Low budget re-release of Sega's great arcade game racer
This game is identical to the first print (apart from the cover artwork)
描述
Initial D: Special Stage is a racing game based on the hit anime Initial D and Sega Rosso's hit arcade racer Initial D: Arcade Stage. The PS2 version will feature a new Story Mode which differs from the arcade version. The story progresses by clearing the mission of each stage. There are a total of 11 courses, 31 playable vehicles and animated cartoon cutscenes throughout the game.
A great game I just got mine last Thursday. It's a great game I should say, it has a fast learning curve, even though the Japanese language can set you off for a while. Thanks play-asia for the fast delvery!

=D Very good game. Plays just like V2. Although if u understand the arcade physics, or ur a good player in IDAS V2 OR V3... this game might be very easy to begin with. Some of the courses that aren't included in V2 or V3 will be a challenge... This game lasts very long...
I love it! I've played this briefly in the arcades, and I just got this for my Japanese PS2. I love it! I definitley enjoy the fact that you are playing a game that is in "Japan" mountainside. It makes me feel like I'm right there, racing the hillsides with my homies, outside of Osaka and Tokyo.
Screens are not that hard to understand, but the storyline is impossible, if you don't speak Japanese. I don't, so I might look for a little translation help.
This was included as part of a package I bought on another website, but I would say its worth at least US$20.00. Not more than US$40.00. US$34.99 seems like a fair price to me. I like the idea of seeing the racers and the cars they are associated with. I would like to see a sexy girl racer in the next outing. That would be sweet!

This looks good Just got this game from an auction and looking forward to playing it. Played in arcades a few times. Lacking in some areas, but excellent in others. Should be fun!

Good, with some flaws If you've played in the arcade, then you know what to expect here. However, the physics are considerably different from the latest arcade game (v3) - I've heard it's based on the older v2. It controls very well with Logitech's force feedback wheels, but sensitivity is nothing like the arcade version, and you have to use the d-pad to shift on the Driving Force or DF Pro. As mentioned, there is no 2 player mode, at all. It's still great fun for getting your fix, though, and I've spent countless hours playing Special Stage. The addition of the reasonably lengthy Story mode, a selection of nearly 3 dozen songs, and several new courses adds immensely to the replay value.
