   The announcement of Climax Graphics' third game Super Runabout for the Dreamcast never really made much of a bang like Time Stalkers (Climax Landers) or even Blue Stinger. In fact, I bet only the hardcore Sega Dreamcast fans know about this game. Well, just recently, Super Runabout game got some attention after Climax released more info on the game.
    Super Runabout is a sequel to PSX game, Runabout (known as Felony 11-79 in North America and Europe). The game wasn't a big success in North America or Europe because it was critized for being too short. But it was a huge success in Japan. So, why not Runabout 2, instead of Super Runabout? Climax chose Super Runabout to mainly because they consider the Dreamcast the ultimate system.
    Super Runabout isn't a racing game, its more of a action game. The gameplay is sort of similar to Crazy Taxi and Driver. I'm not sure how, but people have called this game Crazy Taxi 2. There isn't much info on this game, but I'll give you all the info that anyone can find online. All I know is that you get points for doing something, then you use the points to upgrade your car.
    The game will have 30 cars, but their aren't like actual cars. They have this wierd looking Acura NSX, Mercedes minivan, and other look alike cars. There will be 4 cars to drive these cars. You can use these cars to go anywhere in the course.
   The people at Climax took some pictures of San Francisco, making the background look realistic. Wanna go sight seeing in San Francisco, there some famous sight seeing places like Fisherman's Wharf and Alcatraz. You can drive right through in a hotel or something, to get out you can go up the stairs and fly out the window. Cool, huh?
