Yellow Evo is one of the cars of all time
That Honda van had me dying
It has evolved to become a force of nature, one which distorts sound.
Everytime a Dandelion Yellow EVO III appears Jackie Chan's song will start playing in the background.

The yellow EVO is the most of all time
One of my favorite parts of this game is all the different characters you race against. There's a menu full of little bios for every single racer and their backstory, and once you beat them you even get a little blurb explaining their driving style. And this game *does* give each racer their own unique AI- after having trouble getting past one of the Rolling Guys I noticed in his bio that I wasn't crazy, he actually was trying to block me off! Granted, as this video demonstrates the AI is still pretty dumb, but I feel like that just sums up TXR as a whole. There's a lot of jank, the campaign can be pretty grindy, and the hardest races rely almost exclusively on luck, but it's still a really charming experience that you can't find anywhere else even in its time.
Glad to see this game popping up again! I'd love to see more, a sequel video focused on hunting down the wanderers might be fun. They're another part of this game's odd charm with the utterly demented requirements for finding some of them, especially Coffee X3.
I agree, I don't think there's anything which comes close. Its shortcomings are obvious, but there are a lot of unique elements to be rescued here. One can wish people make games taking a few clues from TXR.
No crash damage, never raced. Always Garaged. 50k Obo No Lowballers.
I know what I have
Never modified, totally stock. One of a kind!
After that, the Yellow Lancer has achieved it's Final Earrapey Form and decided to unleash havok around the Gran Turismo Universe.
We could say, we got the Evo 2000.
I always happy when someone uploads a TXR video, one of my favorite franchises of all time, great challenge man!
You're welcome! I do believe TXR deserves a bit more of attention, it's really unique and could bring something new to racing games.
It ashame that GENKI closed its doors after 2013 with its Wangan Midnight series for PS3, imagine if the company still exist, who knows what crazy street racing games they might come up with
I like how Team Alpha looks like a Parody of an old 80's TV show called the A-Team even the colour pallet and texts are very similar. 😂
At least according to TXR3, the team later shifted to being a team consisting entirely of US Marines and solely using American cars.
The "peculiar body kit" of Red Devil is actually supposed to look like the Zaku II, a robot from the Gundam series. In red, it specifically resembles the villain Char's personal Zaku, which was also red, and was said to be three times faster than a normal Zaku.
Ah, interesting. That sort of stuff goes over me, not being into Gundam.
Red Devil himself is usually a reference to that character (nicknamed the Red Comet). If you buy that Skyline, the car will have its model code as "MS-06S" instead of "BNR34" (MS-06S is the Zaku II's model number)
Lmao I was waiting for Dejected Angel to show up. I had no idea it was called Unhappy Angel in Zero.
Crave (the distributors) are really fickle in translations. Betrayal Jack Knife was also translated as Backstab in Drift 2, for example.
“Her” actually Unhappy Angel is Setsuko Kuroe’s B.A.D name in TXR0
@@memeplayer1923hey eventually just threw out the differences like names and in TXRD2 onwards Genki as from the original TXR and TXR2 on Dreamcast and TXR3 every opponent had different names depending on which version of the game you have being the EU, Us and the JP version where the Japanese version of the game has their canon names.
I recently finished my play through of Xtreme Racer 3 since I started summer break, with a neat AI upscale texture mod and with the new nightly build of PCSX2 it looks pretty good! Took me over two weeks to 100% everything (My first time 100%ing that game, beating all the wanderers takes time and for one of them you quite literally have to cheat). Glad to see the series getting some love though, I only found it last year but its incredibly underrated!
Wanderers are an absolute nightmare, specially on 3. The requirements can be absurd at times and the fact the currency system is broken in NTSC doesn't help at all!
*muffled Mirage by Daiki Kasho playing in the background*
You did a good gameplay. I see that you're did well after beating the 13 Devils and the Zodiacs.
Thanks! It was a fun run, I had all sort of races really.
I waws about to say that you hadn't yet completed the game, as you need to beat all of the wandering racers to face off against the final boss, but some of the wanderers have very specific challenge requirements, and you've limited yourself to the Evo III, so there's no way to beat them all.
