Had a lot of nostalgia for this game as a kid so I revisited it in 2023 and got gold medals in every single race event (not in Crash though). My conclusion is that it's an extremely fun and chaotic game when everything goes right, however traffic becomes a huge and infuriating issue with how often crashing a single time loses you a race instantly (especially on burning laps) and how often the game will just spawn a car right in front of you when going through crossings.
Was expecting this to be kinda lame and shlocky in the way low budget licensed anime games tend to be but this game is actually pretty sweet. It's a non-canon story where Kaiji participates in restricted RPS aboard the Espoir a second time and you play as a random John Doe to try and fix your life.
Game has a couple branching paths and different endings and it's a pretty fun game if you like Kaiji. It's JUST restricted RPS but the game lets you scout information like what cards other participants have so you can count the cards and use all that info to your advantage like they do in the anime. Great stuff.

Might actually be the greatest racing game of all time. A joyful fusion of JRPG and racing game. The customization aspect is incredible and it makes it so much fun to try and go through the game with all sorts of car types.
Soundtrack is just actually an absolute banger and listening to the music while driving around the towns never gets old.
The story is absolutely batshit insane and I love every second of it. It's absolutely ridiculous and played completely straight which makes it all very enjoyable.
