The past is stupid: Outrun 2019

Hello, futurenauts! This post was written in 2012, but is schedjuled to debut in 2019, as a reminder of what we set out  we, as a species, thought you had in store for us. After all, the future is uncertain. Here in 2012 we refer to an ancient calendar as a sign of endtimes. But if you are reading this, this means we're stupid to do so.

What did we expect from 2019, the year you are in? Well according to 1993's Outrun 2019 you are big into racing, but the kind of racing where it's more like a timed course on light traffic.

We have an inkling you enjoy painting large skull decals into your cars back windows. Is this true? That doesn't seem very futuristic.

However, the game does say you'll have super speedboosting turbines on at least the higher end models of your cars. perhaps this are so rare, you decided not to use them to race directly against other cars?

Are you impressed at our pastly prophetic capacities? Chime in!
