Genki has released a long (and first?) trailer for Tokyo Xtreme Racer, and it looks surpisingly good. Nice reflections on the cars, great sense of speed and pretty good environments. Screenshots doesn't do this game any justice! There are some pop-in-problems, and hopefully they'll be fixed before the Japanese release in the end of July.
Update : I've reencoded the trailer from scratch and deinterlaced it. It doesn't look great, but it's still better than before. I've also added some images.

I like the customisation features, cockpit view isn't too bad either.
But i agree with manager, everyone called it a ps1 game when they saw the last update on this game, with the below average pics, and the two non gameplay inlcuding trailers... i think it's fair to say they really showed them it's a worthy title...
I dont see the bad textures like we saw in those pics... and the gameplay looks, as always with shutokou battle games, promising! and this is just the tip of the iceberg... there are many, many bosses to battle, more road then you can imagine, i hope you can get flashed again and get speeding tickets as well.. haha... and im really liking the cockpit view! who'd knew that would ever happen in a TXR game?
The customizing has always been good, and by unlocking more to stuff, it will only get better and better!
Now if only ubisoft or another publisher would jump on this after seeing this trailer, we could enjoy the game as well sometime in the future! i dont think this one will be region free.. :(
Thanks for the vid!
I bought the DC for it, love TRX3 on PS2 and will love the 360 version.

Before I bought the xbox 360 I was waiting for this game with the trailer MS released last year and even now I take a glance at it every now and then.
I LOVE TXR!!!
It had a game on it called "highway battle('s)" or something like that...
Now, i have read somewhere that two games on that list were actually real and announced at E3, which made the list pretty much a lot more credible...
I dont have the details anymore, but am i right about this?
If so, big chance we will see this within a couple of months then, instead of waiting one year, or waiting while it's not coming over here at all ,TXR3 never made it to europe :(
Anyone?
No driver! hahaha...
Oh, and that steering wheel is not turning while you use the cockpit view.. no hands, no moving steering wheel.. bit of a letdown, but im still optimistic about this game!
PS: i want a better console race because it will bring the best out of developers and console makers, not specifically because i want x360 to win.
EDIT: LOL!!!! That fraking in-car camera without a moving wheel, that's just down right unnaceptable, it makes no sense at all! WORST LOOKING "next gen" GAME.

oh well another one bites the dust , removed from my buy list.
the only remaining games on my list are HALO 3 and Gears Of War , oh well.

Explain please...
Anyway, i still cant believe people think this is the worst looking game ever, i agree, it looks average, and i believe that this series will never look beyond average.. all 9 of them always looked a bit behind the competition, but the gameplay, the roads, the atmosphere, the cars, the customizing, the battles, now online gameplay, will always be good and have that typical TXR/shutkou battle style to it... which is superb if you actually played on of these games, and liked it.
Just be openminded a bit... i know im defending this game a bit.. heh, but i feel there are people hating this game without having played or dig a bit deeper in the series..
