- @5 A GUIDE TO THE ARCADE VERSION OF DAYTONA USA

-
- @1Now, if you are like me and love the thought of kicking the crap out of
- somebody's car, then this is the game for you.
-
- When I go to the arcades to scope out the latest machines I tend to play in a
- certain way. This includes shouting out phrases that rhyme with muddy funster,
- trashing opposing players cars and hurling lots of abuse around the arcade on
- unsuspecting members of the public, you just can't beat it.
-
- Daytona for me, is belting round an oblong track oblitorating the cars as I go.
- But for you (I.E. Nite) you yell at the first sign of any unfair play (You can
- release the neckhold now, Nite!), which is usually to no avail because you're
- already upside down in the wall (HA HA HA HA HA). @3[Oh No! I can see a war
- starting here. zYLAX!]@1
-
- But now for your guide as promised.
-
- The first thing to do is learn how to use the gears, they aren't hard at all,
- but it does take practise to get it exactly right. Second, learn the
- Powerslide because this is the only way you will ever finish the Expert Level
- Track, which is bloody hard. The way to do it is, brake before the corner and
- turn the wheel, then floor the accelerator when you are are coming out of the
- corner and belt off into the sunset. (Er, got a bit carried away there)
-
-
- @7Useful (?) tips for Daytona USA:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~@5
- 1. Scream abuse at everyone driving against you.
-
- 2. On the Beginner track, remember that you start the race on a Rolling Start
- so, put the gearstick straight into fourth instead of starting in the
- first gear.
-
- 3. If you are lucky enough to find a four player Daytona, don't be sad and
- put a pound coin in for a one player. Wait for three other players and
- cause extreme violence!
-
- 4. If all else fails, and the person next to you is doing better (but you
- know you can whup em' in a fight), then lean over to see how they are
- doing and do one of the following two things:
-
- A > Push the steering wheel to make them lose control.
- B > If opponent is on the right of you, give he/she (no sexism here) a
- dead leg on the left leg, causing their foot to slam hard on the
- brake. @3[This idea originally came from Gobliiin/PTK. Yeah,
- everyone gets credited here! zYLAX! <-See!]@5
-
- 5. Push he/she in front of articulated lorry as revenge for beating you.
