Ridge Racer V for PlayStation 2

Pros: Awesome graphics and performance

Cons: Car handling strange at times

Review: Ridge Racer 5 is an all around good game for PSX2. This is one of the few racing games out there available for the PSX2 at this time, but it definitely does a good job.

Ridge Racer is a citywide contest in Ridge City. The idea is that Ridge...

Pros: great graphics, overall value

Cons: can get repetitive

The Bottom Line: Just get it if you have a PS2!

Review: I am tired of reading all of the negative reviews about RRV. This is much better than everyone says. RRV is said to have "lost" the originality that R4 had. But V brings the Ridge Racer series back to its roots: Arcade Racing. Don't expect real-life...

Pros: Good Graphics, fun gameplay

Cons: Lack of track variety, strange physics not for everyone

The Bottom Line: If you want a fun arcade Racer for the PS2 this will do. However, outside of better graphics there's nothing really new here.

Review: I'm biased, racing games are the main reason I own a video game system, and life has never been the same since the Gran Tourismo games came out.

So now I have the latest and greatest video game system, and I needed a PS2 racing title. Enter...

Pros: Great racing, cool tracks, pretty realistic effects.

Cons: The annoying announcer, limited amount of car choices.

The Bottom Line: Great play for anyone, doesn't require licensing, realistic graphics, fulfills the need for speed!

Review: I bought this game as a Christmas gift, and soon after began reading negative reviews on it. I was very nervous that come Christmas, my fiance would be receiving a dud. Three months later, he has officially beaten the game, and is ready for another...

Pros: Great control, graphics, sense of speed, a handful of extras

Cons: Not a lot of depth despite variety, limited cars, tracks, awful "commentary"

The Bottom Line: Not entirely bad, just not entirely good, Ridge Racer V is one of those middle-of-the-road games that doesn't last long enough to recommend.

Review: When you think of the original PlayStation, one game you can't ignore discussing is Ridge Racer. The original Ridge Racer, despite being one single track and a very limited selection of vehicles, was one of the best early PS games and a bona fide system...

Pros: Good music, replays are good, graphics are nice.

Cons: Racing is unrealistic, physics are unheard of, no car damage, no licensed cars.

Review: *This is a review of the import version of Ridge Racer V, which is, as far as I know, exactly the same as the US release.*

I doubt too many people have played as many of the games in the Ridge Racer/Rage Racer series as I have. In fact, I...

Pros: Good racing graphics, a good amount of replay value

Cons: Tough/Difficult, not enough track variations, lousy racing sfx

Review: While Namco is more known for Pac-Man, since the start of Playstation Namco has released a well-known arcade racer series called Ridge Racer. The premise is simple, race, compete, get stuff, race more. With PS2 now out, it would be no surprise that we...

Pros: Great Graphics

Cons: Horrible gameplay

Review: Before I played Ridge Racer V, I was very unsure of how good or how bad the game was. I thought that it had some pretty big shoes to fill will the success of the ever popular Ridge Racer 4. It turned out that the game was pretty average. I own...

Pros: Very very very fun and addictive arcade-style gameplay.

Cons: Limited track variety, bad music.

The Bottom Line: If you enjoy arcade racing games, you should do yourself a favor and and check out this game.

Review: I love arcade-style driving games, but I cant stand driving games that focus on realism... Maybe I am just impatient... I dont know... But after finding out about Ridge Racer V through Gamespot I decided to give it a try, and I was very impressed. ...

Pros: Nice graphics, smooth tracks.

Cons: Not much change from 4th version, unrealistic.

The Bottom Line: Graphics are impresive, game lacks multplayer fun, and the control is tough.

Review: Ridge Racer: The Series
I find the whole Ridge Racer series to be lackluster. There are many crutial mistake made in almost every one of the titles to come out of this series. Cars bounce off walls and are left without damage. Is that what we...
