OutRun Online Arcade is a racing video game and the most recent release in the OutRun series. It was developed by Sumo Digital and published by Sega. The game was released on April 15, 2009 on Xbox Live Arcade and released exclusively in Europe for the PlayStation 3 a day later via the PlayStation Network. Gameplay involves players racing their choice of Ferrari through a selection of fifteen stages in the shortest time possible.
The game was fairly well received by critics. Reviewers generally felt that the game was a faithful adaptation of the OutRun 2 series of games. The upgraded high definition graphics were also lauded. Critics felt that the game was worth the price, but some felt that the amount of available content was lacking considering the cars and stages available in the series' other titles. OutRun Online was taken down from PlayStation Network in October 2010 and was removed from Xbox Live Arcade in December 2011 due to the expiration of their contract with Ferrari.[2]
