Official Fact Sheet:
Kaido Racer is a fast-paced racing title that faithfully recreates some of Japan’s most famous mountain courses. The game features several authentically modeled courses taken from all over Japan, and invites players to test their skills in the mountain regions of Akagi, Zao, Aso and Haruna ? each of which is fraught with danger and will challenge even the most accomplished drivers. Each race is fought against a number of CPU-controlled drivers or against a friend, and mixes official tournaments with more lucrative night-time events.
At the core of Kaido Racer are a series of ‘Battle Modes’, which players are charged with winning in order to earn prize money. This can then be invested in new parts and upgrades for their car, or even buy new vehicles. Kaido Racer features a roster of 149 licensed vehicles, including Nissan, Subaru, Honda, and Alfa Romeo, all of which offer subtle variances in handling and performance. Each will be pushed to their very limit as the player engages in the four key ‘Battle’ events the game offers.
The ‘SP Battle’ sees players attempting to keep a special gauge as full as possible. Each driver has an on-screen ‘SP’ gauge which is depleted slightly every time they lose the lead or hit another car. Players must drive efficiently and aggressively to keep their gauge as full as possible and to empty those of rival racers. Similarly, the game’s ‘CA Battle’ accentuates the use of drifting, and rewards successful cornering. Players earn points for executing drifts when prompted, with the winner the player who accrues the most CA points.
The ‘FL/LF Battle’ will place the player either in first or last place on the starting grid. The player must then either hold on to the lead for the entire race or come from behind to win. Finally, the ‘TAC Battle’ mixes the racing genre’s customary ‘beat the clock’ elements with the aforementioned ‘SP Battle’ system as players try to keep their SP gauge topped up, while racing against a very strict time limit.
Kaido Racer also features a story mode that shows off the personalities of the rival drivers, and introduces the likes of ‘Slasher’, ‘Tricker’ and ‘Lovers’ ? very different people with very different driving styles. The interaction between characters is also furthered via an in-game BBC/Mail system which lets players communicate with other drivers using a simple email-style system; offering challenges or picking up tips from others using the boards.
The game also enjoys a special sound editor that allows players to create a personalised soundtrack to the game. Using a simple yet comprehensive menu system, players can create specific soundtracks using the wealth of music on offer. Everything from trance tracks to Euro-Pop is catered for and can be mixed together with ease to create the perfect soundtrack to Kaido Racer’s mountain challenges.

With a deadly objective ahead of them, Jak and his friends take to the treacherous terrain as they are thrown into the driver’s seat and find themselves racing against time in order to save the world.
As destructible objects, other racers and their ammunition and explosions careen by them, players will compete against each other at dangerous speeds as they participate in more than 100 events over the race season in Adventure mode. In addition, players will be tasked with a variety of missions spanning across other various play modes including Time Trial, Death Race and Arena Death Match as they rip up the terrain. To compete, six players can participate in head-to-head action utilizing a broadband connection, or two individuals can play against each other in multiplayer mode.
With more than a dozen customizable vehicles, featuring multiple segment “snap-ons” that include body parts, paint patterns and colors, and fun add-on accessories such as decals, bobble heads and antennae flags, each player can create their own vehicle to best reflect their personality. As many of the items are scarce and must be found through careful exploration, once players construct their car to their liking, they can then show off their finds online to their friends.
A diverse power-up system provides players multiple strategies for races and tasks, as players can pick up turbo, health and weapons as they complete their missions. The Eco power-up system is based on Jak’s world with each color representing a turbo, projectile, special weapon, repair and more. Power-ups include projectile weapons, smart bombs, mines, catastrophic attacks, shields and turbos, and each helps to deliver a more destructive and challenging experience for players.

Iron Aces 2 starts off as a WWII combat flight simulation. Since the missile did not exist at that time, pilots were forced to lock into deadly, close-quarters combat. Using tactical maneuvers, pilots flew within 400m of the enemy and fired with heavy machine guns. As you progress through the game you will travel through the history of combat aviation. The numerous missions are based with conflicts involving land, sea and air campaigns.
Iron Aces 2 is broken into Campaigns and Missions. There are more than 35 missions that must be completed in order to finish the game. As you successfully complete each campaign you are advanced to a new mission as well as a new era. What gives this game an added dimension is the Free Battle Mode. This section of the game allows for the choice of opposing aircraft regardless of the era from which it originates. No other combat flight simulator currently available for PlayStation 2 allows you to fly, say, an FA18 Hornet against a P51 Mustang in air-to-air combat.
More than 34 aircraft spanning the history of combat aviation. Over 35 combat missions with various target objectives. Fly modern day aircraft against vintage fighters.

