Classic Game Room HD reviews TOKYO XTREME RACER 3 for the Playstation 2. Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 on PS2 is a driving/combat/strategy game where players race against rival gangs with silly names on the highways of Japan. Unlike previous games in the series, Tokyo Extreme Racer 3 has roads winding through the freeway systems of Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. They all look pretty similar though, dark with some neon on buildings. Even though TXR3 is technically a driving game the game's strength is in the competition, customization and highly addictive gameplay. Drive cars from major manufacturers like Toyota, Nissan and Hyundai. Win money and supercharge them with 600 hp engines and get sucked into the addiction that is Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3. Even if the game is impossible to finish (because of a glitch), for a reasonable price you'll get weeks of enjoyment and competition from this sub par driving game that is a wildly fun highway combat game. This CGR review of Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 has gameplay from the PS2 version of Tokyo Extreme Racer 3 on Playstation 2.
Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero had licensed cars. The reason why they all had different names is because each car went by their chassis code name instead of using their model names. Thats why most people are so confused when they find that their favourite cars bear a strange code name.
actually thats partially true. They went by their chassis code but were still unlicensed. If you emulate it and upscale the resolution, the badges are all slightly modified (ex: instead of Mazda RX-7, the badge would say MADDA RR7, or Olivia instead of nissan silvia)
Subsistence yeah, the R32 is named Nippon RYI
@@Subsistence97 or tbe 300ZX would say P00ZX 😂
I have import tuner challenge with bad spelling and to beat the final boss you have to defeat all bosses, teams and wanderers
It became a huge failure not only from these, but lacks cars and the XBOX 360 isn't popular in Japan, making it bad and bullshit
The driving isn't nearly as bad as it seems, cars can't just turn on a dime at 150 mph in real life.
This game is incredibly in depth not only in the tuning aspect but the game it's self. Being able to to race certain cars on certain days or certain directions, changing weather, water and oil temp to monitor (unlike other games), and the infamous wanderers, which can only be raced under certain conditions.
This game was fantastic and i can only hope they make a reincarnation of it
The driving is awful. The cars handle like utter ass...just absolutely slippery all the time, almost like drift cars I suppose. But it's still fun, and addictive, particularly if you love jdm cars, not to mention rpg elements of unlocking better parts for your car and boss and super boss battles in car forms. Id say this game influenced me in real life nearly 20 years later my real life daily is a clean jdm (rhd) 1994 MR2 GT-S that I had imported from Japan. And he's right speed is everything, hp/weight, brakes aren't particularly important compared to those.
Txr 3 handling is a lot better than zero, the skyline felt like it was pivoting but on a point through corners
Hit the nail on the head
you forgot to mention the engine swapping when you have so many miles on a car, as well as the hidden nitrous cheat!
Its the ability to max out your turbo wastgate pressure. Not Nitrous, you hit the select button with any turbo car. but you have to adjust it in the car setting menu.
No, its nitrous, there is no wastegate on N/A cars, and the nitrous cheat only works on n/a cars.
well never mind then lol
Daniel Philpott lol its true and i tried that with my Mercedes Benz S600L. just google that glitch
I put a skyline engine on my evo 6 and thats how i beat the game for the 1st time , didnt knew about the boost cheat untill i beat the game many times , then my rx8 that dint pass 180mph was doing 270mph spiding flames out the tires jajajaja
If you play this on ps2 emu with the wheel mod plugin, and a Logitech wheel (dfp or g25-7), you can erase the dead zone and have more fun than on gt4. This game handles like wangan midnight (without the annoying card system and almost undriftable handling).
Hey I know this was two years ago lol but were you able to setup your h-shifter as well? You probably cant even remember haha
I think this game is better than the 360 version
Hello, this is Crave Entertainment, we made this game and we approve this video!
thats not you
Surely you're trolling us
The game was developed by Genki
I think Mark has been playing this game wrong because I'm only on day 22 and I have roughly 200,000 CP. In the TXR games, its best to save up your money until you know you have the money to buy all those parts for that car.
using chassis codes as names was a good way around licensing in previous games, which limited car selection for TXR3.
Okay, fuck it. I'm buying a ps2 again just for this
Because Wangan Midnight.
