Here's some Outrun 2 (Japanese Version) being played on the OG Xbox - Bonus Stage 1 AKA the tracks from Scud Race. (the JPN version is more accurate to the actual arcade version of Sud Race than the version of these bonus stages we got in the West - read on below for more info).

I picked up a component cable adapter for my Elgato HD video capture device awhile back so I could get some far better quality 480p video capture of the Japanese bonus stages in Outrun 2 running on my softmodded original Xbox, rather than the incredibly shitty composite video device I'd been using up until then.

I've already uploaded some Outrun 2 videos a while back I recorded in this superior manner, this video here is actually a slightly earlier experiment one, where I was using OBS to record, the video capture with the device (easier to set-up, less likely to screw the recording up) instead of the proprietary Elgato software (takes ages to get going, more prone to corrupting the video and making it unusable, but can do higher quality recordings). Predictably, the OBS captured video quality didn't come out as good, but it was still a decent run on the stage, so I thought, eh, worth an upload at some point in the future...

The Japanese version of Outrun 2 on the Xbox is a lot more accurate to the arcade original version of Scud Race. There are some significant differences between this version and the western version.

□ The sailing ship from Scud Race's 'Beginner Day' stage was missing in the Western versions. It's been added back in here

□ You've now got planes flying overhead in the 'Beginner Night ' stage part of the course, like in the arcade version of Scud Race. The planes on the ground have also been given a new lick of paint and are multi-coloured rather than the plain white ones in the EU and US versions of Outrun 2. There's also a plane on the ground on the second to last corner, the right-hand turn, that's also not in the Western versions.

□ The torches, in the 'Advanced Stage' where you go through the tunnel with the big U turn, are now properly lit, unlike the Western version. There's also a bit as you leave that stage area that has a wall with a big hole in it the Western versions. In the Japanese version there's a big idol head type thing, like in the actual Scud Race track.
