Tokyo Xtreme Racer

Tediously linear.

Best single player offline arcade game. The graphics are simple yet beautiful, the handling is quite good when you finally figure it out. The concept of changing into a better car rather than upgrading existing car is a realistic yet fun way to immerse into the world of street racing at the safety of your home through gaming.

It is a very cool game I really enjoyed the first few hours of it, the graphics are great, the AI is decent, many different japanease cars to pick from, alot of upgrades etc however I must give it a negative score because there is no variety at all the whole game is all about you trying to drive fast enough away from the opponent until their SP score reaches 0 , thats it, thats the game, there are a few different types of opponents but the race are the same and its fun in the beginning but after 10plus hours its just not fun anymore.

ギリギリだけどノートPCでもなんとかできた。ファンの音はめっちゃうるさいけど。あとスカイライン2000GTとかスバル360とかの古すぎる車やフェラーリやPorscheなどの外車が出てこなかったのは残念。まあまだ、GT7じゃないだけマシか

After 80 hours over some months, I honestly cannot recommend this game. Don't get me wrong - driving around, tuning, etc - it all feels and works fine. But, unfortunately, the gameplay balance is complete and utter dogwater. I expect, and want, a challenge (TXR3 veteran here), but having a rival literally have a smokescreen is utter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Couple that with extreme rubberbanding, giving your rivals unlimited NOS, and the game being willing to straight-up break the rules (both of the physics and the gameplay mechanics themselves) to ensure that your rival wins, and it removes ay potential for fun at highest levels of the game. I recommend just downloading an emulator and playing TXR3. The physics are worse, but it's a vastly more enjoyable experience. If you are deadset on playing this iteration, it's greatly improved with the limited mod support that exists.

アーリーアクセス時に衝動買いしてそのままだったのをつい最近になってプレイ開始。そのままエンディングまで走り抜けました。(まだ裏ボスが残っている状況) レースゲームに昔ながらのJRPG的成長要素をプラス、数多の個性的なライバルと1on1(例外あり)の叩き合いで戦っていき、首都高最速の漢を目指すゲーム。 概ねやってる事はポ⚫︎モンです。 ♪鍛えたマシンで勝ちまくり、マシンを増やして次の道へ(ﾏｯ)です。 ♪ああ　あこがれの　首都高最速に　なりたいな　ならなくちゃ　絶対なってやる〜〜ッ！　です。 時速300km超のスピードで中央分離帯や銀座の橋脚に正面から激突しても傷ひとつない事からも、主人公がスーパーマサラ人の近縁であることは疑いようもありません。[spoiler]というかシナリオのメインキャラたちもどこかポ⚫︎モンのキャラっぽい性格してませんか？[/spoiler] 終盤につれてマシンパワーが凄まじいインフレを起こして行き、最終的には「こちらがその時点で手に入る最高のマシンに最高のチューンを仕上げてブッ千切るか、それが足りずにブッ千切られるか」という少々大味気味のバトル展開になってしまうのもなんだか「昔ながらのRPG」感がありますね。 まあ、この場合アザーカーとの接触=ほぼ負け確定(相手側にも同じ事が言えます)でもあるので、それはそれで辛うじてレースゲームらしい緊張感は保てております。 難点を挙げるとしたら、その大味なバトルのせいでせっかくの各ボス固有のテーマ曲(どれも名曲です)を戦いの中で聴く事がままならない点。勝つにせよ負けるにせよ30秒持てば良い方という具合なので…。 各ライバルにはそれぞれ実名、職業、人となりといったプロフィールがしっかり記載されており、更に過去作品からの時代の変遷も反映されているため、物語としての厚みがあります。 走りに情熱を燃やす人々の人生に時にクスリとしたり時にホロリとなったりします。私のお気に入りはハイドロドリフト忍者とニンジャ・グリーンのやりとりです。 総じて、異次元のスピードでリアルな高速道路をブッ飛ばすという独特の快感を味わいたい人、JRPG風の成長システムによって徐々に強くなっていく瞬間が好きな人、キャラクターの関係性にハマれる人、ポ⚫︎モンの中でも剣盾が刺さった人などにオススメです。

Very simplistic and repetitive racing experience. Definitely not what the highly positive reviews suggest, I should have read the negative ones which are pretty spot on. Only consider if you want an Arcade-like racing experience.

Truly something special that brings tears to my eyes. If you played the old Xtreme Racer games, this feels like an absolute perfect modern recreation. It feels nostalgic but polished and new at the same time. A majority of my gaming time on the PS2 as a child were racing games, in particular the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series. Being able to experience it all again for what feels like the first time -- the music, exploration, nightime cruising through a city full of lights, discovering rivals that almost have some kind of mysterious or supernatural vibe to them even though they're literally just cars cruising the highways -- no game has reconnected me with my childhood like this one has and its an incredible feeling. Even if this is your first time playing an Xtreme Racer game, it's a fantastic modern arcade racer from clearly passionate developers. 10/10
