Talking Vid of my GS

Heh heh...not my REAL GS. I just picked up Tokyo Extreme Racer 3 and just got the GS300 and modded it a bit. Grrr...sucks there's just only one bodykit for the GS...the veilside style...but it's still cool.

Yeah, neither did I...'til I raced one...the LS430 is there too. But what's really cool, that it's only $20. I guess they made enough money over in Japan so they didn't need to make as much here.

Nice Vid, love watching the replay. Although this one has lots of brand names wheels on there but there ain't much to choose from for the Gs. yeah I wish there were more kits to choose from too like the Tokyo Extreme Racer 2.

Yeah, I've got TXR zero... How does this one compare? Zero is pretty fun, lots of cars, lots of customization

Here are some differences I gleamed from others:

<<<

Physics are a bit nicer, the SP system is still the same. Weather will affect handling.

Customization is better, you can choose any of the part of an aero piece and have 3 material choices for their weight.

Graphics are improved (yet it's no NFSU. Which is all that game has going for it [graphics]).

Cars a licensed, no more chassis numbers. Also, no Hondas. There are a lot of nice cars- Lotus Esprit, Detamaso Pantera, Corvette, others...

You can change a car's entire body paint (if you have the patience) and it's free! no more do you pay to change your cars apearance.. you can just select new colors or you can actually paint it with a little built in paint program.. you can also tint the window whatever color you want and make then more or less tinted.
you can put stickers wherever you want, resize and flip em, even make your own stickers i guess.

you can (and will) race two cars at once, you have to beat both to win the challenge.

there is much more highway.. there's three different areas to start in, tokyo, osaka and the area i always forget the name of.. each of those sections works basically like the one did in txr0 such as you start on just one section, and once you beat every rival in that area you can move on.. except this time instead of just another road connecting to where you started opening up.. you move to one of the other two sections first, such as from osaka to tokyo, then ya beat that and move to the third area.. then i guess you can go wherever and new roads will be open, not sure...

there is 600+ rivals this time.

and for the cars check here:
http://www.genki.co.jp/games/sb01/game/frame5.html

tho i actually don't think that's quite all of them.. cuz there's atleast one returning person from txr0 that i don't see a car for.. depressed angel (or whatever her name is) altho i guess maybe it could be not shown seperately, i'd think it would be since she was one of the 13 devils iirc.

Kinda Werid a racer game with no hondaz in it. And it seems there aren't much other cars on the highway except the Pace Van. Not like Tokyo Extreme Racer 2 , it has taxis and trucks.