Far from it actually
They copied the initial D game on ps2 and changed the name
But from your channel I can tell your a hipster and to young to know what that is and surprises me that you even know of wangan midnight too 🤣🤣🤣 the guy who paints his cars bright colors looking like skittles
@@sasukeuchihaanbucapt okay so bright coloured cars were a huge thing in both american street racing and JDM highway racing, you claim its "far from it actually" even though they literally share some devs and objectively have similar handling and are both JDM highway racers
also the fact you say "They copied the initial D game on ps2 and changed the name" just shows you know nothing about what your talking about they have completely different handling and one is a highway racer (LIKE WANGAN MIDNIGHT) and the other is mountain racing or Touge racing
stop trying to use your age to bolster your arguments your age proves nothing when we have all the information throughout all of history at our fingertips get over yourself please
i think this is the best racing game i've ever played...no other racing game has actually given me chills during a race....
One of my top 10 ps2 games....so good.
Crave is dead, not Genki. Genki is just chilling in the background of the game industry for the time being
They needa make a #4
That sideways block was amazing!
Making those yellow minivans the only other cars on the road was a bizarre decision
im pretty sure it had something to do with the licensed cars this time around, and trying to present the races as less obviously illegal street racing with yellow "official" vans in order to appease the car companies
Listening to the in game music I think I now know what music having a seizure sounds like...
I can't even remember how many times I've replayed this game...soooi addictive
If i remember correctly, there is a 1982-86 Pontiac Firebird T/A with a Iron Duke I4 in that game.
Yup 🐢
and when it's fully tuned it makes almost 500 hp :/
THE IRON DUKE lol what a motor
DAT 2:13 RECOVERY
I had this game when i was little and i didnt even know how to get out of the garage -.,-
I got this game because of this review and I've gotta thank CGR for that. The whole soap with lead blocks thing is the best way to describe it once you've played it. It take quite a while, but it was just so addicting. Though I would say the wanderer racers condition to race them are so insane, you need a guide just to figure out how to get to them. I love it all the same though, and I wish I could see a true sequel. Thanks CGR for the recommendation.
Same for me. Played zero to completion (100%). Something oddly satisfying figuring out how to get a handle on that soap with lead blocks things.
play this game when you're 12. I did, and if you're that young and chase after a pure car love then dude this game is the best of the best. but the days of showing up to you neighbors house with a memory card to put it on the line has passed. it's a classic.
Hah! The guitar in that music track is so screechy! lmao!
Love it.
I've only ever played the demo of Tokyo Xtrememe Racer on the Dreamcast, but I couldn't get enough of it.
Sadly, in those days I was a bit broke and never managed to get the full game. When stacked against bigger titles of the time, it just never happened.
Something like this would still sell very well, I think.
should review the real first one...
Tokyo Highway Battle on PS1
I would love it if there was a ps3 version of this with txr3 mechanix that allows multiplayer could you imagine 30 people on one track online having your own teams and what not
ive been playing this game for almost 9 years... i finally got my FD rx7 up to 250 mph :D
I love this series, too bad genki went out of business. I wish there was more I feel shorter by the lack of cars in import tuner but I still love it.
They need this game for the PS3
Because the GT5's special stage is just a part of the Tokyo highway, but the Tokyo Xtreme Racer contains every part of the Tokyo highway. You can even choose different route when you're driving. That's a biggest charm of the series. In fact, they are the actual highway in Tokyo, they really exist! You may see it on the map!
It's the same with "Street Supremacy" on the PSP. It's actually a Tokyo Highway Challenge but now with real car licenses. It's weird when you drive a car that looks like a Nissan Skyline and it's really called like that in the game :P
I love that game
i love the way it has real roads, you cant beat that.
Even I do the same thing to the driver thats faster than me on this game. block and pin them in. its the only way to beat them if your car is slower than theirs.
@ratmphan Actually TXR is the first illegal street racing franchise. Midnight Club is the 2nd and NFS joined the style around 2003.
