Hey Adzmax!!
I think your source of information is wrong. Kaido Battle is a game produced by Genki in Japan, I already have that game on PS2, i have had if since April. Its been out ages ago in Japan. And also with the Initial D games as well, it has been out a few months ago because i already have it. If you any of you are interested in buying the game, i can get the guys number and you can give him a call to buy the game.
BTW, Funky Monkey, i got my PS2 mod by this guy and he is pretty good!! It cost me about $140. This guy sells all the latest games from Japan and US, everywhere. The only problem is some of the games are in Japanese, and you have to remember which menu to select.
There is also another game that rocks. Its called Shutokou Battle, or otherwise known as Tokyo Extreme Racer (TXR) in Australia, however it is not very popular here, but i think it is betta than GT3. Australia only has TXR Zero at the moment, but Japan released Shutokou Battle 01 a few months ago which i have myself, and it is really good. Its based on street racing in Japan, and all the roads in the game is exactly what it is like in Japan. You can mod pretty much anything on the car, bodykits (veilside, do luck, etc), wheels (works, etc), colour of your lights...blah...blah..blah...you get the jist!!
Sorry for writing so much!!!! But i hope the info was helpful
BTW i am new to this forum, i dont have a Skyline, but when i grad end of this year, i will be looking for a R34 GT-t so keep me posted if you know any good places to import a car...or if anyone is selling a black one.
