Tokyo Xtreme Racer

⭐⭐ (2.5/5) I really wanted to like this one. The soundtrack is genuinely great, and I appreciate how small the install size is (just 10 GB) — refreshing in an era of 100+ GB racing games. Unfortunately, that's where the good stuff ends. The graphics are rough, especially the motion blur, which makes everything look cheap rather than stylish. The controls are stiff and unsatisfying, and despite being marketed as a "Tokyo Xtreme" racing experience, you're basically locked to highway driving the whole time — not the varied city racing the branding implies. On top of that, performance isn't great either. Despite the tiny install size, I noticed random lag spikes and stuttering on an Intel Arc GPU — not what you'd expect from a game this lightweight. The vehicle health bar is a neat idea on paper, but it's poorly implemented and ends up feeling more like an annoyance than a meaningful mechanic. You can tell this game is paying homage to Initial D — that influence is all over it — and if you grew up on that franchise (or you're introducing a younger player to arcade racing), there's some nostalgic charm here. But mechanically, it feels like a 1998 arcade racer with a fresh coat of paint, not a modern racing game. The bigger issue is the price. Need for Speed: Most Wanted came out in 2006 and still outclasses this in nearly every way — and that game used to cost for around €9. Forza isn't even worth comparing. Yet this title sells at full price for the same (or more), and even on discount it's around €30. At that price, it's hard to recommend. At €15 or under, it'd be a reasonable arcade-style pickup for fans of the genre or the Initial D aesthetic. Even grid 2 which is less than a EURO outperforms it and it came out in 2013. Honestly, I could've forgiven a lot of these issues individually — the graphics, the controls, even the price — but at the end of the day, the game just isn't fun. And fun is the one thing I actually want from a racing game. TL;DR: Great music, tiny install size, but dated handling, weak visuals, restrictive tracks, performance hiccups, and a price tag that doesn't match the quality. Save your money and put it toward a different racing franchise.

The game is ok, most of the time u fight rubberbanding bots and thats it lol. Also the bots just ride the walls without any dmg so its pointless to try and drive normally

Refund requested, this is not at all what i expected. The graphics and trailer make it look like a well made game but it plays like 90s arcade game with graphic mod. Such a disappointment.

Давайте по-честноку. Это не обычная гоночная аркада. Здесь только автострада. Если вы аутист, которого, как мотылька к огню, в каждой гоночной игре ТЯНЕТ к местному КАДу - то эта игра для вас. Если вы любите JDM - эта игра для вас. Если вы любите японский геймдев - эта игра для вас. И помните главное: Турбина дует - Тойота/Хонда/Мазда/Сузуки/е.т.с. пиздует

great game, tons of content and cars. does get a lil repetitive and the secret restrictions for some races can be tedious to work out

Do you want to race against a Nissan Z? No? Ok, here's 50 of them you have to race in a row. We'll break them up with the occasional Honda, even a Subaru if you can believe it, and sometimes you might see a Toyota. But you will race against Nissan Zs and you will be fine with doing that for hours.

Tediously linear.

我要買GTR!

高难度和低难度差距太大了，低难度打ai都是随便超车秒杀，高难度ai打你随便秒杀，没有中间难度可以选择，玩了只有虐和被虐的感觉

the enemy ai just pit maneuvers you and the grind is pretty awful
