I remember back in the day, I had this and GT2. I remember also saying that the sound track from Tokyo Highway Racer should be in every other racing game. I didnt know that Tokyo Highway Battle went on to Tokyo Extreme racer though. Learn something new every day indeed
You wanna know what's less extreme besides this game being very similar to Tokyo Extreme Racer but less extreme? The frame rate of the footage of Mark.
My name's Brad, my car rules...can't believe you didn't include that killer dialog! Man now I gotta get me a new copy, I was introduced to the series thru my friends dreamcast w/Xtreme Racer and got this for the ps1 we still had laying around. better steer clear of those wall magnets if u wana beat the r33 in a sw20 lol and don't b shy of the drift button haha something they dropped for the xtreme sequels
Oh i'm so sorry i offended you. In my country we called PS or PSOne just a PSX but if you want to be such a name validator than i send you to wikipedia "PSX" - which is a console that has integrated PlayStation and PlayStation 2 :)
Willom No my friend its a PSX! PSX was the development title for the PS and was used by many magazines back then! So it stuck with many people! myself included! of course there is a different PSX now!
I don't blame mark on the drifting on this game cause the 3rd person camera is actually terrible. It doesn't follow your car when you drift. I hate it when games do that. 1st person ain't bad tho.
it looks like Ridge Racer Revolution it looks good okay I'll get it but then you fooled me okay I love Ridge Racer Revolution but since the game looks similar on buying it
This is the wrong way to play the game. You’re suppose to drift everywhere, around cars on the entire course and keep up your momentum and stay in front of your opponent.
Ridge Racer clone with the same Menu design and the same Lap Time and Total Time letter/word font that Namco used for the earlier Ridge Racer games and slower and fewer cars/vehicles to choose/select from and the controls for Ridge Racer is far superior
The graphics are just awful... Gameplay is more important for sure, but when your PlayStation game looks like a Super FX SNES game, you're doing it wrong.
aMondia Nah as a Stunt Race FX didn't have that great a draw distance, and it chugged pretty badly, so yeah don't disagree that the game looks rough, it isn't the worst that early 3D has to offer in visuals.
I wonder if Mark has played the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune games?
Another highway racer with some pretty good music.
Mark looks like the PS4 Pro, it runs at 4k upscale - 10fps...
60fps only for patreon backers
The OG Tokyo Racing title. Legend. I had a lot of fun with this game. Loved the feeling of progression.
when I saw a screenshot of this back in the day I expected Ridge Racer with traffic so I rushed out and traded some games for it
wasn't disappointed
Was like a fun 3d Outrun with a solid campaign.
I was expecting a "GAME OVER YEAHHH!!" at the end for some reason.

Anyone who likes this sort of music should check out Myrone. He did the soundtrack for the yet to be released game Drift Stage.
Clint from LGR recommended that title to me; looks damn good. Looking forward to the OST as well, now.
I hope Import Tuner Challenge becomes backwards compatible with Xbox One soon!
Oh man, I remember being able to modify the interior of an R32 Skyline. That game felt like the future.
Tokyo Xtreme Racer for Sega Dreamcast is 1 of my top 5 games ever! Awesome video.
The footage of Mark looks nice, but what's going on with the frame rate?!
It's like 10 fps lmao
I think this was phone or webcam footage. Some phones and webcams bump down the framerate when you increase the resolution.
I assume his main camera died and that was his backup.
The video on Patreon uses the correct frame rate for that scene.
@@dariusthefactor it's not the game framerate they're talking about.
one of my first playstation games, I had the playstation ntsc j. every game was in Japanese, took me 2 weeks to get through the menu to start a game
Am I the only person who feels that Playstation-era graphics are becoming as nostalgic as 16-bit graphics?
I've always thought that colorful early 3d had a nice look to it. Or like five years ago or something.

At first I just thought this game looked like a ripoff of Ridge Racer, but the music redeems it
Music is far better than the bubblegum techno in RR.
this music is what all true gamers strive for!
So long since last PSX review. Great episode :)
It's a PlayStation or PSOne. Not a PSX.
Oh i'm so sorry i offended you. In my country we called PS or PSOne just a PSX but if you want to be such a name validator than i send you to wikipedia "PSX" - which is a console that has integrated PlayStation and PlayStation 2 :)
Willom No my friend its a PSX! PSX was the development title for the PS and was used by many magazines back then! So it stuck with many people! myself included! of course there is a different PSX now!
I see mark is trying the new cinematic experience with these framerates.
Not really, 60fps only for patreon backers.
aw shit.
wow. this games looks pretty awesome for a PS1 racer of this style. yeah, I know it's no Gran Tourismo, but it still looks pretty awesome.
