SEGA Initial D Extreme Stage - PlayStation 3 PS3 Game (Japan Import) | Best Price | Racing Simulation for Arcade-Style Drifting & Car Customization

Love Initial D? You will love this game.I loved the anime, and found this game just browsing Amazon.Super fun, all japanese text. Just use a camera app on your phone to read the japanese if you can't figure out the menu. There are usually only 2-5 choices as is, you'll figure it out.I had to set up a profile to play my first time, and got to racing within 5 minutes. There is an english alphabet on the keyboard to name your character in English, but the default keyboard that pops up is in japanese. There are a bunch of cars you can choose to start off with. Pick something that is powerful enough, because the missions will have you going the usual downhill races, but some mix it up by going UPHILL too. I haven't played enough to see if it makes a difference, but I picked the 86, and it's obviously slower off the line and straight aways than R32/R34 or the FD, so I'm going to assume it won't even be close once I play the bosses on the Uphill levels.You get to race about 5 mountain passes, with 4-5 bosses on each one. Mt. Akina is pretty sweet, with Takumi being the boss level. I'm sucking pretty bad in my first 2 hours playing this, so I can't even get to him.
