Ridge Racer 7

RRVII

Strengths: great graphics great gameplay overall great game

Weakness: seeing the road can be difficult sometimes

Just like its orgins ridge racer lives up to its name, just like before you race and drift around tracks, accept this time the graphics are alot better, and you get online play which is great. If you've played the others, or grew up in the arcade on this game, you should adapt very well and have a great time playing it.

So.. You get to race a car

Strengths: Good Graphics

Weakness: Everything Else

About halfway around the first lap, you'll find yourself becoming overly bored with the rest of the race. Over the years car games have gotten much better. This one hardly seems interesting in the least. The cars are impossible to control, they swing wildly at the slightest touch of the wheel. Boosting is a yawner, and there's nothing else redeeming about the game. I played this for about 2 hours...

Unrealistic

Strengths: None...

Weakness: Everything is waaaay too unrealistic!

To those who like the tuner type world...its not the game you wanna play. Cars don't handle how they should...you know what I mean. I hope this helps.

Ridge Racer 7

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: Unrealistic experience

Ridge Racer 7 is a typical Japanese racing offering on the PS3. It's one of the launch titles to demo the capability of the PS3 engine, which is pretty successful in that regard. Graphics is amazing and an improvement over the previous incarnations of the game. Unfortunately, that's where the goodness of the game stops. Car handling is unrealistic, especially if you are tuner who likes to tweak...

Ridge Racer 7 PS3

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: Too similar to Ridge Racer 6

Ridge Racer 7 is one of the launch titles for the PS3 system. This is not much a different game than Ridge Racer 6. There are some new racing courses, options and effects but everything else feels like the previous game. Being a launch title, this game didn't get much chance to fully explore graphical and computationally capabilities of the PS3. It plays and looks a tad inferior than the more...

Awesome game!!

Strengths: Graphical improvement from the last version, additional features and levels, yet utilizing the graphic capabilities of the PS3

Weakness: non

Awesome game!! Exactly a way to start, bringing in the old feel of the prior versions of Ridge Racer, yet bringing another and new twist that will challenge you for hours let alone many days...!

RR 7

Strengths: Graphics and drifting

Weakness: similar to Ridge Racer 6

This game is for the people who like to play drift driving. It is fun to play that ways. In addition its graphics is good. However, I don't see any improvement from Xbox 360's Ridge Racer 6 which was published an year earlier. I hope the game studio should be more creative...

Fun port of Ridge Racer 6

Strengths: Great graphics, fun to play if you like arcadey (non-realistic) driving games

Weakness: Not much different than Ridge Racer 6, sometimes the driving is a bit too unrealistic

Ridge Racer 7 is the traditional Playstation launch Ridge Racer title. However, instead of doing much new with the series, Namco chose to basically port the Xbox 360 "Ridge Racer 6" onto the PS3. By doing this they got a fun game with good graphics onto the PS3, but they did kind of miss the chance to either show off the PS3's abilities, and move the series ahead with significant new features....

A Rehash of Ridge Racer 6

Strengths: +Classic arcade racing action +Lots of options, courses and cars +Internet play

Weakness: -Not enough to differentiate itself from ridge racer 6 -Not enough new stuff to satisfy fans of previous games

Ridge racer again arrives as a launch title for a playstation platform. Ridge racer 7 doesn't do much to differentiate itself from ridge racer 6. All that is to be found is a few new courses, options, and some new graphical effects. This is still a fun game, but the rehashing is starting to get old.

Good graphics not that good a game

Strengths: Supports 1080p resolution, nice soundtrack

Weakness: Not that challenging, difficult controls

This game is not for hardcore gamers. My kids love this game and especially my son enjoys it a lot. But he doesn't care if he is having a hard time controlling the cars which drift a bit too much then they should. The graphics are excellent on a full HDTV. Which seems to be the only major plus point of the game. Namco could have done a better job at making the game more engaging.
