Battle Gear 3 2002 version's audiovisual related features have been improved for the PlayStation 2 (and for the Tuned version). The sound of the engine and new songs (according to the extra courses) were added. Natural sounds such as birds and bugs were introduced. In the other hand, the visual design was all renewed.
Two editions were released in Japan, a standard version including the Battle Gear Net Entry Key and a Limited Edition (初回限定版) bundled with a Tomica die-cast Nissan Skyline (R34) tuned by Taito original model. The "Net Entry Key" is a secure device manufactured by Nesys and designed with a personal code required to register the Battle Gear Net arena from the game's custom designed arcade cabinet only delivered in Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Australia and New Zealand. The key is used to compete in local game centers’ sponsored championships, to upload Best Time records, to unlock car parts and extra cars, and to save the personal tuning settings and custom plate. Once the key is registered, the gamer gets a unique Net ID and its associated password; Both are required to create a "Network Game Profile" savefile on the PlayStation 2 and access the "Main Race" section and its online exclusive contents such as the "Event Race", "Online Time Attack" and "Online Battle Gear" extra game modes.

Famous quotes containing the words domestic and/or versions:
“What we men share is the experience of having been raised by women in a culture that stopped our fathers from being close enough to teach us how to be men, in a world in which men were discouraged from talking about our masculinity and questioning its roots and its mystique, in a world that glorified masculinity and gave us impossibly unachievable myths of masculine heroics, but no domestic models to teach us how to do it.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
—Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
