PSN, XBLA: OutRun Online Arcade Not Coming To PSN In America


Outrun Online Trailer

When OutRun Online Arcade was originally announced there were some strange occurances happening with the press releases. Two separate ones were released for Europe and America - with the American one strangely having no mention of the PS3 version.

UK gaming outpost CVG have now gotten the final word on the situation - the PlayStation Network version of OutRun Online Arcade is a European exclusive. It will not be released in North America.

The reasons could be many - are Microsoft shelling out for an American exclusive? Are Sony not keen on releasing a port in NA? Either way, Sega has declined to comment on the issue.
