Ridge Racer '7', isn't this getting a bit old now, does it have an option to not bother going by car and using you OAP bus pass instead?

OutLaw6537d ago

Well they could call it Rage Racer 2 so it doesn't seem that old. LOL

Moostache6537d ago

I will resist the urge to mock.

My problem with just about ANY game that has a sequel number higher than 4 is this - they generally lose innovation and start reheatign the same crap in any franchise by the third game. (Personal belief only, I know many will disagree.)

For me, I would ratehr see more new titles than a boatload of high numbered sequels.

Tekken 6?
Ridge Racer 7?
Final Fantasy 13?

YAAAAAWWWWWNNNNN.....

I would rather see Sony and Microsoft (and all publishers for that matter) put out more games like Gears of War or Mass Effect or Resistance and fewer high digit sequels. Of course, that is not gonna happen.

AuburnTiger6537d ago

Well if it's not going to happen, then why bit@h about it?

Lucidmantra6537d ago (Edited 6537d ago )

Why do you name yourself after a game that is 10 years old like it was the last great game created... Remember for every finger you point at someone else with there are 3 more pointing back at your stupid azz. I agree with him. The game industry is getting safe whgere it would rather buy 13 zillion copies of FF MCMXVII than to embrace the unique and good games like: Ico, psychonauts (i have heard), Indigo Prophecy....

FamoAmo6537d ago

Forza2 kills this!! After seeing Forza2 I can't believe they would release this!

Marriot VP6537d ago

come on don't leave me hanging, say it!!!!

Lucidmantra6537d ago

It's ridge Racer...
RIIIIIDDDDDDGGGGEEEEE RACCCERRRRR

With next-gen wheels turning when you move the joystick, and real-time gear shifting.

Marriot VP6537d ago

YAH, (high five VIA internet)

no_more_heroes6532d ago

The controls for this game piss me off!!! Worst controls for any racing game I have ever played!!!

Ace Combat 7 Director Asks Which Ace Combat and Ridge Racer Remakes You Want

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.

Abriael2954d ago (Edited 2954d ago )

I'd be happy with Ace 5 and RR T4 :D

And an Ace 3 actually localized without removing the whole story.

bouzebbal2954d ago

Ace combat everyone than 6.
RR type 4 was amazing.. One of my best memories

DevilOgreFish2954d ago

Ridge Racer 4 all the way.

Aenea2954d ago

I totally agree! Love flight games and racing games, whenever I bought a new PlayStation a Ridge Racer was always that I got with it, was kinda bummed there was (and still is) none for the PS4

CrazedFiend2953d ago (Edited 2953d ago )

Adventure and maybe even FPS games makes sense but Why do THESE games need remakes?

DafunkyRebel2953d ago

Ace Combat 5 was the best and most memorable hands down

4, 4, 4, 4. Ace Combat Four.

FITgamer2954d ago

Yeah boy. I spent so many hours on that game. One of my favorite PS2 games.

nix2953d ago

I played one where the wingman becomes the main villian. Can't remember which one it is.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi2954d ago

4 was the first one I played and it was really good. But I like 5 the best. Being able to control your comrades was great and the story was just slightly better. Though no one is more legendary than Mobius 1.

Bennibop2954d ago

Ridge racer 4 would be amazing!

ritchi452954d ago

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 :)

20 years of PlayStation: the Ridge Racer revolution - Digital Foundry revisits the PS1 game

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.

MK24ever3451d ago

That is actually in the game, that's why he said it that way... but I guess you're to young to know that.

rodiabloalmeida3451d ago (Edited 3451d ago )

You lost the bet. I played the very first Ridge Racer game on the first 32 bit Arcade machine when you were on dipers. Can't take a joke, huh?

MK24ever3450d ago

I can take a funny joke, not one trying to make fun of an internet Meme which was made based on ignorance. And what makes you think I was that young in 1993? Anyway, if I misjudged your intent with that comment I'm sorry for that, but with so many trolls on here sometimes it's hard to differentiate jokes from trolling.

rodiabloalmeida3450d ago

Just don't take things too serious. That works for me. And that wasn't even a try for a joke. It was just a memory that everyone shares, at least the ones who follows the Sony brand. ;)

Hoffmann3451d ago

The music of Ridge Racer 1-5 still beats the scores from the later games though!

madmonkey013451d ago

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.

NaAsAr3451d ago

please bandai-namco. bring these classics back with online multiplayer for psn and xbox live. the newer games are utter crap.

Tapani3451d ago

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!!! :))

How to Train Your Dragon's a racing game?

Eidolon3526d ago (Edited 3526d ago )

A lot of flying around on your dragon and timed stuff... so yeah I think it can be categorized as racing if anything.

3-4-53525d ago

Pretty decent sale for Vita.

URNightmare3525d ago

I bought Asphalt Injection and Cel Damage(cross-buy PS3/PS4/PSV) I also came across a free-to-play game on Vita I never heard of before, Deathmatch Village.

KenzaZo3525d ago

Free to Play is an advertising gimmick.

Wedge193526d ago

Weird sale this time around.

dbjj120883526d ago

Nothing for me here, though I like how Sony has been pushing a lot of deals like Steam.

GundalfDeGrej3526d ago

A good example of how competition is good for the consumer :)

InTheZoneAC3526d ago

I don't think steam has any affect on what sales go on the ps store...sony has always been about good deals...

LackTrue4K3526d ago

lol...the "agrees"

you got, shows just how much Sony has come over anything Steam can ever offer.

Dontworrybhappy3526d ago (Edited 3526d ago )

Whoo finally a PS4 flash sale... after I sold it. ):
Wtf one game? They really gotta step up PS4 sales man

T3mpr1x3526d ago

I agree. Would not sell my PS4 anytime soon, though!

EasyOneTwoThree3526d ago

Xbox fanboy pretending he sold his PS4! GTFO!

larrysdirtydrawss3525d ago

how can you sell yours when you havent even bought a ps4 yet queer

ramiuk13525d ago

its a silly time to sell a ps4 dude.
lot of great games coming now

RosweeSon3525d ago

Yeah clearly that's what's needed with 10 million plus consoles sold before or just after destiny launched.

PudgeyBurrito3525d ago

Clearly just pissed the xbone can't get over 5.5 mill. Playstation is wiping it's ass with the xbone.. it's hilarious.

ARESWARLORD3525d ago (Edited 3525d ago )

He may have sold it. I sold my launch PS4 to buy the Titanfall bundle. then I saved up and worked some overtime for the summer and yesterday I bought the PS4 last of us bundle with a second controller and second son on the side (and knack for my kid). People sell things all the time for different reasons. I was called a liar as well on this site when I sold mine. Why would someone make that up?

choujij3525d ago

@Areswarlord

I believe you, but it's probably the way he said it. At my friend's game store, he's had 2 people trade in their PS4s for Xbones, and he's had 8 people trade in their Xbones for PS4s. So it indeed happens.

ainTgoTTime2bleed3525d ago

''Clearly just pissed the xbone can't get over 5.5 mill shipped''...fixed!.... lol
