Incase you haven't seen/ heard there is finally an Initial D game that can be played on western machines without a jap console

trailer:

game: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bp-49-en-70-2lx5.html (jap) (online play)

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bp-49-en-70-2lx6.html (chinese) (no online play, english manual)

Anyway, my question is about the online play. Does anyone know if the online play works in Australia because i've seen a few videos of people in america being able to play online even though its not supposed to work outside of Japan. Not too keen on paying $15 extra for the online game when it doesn't even work.

Also, if you have the game, is it worth the money

how it works is that you WILL be able to play online but only with the japanese or chinese depending on what disk you buy, there is no region lock out on games for the ps3 but there is region segregation for online. i looked into this when trying to get MGS4 for a decent price through play asia.....

i might buy this game, although the constant japanese blabbering might get a little annoying

***thats stupid how you cant get the english manual with the jap version smh

I guess you havent read my post in the "Currently Playing"...

Japanese online play DEFINITELY works in Australia - my copy arrived yesterday and played it all all on my console and later in the day at my mate's house on his console. Neither me or my mates are Japanese but it didnt take long for us to navigate the menu with ease and 1/3 of the stuff is in english anyways.

The Japanese online version DOES NOT come with an English manual but you can get it online here: http://ps3mods.blogspot.com/2008/07/initia...ge-english.html

Your not missing out on anything important anyways if you dont get the English manual....

3/10? I didnt find it that bad! Only thing that annoyed me was every car being able to keep up with my modified R34 GTR :domokun: I find the controller better than the steering wheel at the arcades - its too sensitive at the arcade.

Though, I'm selling my copy of Initial D Extreme Stage - anyone wants it? Its the JDM version with the online play. As new condition only selling it to fund real mods - $70 pick up or plus $5 posted via registered.

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
    • thanks, will conduct myself accordingly. i unfortunately put about 150 miles on the car before reading this thread again, however no PS issues, and definitely no turbo issues. it spools normally and still feels fast to me, probably because my previous car was an N/A auto sedan...gonna go fix the PS vacuum line though lol. safe to say, got what i came to this thread for. thanks  
    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
