Ridge Racer Gets an Upgrade on PS2! Does It Still Hold Up?

SUPPORT THE CHANNEL :   / videogameesoterica  

Ridge Racer is one of the best arcade racing game franchises of all time and Ridge Racer and Ridge Racer 2 are some of the best racing games for arcade gaming IMO. It’s retro games royalty and rivals what Sega did with Daytona USA. It’s one of the best arcade games of all time! and you gotta love the Namco System 22 arcade hardware as well. Retro games never looked so good (for a bit)...but Ridge Racer V really revamped the series for the then modern era on PS2 and it was considered one of the best PS2 games at launch...so let's check back in on it!

It's high time we talked about the Ridge Racer franchise on the channel, as its basically one of the most successful video game franchises ever made! But this is Video Game Esoterica...so we are going to be talking about this Ridge Racer retrospective a bit differently. From Ridge Racer to R4: Ridge Racer Type 4 to Rave Racer and Rage Racer with stops along the way for the PSP Ridge Racer Games, the Xbox 360 Ridge Racer 6 and of course Ridge Racer 7 on PS3! Plus more!
PS1 was my first 3D console ever and I still fondly remember it as being one of the best pieces of retro gaming hardware around!
