MY impression so far :
+ great variety of licenced japanese cars
+ massive amount of tuners ( HKS, Amuse, Tanabe, 5zigen, etc etc )
+ great special cars ( D1 Grand Prix cars, tuner demo cars from Jun, MCR, HKS etc etc
can't be found elsewhere in this variety )
+ nice handling somewhere in between Sim and Arcade
+ good choice of tracks : Tokyo & Osaka, Tsukuba, Suzuka, T1, Nikko
+ solid grafics with some nice effects
+ races at night / in rain
+ Pokemon effect : many rivals and you want to beat them all
+ tuning is very detailed : from engine over aero to merchandising... different
garage layouts
+ great variety of game modes ( Time Attack, SP Battle etc )
- sound is only average
- no 16 : 9 widescrren option
- there could be more tracks
- EU / US cars ? ( maybe they get unlocked )
- I'm missing the underground aspect : Beating rivals in Shutokou Battle was more
fun ( traffic etc ) than just beating them in a grand prix atmosphere...
- too easy ? Started with a used tuned Integra (230 hp) still not a single car had
the slightest chance...
- acceleration / braking with the right analog stick does not work perfect : A
minimal movement of the stick ( problem : standart postition not exaclty in the
middle ) results in acceleration : If you stop accelerating by taking your 👍
away from the stick your car will go on accelerating in 3 of 5 times....
These are only my first impressions after about 3 hours of playing...
Do you share my opinion or have you a different one ?

I noticed this too, but I thought it might have been the pad (I bought it the same day as the game, good to know I don't have to take the pad back
), but yes, it is very annoying.I got the game yesterday and played it a few hours yesterday and a few today and being a big fan of Genki and all there previous games I had no hesitation that however this game turned out to be that I was going to like it and it was gonna be no worse then there previous racer KB2.
So far the game is pretty easy which is kinda disappointing in a way cause KB1 and KB2 werent anywhere near this easy but some of the DP races as you progress are a little more difficult since to beat the rival it requires in one race I played, 60000 points.
Does anyone know how to chainlink the rivals when you start a battle cause I tried a few things and it didnt work also does anyone know if you get more money if you link the battles rather then racing each rival one by one? Thanks.

Hmm wow... I thought that my pads have lost their precision over the years... Well
I got used to it in a way... I mean most time I accelerate anyway...

Yeah, it has the Tofu Shop sticker + the light (yellow), but it's not a GT-Apexbyronl

This game is great, lots o' fun but needs some major translation for all this japanese.
Menu stuff is pretty easy but I can't understand the BBS stuff.
Customization is great, Kaido Battle stuff, but with more options. Obviously everything is JDM oriented, but this is the kind of customization I wish GT would offer. Especially the custom dashboard gauges, really nice.
Car handling is arcadish, very slippery and drift-happy. I find it difficult to control with the DFP because the car handling is very momentum-based. Meaning if you tilt the steering towards one direction all the weight shifts really fast and car is drifting - countering steering will make it even worse.
Water & Oil temperatures play a role in the game, although I havn't figured out how it affects the car yet, because they overheat very fast (almost 5 minutes into every race)

anyone knows how to deal with the car's condition?
i wasnt talking about the oil, water temp and also the tires when racing.... but i found out anyways

Oh god, all the Japanese in this game.
Man.
Eh, I bought a second hand Altezza and just did the first race. But man, it's confusing.
It seems nice though, it's got those Automodelista elements with the Garage setting up and buying stuff for it.
Yay I found the suspension buying part.
God this game needs translation.

Ok this is a big Bump for this thread.
Mainly because MistaX is too fat to search for it himself.
Although i'm going to start playing this now, seeing as I recently printed out the translated menus. I doubt anyone will care though.
Oh yeah MistaX is fat lol.