Still a great trip down memory lane with this absolute sleeper of a racing game!
Yeah, I wanted to say something about wanderers but didn't find a good place for it in the script. The requirements are a bit nitpicky and I totally needed more cars. So I tried to beat all the crews, I know I didn't mention some, but I got them all.
Doesn't help there is absolutely nothing in game to tell you where/when to find the Wanderers and even less about how to get them to actually race you.
@@demomanchaosWell thanks to Google ya could just look it up
This looks like one of the coolest games I've never played, I never heard of this game before, shame I never got to play it.
The TXR franchise has its quirks, but I do believe there's nothing similar to it. Always good to give it a try.
23:29 c'mon now, you know that one Eurobeat song. No one sleep in Tokyo
Of course, that's the reference!
About time we see some TXR representation!
I agree! Just putting my grain of sand in here.
Probably the best bang for your buck car to begin with in TXR0.
It can be purchased with the starting funds, and with careful modification, get you far.
Absolutely! Even if the car roster in TXR0 is a thing of beauty, so many options.
@@YellowbirdYT It truly is a thing of beauty. Watching your video made me want to play this game again.
I started a new play recently and the Toyota Celica GT4 isnt so bad either carried me all the way to SpeedKing and then I bought SpeedKing cars to beat the game
Would love to see this game live top notch as usual keep up the good work @Yellowbird
There's probably a chance I'll stream this after we're done with GT4.
ahhh zero, my favorite. man of culture here.
for me its
1. zero
2. drift 2
3. txr 2
also new sub here, as a txr vet, im starved for txr content
Well thank you! I'll try to bring TXR from time to time, I believe it deserves to be recognized.
Excellent video! I love the GT4 Randomizer, though thanks for dropping this close to heart gem.
You're welcome! I'll keep playing live and releasing more videos.
another txr vid, know its gonna be good
also its rhythm box not rhythm r3
I did write a few names wrong actually, yes. It went over my head when putting the script together.
Next video: How a yellow evo conquered the entire Asian continent in quater of the time it took Ghengis Khan
8:03 you dont need to explain nothing because is a yellow evo
I always forget this isn't a car, but a force of nature.
That EVO was my choice with my first play through. It ended up being a 1K HP monster that I kept going back to even after buying new cars.
Hummm, i would like to see a similar video about TXR Drift 2 👀👀
Good to see that your videos are improving
We'll see how this one does, but I really like TXRD2 as well. I'm glad you find I'm improving!
Kei car only run?
@@ArbitraryOutcome Basicaly what i done in my first play lol
The return of the blue/green Honda Beat ?
Cant wait for that to happen
Ah yes, another person conquering the Shutokou with the best starter car
Best car, best color. What else did I miss?
Insert obligatory GT2000 earrape
What do you mean my soundtrack isn't distorted? What is this heresy?
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Game looks fantastic in HD. TXR has always been one of my favourite series even since the PS1 version in 1997.
Thank you! I really appreciate this franchise, it's special.
I played the psp port version and ended up falling in love with it. It has a fairly in-depth crew battle mode where you come in as a simple low tier car and pick a crew to join. Eventually winning against other racers and people in your own crew to take over. For each racer you find on the street or from other crews, you can beat them and take them into your crew to eventually take on the entire crew and take that territory over
Never touched the PSP release, actually. Sounds interesting.
@@YellowbirdYTI actually highly recommend it. Fun pick up and go gameplay, no free roaming like the main titles but still plenty of courses to race. First run you’re locked to a few crews but you have NG+ with keeping your money & cars whilst being able to choose any crew to join from the start
20:40 like that Lexus Gs300 with the CLK DTM kit, so both i guess ?
Good gameplay video. You should also try C1 Racing Battle that also created by Genki for the Playstation 2.
I did this same playthrough about a year ago. I also built an az1 that goes almost 200mph
lol it’s really fun beating the vipers on the wangan with a kei car
It's really fun to take absurd builds to the Wangan.
Have you ever played Option Spec-R for PSX?
I'll have to look into it!
this game has a very stupid difficulty curve depending on what car you start off with, and i love it
The nature of TXR can be stupid at times, and that's part of the charm.
