San Francisco Rush 2049 is a racing video game developed by Atari Games and published by Midway Games for the Arcade, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Color, and for the Dreamcast. It was released on September 7, 2000 in North America, and November 17, 2000 in Europe.

San Francisco Rush 2049 is the first iteration of the San Francisco Rush 2049 series, was released in 1999. The game features all the basic features that would be carried over to subsequent San Francisco Rush 2049 editions.

The original version of San Francisco Rush 2049 features a roster of five playable tracks and eight different cars, plus unlockable cars that could be selected by the player. In each stage the player must race seven other racers in different cars played by CPU-controlled, along the way you find 100 coins to unlock new cars and paint jobs. San Francisco Rush 2049 is notable for its Keypad Feature to create an account by typing in certain code to save the player's data, also they can be used as cheat codes if you type in a certain code and a certain name.

San Francisco Rush 2049: Special Edition was released in 2003. The third and final game in the San Francisco Rush 2049 series. Unlike other games in the San Francisco Rush 2049 series this version was published by Benson Enterprises.

The arcade version was an 8 player game (but more commonly bought in pairs), sit-down machine with force feedback steering wheels, gear shifts, and 3 pedals (gas, brake, and clutch). A telephone-like keypad could be found to the right of the steering wheel, which gave the players the option of choosing a PIN and allowed them to earn points to unlock new cars and tracks. The machine used a 3dfx Voodoo 3 graphics card. In 2000 Midway released an upgrade (Tournament Edition) that fixed bugs, added new tracks, and added new cars. It also had the ability to connect to an external server, via a T1 network connection, and play against other players in an online tournament. The upgrade was soon after recalled as Midway shut down its online tournament network, although it may still be found in a few sites that retained it such as 'Video Bobs Starbase Arcade' in San Rafael, who were heavily involved in play-testing as a result of their proximity to the Midway West campus. In 2003, Betson Enterprises released an upgrade, called San Francisco Rush 2049 Special Edition, that added 2 new tracks, 10 new cars, and new shortcuts.[1]

While they play nearly identically, the Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast versions of San Francisco Rush 2049 have almost completely different soundtracks. The N64 version contains 12 music tracks, almost all of which are exclusive to that version and aren't even in the Arcade versions. The Dreamcast version includes 20 music tracks, many of which are the same as the Arcade versions and some of which are exclusive to that version. The "Night" music track, which is played on track 4 in the console versions, is different in both versions. The N64 version "Night" sounds similar to the "Wingey" music track from the DC version, while the DC version "Night" is the same as the Arcade versions track 5 music.

San Francisco Rush 2049 was ported to the Nintendo 64 and the Dreamcast in 2000 by Midway Games. The Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast versions contain Dickies and Slim Jim advertisements, but when it came out on Midway Arcade Treasures 3 the Slim Jim advertisements were removed and replaced with Midway Games logos.

San Francisco Rush 2049 was also ported to the Game Boy Color by Handheld Games and published by Midway Games. The tracks are different than the other versions, but the cars are the same. The racing takes place in a top-down perspective.

Midway Games had plans to create a double pack for Hydro Thunder and San Francisco Rush 2049 under the name Hydro Rush for the PlayStation 2. But the game was canceled and the project moved to Midway Arcade Treasures 3.

Rush 2049, a game made by Midway Games and released in October 1999, is in great need of a remaster for newer consoles. After Midway games filed for bankruptcy in 2009 and sold most of there assets to Warner Bros, Rush lost all hope for a remaster, or did it? They did end up making a sequel, but it wasn't the same, no battle mode and no stunt mode, which were the best features in the game, and I want a remake with, more maps, better textures and more cars/car parts. What im suggesting is that Warner Bros either sells the rights to someone who will remake the game, or does it themselves, if you want this amazing game back, sign now, otherwise, we lose it, just like many other games.

In my latest installment of remaking childhood N64 soundtracks, I've remade the title track to the brilliant SF Rush 2049. Barry Leitch's incredible compositional abilities became more apparent to me the longer I worked on this project. This one was a masterclass in synth-making as I made nearly every synth completely from scratch and tried replicating the original to the best of my ability. Hope you enjoy :)

El original San Francisco Rush 2049 fue lanzado en 1999. Esta versión cuenta con una lista de cinco pistas jugables y ocho coches diferentes, con más coches desbloqueables a medida que el jugador progresa a través del juego. En cada etapa el jugador debe correr contra siete coches de la CPU. Las pistas contienen un total de 100 monedas que cuando se encuentran se desbloquean nuevos coches y trabajos de pintura.

