"Namco Bandai has taken a chance with Unbounded and it seems to have paid off. While it’s definitely not a true Ridge Racer game in the sense of its feel or look, it is still a solid arcade racer and one that hopefully Namco can take note on and build upon in the future."

I've tried it on my 760 & in all honesty it's not making any noticeable difference so I've switched it off & not bothering with it any more.
I game at 1080p as its the highest my monitor will go. I Used this DSR to play a few games at 4k but all it really did was decrease input sensitivity. After a good few retries & several close up inspections it does improve it but the difference is minute going on microscopic. At least on a 22" screen anyway, I would image it would be more noticeable on a bigger screen.
I see very little difference between the 1080p and the downsampled 4k. Frankly I can't tell much of a difference between my 1080p and my 1280p monitor, except for one being given 21" and the other being 30". Resolution past 1080p is the least important part of graphics. I think it's really about HDR, high def textures, number of polygons in a model, number of objects on screen, physics ..... We need to start putting increased horsepower to use improving gameplay. More enemies on screen, fully destructible environments, massive open world's, human like AI. The good news is a lot of this can be done server side. AI, massive persistent world's a and per the Crackdown demo, massive destructible environments. Wonder when we will get a mmo that looks like Crysis 3, has human fee liking AI like for a 5, destructible environments like Battlefield and particle/object physics like Crackdown. Also need to get rid of the redundant fetch quests and kill 20 spiders and replace with a great plot/story like BORDERLANDS or Balders Gate.

I didn't know there was another ridge racer game out :O
I MUST GET...
Its actually better than former RR games!On this one you actually need to Master and get the grip on how to slide,because that can make the difference from winning or losing a race.I find this game a revamp the series needed.After learning to master the slide way the fun is much better than any previous RR game.
Forever Rage Racer and Type 4.
I'm really liking the look of the game unfortionatly I don't have enough free time to add in another title lol
