Namco Bandai has announced that they will be releasing free downloadable content for Ridge Racer 7 to the Japanese PlayStation Store on the day before Christmas...
Remakes and remasters have become a staple of this generation, and Ace Combat 7 Game Director Kazutoki Kono opened a couple of interesting polls on his Twitter account about two of Bandai Namco’s most classic series.
Give me every Ace Combat from 1 to 5 and any Ridge Racer will do. Flight Combat is my favorite genre, Ill take everything you can give me.
AC4 was my first experience not only of the series, but also my first PS2 game. Remember hammering it for hours at Xmas when I got it.
Would love to see it brought back :)
Eurogamer:
"December 3rd, 1994 - Sony launches the original PlayStation in Japan, bringing with it seismic shift in the nature of console gaming. The 2D era of sprites and bitmap art was coming to an end, with polygon-driven 3D the new standard in state-of-the-art visuals. The Sega Saturn launched a couple of weeks ahead of Sony's debut console, but it was the PlayStation that set the standard for technological innovation in this new era. Namco's Ridge Racer launched alongside the new hardware - and it was a revelation."
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiddgeeee Raaaaaaaaccceeeeeeeeeer, everyone!
Says Kaz. Never forget.
the space invader loading screen was great in that game, complete it all to unlock all the cars and the special black car. those were the days, no micro transactions to buy a faster car in those days.
please bandai-namco. bring these classics back with online multiplayer for psn and xbox live. the newer games are utter crap.
Damn! I completed this game 100% once. I got all the cars, did all the crazy challenges to unlock every last one of them. The Space invader thing, everything.
I just gotto say it: THOSE WERE THE DAYS!!! :))
As is becoming more and more common, the PlayStation Store in North America will be holding yet another Flash Sale that runs through the weekend, this time with the focus on racing games.
- PSLS
Nothing for me here, though I like how Sony has been pushing a lot of deals like Steam.
Whoo finally a PS4 flash sale... after I sold it. ):
Wtf one game? They really gotta step up PS4 sales man
nothing but crap i expected better then this oh well if gt 6 was in that list it be autobuy no brainer but its not
No, not fanboyism, but it seems that sony is making Japan it's priority. I think they finally realize there going to lose the other countries such as the U.S, Canada, Australia, etc...to the Xbox 360 and the Wii, and only have a strong fan base in Japan. if sony can eventually dominate japan, then they can stay alfoat else where.
Blue Dragon is the dominate game currently in japan, but I'm sure sony will have some wierd Japanese killer apps. for Japan in the coming months and maybe create a foothold, but maybe not. MS and Nintendo are doing hella fine as of now as well.
The next 5 to 6 months will be a very sticky time for sony and the ps3. If they don't succeed on some level, there not going to be around in 2008 as a gaming platform.
who says Sony is losin U.S and Canada, just so u know, it have been sold more units in the u.s than japan and sony is shippin more units 2 the u.s than japan... in which site do u find all this bullshit news?? must be msn.com??
Well if your wanting just some numbers, then check out http://nexgenwars.com/
Otherwise, the thoughts and feelings on sony losing the U.S. and others as well is everywhere.