San Francisco Rush 2049 fue lanzado a la Nintendo 64 y la Sega Dreamcast en el año 2000 por Midway Games. Las versiones de Nintendo 64 y Sega Dreamcast, como en la versión original de arcade, contienen los anuncios de Dickies y Slim Jim. Cuando se libera bajo licencia como Midway Arcade Treasures 3, los anuncios de Slim Jim fueron retirados y sustituidos por el logo de Midway Games. Todos los lanzamientos de la consola aparece una variación de la versión arcade, que es el de las alas stunt . La versión arcade no cuenta con la capacidad de ala stunt, que permite al jugador realizar maniobras en el aire mientras se desliza.

San Francisco Rush 2049 también fue lanzado a la Game Boy Color por Handheld Games y publicado por Midway Games. Las pistas se diferencian de las otras versiones, mientras que los coches son idénticos. La carrera se lleva a cabo desde una perspectiva top-down.

Midway tenía planes para crear un doble paquete de Hydro Thunder y San Francisco Rush 2049 bajo el nombre de Hydro Rush para la PlayStation 2, pero el juego fue cancelado, cuando el proyecto se trasladó a Midway Arcade Treasures 3.

The cabinet is a standard 2049 cabinet with lots of modifications. There is a new Quad Stereo amp in the unit to power the new speakers in the tail pipes. Inside each tail pipe is a speaker and an LED light array. There are also real 'taillights' built into the base of the seat. The shifter ball is supposed to be a mini 8-Ball. The gas pedal is a throwback to the 70's pedals that were shaped like a 'cave man' foot. To the right of the monitor bezel is a light tree that signals when you should stomp on the gas. It only works at the beginning of the game. The monitor bezel and marquee bezel are black, instead of the 2049 blue. The seat looks like it is a new design, although it may be the same as Crusin Exotica.

The hardware is very different from the 2049 design. This game runs on a PC- a Pentium III 933mhz with a Geforce 2 card. It uses a special security board to keep the game from being bootlegged. The security board connects via the USB port. If the board is not present, the game will not boot. You cannot run this sofware in a 2049 cabinet.

This prototype gives you a good idea of what the sequel to 2049 might have been. The tracks are very cool, and the graphics are much improved. It's too bad Midway did not see this through to completion. This would have been an awesome chapter in the Rush series.

Thanks for the info, and granted, this is a really cool game. And myself being a huge fan of Atari's Rush 2049, this game had been in my cross hairs for many years. It would have been awesome! But with all due respect, this proto has been known about and listed over at system16.com for many years now, and apparently the youtube video you linked to was uploaded in July of 2010, so that isn't exactly breaking news either. Is there any particular reason why you posted about this here and now? Was there a new development or progress made with the game? For example, did they crack the USB protection dongle and figure out how to program a pic chip for use on a Denver board set so we can copy the drive and play it in a standard 2049 cab? That would be sweet!

This game series demonstrates the following tropes:

• 555: In 2049 Tournament Edition, you are asked, as part of the process for creating an in-game account, to enter your phone number for tournaments (a feature that is now long-gone). If you enter 555 as your area code, you'll get a special message about it.
• The Alcatraz: In every single installment, barring the original arcade version, there is a course that is set on Alcatraz. Alcatraz in-game looks much bigger than its real-life counterpart.
• Arrange Mode: The N64 San Francisco Rush and Rush 2 have a tag mode where the game lasts 5 minutes and the player who is IT! tries to tag the other player's car to make them IT! Each player has a timer that counts up so long as they're IT!; whoever has less time on their clock when the game ends wins.
• Awesome, but Impractical: The Rocket in Rush 2, Has explosive acceleration and handling, and, unsurprisingly for a rocket on wheels, handles like an elephant on ice.
• Benevolent Architecture: Sure, the streets are cordoned off for the race, but someone still overlooked those ramps, subway tunnels, spacious sewer pipes, and hills that are just perfect for shortcuts.
• Bland-Name Product: Most of the cars are knockoffs of real ones, although a few are completely made up. Compact = Acura Integra R, Muscle Car = Corvette Sting Ray, Bruiser = Plymouth Hemi Cuda, Exotic & Super GT = Vector M12, Mobster = Chevy Fleetline, Sportster = Dodge Viper (RT-10 roof, but with GTS competition stripes), 4x4 = Ford Explorer, Protoype = Ford GT90 concept car, Euro LX = BMW Z9, Venom = Lamborghini Diablo, Concept = possibly the BMW Nazca C2, Panther = McLaren F1. The gas stations are also generic imitations of Shell, with the word "Fuel" and a smiley face in place of the shell logo.
• Capcom Sequel Stagnation: The Rock: Alcatraz Edition, an Updated Re-release of the arcade game, added four new tracks including the titular Alcatraz, new shortcuts on the original tracks, four new cars, and a few new music pieces. It was followed by the Wave Net edition, which featured online multiplayer.
• Cool, but Inefficient: 2049's Track 3 has a bridge ramp you can jump, and the game will measure your jump height. It is possible to get a jump height of over 100 by driving up one of the bridge rails, at which point the height counter will flash, but you get no gameplay advantage for it and you'll likely slow yourself down more than if you just jumped normally, if not outright make a crash landing.
• Cool Car: Some propelled by rockets, some with wings and all get bonus points for doing wicked midair spins.
• Damage-Proof Vehicle: In 2049, you can make your car go end over end, and, unlike other Rush games, where this trope is averted, if you manage to land on your wheels, the car will be completely undamaged... usually.
• Decade-Themed Filter: The Playstation intro starts in this manner, using jumpy film stock and vintage piano music, and being presented in black and white. It quickly fades to color though.
• Destroy the Product Placement: Rush 2: Extreme Racing USA rewards you for collecting all of the Mountain Dew cans in a given course with a special Mountain Dew car. Like all of the other playable cars in the game, you're free to blow it up by crashing it into a wall or some other stationary object.
• Difficult, but Awesome: The shortcuts. It's fairly easy to crash while taking a shortcut, but get through without bursting into pieces and you'll put yourself at an advantage.
• Early-Installment Weirdness: The Alcatraz course first appears in the N64 version as a Secret Level, but in a far different state than how it would appear in later games, with less guardrails, looser turns, heavier use of generic textures, and less flashy shortcuts.
• Easter Egg:
• In San Francisco Rush Track 2, if you can jump across the gap in the Bay Bridge, you'll find a hidden half-pipe stunt area with advertisements for Mace: The Dark Age, one of Midway's other games.
• In the console ports of San Francisco Rush and Rush: The Rock, Track 6 (7 in The Rock) has a hidden cavern where the Sutro Baths would be containing a two-story stunt arena.
• Energy Weapon: In battle mode.
• Every Car Is a Pinto:
• Your car will instantly explode if flipped upside down, no exceptions. Or if you crash at a certain speed.
• Rush 2 adds a "Suicide" mode which exaggerates this trope, found in the cheat menu. Even TOUCHING another car causes both cars to explode, with especially hilarious results at the beginning of an 8-car race when the CPU-controlled opponents inevitably bump into each other. However, turning the Suicide setting to "Humans" will cause only human-controlled cars to exhibit this behavior.
• Expansion Pack:
• The arcade version of 2049 got two of them: The Tournament Edition which adds some now-defunct tournament functionality, and the Special Edition which adds the two courses from the console versions with some new paths and shortcuts.
• With an N64 Expansion Pak you can unlock 2 more tracks and an additional circuit in 2049.
• Fake Longevity: The console versions' Circuit Modes are as long as they are because they use not only the base versions of the tracks, but also their reversed, mirrored, and reversed-and-mirrored variations, resulting in four times as many rounds as there are unique tracks.