TXR/Import Tuner Challenge is about highway racing and TXR Drift is about Touge racing.
i have this on ps2 and its super addicting, its cool when u race the bosses like the blue skyline and you see lightning come outta it lol
Love the Shutoku Battle game series. You should review the Saturn version as well.
actually... those silly names on the cars actually do exist... this is a replica of how Japanese races in "JAPAN" and the names on the car are actually what Japanese calls it... they don't say Honda NSX or Toyota Supra or Nissan GTR... They call the car by its body style... by that meaning they call the car by its serial number of the body style... just wanted to add that into the comment so viewers who doesn't know about this can have a bit of more insight...
the trick to these older racing games is to use the d-pad
one of my favourite racing games
When I played, brakes were useful, like the faster you get around the corner without losing so, the better, I had situations where I miss judged the amount I needed to brake so I hit the wall, which slowed me down a lot, and the ai being so stupid, uses the turbo boost, and Leroy jenkins into the wall, hitting me and the wall
What version of tokyo xtreme racer is better ? Lets vote !
Thumb up =
Dreamcasts Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2
Thumb down =
PS2:s Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3
Discuss :)
yeah i love the series... i cant disagree the handling physics arent great, the backgrounds are dull, but is fun as hell
i played the Japanese version of the game back in 2003 its called Zero One ... and i had a Toyota Camry ... the trick is to try not over heat the oil temp & water temp. Good game back then.
I think this onen is better than the 360.version to the sheer amount for cars. Had almost every used car I've ever bought
I enjoyed this game a lot back then but I was really disappointed that there were no Honda's at all in TXR3. I was hoping to use a NSX or even an Integra but they omitted that brand out of this game compared to the previous installment, Zero.
We need modern TXR game.
These games use the same network of roads that Wangan Maximum Tune Uses (C1, Osaka, Yokohane, etc)
4:39 That's seriously some catchy car modifying music.
I happen to own this game myself, and it's just fantastic. I've actually beat most of the 600 rivals in this game.
Having played this one with a proper force feedback wheel, I have to say the driving is freaking brilliant! It almost feels sim like, with unexpectingly good force feedback for the time. Somehow I feel they made these games with wheel users in mind..
Try proffesional drift d1 grand prix series with a wherl
I had ITC for the 360. Very addictive game.
it says on wikipedia The North American release of this game cannot be completed without the aid of a game enhancement device. "Whirlwind Fanfare" requires the player to have 100,000,000 CP, which is normally unattainable as the maximum amount of CP a player can have is 99,999,990.
It's impossible to beat Gran Turismo 2 too. Turns out that a race was taken out but the game was not programmed to know that and the completion percentage is roughly 98.5 or so.
The 1 thing I HATE about freeroam games with cars is the back ground buildings it just gets on my nerves that I can't EXPLORE because of lack of roads.
yeah and pretty much all of these should be re-released in HD, i would love a HD version of the burnout collection
@TheFlight815 Actually, you're wrong. They don't call them by chassis number in Japan. They did that in the earlier games so they wouldn't have to pay for the license.
Hey man, you can finish tokyo extreme racer 3 i did, you have to beat all wanderes...but heres the tricky part... you have to have "certain" parts on your car for wanderes to appear out of no where, Like a certain rim, certain liscence plate number, or for example being in a old mazda while it's raining ...and so on, Theres a active guide and forum on people who finished this game..
Also if you check the rivals profile gives you a clue to what you need to do for your car so you can race them.
Interesting how he mentions Honda NSXs and Integras in this review, even though there are no Hondas to be found in TXR3, nor are there any in the later "Import Tuner Challenge" (which is actually part of the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series with a different name in the US for some reason) for the Xbox 360.
Wow. Accurate intro - and review. I love this series. Haha so true about the necessity of jackass driving.
You have to try Tokyo Extreme Racer Drift 2, it's like this game, only it's twice as deep with about a billion cars!
In the presentation text @ 2:56, it's litterrally about the Dreamcast!
Import Turner is one of the sequels. It is a long and old series.
@racermoments2508 yes, you can just search youtube for japanese street racing videos.
awesome! i still play 1 and 2 on the DC on occasion... but only for a short time. fun stuff
this game is like Wagan Midnight with highways like the one shown here. You can put a GT-R engine in a Suzuki Cappuchino EA11R which in the game would put out over 500HP.
