About this product

Product Information

If you think San Francisco streets are crazy now, just wait 50 years. Not only will the streets of San Francisco be more insane than they are now, but the souped-up supercars that you strap yourself into will also be a touch on the crazy side. So warm up the engine, check the turbocharger, make sure your wings are working, and hit the sloping, winding, mixed-up streets of San Fran, circa 2049.<br><br>San Francisco Rush 2049 is the first entry in Midway's Rush series to take place in the future. It is a port of the arcade title, which was released in 1999 and became another racing game hit for Midway. The Rush series, like Midway's other racing titles, is intended to be a very arcade-like take on the art of driving, embracing the speed of the sport without having to deal with the nuance and difficulty of the real thing. <br><br>Rush 2049 keeps the large, shortcut-filled tracks of its predecessors and puts more emphasis on stunts, given the ability of your car to sprout wings to increase the length of jumps and the added control over the flipping and rolling which you can put your car through.<br><br>There are 19 tracks of various difficulty levels and 13 cars to choose from. Each car has its own attributes, and you can customize the various automobiles with items such as engines and tires to alter their stats to a greater degree. Rush 2049 features three different modes: Race Mode, which is a standard contest from which you can select from single racing experiences or a full circuit; Stunt Mode, where you will attempt to perform high-flying and dangerous maneuvers for high scores, and Battle Mode where you can take on your friends in some destructive action. You can also upload your best times to the Internet, and download others' best times to race in the Ghost Mode.<br>If you think San Francisco streets are crazy now, just wait 50 years.

  • Rush2049 Dreamcast Vs N64 Rush2049.

    The graphics are so mush better on the dreamcast then the n64 console. The game is based in the future where the building and cars are crazy cool. Your car has wings that pop out of the sides of your car when ever you go off a hill. There is small difference between the n64 and dreamcast. I have both. The N64 is lesser quality graphics vs the dreamcast is a ton better graphics. The music is different in both games. But cool either way. The cars you can change the total colors on the n64. On the dreamcast the cars you have 8 set color scheme. So there are small differences. There is 3 modes Race, Stunt ,Battle, The battle is my Favorite. Big guns on top of your car I think there's 8 different weapons. The stunt mode is fun as well. All in all a great game.