• Fauxrrari: Most of the cars in the series are knockoffs of real ones, although a few are completely made up. The Compact is an Acura Integra R, the Muscle Car is a Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray, the Bruiser is a Plymouth Hemi Cuda, the Exotic and Super GT are based on the Vector M12, the Mobster is a Chevy Fleetline, the Sportster is a Dodge Viper (RT-10 roof, but with GTS competition stripes), the 4x4 is a Ford Explorer, the Prototype is a Ford GT90 concept car, the Euro LX is a BMW Z9, the Venom is a Lamborghini Diablo, the Concept is a BMW Nazca C2, and the Panther is a McLaren F1. The gas stations are also generic imitations of Shell, with the word "Fuel" and a smiley face in place of the shell logo.
• Final Death Mode: In the console ports, turning on "Death Mode" causes any car that explodes to remain gone for the remainder of the race. If no player cars are remaining, it's a Game Over. Subverted in the circuit modes; dying will end the race but still allow you to move on to the next round.
• Formula with a Twist: The series changed the racing game formula by having much of its draw be the crazy physics that allowed cars to tumble through the air and even explode. A number of players don't even bother with the actual racing and just want to pull off as many wacky and zany stunts as possible.
• Harder Than Hard:
• The "Extreme"-level cars in San Francisco Rush.
• In the console versions, turning up the difficulty reduces the time limit.
• In Rush 2049, the "Extreme" handling level.
• Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels: Of a sort, in arcade games other than 2049: as you go up the car list to more difficult-to-use cars, an increasingly urgent car alarm plays. When you get to "Extreme", an "IT'S DANGEROUS!" sample followed by a scream track plays as well.
• Invisible Wall: Sometimes you'll be scraping the side barrier 50 feet up in the air, although it does help you stay on track.
• Jenny's Number: The arcade versions of 2049 feature a numeric keypad for entering account passwords and entering cheat codes in mid-race. In the case of the former, entering the number loads a profile named Jenny, while for the latter, entering 8675309 followed by the pound key (to confirm input) simply results in a Game Over.
• Jump Physics: Let's just say that flying over the top of the stunt levels is far from unusual, and the things you can do with that amount of airtime are absurd, to say the least.
• Later-Installment Weirdness:
• The console versions of 2049 remove the arcade-style time limit, when even previous console games have it (and in which the timer can only be disabled with cheats), and allow you to open wings to control your vehicle's orientation in the air.
• L.A. Rush is nothing like the rest of the series, drawing more inspiration from Need for Speed: Underground with a touch of Pimp My Ride by featuring an open world and visual car customization, with backing by licensing West Coast Customs as the entity tricking out your ride.
• Level in Reverse: The console versions allow you to reverse or mirror each course, or even apply both effects. In addition, the Circuit mode not only has you race on the vanilla variants of each course, but also each course's reversed, mirrored, and reversed-mirrored versions.
• Minus World: The "underworld" underneath the track, which can be accessed by glitching through the ground or jumping off the track where the Invisible Wall is absent. In most cases though, landing outside the track resets your position.
• Mission-Pack Sequel: The various arcade games are Mission Pack Sequels of the original; while the tracks and graphics have changed, the fundamental gameplay and emphasis on real-world physics does not. The home console versions add additional modes that don't involve racing around a track.
• Modern Stasis: 2049 has futuristic buildings and a few futuristic cars, but most of the cars are straight out of the 20th century. And there are contemporary gas stations, subway trains, cable cars, windmills, boats, etc.
• Multi-Platform: As noted, 2049 was released simultaneously on the Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast. As well as LA Rush.
• New York Subway: Available as shortcuts in Rush 2's New York courses.
• No Fair Cheating: Trying to get keys in the console ports? Sorry, you can't pick them up in practice mode! Subverted, in that you can just enter the "no time limit" cheat and play the basic race mode, then get the keys with no issue.
• Nostalgia Level: The Alcatraz course, which debuted in San Francisco Rush: The Rocknote it actually first appeared in the N64 port of the original game as a Secret Level, albeit with a different look and layout, is the only course to be revisited in subsequent games, specifically Rush 2 and 2049.
• Number of the Beast: Entering in 666 as your number in the arcade version of 2049 loads a profile named "Devil!" with most of the cars and paintjobs unlocked.
• Numerical Hard: The only things that the difficulty settings change in the console versions is how much time you start with and how much you gain from a checkpoint (if checkpoints are set to give time extensions).
