Incredably addicting!!!

User Rating: 10 | Shutokou Battle 01 (PlayStation 2 the Best) PS2
By far the best tokyo extreme racer to date. The graphics smooth the gameplay is just right. The sights and sounds all take me to tokyo without physically being there. I love the Tokyo Extreme Racer series but this game is undoubtedly the best in the series. If you haven't played any of the 5 games I believe then get yourself a copy of 3 and quick because it is slowly getting harder to find. This game is a rare underrated gem. My one word of advice is to not follow gamespot review scores ever! This game has a great rivals system where you are always racing new cars and different types of modified cars. Its all Highway battle so watch out for traffic. All races are gauged by an SP bar or your spirit points so don't expect to race a point to point race. You win by outclassing your opponent for as long as you can hold him off and his SP reduces to zero. You can uprade so many cars that possiblities are endless. The best part is they are generous in this game(unlike the others) with the money won from battles so you don't have to worry about never having enough just keep racing cause your gonna have to beat over 600 racers! Its a good long racing game with so many areas to unlock and so many cars to customize. So get started today!!
