    What do caviar, waterbeds, and David Lynch films have in common? They’re all unique acquired tastes - as is the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series. Once you’re hooked on the “scene”, though, you’ll never let go.

    If you're a fan of illegal racing, or of those souped up imports from Japan, this is definitely a game you'll enjoy.

    While the game conveys a good sense of realism, I can't help feel that it's somewhat linear. The tracks become too familiar until more are unlocked. Otherwise, Tokyo Extreme Racer is excellent.

    The huge amount of available roadway and varied collection of opponents will keep you racing for a good long time, but if you’re not a dedicated racing junkie then there’s not much here to catch your attention.

    Tokyo Xtreme Racer: Zero is not without its flaws, but the game's unique battle system and realistic sense of speed make it one of the most entertaining racing games on the PlayStation 2.

    If you're sucked in to the experience, you will find that there's plenty to do; cars to customize and challengers to crush. Although some may find it cumbersome and repetitive, the idea is sound, and the game comes out fairly clean in the end.

    I played both this game and "GT3". I think both games are great but Tokky Zero is # 1 in my book because of the continuous games. One race I played both this game and "GT3". I think both games are great but Tokky Zero is # 1 in my book because of the continuous games. One race leads into another and another without stopping the action. So my vote is double 10s.… Expand