I left my playthru of TXR0 some number of years ago after beating like… 12 bosses in one in game night, at least half being Zodiac because i faintly remember Red Devil, boss rush style. My experience with the game, and that intensely extreme difficulty spike just there out of nowhere was basically my peak TXR gaming moment. But after watching you tear up the roads in the Evo (my starter of choice in many a restarted playthru. If not RX7 iirc.) youve definitely motivated me to scour for my ps2 controller and attempt to finally complete the game. Im not sure if ive the patience to find each and every single wanderer though, so that final final boss may escape me permanently… only time will tell
Side note: money shifting AGGRESSIVELY down a gear or several to successfully get the car to rotate and ‘drift’ corners without smacking walls at high speeds, just absolutely breaking the physics, was highly satisfactory when i finally figured out how to do it. My younger mind just HAD to figure out how to slide like the cars in the intro cutscene could 😂
Wanderers are really annoying, they are even worse in TXR3. Here's hope you can play this game again, it deserves a playthrough!
@@YellowbirdYT found the old pic i took. 36 wins, 3 losses (my car was SOOO SLLLLLOOOWWWWW near the end) and 2 draws (pathfinding? Never heard of her) in a single night of racing. My friend just started a new playthru, i just watched yours, ill certainly have to soon! 😌
One of the things this game punishes you for is long sessions. So dont forget to install oil gauges and tire sensors. Because wear and tear is a thing in this game.
I've 100% this game multiple times and enjoyed it every time. Using different cars as well. Was using a fully tuned EK9 for wangan 🤣
but i was wondering are you going to try yo beat all the wanderers and battle against the Devil Z?
Well, no. Given I need different cars, the video was a single car challenge run.
Maaan I loved playing this on dreamcast, the encounters with tuned rival cars and gangs was do cool concept!
It's really unique, I really wish other games brought back the crews!
@@YellowbirdYT yeah! It really helps building the game's world and making it feel alive, like this is some real street racing and you get to meet lots of cool people, love your videos man!
seems these ai drivers really like the rear ends of trucks lmao
seriously tho, love the commentary and humor, best 26 mins i've sat through
Thank you so much! Those trucks saved my run a few times.
This video was highly entertaining 💖
Thanks! This one took some time to make, I'm glad it's entertaining.
[Daiki kasho Mirage Earrape intensified]
Everything is possible with the power of distortion!
They really perfected this Franchise with Import Tuner Challenge for the 360 then just abandoned it.
It's a shame we probably won't see another of these games developed by Genki, indeed.
technically Genki co developed the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune arcade cabinets with Bandai Namco Amusements. Heck even some of the Aero Part kits for some of the cars, are straight up ripped from TXR. The most noticeable ones are as follows in Maxi 5 and Maxi 6 RR the Rx8 literally has Midnight Cinderella’s TXR3 kit then in 6 RR the RX8 has Midnight Cinderella’s ITC Kit the one with a discount Ducktail spoiler resembling a Rocket Bunny one. Then both the S15 and the S14 have Dejected/Unhappy Angel’s Kits her TXR3 one for the S15 and I think S15 at one point had her Gloomy Angel kit from TXRD2 the one with the massive ass spoiler on it, then the S14 has her TXR0 Kit and both R34’s and the Subbie’s have Jintei’s kits then i believe at one point the 3000Gt/GTO had both Midnight Rose’s and Dying Stars Kits.
Cara de Gigachad y puede aguantar a toda la banda, el auto más auto de todos los tiempos.
Jajajajaja, lo mas grande que hay!
Wish Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero had the handling of Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2 with the graphics of this game, and the handling of that one, it would have been the best of the series. As it is now i just prefer Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2
I wish TXR3 had the handling of Zero, it would suit it much better!
The Driver Is Jackie Chan Because Jackie Chan Was In A Movie And It Was An Evo 3
You might be missing one more menace of this game
I know, I'm missing "???" but, I didn't want to meet all the requirements. So I kept it limited to main teams instead.
Imagine playing mirage earrape over all of the races
It sends opponents flying off the highway. Or straight into a truck.
