With this title, most people forget it was part of the franchise, still trying to figure out why.
Obviously released in 2001, Daytona USA 2001 was the first in the franchise to be specifically designed for console release. Featuring 8 tracks, secret cars along with circuit configurations for reverse and mirrored, it's the most complete version of the game to date.
Sega accidentally killed the online servers for this game through poor coding.
Pros
Plenty of content, more than any other Daytona title.
Music is still amazing.
More than enough cars to cater to every playstyle.
Cons
Most if not all players will still drive Hornet even if other cars are faster.
The botched online mode means that online multiplayer is non existent.
Verdict
I love this game but then again I'm a sucker for arcade racers.
