a classic. game is pretty barebones. soundtrack is absolutely rips though

Ridge Racer has a spectacular soundtrack.

Now, look Ridge Racer is an arcade classic and I think most will agree on that and it makes sense that one of the first Playstation racing titles was an arcade port, but there's an issue here—there just isn't enough content to make this feel like something worth owning. What you get are four cars (plus unlockables) and a short and long version of a track with two difficulty settings. It's better to look at this package as an amazing Drum 'n' Bass EP with a bonus game included.

Jogo até interessante pra uma primeira leva do ps1, não vou mencionar gráficos, mas peca um pouco em física e talvez um bocado em dirigibilidade, fazer curva é um sacrifício, o carro escorrega demais, sem contar que uma mecânica de drift faz muita falta, além do mais é um jogo bem curto e sem muitos atrativos.

only played this one day at the arcade but was by far the best thing there
