I hope it is cool. I enjoyed the anime and live action movie.

If this is a direct port of the arcade game it was a lot of fun. In the arcade you would select a car and receive a game card to track your progress on any arcade machine anywhere. You would build points to upgrade you car each time you put your card in. I guess it would be similar without the card. A much more arcadey version of GT. It's definitely a fun arcade game. Not sure how it will translate to a controller experience. But should definitely be worth a rental.

The game is about 4-5 years old. So bare that in mind.

The first three ID games were Naomi based. The new version (ID4) is built on the Lindbergh hardware and is the basis for the PS3 port. Lindbergh is only about 18 months old and also powers the absolutely gorgeous VF5.
It's not going to push the PS3 to its limit, but it's no Dreamcast game, either.

It's a blast in the arcade. But almost any driving game is a blast with the force feedback steering wheels and metaaaal petaaals.

The arcade version is pretty fun. Nice and fast and drifty. Would be a blast with a force feedback wheel. Certainly worth a look if they don't try to charge $59 for it.

Hmmm i've only played the arcade versions. Never even knew there were console versions lol.
Eh it was pretty fun in the arcades... used up my 50 races on my damn card though. Had an STi and owned up the likes of Akina and ... whoa I already forgot the names of the other maps. Ah well.

Sorry if this is off-topic, but I thought that, for the sake of those who haven't purchased the Playstation Eye/Eye of Judgment bundle, I would quickly drop a line to mention that I just saw it on Amazon selling for $48.99 (qualifies for free shipping). Don't know if we can post links here, so I won't, but it's fairly easy to find :)

Keep up the good work Nick
And this game could do with some touch ups, worst graphics equals faster download thru PSN I guess.

Much like the anime, this game is made for a really small niche audience who enjoys the ins and outs of street racing and who care about arcade style racing more then graphics. Personally, it was the first anime that I watched that didn't have guns, ninjas, and/or big robots. I would recommend both the game and the anime to anyone looking for a change to the usual stuff they watch/play.
