Jogo curtinho e muito bom de jogar.

An average racing game I would play anytime over any Need for Speed.

joguei no ps3, a trilha sonora é realmente muito insana, e considerando a epoca de lançamento esse jogo tem uma campanha até que bem trabalhada pra um jogo de corrida. valeu a diversão mesmo não sendo o estilo de jogo de corrida que mais curto (e sendo bem ruim no jogo tbm)

This game has one of the best soundtracks for a racing game.


Love this game and it's ost, I'm absolutely garbage at drifiting though

"Will you forgive me if I have a dream again?"

eu aprendi a gostar de jogos de corrida AGORA.
JOGAO.

meu deus do céu que jogo bom eu nem sabia que gostava de jogo de corrida

tbh if you're after a lot of content or a perfected driving model I'd point you towards 2 PSP (my personal favorite) or 7, but as a playable piece of art R4 is unmatched. The presentation and uniquely unfolding grand prix mode are the stars of the show and they don't disappoint.
reiko nagase my beloved

Almost of a type of minimalist racing game. It has simple racing mechanics that still offer depth and a satisfyinig learning curve. There's only 8 tracks, but it results in them all being incredibly varied, unique, and memorable. The gorgeous PS1 visuals, the simple yet heartwarming stories to play out, the stylish UI, and by god, that music.
A game I'm sure I'll revisit when I want to just sit down for an hour or two and sink back into the vibes

Superficially an arcade racing game, but multiple campaign playthroughts reveal it's subtlety. You get different cars and different story beats based on what place you take, and how many tries each race takes. The music is timeless. The car designs are incredible. The best there's ever been

i take turn in this game the same way i do in real life, Fast. Drifting. and Drunk.

Worth it for the soundtrack alone.

I've never thought a simple ass racer could grip me so hard I wish i could have a threesome with this game

this game has a romance thing going on which i think its funny even though i paid no attention to it

A pretty simple racing game that makes up for lack of complexity with an abundance of style in its graphics and music.

Fantastic game with unsurpassed handling for an arcade racer and excellent music. I also highlight the cute "story mode" that they added. Definitely one of the top arcade racers of all times.

Favorite racing game that isn't F-Zero GX. The style and music are iconic

A very incredibly stylish and aesthetically pleasing racing game. For just 2 hours, the grand prix itself is enough to give such a satisfying racing experience with incredible music to boot.

oh my god. oh my god i get it. literally everyone was right this whole time. i didnt even think i LIKED racing games

Achei o jogo por causa da OST no começo do ano e não me arrependo, apesar do jogo ser um pouco ultrapassado e não ter muito conteúdo, o que é justificável já que era um jogo de PS2, o jogo tem muito carisma e personalidade e definitivamente, estilo, desde a música (que me fez começar a jogar) aos personagens até o narrador, recomendo
-one more win-

Not exactly a lot of content, but a lot of soul for sure.


this game enticed me with its immaculate presentation. okay, it was mostly the ui design that i think is absolutely incredible, but the cars, the tracks, the music, the whole look and feel of this game is unmatched. it might be my favourite ui design in any game. and the game itself is pretty fun, too. the cars all feel very different to drive and all present their own challenges. its very rewarding to learn the layouts of the tracks, trying to perfectly nail each corner just right and slowly getting better and better at it as you play. i loved going through each of the campaigns and learning about the stories of each of the racing teams, watching each of the characters overcome their own personal struggles thanks to my sick driving skills. its all very cute.

unfortunately, i just kinda didn't enjoy the actual driving mechanics very much? the cars all felt very floaty and sometimes didn't behave exactly how i wanted them to. maybe that's mostly up to my own lack of skill, but the cars felt quite unforgiving when trying to take corners. it was especially frustrating in the expert grand prix, when making any kind of mistake kind of guarantees a loss.

but, i still had a lot of fun with this game. honestly, the presentation is so good that it might even make up for the somewhat annoying driving mechanics, so i reckon its still worth playing.

This is a case study for how much presentation matters in a video game. Its controls and length are on the simple side, but how could you possibly feel bored playing it?

Everything about this game is so kino except the game. I'm sure it's a good racing game, but I enjoy running around the tracks on time trial absorbing the atmosphere of the tracks more than the actual game. The music and menus are god tier.

Society if Ridge Racer Type 4 gameplay was put in the bottom of Tik Toks instead of GTA V or Minecraft Parkour:
