perilous one-way motorways amidst improbably condensed abstract background details.

    Review | RACE Pro

    Engine and tonic.

    Despite being over six feet tall, I used to drive a Mini. A proper old Mini, like in The Italian Job. I loved that Mini. I miss that Mini.

The first car you get in the career mode of Simbin's debut console racer is a Mini, and it's a testament to the Swedish studio's oft-acclaimed skill that the digital version retains that unique and intangible Mini feel.
