I've been playing Outrun 2006 on PSP for a few days - the choppy
framerate and slow down is bloody shocking and really has to be seen
to be believed (I wonder at times whether or not I'm playing a beta
version). The only surprising thing is that, despite the poor
graphics/animation, the game is not only playable but quite good fun.
Still, it isn't in the same league as the incredible Burnout or the
silky smooth Ridge Racer in terms of animation quality and framerate.
Surely if the PSP wasn't able to animate the graphics at the rate
required by Outrun the programmers should have been less ambitious in
terms of what they were trying to animate. How did such a graphically
poor game manage to get past quality control?
The first Xbox version was also very buggy (and prone to graphical
glitches) and I see that this version has been programmed by the same
team - Sumo. I wonder if Sumo is up to the job. Anyway, the PSP game
is bloody good fun to play - if you can get beyond the initial
disbelief of ridiculously choppy animation.

Simple really, Sega employed crappy Sumo digital to do the conversion.
sumo digital who did the original xbox version, which was acclaimed
worldwide as an amazing technical achievement and faithful conversion
of the arcade original?
