At the time Out Run was in the arcades I remember hoping for a home computer version. But sadly the Amiga version wasn't all it was hoped it would be. The graphics were ok but not amazing and the music was badly cut down from the original.

If you like racing games then give it a try, but others such as Lotus are a long way ahead of Out Run and offer a much longer lifespan.

I remember getting this game for the Amiga and having hours of fun. It's Lifespan is extended when you have friends also playing the game and beating your hiscore which is always fun.

The music was always very nice and I personally thought the graphics were some of the best when compared to all other none arcade versions of this game that were released. The framrate did get a bit jerky at times, but it was still playable.
