I just got this in the inbox – I’ve bolded certain statements to point out new features. The name has changed from what I have been told, which does show that this is a proper sequel and NOT a remake like Sega Racing Classic was. Here are the details summed up, then the press release
-Name was changed from what was shown in Chicago (Daytona Reloaded) to Daytona 3 Championship USA
-47″ screen
-27″ billboard marquee
-Link up to 8 machines
-Camera with in-game avatars
-New cars and game modes
-Operator adjustable “party mode” for tournaments
-Based on the original Daytona USA engine to keep the physics
-Three new tracks plus remastered tracks from the original Daytona USA

Wait...there was a Daytona 2? Why don't I remember that one? Also, that game has one of the most memorable game theme songs ever.

Daytona 2 was similar to the first one, it was on the Model 3 board so it had better graphics. It was never ported to home systems, so that might be why you don't remember it.

Was the Dreamcast game just it's own game then? Not based on arcade or anything?Dr. Zoidberg wrote:Daytona 2 was similar to the first one, it was on the Model 3 board so it had better graphics. It was never ported to home systems, so that might be why you don't remember it.

I think the DC version was a mix of 1 & 2

Re: New Daytona arcade game announced
I HAVE TO PLAY NEW DAYTONA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I fucking love Daytona!
Only Daytona I have never played were the Saturn versions, which I am told are pretty crap anyway.
Definitive Daytona is the Dreamcast version.. It has all original tracks, plus the ones from CCE and 3 of it's own Not really any 2 at all.
Criticisms about controls of Daytona USA 2001 are fucking retarded.. OH REALLY, it doesn't control the same as a full size arcade cabinet with wheel and gear stick as it does on your $40 dreamcast controller... OH WOW SHIT GAME!!!
NO daytona game plays the same as the original you idiots.. and that includes Daytona USA 2 and Sega racing classic. Even the Daytona Extended machines people converted the original machines from handle different.
This new one using the same engine could either be very good, or very horrible..

It removes all popup from the arcade, maintains a constant frame rate, adds like 6 tracks, has "DAYTONAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" is VGA compatible and doesn't cost a dollar or 2 each time you want to play.. IT SUCKS ASS!!!!Skynet wrote:No way man, Dreamcast Daytona sucks!ian wrote:I HAVE TO PLAY NEW DAYTONA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My copy (which I got in 2007 or 2008) paid for itself in about a month. Best version of the game.
If you ran it in a Daytona arcade cabinet, it would be called Daytona Ultimate!

Actually the best official home version of the game is the arcade version that came out out on XBLA & PSN last gen.
Hopefully the 360 version becomes BC on the Bone one day.

I've played them both, don't know if I own the 360 one or it's just the demo.
The controls on the 360/PS3 one were better.
The Saturn version was alright.

It's the same controls.. The reason people hate the dreamcast controls, is if you flick the stick all the way, you will get full lock instantly and do the drift move...
I could understand ALL the bitching if you had to use a digital pad.. but this is an analog stick.. You know if you don't want the full lock drift effect, you can slightly push the stick in the direction you want to turn, and it won't be full lock!!
You didn't hear people bitch about Gran Turismo's controls.. If you wanted full lock, you held the dpad down.. if you didn't you tapped it.. SAME FUCKING THING.
Basically.. Don't bitch about console controls of an ARCADE racing game unless you own a $1500+ arcade machine.
Dreamcast had same controls than the 360 one.. (And I'm sure I owned, AND STILL own BOTH versions) Not "I don't know if I owned it or if I played a demo"...

I've still played it, whether it was the demo or the full version.
Also the XBLA/PSN version has the best controls.

Re: New Daytona arcade game announced
Looks great, but these people all drive wrong.. They're using slight movements for some reason...
The trick to daytona is jamming the wheel and gear shifter like no tomorrow.
I really hope the game has proper shifters!
