Description
From the days of the PS one, this downloadable game allows you to play the classic original on your PSP handheld system or PS3 home console.
Get ready for the ride of your life as you strap in for a time-tested classic. The original high-octane racing challenge for the PlayStation, Ridge Racer is based on a wildly successful arcade game. Bringing its signature graphics, realistic driving physics, and awesome soundtrack to you living room, Ridge Racer has all of the excitement you'd expect from a coin-operated game and the detailed simulation of a PlayStation title. Choose from 13 different vehicles as you race your way to fame and glory. In lap after detailed lap, you'll have to do whatever's necessary to take the lead and defend your position. This is the game that introduced the now infamous "powerslide" move, a method of making turns without losing momentum. If the standard issue courses aren't enough for you, try reversing them! Each track has the capacity to be flipped, making for twice as much racing. The game is full of its share of surprises, including the opportunity to crash into a helicopter. Whether you're a racing fan or you're just looking for a seminal videogame title, you're sure to enjoy Ridge Racer.
PSP installment in Namco's long-running racing series. The launch title for the platform offers single race, world tour, multiplayer and options. Time attack lets you select a course and race against a ghost car in order to beat your times. Single race takes place against twelve other racers. Options lets you customize settings and play through a few mini games (such as Rally X) and access an "AV Theater" where you can watch replay style races with the computer as the driver. World Tour is the main mode of focus for the single player Ridge Racers experience, and there seems to be a whole lot to it. Choose from a number of pre-set tours that take you through multiple race sessions set on different tracks. You can also have the game generate a tour randomly. Races are set up like a cup in other race games, with each race held separately. You need to clear a certain position in order to advance through the tour.