I have this game for ps2 it reminds me of nfs underground 2 its alot of fun.
never played this but i loved TXR Zero all about the skyline. these games are great cause u feel like your really out at night looking to street race.
and you need to start with the right car and dilligently upgrade. This game is really fun if you know what to do
it strenghtens the car...
from what i know from playing the game, you lose less CP from crashing if the car is reinforced... plus, at level 5 you get a visible roll cage (i think it's cool)...
i dunno whether cornering ability increases or not...theoretically it should....
people don't realize this game is over 200 miles of REAL Japanese highways
Even the game has been released 7 years, I'm still addicted to it! That's really a cool game. I'd wonder why the game producer, GENKI not published the Tokyo Xtreme Racer X on PS3. At least you should put the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series on PS3! I've been waiting for that time for so long...... Now I could just play my Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 in my PS3 & waiting for that time comes.
I have Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero. Car dynamics suck, but as you said something about the game is addictive. I always hated how the AI cars would never move--I don't even think you can pit maneuver them! I think what I liked most was just seeing a wide variety of cars.
The last boss can be defeated in which I did...Its I believe a 3 way race with one of the guys driving a Ford GT. Idk where it was stated the game was impossible to beat.
LOL @ 2:21! Nice save!
It's still the best PS2 game out there
6:09 "...until you finnally get enough money to buy the nsx or something"
Honda in TXR3: ...................
@KingMajestik23 Sorry, Wangan Midnight on PS3 was only released in Japan and Hong Kong.
@ 2:35 ... if the AI driver was a real player his reaction would be "OH SHI-"
Best racing game for Playstation 2
Tokyo Extreme Racer was fun as hell on the Dreamcast, even if it didn't have the most diversity out there.
Woah, I didn't even realize this game came out! I loved the previous TXR titles. Thank you very much for this video InecomCompany ^_^
*Goes to purchase game*
Check your local store. Gamestop still has the banner on their website, so get out there! Today is the last day. You can also check to see if a game is available on the website for your store.
If you're interested, they also have an indefinitely Gamecube sale. B2G2 on anything. They're trying to clearance them out.
I'm one of the few that like the driving model in this game series (except the 360 one that never came to ps3, it had bad, bad, bad driving) I also think TXR 2 on the dreamcast looks the best up until Wangan Midnight on the PS3. So I'm crazy anyway.
I wonder if you have the steering wheel with the shift, would the car handle better? Or will it turn more like a drift and run fest like the Wangan Midnight arcade games?
It's regarded as a sports car,even if the performance isn't really good.
Personally, I think this game is awesome. Better yet, it's really common and cheap, so if you have an older CECHE01 PS3 or a PS2, get it.
Gamestop has a B2G2 sale going on right now on used $3.99-and-under PS2 games and a 10-for-$1 on all used 99¢ games. But, according to the website, the sale ends tomorrow.
If they make one in the future, Include it on PC too.
If they made another one, my life would be complete.
Are all the highways one-way or are they driving on the wrong side of the road (for Japan)? The FMV has them driving correctly but I can't tell in-game. Localization perhaps?
U need to play this car more like a sim, to follow the right lines, and power out faster without hitting walls. it's an awesome line between sim and arcade.
btw you should just pop the lid after a race and leave the game off. glitch lets your mileage goes up, and you get engine swaps after 1200 m.
had the game four years corrupted my data and now a few years later i'm sorta on it from the start.
2:35 - A.I. Realized that trying to pass is pointless.
@TheRacedriver92 Well, the cheesy techno is in Nagoya, which isn't even shown in this particular video. See some of NailStrafer's Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 videos if you want to see here some cheesy japanes high speed techno.
tokyo extreme racer 2 for dreamcast is really cool too :D
Good call, this was great on Dreamcast
My only issue with this game, was once you beat everyone, they only gave you something like 500 Cr.
This is just an old version of Import Tuner for the 360 it has the same kind of handling, and the same names.
I played this for HOURS
oh and if u want the japanese version, its called "Zero One"
I used to play that game
You should review Import Tuner Challenge for the 360.
