I clearly state a specific subgenre of racing games -- Outrun-style behind the car psuedo 3d racers.
Does "Outrun-style" mean more to you?
Because I'd certainly say that Cruis'n USA is a game in that subgenre, wouldn't you?
You drive forward on a railed path in a 3d viewpoint. You cannot leave the road or turn around. It is a very arcadish style of controlling cars.
Can you honestly say that if you play a bunch of those games for the SNES they don't all blend together both in gameplay and in graphics?
Cruis'n has newer graphics but the gameplay is clearly inspired by (and an improvement on) those older games.
