Dodging bullet spreads and snap-shooting bosses is everything
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Time-attack against scripted AI; no adaptation.
Sunset Riders
Bandits and bosses cycle memorisable arcade patterns
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Sega Rally Championship
Fixed tracks; nothing hidden after first lap.
Sunset Riders
Spawns are deterministic each credit

Learning racing lines per surface converges quickly.
