OutRun 2: Ferraris, babes & powerslides

Not much has changed here. Yes, Shorty's still ridin' shotgun in your Ferrari as the sequel to the 1986 arcade classic lands on the Xbox, retaining its old school flavor, while updating the engine for the 21st century. It's as basic as you get. Accelerate. Brake. Powerslide. A true arcade racer, accessible to just about any brand of gamer imaginable. But this also means that there's close to no variation from car to car, save for speed—another downside is the lack of a custom music track feature. Still, Sega has managed to pack in a load of unlockables (including the original OutRun), some whacky game modes, and online racing, all for just $40. If you had trouble keeping up with Burnout 3, you may find OutRun 2 to be a refreshing alternative.
