For all its originality, it's the most Sega game ever - you know that beautiful art style old 3D Sega games have? Kind of abstract and not terribly realistic, but also very detailed and high-tech? Like the early Virtua Fighters (say, VF2), or even before 3D, you know that feeling when you're playing Hang-On and the race starts, then for a moment there's no sound and the horizon is clear and you're alone, then you speed up and dramatic music starts playing? Sadly it looks like there's no place for this sort of thing anymore.
