Initial D Extreme Stage (Japan Version)
Initial D Extreme Stage (頭文字D エクストリーム ステージ, kashiramoji [inishyaru] D ekusutorimu suteji) is a racing game developed by Sega for the PlayStation 3. It is based on the Japanese comic Initial D created by Shuichi Shigeno in 1995. This game is the follow-up to PS2's Initial D: Special Stage and PSP's Initial D: Street Stage. It bears much similarity to Initial D Arcade Stage 4 with tweaks and additions. Restrictions placed on the player in the arcade, such as allowing vehicle tuning after 3 IC card ejects, have been removed as there is now no IC card.
The online play is available for no extra charge with a Playstation Network account. The Japanese PSNet account allows users to connect using Sega's All.Net. Online play has ranking races, free races, chatrooms used for initiating free races, and currently ranked player lists. The chatrooms offer a limited chatting capability but allow custom messages. Ranking mode matches up players on the PS3 system. Game points are gained from all races, according to how the player performed. A loss will recieve 1000 points. After the race, the players ranking meter will either go up or down according things like match result, opponent ranking, and ranking points required for leveling up. Free races award 1000 points regardless of match result. Free races do not affect your ranking.
