Why the fuck does nobody ever talk about the Ridge Racer games? They are so fucking fun, I love the ridiculous, almost on-rails drifting.

not to mention the fact that the music in literally all of the games except for Unbounded is absolutely spot on.

One big reason is that nobody knows they exist anymore.

HES THE ONE FOR ME

Because Unbounded was the last nail in the franchise coffin.
Hopefully that tease in AC7 actually means something and we end up getting a new one next generation, we severely lack good arcade racers nowadays.

THERE'S NO PLACE I'D RATHER BE

YEAH YEAH YEAaaahh

We really need a good arcade racer in these times

Maybe nfs heat?
not fucking likely but I have hope

I like listening to the soundtrack, I listen often.
Was kinda boring to play though

Eh I unironically liked Payback. The only problem with nfs is that the multiplayer dies in a month and the game doesnt have much replayability

not interested if the soundtrack doesn't consist of consistent fucking techno bangers

The soundtrack scares me im afraid it'll be modern to 40 shit but maybe they'll have a station called nfs retro or some shit with get low and riders on the storm

REAL RACING ROOTS '99 IN... THE BRIGHTEST NIGHT.

something about the final race being on new years is so fitting idk why.

REAL RACIN ROOTS '99 IN... PHANTOMILE

REAL RACING ROOTS '99 IN... WONDER HILL

Because Type 4 was the only good game in the series...

Add to the fact the soundtrack was way better than the gameplay as well. It's probably the best soundtrack out of all ps1 games though.

They are the most amazing games I ever played.
The driving and the speed just make it so good.
Shame that it died because Bamco would rather do shitty anime games instead

This still counts as a Ridge Racer game, even though it uses licensed cars.

TO THE FINISH LINE

I quite liked all of the mainline games after type 4 as well, I think we can all pretend unbounded doesn't exist though.

EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK HE'S RIGHT ON TIIIIiiiiIIIME

Namco needs to out more of their music online. This and Katamari are amazing.

maybe 7, but the rest were literal trash. never tried unbounded, but it looked terrible.

Why does every game kazutoki kono direct have an amazing soundtrack?

Knows how to work with music devs probably.

7 is basically 6 but with worse graphics and more content

First vidya I ever played (not this particular disk) I was like 6 I think.

Saw this at a local convention, bought it from some guy from Michigan for 5$

Sweet, the graphical improvement from the first game to Type 4 on the PSX is really impressive, you can really tell that Type 4 was pushing the PSX to its limits while still keeping it completely playable with a stable framerate and minimal pop-in.

Type 4 has the worst soundtrack in the series
It's still good but rave racer shits all over it

remember back when all racing games has race queens?
now they've all been sanitized and SJWfied
just look at the recent need for speed games for example of the ubishit racing games

This song alone got me interested in the series,
where's a good place to start Yea Forums?
Second question, anything I should start doing to break some old habits (only previous racing experience is kart racers)

Type 4s soundtrack is really good but thank you for bringing Rave Racer's soundtrack to my attention, this is good shit and I originally overlooked it

>reiko nagase
She was born in Tokyo on February 14th, 1975, which means that she's 24 by the time Ridge Racer Type 4 took place, or roughly 21 years old in Rage Racer, assuming the time setting is its present time of launch. As of the current day in 2019, she is 44 years old.
OLD AND BUSTED
HAG

Type 4 is pretty good, but I would suggest the PSP game, it is really good and it probably the easiest to get used to, also has a lot of content. After that move on to Type 4 then go wherever you choose after that.

This thing is fucking ancient but works like new, the book is sagging in the middle from sitting on a shelf for almost 30 years.
I don't have any consoles but it runs just fine in my buddies old PS3

What about for options outside of psp/vita.
Reason is:
A) Don't have a psp/vita
B) This craptop can barely handle minecraft above 30 fps so no way in hell will it run a psp emulator

riiiiidge raaaceeeer

>Type 4 has the worst soundtrack in the series
You're actually wrong, some songs are weak, but it's nowhere near the worst. Unbounded, and Ridge Racer 2's ost are a worse.

I hate you for making me waste time out of my life looking up these songs...

well that all depends on what you have.

XB360: Ridge Racer 6
PS3: Ridge Racer 7
PS2: Ridge Racer V
PSX: Ridge Racer Type 4

if you have the option then I'd suggest start out with Type 4.

PS3 also has T4.

Type 4 is on ps3 I believe, so I'll probably grab that then 7 afterwards and work my way down to V.
Thanks user!

I have that weird ps1 controller with the tiny steering wheel

Ask me anything