15:46 you are the luckiest man, alive Dreamy Ghost’s NA2 has over 900 horsepower i believe had it not been for the traffic car and you weren’t on the C1 Dreamy ghost would of been gone in seconds on the Shinkanjo.
It's funny how most bosses are either impossible or can be cheesed with C1 strats.
@@YellowbirdYT even on the C1 depending on traffic Dreamy Ghost can still somewhat pull away with his over 900 horsepower.
Ah Yes The Y E L L O W E V O From Meme
Bruh i just Bought TXR for my PS2 Games collection and Yellow EVO III is the first car i picked cuz i love evos and yea...
Y E L L O W E V O
Oh. I thought you're going to talk about Maximum Tune.
you sure a rally car is fast enough to beat people in the wangan?
Sorry what ?
Of course. An Impreza also can beat anyone at Wangan.
I don't know! I'll nuke the engine in the process.
Nah, that white Impreza can handle it 👀
@@hybridShinxJust ask that Speed King in TXR Drift. Same guy who drive R34 on highways also drive an Impreza in mountain roads.
You should've chose the Evo 4 or it's similar predecessors.
jackie chan straight outta shutokou
We all need a side-job!
8:03 Bro thought he was playing burnout revenge
I still have to play the Burnout games, funny enough.
I got this game like 6 months ago and was my first in the series. I started with the crx and was struggling bad. I put other evo last week and am trying to win some races. I feel like it’s taking me forever to get money. Maybe I’m not doing it right. I downloaded street supremacy on PSP and have like 5 cars maxed out. Not sure what I’m doing
I love this game and played it when it came out...I just recently got the game again and started with the same car and haven't changed it...I stopped at the wangan...I'm curious on what is your gear ratios...I have the same problem on that I'm winning by luck...not skill
I made them longer and played with them to match the torque curve of my car. It changes depending on each car.
@yellowbird...probably a dumb question but where see the torque curve of the car...I mean I see some sorta diagram on the side of the screen when I'm messing with the gears...but it doesn't move
Pls more TXR content thank you
I'll try to! TXR isn't as loved by YT's machine so it depends on how well it does, I really want to bring these games to more people.
Let me rephrase that: instead of "This isnt Initial D" instead lets say: "The Rolling Guys arent Takumi Fujiwara" period. (On a 2nd thought, they arent even Takuya, Takumi's parody on Genki games)
one dude,anothing day is upload the txr3 (the best in my opinon) or keep with gran turismo challeges,pd for don't relate from the theme me is speak spanish but i prefer speak english
Ah yes, the BK4 car
On the PAL version the engine upgrade doesnt unlock till around 3k miles
I think, if they changed the units, it's the same. 1864 miles is 3000km!
@@YellowbirdYT yeah, it says mph on the dial but the numbers go up in kmh and on the score card its written as kmh
Will you touch TXR3 in the near future?
Funny enough, my very first video is about TXR3. It really depends on how well this one does!
@@YellowbirdYT i do hope you'll touch on that,since i am stuck on a rival too LOL
@@YellowbirdYTMaybe also try out Drift, Kaido Racer and Drift 2? They're the mountain road spinoffs which are interquels of some games.
Will you beat # 400, and the wanderers?
Not in this run, given wanderers require specific cars. It was a single-car run.
pls do the other genki games
I'll try!
Yeah sadly in TXR0 Midnight Rose is an absolute joke. Even for a Boss. She is much harder in the later TXR Games.
Is there a new link to the TXRD discord server?
Please do playthroughs like ylu have done woth gt2 and 4. Tokyo extreme racer 3 would be such a cool playthrough to watch
Depends on how well they do, really! but thanks!
@YellowbirdYT well if you did start livestreaming of this like you do grand turismo you've got 1 viewer right here already. Keep on the awesome video my bro
There is no devil z in this one?
I think so, however you have to beat all wanderers.

Hhhhh yellow Evo
The evo is orange ._.
I thought the same thing
It is a peculiar shade of yellow, yes.
Mango coloured
I swear the ai were cheating frfr
The AI in this game is brutal, they don't give you a break. Or they provide the most disappointing races ever.
🤔

But looks orange.
It is an unique shade of yellow, sure.
