    The Spectacular Initial D Arcade Game

    Big-in-Japan anime/manga Initial D gets another arcade game. With real cars! Earlier this month, the new Initial D game set up shop at the SEGA Joypolis in Odaiba. Instead of a standard cabinet, the game features the bodies of actual cars: Subaru Impreza WRX, Toyota GT-APEX and Mazada RX-7 (minus their engines). A ninety-inch monitor is set up in front of the car. For ¥600 (US $5), players can battle it out in one of three in-game courses. Rad, street driving the actual Initial D cars. Shit hot stuff like this lets me forgive SEGA for, I dunno, the last seven years.
