Ridge Racer 2 PSP Review

Title: Ridge Racer 2
Developer: Namco
Publisher: Namco
Genre: Racing

Two days ago I went to SM to download some PSP games. The first game I downloaded is Ridge Racer 2 unfortunately mine is in Japanese but what the hell I'm still playing it. The game is simple; just win the race or get a certain position to qualify into the next round and win the championship. The game also features arcade, time attack, duel, survival, and wireless battle. The game is really easy to play once you master drifting in this game. The drifting in fact is easy to master. The tracks are from the old ridge racer games but with a better visuals. The soundtrack is really good but unfortunately my games soundtrack isn't working but I still played this game before so I just ignore it. The game also has a good variety of cars and they have 3 different drift types. Standard, Mild, and Dynamic. You'll soon find out when you play this game. Also the game play is smooth.

There are some problems like the cars are just the same but with a higher speed. Sometimes the game can be boring because some races are just to easy. Yet there are some hard moments in the game but most of it is easy if you master drift.

Overall the game is very good. It takes you back to the old ridge racer games mixed with new visuals. So if you have a PSP, or your a fan of racing games. I recommend this game because of its game play, and its fun to play weather your killing time or you just wanted to play a racing game. It may not be realistic so don't compare this game to Forza or Granturismo because its an arcade style driving/racing game. So I'm giving this game an 8 out of 10. Its perfect but its a good game so try it out.
