No, the Outrun situation was that the game ended up only getting released in Europe.  They cancelled the Japanese and American releases.  Try buying something from Euro PSN and get back to me.   :-\

Quote
Yet another one of those worst kept secret contenders became official news today as Famitsu offered its readers a first look at a PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 version of Afterburner Climax.

Climax hit arcades in 2006 as a rebirth of the classic After Burner franchise. The game retained the high speed arcade-style thrills of the old After Burner games, complete with a moving Deluxe cabinet, but updated the visuals to the then top-of-the-line Lindbergh standard. New gameplay features included "Climax Mode," which slows enemy motion, allowing players to destroy multiple enemies simultaneously.

Based off Famitsu's brief preview about the game (this was of the magazine's mini previews) , it seems that Sega will be mimicking the arcade version, right down to the four selectable colors for your jet and the option for using After Burner II music.

New for the home are "EX Options." These allow you to tinker with various settings, making your ship invincible, switching on auto lock-on, and setting Climax Mode to infinite, for instance. The various options, which can be combined as you please, are unlocked by clearing certain currently unspecified conditions.

Look for After Burner Climax this Spring on PSN and XLA, priced respectively at ¥900 and 800 Microsoft Points.

Yes. It was pretty fun and had really fucked up missions, like if you actually read the briefings they were stuff like "PROTECT THE CARGO PLANE WHICH IS TRANSPORTING EASTER EGGS FOR THE WHITE HOUSE EGG HUNT" or equally Planet Moon-y stuff

Easy cheevs but if you want the Gold Helmet for your avatar you have to be the man. I'll give score attack a whirl and try and get a top 1000 ranking hopefully.

I will put on the Top Gun Soundtrack while I play tonight, it comes highly recommended. Although the Afterburner 2 music is pretty damn awesome  :-*

Leaderboards aren't too stiff so far. Apart from 1 dude with over 2 mil everyone else in the top k is in the low to mid 1000000 mark. I'm at 1008 with 728580 and I've only played through score attack twice so far. That helmet for getting all score attack medals is a pretty hardcore challenge, don't really see myself making it for a while.

edit: 'clear the game without being shot down' :rofl

yeah I'll never be getting that helmet.

I have no idea how you play this, but it looks pretty and shooting missiles is always fun.

The last few levels in the game are insane...how the hell are people beating them without dying once?   :lol

It plays like Afterburner!   :lol

Just move your reticule over enemies to target them, then fire missles/shoot them down.  Climax mode slows everything down so you can rack up a huge combo or target a specific enemy pretty easily.  That's all there is to it.

I didn't mean literally, I meant as in having a good strategy to avoid missiles while hitting all the targets

You can get ending A in score attack right? A couple times now I've completed all the emergency orders until the final mission and then the final order (destroy the prototype ship with the nukes) doesn't trigger  :'(

I wasn't going to buy this until I finished Shadow Complex. But after coming back to SC after about 6 months I have no fucking idea where to go and literally fucked around for an hour trying to exit this one part of the complex with no success, so I rage deleted it and downloaded this fucking awesome game in its place. 33% downloaded now

I don't really understand the leadboards.  Is there really no penalty for dying in score attack?  Seems odd.


This game really gets it right.  You take a short 10-60 min fun arcade game and you make it so each time you play you unlock new things that make the same core game more fun.  Bam, you have console replayability.

Uh, Virtual On? Outrun Online? All of Sega's updated ports have been great so far. I'd say Virtual On is my favorite. Best unconventional 3D "fighter" ever.

I guess they thought missing a few enemies and your combo ending due to dying was bad enough.

Yeah, last time I checked. It's not as big as when the game first came out obviously and the people still playing are really good. Wasn't it on sale recently? There's probably a good amount of noobs right now. I think I'll check later.

Yeah the annoying barrel rolls are part of the way this game plays, but I agree it's annoying. Should be able to move mid roll imo. You shouldn't be trying to swerve directly side to side like you want to do intuitively. Try going up and down in diagonals to avoid missiles should stop you rolling when you don't want to.
