    I might get this game now! But do you need to use the Origin service when purchasing the original game? Or can it be store bought?

    Being a Huge Japanese Tuner Car fan, Skylines in particular, I find it uber weird that they would have Every single GTR from the nissan stable, apart from the R33?
    They got the 2000GT-R from '72
    They got the R32 GT-R from '92 or 93
    They got my all time favourite the R34 GT'R from 99 or 02
    and the Nissan GTR
    But no R33?