• One-Hit Kill:
• In the N64 games, the "cones into mines" cheat will turn all traffic cones into mines that will instantly detonate your car upon contact. There is another cheat that also turns cones into mines but on contact transforms your car into a mine that will instantly destroy the next opponent that you touch.
• In Rush 2, the Suicide cheat causes cars that touch each other to explode instantly.
• Rush 2's Killer Rats cheat turns the rats in the New York courses from harmless objects that can be run over into bigger, malicious-looking rats that will instant-kill you on contact.
• Product Placement:
• Mountain Dew cans act as collectibles in Rush 2. Collecting all of them on a course will unlock a special Mountain Dew car just for that course.
• Billboards for Electronic Gaming Monthly and other Atari games such as California Speed and Area 51 appear in the games.
• Recycled with a Gimmick:
• Fifty years in the future by the time of the release of 2049, hence its futuristic setting.
• Rush 2, which is Rush in places other than San Francisco. Which is also the reason it dropped the "San Francisco" part of the title.
• Reformulated Game: The first game was reprogrammed on the PlayStation due to the system's lack of an FPU.
• Re-Release Soundtrack: The Midway Arcade Treasures 3 version of The Rock had the arcade soundtrack replaced with similar songs. The N64 version of Rush 2049 had a completely new soundtrack, with some of its songs carrying over to the Dreamcast and MAT 3 versions, which otherwise retained the original arcade soundtrack.
• Rule of Cool: Why cars have wings in the home version of 2049, and the stunts. The first race in the first game allows you to drive under an 18-wheeler semi, vault up eight stories to land on top of an apartment building, then drive back down to the street level with a sizable lead... if you can pull it off, of course.
• Secret Level:
• In the N64 version of the original game, the Alcatraz course is available as the seventh and final track, although it must be unlocked by winning the Circuit Mode trophy (or entering a Password Save to bypass that) and then perfoming a series of button commands. It has a similar layout to the version seen in later games, although it is missing a lot of elements. Later games either make it available by default (Rush: The Rock and Rush 2) or with a more straightforward unlock method (Rush 2049, where you just need to grind mileage).
• In Rush 2, the Midway course can be unlocked by winning Circuit Mode. The course is a trip through the Midway headquarters; depending on your interpretation either the office is giant-sized or the cars are toy-sized.
• Shortcuts Make Long Delays: Many of the shortcuts are more hazardous than sticking to the main route, resulting in the player crashing if they are careless (and a Game Over if "Death" is turned on).
• Spikes of Doom: Cheat codes in the console ports of San Francisco Rush and Rush 2 turn the traffic cones into spiky mines. Depending on which of the two cheats you enter, they'll either blow you up upon contact, which renders coned-off shortcuts practically unusable, or turn your car into a mine that will blow up one other car on contact before reverting back to normal form.
• Take That!: In the arcade version of 2049, entering 8675309 (as in "867-5309/Jenny" by Tommy Tutone) and then hitting the pound/Enter key during gameplay results in an instant Game Over.
• This Is Gonna Suck: Selecting an "Extreme" level car in San Francisco Rush will cause a voice clip to shout "IT'S DANGEROUS!" In the console port, the "IT'S DANGEROUS!" clip plays as soon as you highlight the car, rather than when you actually select it.
• Timed Mission: Extreme Racing USA has two types of timers you can use. One is the traditional arcade timer, where crossing checkpoints extends it. The other instead just gives you a big time limit that cannot be extended.
• Timelapse: The Playstation version intro is done in this manner, with a car driving at fast speed through San Francisco traffic.
• Title Scream:
• "3, 2, 1, RUSH!"
• "WHAT'S YO NAME?!"
• Truck Driver's Gear Change: The first game implements this very poorly in several songs. For example, "Blue Fog" and "Rave Rush", which begin with a single song and then repeat the exact same song a semitone higher.
• Updated Re-release:
• San Francisco Rush: The Rock Alcatraz Edition, which adds the courses from the console ports and a new Alcatraz course* though technically, the Alcatraz course is also in the console ports, just hidden and with a fairly different layout, as well as new cars. A later revision allowed arcade-to-arcade online matching.
• San Francisco Rush 2049: Tournament and Special Edition. The former adds support for tournaments, though strips the unique fonts used in the original version. The latter adds two new courses.
• Vehicular Combat: Battle Mode, where you have to defeat other vehicles instead of winning a race.
• Wacky Racing: The sheer amount of physics-defying stunts you'll pull off in a single race definitely fits this trope.
• Walk on Water: Except when it just resets you because you're not supposed to be there.
