Wangan Midnight (2002)
The first console game based on the Wangan Midnight manga, being a port of the arcade game Wangan Midnight.
AC Scenario mode
If you want an arcade experience of Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero, this is the closest you'll ever get. This mode works as you'd expect, pick an entry point for the Wangan network of highways, a car, and of you go!
The structure of this mode is pretty simple, win 8 stages and you'll successfully complete it. If you do that under some circumstances, you'll get a reward. Here are the requirements necessary to fullfill in order to get them:
- Use a stock car or Tatsuya's Porsche RUF 911 (964) RCT: unlocks the Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) (type A) from Akio Asakura
- Use Akio's Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) (type A): unlocks the Porsche RUF 911 (964) RCT (type A) from Tatsuya Shima
Something else worth noting, is that like with the mission mode, some characters break their engines at certain points and have to quit the races. Surprisingly, this mode also includes some of those accidents, and while confirming their existence and finding more is almost impossible due to the nature of this mode, don't take for granted that these special triggers may happen to you. So without further ado, here's said list:
- Yamanaka: spins out on the S turn at C1 before the entry point to Yaesu (anti-clockwise side)
- Keiichiro Aizawa: breaks the engine on the S turn at C1 before the entry point to Yaesu (clockwise side)
- Eiji Kamiya and Koichi Hiramoto: they break the engine on the exit that bring you from Shinkanjo to Wangan, and after crossing Haneda's tunnel
- Takayuki Kuroki: breaks the engine at the entrance of Haneda's tunnel
- Masaki: breaks the engine on Akasaka's straight (anti-clockwise side)

Change the song of a replay file for the opening song for the AC scenario mode
Steps to activate the secret:
- Before entering a replay file, hold the R2 button.
Notes:
Restarting the replay file (by pressing the Start button) without pressing the button will deactivate the cheat, although doing it while pressing the R2 button will keep the song.

Play Mission mode in a harder difficulty
Steps to activate the secret:

Notes:
If the command was done correctly, you'll hear the jingle of going backwards and you'll see the VS text (in the mission briefing scene that acts as a loading screen) and the replay name file in red. This mode only adds one lose condition: crashing onto anything will be an instant loss.
Mission mode
A japanese exclusive game, based on a sports manga that involves illegal street racing? No, Initial D Special Stage it is not, this is Wangan Midnight for the PS2!
Like the other game just mentioned, this game lets you replay the races done in the manga the game is based of in all of its glory, even though its replay value is inferior to the SEGA's game.
Regardless of that, it's still a mode that you wanna play, considering that most of the vehicles that you can unlock in this game can ONLY be obtained by playing through this mode.

Tuning mode
The last part of the mission mode, and probably the hardest one by far. Once you finish completing at least once each of the missions given before, this mode will be unlocked alongside the mission mode credits, giving you the chance of unlocking some extra cars from the manga.
The structure of this mode is pretty simple, you do six races in a row given to you by 6 tuners of the manga, and you'll be given a rating based on your performance, being E the lowest possible and S the highest one.
Once you have chosen the stock car that you want to use for this mode, you'll be given the following challenges to complete:
- Body tune (Yuichi Takagi): this is probably the hardest mission of the bunch, since crashing onto anything (that includes traffic) will stop the race and you will receive an E. A lap time of 1 minute and 10 seconds around the northest part of the C1 loop will net you the coveted S rating for this race.
- Aero tune (Gen Sasaki): now you simply have to make a lap around the southest part of the C1 loop as fast as possible. The catch here is that getting an S requires you to complete the lap in less than 1 minutes and 40 seconds without crashing onto any wall.
- Engine tune (Jun Kitami/Rikako Ohta): well, this specific mission alongside the next one have two different scenarios (you can't decide which one you get, it's completely random, unless you trigger a specific cheat). If Kitami is the one who will tune the engine for your car, make sure to leave Tatsuya's stamina bar empty before the time runs out for a S rating. Otherwise, Akio's stamina bar must be empty before the time runs out if you want to get a S rating.
- Suspension tune (Kazuhiko Yamamoto/Kazuo Ohta): the same deal as before, two different scenarios for the same mission. A S rating requires you to complete the race in less than 2 minutes and 25 seconds in both cases.
- Muffler tune (Shige): like before, the hardest part of these races are simply catching up with the opponent, so make sure to keep your crashes score to a 0 if you want to get an S rating, which requires you emptying Eiji's stamina bar before time runs out.
- CP tune (Ko Tominaga): the last challenge of the bunch, and is largest one by quite a bit. Do a lap on the C1 loop in less than 3 minutes and 30 seconds to snack the last S rating.
Finish these races, and if you manage to comply with the requirements shown below, you'll unlock some of the cars used by the characters in the manga:
- Total rank E: unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (BCNR33) from Ryoichi Teizuka
- Total rank D: unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (BCNR33) from Jun Sonoda
- Total rank C: unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (BCNR33) from Yasuo Motoki
- Total rank B: unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec II (BNR34) from Kazuhiko Yamamoto
- Total rank B (while doing the Rikako Ohta mission): unlocks the Nissan Fairlady Z 300ZX (Z31) from Harada
- Total rank A: unlocks the Mazda RX-7 Type R (FD3S) from Kazuo Ohta
- Total rank A (while doing the Rikako Ohta mission): unlocks the Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) (type B) from Akio Asakura
- Total rank A (with a B on the CP tune mission): unlocks the Toyota Celsior 4.0 V8 (UCF10) from Gen Sasaki
- Total rank A (with an A with the Jun Kitami mission and an A on the Kazuhiko Yamamoto mission): unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R (BNR32) (type C) from Reina Akikawa
- Total rank A (with a S on the Kazuhiko Yamamoto mission and an A on the CP tune mission): unlocks the Nissan Skyline GT-R (BNR32) (type B) from Reina Akikawa
- Total rank S: unlocks the Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) (type C) from Akio Asakura
- Total rank S (while doing the Rikako Ohta mission): unlocks the Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) (type B) from Keiichiro Aizawa
As an important note, you can only unlock ONE car per run at maximum, and the game will first prioritize the car with the lowest requirement to unlock it. For example, if you get a total rank A with the Rikako Ohta mission but you don't even have the reward for getting a total rank of A in general, you'll receive the reward for the second condition described here, as it is the more easier to get.
