Finally got this after it was lost in the mail for ages :P
They sent me the Asian version which has no online play
wtf
The game loads constantly for long periods of time...
The only benefit to the Asian version is the English manual:
MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service
;o
I've never played one of these Initial D racers before but the gameplay is quite fun and I always love me some drifting.
Graphics are... a bit above PS2 but... meh.
So far it's a 7/10.
