Sequel that polishes the formula with more cars, roads and tuning options. Presentation steps up but PS2 still misses online play. The console's touge benchmark.

The Japanese and Asian run of Battle Gear 3, a Taito racer drawn from the arcades and bent toward mountain-pass driving, a touge benchmark on the console. Kept to Asia with no Western counterpart, the title spoke to fans of tuning and precise handling. Desirability rests on its arcade pedigree and its standing as a milestone of Japanese touge racing, sought by lovers of demanding racing simulation.
