Initial D Special Stage

Initial D Special Stage is a 2003 PlayStation 2 racing game based on the Initial D series. It is a console port of Initial D Arcade Stage Ver. 2.

Premise
Just like the Arcade games, the main objective for the player is to race against different opponents from the manga. However, unlike the Arcade Stage series, there is a special story mode in the game. This story mode requires players to play as Takumi Fujiwara and Keisuke Takahashi as you replay the different events that happened in the manga.

During cutscenes the characters (voiced by their respective voice actors) talk and interact with the player prior to the race, a first for the series.
