This game takes away from the reality-like feeling you get in the first 2 rush games. In those games you can look in Vegas and see the Stratosphere Tower, or drive through San Francisco and see the golden gate bridge. This game is too futuristic for my liking because the cars are futuristic and so are the scenarios. Stick to the first 2 games unless you like the futuristic feel. The one good thing about this game is the battle mode where you can battle your friends. That is where it earned it's 2nd star.

Excellent Game with One MAJOR Flaw

San Francisco Rush 2049 is an EXCELLENT game in the arcades. However, the DreamCast version uses an extremely inept control layout which DOES NOT allow the possibility of using the left and right arrow buttons for steering. Control with the stick is slow and touchy at best, and certainly not everyone can afford to go buy a steering wheel just to have some measure of car control in the game. Those who are unaccustomed to using the left-hand control stick should definitely avoid the DreamCast version of the game if they do not already own or cannot afford to acquire a steering wheel.

A different type of racing game.

SF Rush 2049 is an interesting twist on the non-traditional racer. It is similar to previous releases of the same title, but with updated graphics and so on. The controls are smooth and pretty simple to learn. The amount of cars, tracks, and different racing modes realy helps the replay value. The battle mode is great for taking breaks from just a normal (if you can call them normal) races. If you like racing games and are not a die hard sim/realism junky then you will love this game. For those that are, stear clear, it's not for you.

A great game

I have only played the demo version of this game and I loved it,exspicially the combat mode.In stunts there is a limited combination of tricks but the twirls and flips rock.In the racing mode the control can be frustrating,over time you will grow use to it.In the end you should by the game and see if it your type.

A Must Have

If you don't have this game, the question is where have you been? This is the greatest racing/battle fiction game for the Dreamcast. Buy the game you won't be sorry.

Another game that shows the Dreamcast is THE system to own!

I only have a demo disc from Official Dreamcast MAgazine with only one track, but I must say it lives up to the Rush name: Fast, agressive, fun, and exciting. My only gripe is that the 1track that I raced was a little on the boring side, but again, that was only ONE track out of six. A game that will tear apart the arcade racing genre, I am very excited for Rush's roar into home when its realesed. peace out

Sup dreamcast gurus! I just got Rush 2049 a couple days ago. It is the best thing I own. First, the graphics are slick, colorful and smooth, with little slowdown. Second, the sound is realistic and the techno soundtrack is awesome. Third, the gameplay. Oh god the gameplay. You get an "I'm not worthy" feeling when you see a sweet shortcut and realize by taking it you're missing about 20 more, the levels are so huge. For example...I drove up the side of a building, straight up, and landed. There was a whole network of other buildings up there that you could jump on to grab more bonus coins, or simply jump 1000 feet to your doom. How's that for complexity? How's this for a competitive edge--you are driving along, some jerk is in front of you and has cut you off. You hit a red switch on the ground and blam!!!! out comes a huge stone fist from a wall, out of nowhere, that smears him, while you zoom by him. Funniest thing in the world. Also, there are plenty of things to unlock so you'll never be bored (160 coins to find). The stunt mode is creative and mind-blowing. The wings let you do tricks you've never thought possible. Plus, the battle mode which is singlehandedly better than the whole Twisted Metal series is sweet. The weapons are hilarious too. Why buy stiff, stuffy, boring racing games where all you do is circle the same track repetitively (like Gran Turismo)? Why not hurtle through a windy clear full-pipe at 180 mph and fly past the competition instead of worry about "torque" and "cornering" and your geeky italian sports cars? Buy Rush instead.

hands down the best multiplayer game EVER

OK, so you like racing games....thats great, I don't really. But there is this battle mode in this San Francisco Rush 2049 game that is wicked ru. I have been playing nonstop for close to 2 years and I never get tired of it. The physics are excellent, and well are the courses. You keep discovering new jumps and possiblities with each play. The weapons are perfectly designed. There are limes, tube stick, pews, green gun, machinis, emp, balls, and assram. Of course these are the names we came up for the warpens, but you can make an argument that any one of these is the best weapon in the game. they are complement each other perfectly. This game is absolutely perfect, the only downside is you have to play the racing and stunt mode to unlock all the cars! stoop.
