    4 Stars Same Old Brand New PS2? 22/05/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Improved A.I., strong visuals for a launch title, fast, perfect handling

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Tracks aren't memorable, elements lifted from RR6, online could have been better

    Compared to the rip-roaring times of the late nineties, the last few years have seen the granddaddy of arcade racing games, Ridge Racer, enjoy a somewhat more leisurely existence. It goes about its business with the knowing swagger of an old-hand; still sharp and as stylish as they come, but these days tending only to wheel itself out for the glitzy premieres – that is, to compliment the launch of a new console. Editions V (PS2), 6 (360) and now Ridge Racer 7 (PS3) have been on hand to lead the line for their respective hardware launches, and though it’s a shame we rarely get to see a Ridge ... more

    5 Stars RR7: An excellent drift race game. 13/10/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Drift race style gameplay, good graphics,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sound track selection, car customization very limited.

    Like the CoD3, this is one of our first games for our PS3. And of course, I totally enjoyed the ride on this one. Ridge Racer has been around for so long, but despite the fact that there are many installments of the game released, this is the first one that I've played. And man was it awesome. Featuring around 40 machines(which is of course a work of fiction but nevertheless looks so cool!), this game gave me a really good time. First off is the gameplay. This racing game differs from others simply because it's concept relies mostly on drift racing(much like Battle Gear and Initial D for the ... more

    3 Stars Quick review of Ridge Racer 7 (PS3) by robbygraham 30/05/2007
    This game graphically is superior to all other ps3 games currently on the market as it can be played in full hd(1080p),the game play is fun but so unrealistic the way you can drift backwards round a corner this makes the game a little dull after a few races.

    4 Stars Alot Better Online! 11/03/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent Arcade Racer!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Same as the last game!

    If you enjoy Ridge Racer and aren't too fussed about change, you are likely to enjoy Ridge Racer 7. It's more of the same, yet again, but if you dig that you'll no doubt dig Namco's latest. I'm going to echo those sentiments with the multiplayer components too, Because if your expecting anything more of the same - but with real life opposition instead of suspect Al - you are likely to be disappointed. The multiplayer menu exudes all the gloss of the single player, but features extremely annoying background music that you can't change at all. There's so much gloss in fact - which includes ... more

    2 Stars Ridge Racer 7... A very Japanese game? 18/11/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages average racing game

    Disadvantages Disadvantages annoying menus, Japanese music (irritating), Annoying menus, Rubbish online play

    Ridge Racer 7... a very japanese game, let me explain... The first impressions of the game i thought were very impressive, however after a while you realise just what you got yourself into as the music gets very repetative and is very japanese which is not to my liking, its a bit like taking a top sports car and smashing it with a sledehammer, it ruins it and thats what the music does to this game. The game itself is very good with insane speeds and amazing drifts into the corners. The main screen and the sub menus are a bit annoying and japanese like with lots of strange things getting in the ... more
