Games like Virtua Racing showcased polygonal graphics in a way that showed a polygonal game could play as smoothly as a sprite-based one and was a direct descendant to one of Sega’s most-enduring games: Daytona USA. The ’90s were a time of change and in the early ’90s no major company gave the impression of living in the moment quite like Sega. Beyond delivering great experiences, they also strove to drive technology forward in ways that even to this day showed off the benefits of a dedicated machine versus a home console experience. With a legacy that began with Yu Suzuki’s classic Outrun and continued with other super scaler games like Hang-On, the company stakes its flag in arcade racing to an unmatched degree. Sega’s arcade racers were the stuff of legend in their time - and that legend has only grown as decades pass and many games pay homage to them. You’ll see both good and bad souls unearthed every month as we search through the more… forgotten…parts of history. Inside, we’ll be digging up games that have long been without a pulse.

Watch your step, for you’ve just entered the Graveyard.
