Although the original arcade version is available for digital download on Playstation and Xbox, this 2001 version has never seen any sort of re release. At the time of writing this, Daytona USA 2001 is only available for SEGA Dreamcast. However, for me, as a fan of arcade racers, Daytona USA really hit the spot and excels in almost every other area. If you don't want too much challenge, this probably isn't the game for you. I unfortunately do have to knock off a point for lack of accessibility, as Daytona is not kind to new players. Customisation options really add longevity to the game, and the fast paced nature of the races keep you on the edge of you seat the whole time. The graphics aren't amazing, but they do the job. Daytona USA 2001 is in my opinion a must-have title for any racing or arcade fans. The game's area of exploration and secrets lie in your control of the car - every now and again I will find a new technique, and finally being able to flawlessly drift around that particularly tight turn provides a great sense of accomplishment. Still perhaps a little over-sensitive, but I certainly got used to it. However, if you push the analog stick forward and sort of roll your thumb around the top to go left and right the car's steering becomes much smoother and easier. If you move your thumb from side to side over the analog stick the controls will be very twitchy and over-sensitive. In my opinion, it just takes some getting used to, particularly when you use this technique I picked up from an online video.

This may not sound too hard, but part of the challenge lies in adapting to the controls - perhaps the most frequent, criticism of the game. To come 1st you pretty much have to run a perfect race without any screw ups. Although it may not be for everyone, it gives you a great sense of accomplishment when you finally win.

I personally really like this difficulty. It also seems to get some sick enjoyment from singing the catchy 'Game Over' jingle at the end of every stage - even when you actually win the race. Like many other arcade games though, this game extremely difficult. I wasn't expecting the next Gran Tourismo, but this game never claims to be, and instead basks in its own wackiness. Alongside the cartoonish crash physics, it's clear the developers weren't taking themselves too seriously and this helps make Daytona a blast to play - just so long as you aren't looking for ultra realism. Even if you don't buy this game, I'd recommend checking out the soundtrack. The music in this game is very odd, and undoubtedly SEGA - it's so bad it sort of does a complete 180 and becomes undeniably awesome. RGB sliders allow you to create custom paint jobs for each car, which another welcome extra. Cars each have different stats and control very differently, so it is easy to find a driving style that suits you best. There is a vast array of tracks to race around (Although initially it may seem like there is only eight, all tracks have a regular, reverse, mirror, and mirror reverse mode, effectively giving you 32 tracks.) and a bunch of unlock-able cars. This is pure arcade racing action at its best - no unbalanced or irritating power-ups, it's just down to you and your driving skill. Although the visuals won't blow anyone way, it's the thrilling, fast-paced game play that brings you back to this arcade classic time and time again.

Although the visuals won't Just recently picked this game up, and I've gotta say this is currently my personal favourite SEGA Dreamcast title. Just recently picked this game up, and I've gotta say this is currently my personal favourite SEGA Dreamcast title.
