    Yeah, I must say that I feel that this forum has actually improved since the implementation of Rad Racer as one of the main topics of discussion.

    For your viewing pleasure, more Rad Racer:

    I am a big fan of Rad Racer because I owned it as a child. Technically, it was the first Squaresoft game that I played.

    Can someone answer this question for me? I recall seeing an arcade version of the game where you could see the driver and his girlfriend cruising in the vehicle of your choosing. If you were to swirve off the road and flip, your drivers would fly out of the vehicle, but quickly run back inside of it as it turns upright, uninjured. Is that true or a childhood fabrication?
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    You're thinking of Outrun.

    Yeah, in fact, I think a lot of people called Rad Racer an Outrun rip-off back in the day.

    Admittingly, Outrun was pretty fun (probably because it was a Rad Racer ripoff). I found it pretty amusing that you get your own hoochie.

    In Rad Racer, the hoochie is implied. The game is that deep.

And just like the original Metroid plot twist, at the game's ending it is revealed that there is indeed a woman beneath the armor. In this case the armor is the car. My analogies rule.

    The original was good, but all the sequels got out of hand. Rad Racer: Before Crisis was ok, but Rad Vs Racer was obviously just thrown together at the last minute to get some more money out of name recognition alone.
