Here's a screen shot I took, when playing the demo. Where have i seen this before I didn't like the game at all, but the graphics were pretty good when you race.

i like games where you dont just feel the engine mods but see the external mods also. has anyone played tokyo extreme racing? that game was fun. but like any racing game, it gets a little redundant after hours and hours of playing. i had GT3 for awhile now and got tired of playing it. just going in circles for hours kinda gets boring after awhile. esspecially when races take like 20 laps to finish~!

Has anyone ever played the Japanese arcade game that has been released to the states? It's called "Intital D", you might find it at your local arcade. It has pretty amazing potential for drifting in that game. I drift with my S14 Silvia all the time in that game....check it out if you get the chance!

I play initial D only once a week, because it drains my quarters so quickly. It's a fun game, and gets your adrenaline running especially on the harder stages. But I still like GT3 better, maybe because it's more of a "technical" and realistic game.

my only problem with NFS:UG is that the modding you do to a car is limited to basic body work and a few bolt ons. Most of the companies I've seen listed for the game do body kits for the cars. It just reinforces that too many people think body kits=faster car.

i wish we had the initial d arcade game on the east coast. that would be awesome!
