Nice!

I was really hoping they'd have a demo up but I don't see one. I'm planning to get the game on 360 tomorrow, but would have liked to get a taste tonight while I waited. Still, I find I'm oddly tempted to double-dip and just buy it on PS3 too.

Temptation growing...

It's fucking PERFECT!

Amazing.

My favourite game of all time is here in the home, finally. Beautiful.

If true, I'd have to say that putting a REWIND button in a game like this is a bad bad BAD idea!

It's probably just for practicing turns. I doubt it'd let you upload to the leaderboards. It's not a bad idea at all.

And the Saturn soundtrack is in? YES

Oh? Explain dude. Saturn sound for Dinosaur Canyon and Expert stage only? Please say not as the default for 777 Speedway.

BGM seems to be 'arrange' and 'original', I guess original is the arcade OST, no idea what the arrange OST is?? Interesting.....

gamefan · Oct 25, 2011

how is the control, twitchy or just right and is there a setting to adjust the sensitivity?

DrFunk · Oct 25, 2011

Holy shit the intro...PERFECT. It even has the "V.R" buttons!

oh my fuck

Change the laps to Grandprix or Endurance and see if that enables this.

GrayFoxPL · Oct 25, 2011

Acceleration and brake on what buttons?

Remapable?

KennyLinder · Oct 25, 2011

There is no sensitivity options. It CAN be a tiny bit twitchy if you slam the stick left to right but its NOTHING like the Dreamcast version which spun you off the track. It's really fucking nice and very very smooth left to right steering, its dreamy

Perfect 60, no pop up apart from the complex building in Seaside Street Galaxy.

You can even stop the spinning reel on 777. I actually got a trophy for it lol.

Back to it, but its good, REALLY GOOD.

Raudi · Oct 25, 2011

Trying to decide between PS3 vs XBOX version

Decision will be based on which platform works best with wheels (Fanatec GT2)

Looking for any feedback from Gaffers with Wheels!

I'm going crazy here and I don't even have the game!

OK, its time for you to tell us the REAL Daytona experience. Please, tell us about the multiplayer? Is it insane like the Arcade glory days? IT SHOULD BE!!

TheChewyWaffles · Oct 25, 2011

Can I have someone educate me please...what's the appeal of Daytona? I never played it in the arcades.

I got a $20 card from Bestbuys US site, they sell white coloured PSN cards which they email you the PSN code. I then bought it from the US store...

Challenge mode is fun

Trojan X · Oct 25, 2011

Multiplayer feedback, people? That the ultimate reason to play Daytona other than conquering each track to perfection.

Thanks for the feedback, dude. Looks like I would have to wait until it comes out over here on the Xbox. *sigh... I want to join the excitement with everyone else though but, oh well.

Give us your feedback when you play it. Funnily, my friends from SEGA Japan are waiting for my opinion.

No splitscreen?

STRONGLY doubt it. Don't look for that.

GrayFoxPL · Oct 25, 2011

Patience, the game is out for 20 minutes. They need to fry skies first.

arit · Oct 25, 2011

I hope six hours of sleep are enough today, why did they have to put it up so late(european time late)? No, shut down system, have to sleep...

Respawn · Oct 25, 2011

So many great memories. Thank You OP and Thank You Sega.

KennyLinder · Oct 25, 2011

No split-screen I can see.

Want to play and not type, but I am really VERY VERY happy with this. There is now finally a "perfect" home version of Daytona USA, it's absolutely spot on.

Just so much love here, amazing.

Right, back to the track....

SkylineRKR · Oct 25, 2011

Great, great... It feels and looks like the Model 2. Intro and everything is being kept as it should.

Its a little bit twitchy yes, but I just started to nail it. The game just takes some skill. Pumping out 17's on a structural basis at the Oval. Came in third on Arcade difficulty, which is the hardest in the game afaik and tried a time trial at the oval which ended in a 2:22 or so. Also went online, it played great but opponents warped a bit (I figure I'm playing people from over the atlantic).

This is it. The best port of Daytona ever. This is fucking it.

Seems like a previous version had split screen.

Anyway, I remember playing it in an arcade with my mom when I was like 9, she'd win like every time. Just thought it would be nice to relive a nostalgic moment.

levious · Oct 25, 2011

only saw one game online, four players, no cpu cars, not sure what's default online.

"Arrange" is what Sega called the redone soundtracks for their Saturn ports in the options menu (like on Virtua Fighter 2), so I assume that the Arrange BGM are the three redone course tracks from the Saturn port. It could be a new arrangement, though.

Yes, the previous home versions did have split screen but internet wasn't a big thing for consoles until the Dreamcast era, and even then not everyone went online due to high internet expenses.

Your mother use to beat you on Daytona...?! *my lips are sealed...

SEGA, give us fucking Sega Rally 1 and Virtua Racing NOW!

You did excellent versions for Japanese PS2, you can do it!!

TheChewyWaffles · Oct 25, 2011

So this is all a bunch of nostalgia in this thread? Cause surely the gameplay has been eclipsed since its glory days in the arcade, right? Honest question.

Teknoman · Oct 25, 2011

I dunno if I should grab on PS3 or wait a day for 360...

Its just a really fun racing game with a catchy soundtrack.

SkylineRKR · Oct 25, 2011

heh, those challenges are pretty cool. Think GT license stuff, but then fun. Did all Oval ones. Looking forward to the other courses' challenges.

alr1ght · Oct 25, 2011

No demo on PSN. :|

Guess I'll have to wait to dl the demo on XBL tomorrow.
