Unknown arcade titles from Fighter17 - Rad Mobile

[RSS Bot]

This will be the start of this type of blog. I prefer bogging about arcade titles which you can play on MAME that you'll most likely never herd of before. Also I prefer not to talk too much about it as possible. I just want you to give it an try.

 

And of course my English skills are not so great.

 

Game: Rad Mobile

Developer/Publisher: Sega

Year: 1991

Hardware: System 32 (Sega Saturn was based of this hardware for the 2D department)

Note: First Sega 32-bit arcade game

 

You can’t decline when Sega were the king of 2D sprite-scaling racers. Classics like Outrun had stood the test of time of pure fun and scaling excitement.

 

Anyway back on-topic, the first game featured on this blog will be Rad Mobile. Race across the U.S. from the West Coast to the East Coast without the time running out is your goal. While trying to have enough time to finish crossing the U.S., you must also get to first place by passing your rivals.

 

OK the game is very simple, but it does show some impressive scaling which rivals the early 3D racers like Ridge Racer. OK, the sound is average, but the gameplay is what makes this game worth it.

 

So if you’re into racers, please give this game a try on MAME. Be warned that you will need a good computer to run this game.

 

On an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0 GHz with 512 MB RAM the game runs perfect 60 FPS.
