If you're feeling lazy don't even bother reading this review, as the intro tells you just about everything you need to know - and the score should pretty much underline it. If you insist on persevering, however, I suppose I've got to as well (although, to be honest, I'm tempted to leave the entire page blank as a kind of testimony to the game's smellyness).
It was a coin-op..
First of all - big ups to YouTube user TheArcadeStriker (aka DaytonaFan from the Supermodel forum), because without his video I'. Daytona USA 2001, a remake of Daytona USA and Championship Circuit Edition, was released in 2001 for the Dreamcast, with graphical upgrades, online multiplayer, and new courses. Daytona Championship USA, also referred to as Daytona USA 3, debuted in late 2016 as an arcade exclusive; it was the first Daytona arcade game in 18 years. 1996, the year Daytona USA Deluxe was released on Windows. Made by SEGA-AM2 Co., LTD., Sega AM3 R&D Division and published by SEGA Enterprises Ltd., this racing / driving game is available for free on this page.

As you'll know, Daytona was a pretty fab arcade game in its time, and it engendered debates in pubs among sad people: I reckon Ridge Racer's the best, always said one. No, would say another, it's got to be Daytona - the tracks are more imaginative. And so on. Yawn. But these days Daytona has been relegated in status to the point where there's actually a stand-up cabinet of the thing in a chip shop on Worthing pier. No matter, there's nothing wrong with that.
There are, however, an alarming number of things wrong with the home conversions. The Saturn version (as mentioned in the intro) was virtually unplayable. Jerk-o-vision was the first little devil to raise its head, followed very soon after by the handling characteristics of your car - which drove pretty much like an anvil. But then, as if that wasn't enough, the music hit home bigtime.. and it couldn't be turned off: I'm going to fly-y-y so hi-igh, I'm going to fly right into the sky-y, was the lyric, but luckily for you I can't explain the Ctune', which was even worse. It started to appear in my dreams, on the bus, in the supermarket, and on and on. I've only recently managed to repress the bugger, but now, thanks to this pc version, it's back with a vengeance, floating around in my head again. Round and round and round. I can hear it as I'm writing this. It won't go away. Aaaaargh! Stop it! Stop it! Help me someone, pleeeease!
Things get worse..
Sega have very cleverly taken a shite Saturn game and made it worse for the pc. The cars handle almost exactly as uselessly, but as for the frame rate.. well, let's just say forget about it. And that was on a P166, by the way. What you get is jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, and then a long pause as scenery loads in (or something). Then it's back to jerk, jerk, jerk again. It gets to the point that when hacking down a long straight you actually encounter the Cwagon wheel effect' from cowboy movies: the dotted lines on the road appear to be going backwards, even though the scenery beyond is nearing. Bizarre. And, of course, very, very crap.
Can I sing the song to you again, please? I'm going to fly-y-y so hi-igh, I'm going to fly right into the sky-y. Bastards! Help! (etc).

I LIKE THIS GAME ARCADE

tossbag, music may be Redbook, normal CD audio tracks, as you would have to download the ISO version and run with that in a virtual drive. It might not work with all virtual CD drives. Redbook was most common at the time, and explains the difference between rip and ISO sizes.
