the arcade version doesn't have as much content as coast 2 coast, but the graphical flourishes make me love it more. when you complete route D the camera does the cool akira bike slide thing where you powerslide to a stop and the rocket in the background shoots sparks and particle effects everywhere that are so bright that you can't see your times until the ship has finished blasting off. it is my favorite game over screen of all time.
