Super Runabout: San Francisco Edition (スーパーランナバウト 〜サンフランシスコ エディション〜 Sūpā Rannabauto 〜San Furanshisuko Edishon〜), known in Europe as Super Runabout: The Golden State, is a video game developed by Climax Entertainment for the Dreamcast in 2000. It is the sequel to the PlayStation game Felony 11-79, which was known in Japan as Runabout.
Development
Released in Japan as Super Runabout (スーパーランナバウト Sūpā Rannabauto), it is the first iteration for the Dreamcast. An updated version was made and released in the US as Super Runabout: San Francisco, possibly for easier name recognition and to be more commercial friendly. Released in PAL districts as Super Runabout: The Golden State and finally in Japan again as Super Runabout: San Francisco (the updated version).

The game received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[3] Greg Orlando of NextGen said, "Mindlessly fun and often breathlessly destructive, Interplay's car-wreck opus Super Runabout succeeds in spite of its graphics and control issues. There are clipping and collision problems galore, and some of the game's vehicles handle like an oiled sled on ice, but the game remains both eminently enjoyable and highly playable."[14] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 31 out of 40.[7] GameFan gave the game an above-average review about two months before its U.S. release date.[9]
