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.

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