I've had this game since 96, and still love that music, Mark you know you love the video intro...... lol
WOW, I never knew this game existed. I gotta play this game NOW!!
I own it and bought it new on sale. Most game I bought was 19.99. Great game. Years ago. Thanks Mark for the great review.
Track looks like Tokyo Route 246 a bit, or whatever the track was called on Gran Turismo.
I thought the music got better.... especially Zero after txr2's mindless techno
You didn't get it Mark. Drifting is the most important part of that game.
Mark just spent my $3. If it's like my Vigilante 8 game disc I can play the tunes in a CD player.
Yup tracks 2 to 7 play in a music CD player
Remember buying this from Costco for about 10 bucks. The name may imply highway battle but the intro to this game features the drift king of Japan.
Yea when Tokyo extreme came out i was hooked to me it was the first game u got to customize your cars at the time i thought it was the best thing ever
YES! This is great! Racing games should have awesome hype music, not just ambient sound or whatever licensed pop crap they can license...
Michirin9801 Racing games should always have custom soundtracks as an option nowadays, shame it fizzled through the last generation.
g1nobleteam True...
YES, I've been waiting for this review
coos bay is pretty cool if you ride quads or dirt bikes, Mark
4:45 WAIT I'VE SEEN THIS FACE BEFORE...
...(Googles "Rolling Guy Logo")...
FUCKING KNEW IT
Has Twitch really been around for over 8 years? Huh, go figure. Apparently, time flies whether you're having fun or not.
Mark, try actually trying to pull drifts on this game? Its actually faster than gripping lmao
Admittedly it does take a bit getting used to though
I loved this game.
This looks a lot like Wangan Dead Heat on the Sega Saturn
I don't blame mark on the drifting on this game cause the 3rd person camera is actually terrible. It doesn't follow your car when you drift. I hate it when games do that. 1st person ain't bad tho.
came for the yellow mr2 in the thumb nail
this game drove me nuts when it was time to beat the "drift king"
Great to know you got RGB cables for you're Playstation it looks awesome :)
Juan Salazar Wasn't Rgb though, just playing it on a PS3.
g1nobleteam what did he say he played it on PS3 I must of missed it then
Juan Salazar He didn't state it, just wrote it in the description, plus he didn't utter framemesiter so yeah guess that also gives it away.
Dang I was 100% convinced it was, I guess it was too much to think he'd downplay the Framemeister :/
He actually does say it in the review. 3:54
Ah yes, nothing better than Mark in *15 FRAMES PER SECOND!*
*EXTREEEEEEEEME!!*
You really need scanlines to make this look better, running on a LCD panel just makes it look dreadful, it was designed for a CRT
is it just me or does it seem like the intro is messed up? like it's at a weird framrate
It's like that. HD! But 12 fps.
Can you make a "top ten coolest video game wallpapers for the (insert console or ever here)"
Mark try Racing Lagoon on ps1 I think you'll find that it is more of a predecessor to Tokyo Extreme than this game.
PGR Patreon Game Room show ! yeahhh
I miss music in games.... :'(
best initial D ripoff ever
Awesome
soundtrack by Eric Johnson? lol
Mark is apparently still in the r zone apparently.
it looks like Ridge Racer Revolution it looks good okay I'll get it but then you fooled me okay I love Ridge Racer Revolution but since the game looks similar on buying it
Awesome👻
I prefer Tokyo extreme 3 over 2.
Coos bay Oregon is okay....
never heard of this
Lol I still have my copy in 2020
うぉ！！
高速道で、観光バスや、トラック、一般乗用車と一緒に、レースはいいねぇ～
ah sick d00d
This is the wrong way to play the game. You’re suppose to drift everywhere, around cars on the entire course and keep up your momentum and stay in front of your opponent.
Wait, so they only have japanese cars? lmfao
Ridge Racer clone except the controls for Ridge Racer is far superior
Ridge Racer clone with the same Menu design and the same Lap Time and Total Time letter/word font that Namco used for the earlier Ridge Racer games and slower and fewer cars/vehicles to choose/select from and the controls for Ridge Racer is far superior
crap game graphics nasty
Not Interested.
The graphics are just awful...
Gameplay is more important for sure, but when your PlayStation game looks like a Super FX SNES game, you're doing it wrong.
aMondia Nah as a Stunt Race FX didn't have that great a draw distance, and it chugged pretty badly, so yeah don't disagree that the game looks rough, it isn't the worst that early 3D has to offer in visuals.
One year after the playstation life is why
mark, stop stupid uncomfortable voice effect
ok,bye
This better be played on the THRUST MASTER or I'm going to be very disappointed in you.
