I really hope that the online play works outside of Japan...

Oh yeah, for sure. I remembr breaking my friends Logitec GT wheel twice (me once on Happo and him on Akagi) while playing special stage. G25 wheel for the win. I'm excited for this release sinceI didn't really play it in the arcades (and they announced ver 5 play testing soon, so it's not like I'm going to sink lots of money into it).

It's been released in HK now. I can't wait to get my hands on it. I would get my friend in HK to rush ship me a copy, but it does not have online mode for sure. I'm willing to take the risk of waiting for the JPN version for the *hope* of online play.

This out already? Neat, I'll go pick it up tomorrow (its 11:34pm right now). Not like there's any chance of it coming out in the US anyways.

Went out and bought it from the Yodobashi Camera in Yokohama. I only have an sdtv available right now, game looks a bit jaggy. Basically looks like a couple year old arcade racer, which it is. Should look much better once I get access to my my lcdtv. I can't read kanji though, so I can't really tell how to get online yet. I'll try to take it online in a bit.

I've seen some videos of this game, and it looks REALLY bad, you must be pretty big fans of the anime for this one.

Internet was down before I left this morning so I didn't get to check reviews. At least there are tons of Japanese people playing online. Good news is its arcade perfect. Bad news is the arcade game looks 3 years old. You pretty much have to play in first person. Controls are too twitchy to play in 3rd. Doesn't look too much better than a ps2 game. Its fun, but I wouldn't recommend importing it for full price.

I'm keeping my eye on it, I really like Initial D and it doesn't really bother me that visuals are sub-par. As long as the music and voice acting is in tact, I will gladly play it.

I've been playing for a while now and I have to say that online is a BLAST! There are always people to race and a lot of my battles have been close...

I started with the controller and now I'm using a wheel. The game is okay with the controller but it's GREAT with the wheel. I imporved on my times by 3 seconds in TA the FIRST time I used it. If you're a ID fan, BUY THiS GAME!
