“Tokyo Extreme Racer is way overpriced for how basic it is. The races/battles last only like 30 - 90 seconds (especially when you learn about fast start), and its the very same thing over and over ond over again (ad 20x…”
“As much as I loved the original games I can't recommend this game. The audio is horrible and you can't even hear the cars and the steering and controls are just horrible. it's a classic but maybe a little too stuck in…”
“I played the crap out of TXR on the Dreamcast and now this new version, this gem of a game is here. If you like tuners, if you like a racing game where you actually have to race and don't just get handed the top car,…”

“"yall got any good gameplay?" "we got aura" jokes aside this has been the most repetitive racing game ive ever played, the premise while unique initially wore off around midgame and it just becomes mind numbing. you go…”
“If you loved the early TXR games, this is a no brainer. If you have never played or never happened to become helplessly addicted to a TXR game...... It's a refreshing race sim for the genre, TRY IT, Farming is fun ,…”
“I like that game so much Absolute racing game. If u love racing games - u need to play that game Cars so good, tuning so good, sound so good.”

“This game is fun, but not for everyone. It's an old school single player grinder. You drive, you race rivals, you tune your car. You get perks. Rinse, repeat. It's a bit mindless but can be relaxing for the right crowd…”
“The customization is really good, music is amazing, the only downside in my opinion is possibly the difficulty spike towards the end but it is more than manageable. The game oozes with style of old ps2 racing games, and…”
“I've spent more time in this game than Forza 5. It's absolutely fantastic. There's no intrusive anti-cheat, no obligatory sign-up, no microtransactions, no clunky 3rd party launcher, no online requirements whatsoever,…”

“Best arcade street racing game of recent years. Takes me back to the old NFS/Midnight Club/TXR-ITC days. Addicting gameplay loop + banger JDM car list.”

“An arcade style racing game with tons and tons of hours for it. It's funny how even though 95% of the time you spend it on the same track, each race feels as good as the first one. It is somehow still fresh and fun…”