Designed as a companion title for Konami’s world-renowned Pro Evolution Soccer series, ISS3 is a more arcade-orientated game than its stable-mate. Featuring a full selection of volleys, passes, flick-ons and rasping shots, ISS3 pits more than 90 FIFPro-endorsed international and club squads against each other in a variety of friendly and tournament matches. ISS3 also breaks new ground with the inclusion of a ‘Mission Mode’ wherein victorious players are awarded points after every match or by betting on the outcome of a two-player game, which can be used to build stadiums and unlock a wealth of special options and features.
ISS3 also extends this innovative approach to its on-field play, with KCE Osaka debuting an all-new ‘Close-Up’ mode. During the course of a match, an icon will flash above the head of a player as he nears the edge of the opposition’s penalty area. On pressing L1, the game seamlessly zooms in on the attacking player, changing the view to directly behind him and giving the user more control over his actions. By holding down the R2 button on the controller, feints, spins and skill moves can be used as ISS3 players attempt to beat defenders in their way, while the ‘Mission Mode’ also holds the key to a number of additional tricks and moves.
The true beauty of ISS3, however, is its ability to grow with the player. While the controls are designed to introduce novice fans to the football genre, the intuitive use of passes, through-balls and first-time shots means that precision one-touch play is also possible, while the individual stats attributed to each of the instantly recognisable football stars can also be used to the player’s advantage.
The game also benefits from the most detailed visuals in an ISS title to date. KCE Osaka has ensured that the sport’s most famous names are instantly recognisable both in terms of appearance and trademark moves, with key players particularly adept as free kicks, while others enjoy enviable distribution skills and can make seemingly impossible defence-splitting passes with ease.
With its four-player mode, professional commentary and stadium announcements, ISS3 is the most accessible yet entertaining arcade football title to date. Its deft moves, intelligent player AI and incredible visuals and sound combine to create a truly immersive and always entertaining football title guaranteed to leave its rivals trailing in its wake.

This virus, unlike a normal computer virus can be spread through ordinary power lines. It is capable of massive damage through disabling the power centers of any city chosen as a target.
The player, as a covert operative for the CIA, performs missions handed down by a high-ranking CIA member. The missions take the player through a conspiracy plot that leads right to the top! During the game the player will make choices that will ultimately impact the multiple endings of the game. Stay true to the tenets of the CIA and become a high-ranking officer, or carry out double agent objectives and work for the rogue Chinese terrorist organization known as the Xu.
Ice Nine takes place in first person mode. The player will not only have access to gadgets such as bugs and a high-tech PDA but also heavy ballistic equipment such as rocket launchers and remote mines. The player is also able to take on many disguises in the course of the game from enemies he has neutralized. Mission briefings are supplied at the beginning of each mission, and also updated mid-mission as the scenario changes to reflect the player’s decisions.
Multiple endings/mission objectives based on the player’s decisions made in the game. – Two distinct paths for replayability. Play through as committed CIA operative or a traitor focused on self-gain.
Unique ‘undercover time’ system. The player will need to mingle with the enemy through the disguise system, and gain necessary information to complete his mission.
Levels have distinct look and feel.
Game levels include playing through the CIA training facility known as The Farm, as well an offshore Chinese terrorist outpost complete with submarine base.
More than 15 different enemies with varied behavior, appearance, dialogue, and personality.
After the enemy is neutralized the player will be able to take their clothing and operate in disguise.
20 unique weapons/gadgets — including PDA that gives player information and can also be used as “tazer” gun.
Believable A.I. — enemies hide, run away when out of ammo, call for reinforcements, pick up grenades and try to throw them back and talk to each other in battle.
Realistic Physics Model — rubble tumbles to the ground when walls are blown away, chairs explode, tables buckle, plus kinetic energy redistribution: objects on tables move when the player bumps the table, paintings shake on walls when the player bumps into them.
Play alongside your fellow CIA agent Layla. She will work to carry out mission objectives for you and can be instructed to thwart enemies as needed. However, only time will tell which side she really works for.
Remember the first CIA tenet: “Nothing is what it seems?”.

It?s going to be an epic battle through the Street Fighter universe to find out once and for all who is the ultimate warrior.
