Sega announced the eagerly awaited sequel to 1986"s pioneering arcade racer, Outrun. Tentatively titled Outrun 2, this sequel, which was first mentioned some four years back via comments from AM2 head Yu Suzuki, is being developed for the Xbox-compatible Chiriro arcade hardware.
Sneaking a quick look at AM2"s website, we can also confirm that the game will carry an official Ferrari licence, and that the game will feature the same branching map that helped make the original Outrun so much fun back in the 80s. One new feature seems to be the game"s Heart meter - we presume this measures how impressed your girlfriend, who as with the original, is sitting in the passenger seat, is with your driving.
