Ridge Racers Impressions

I am still loving Ridge Racers, but for some reason the BGM doesn't play any more, AT ALL! And I have checked options to make sure it's turned up.

W.T.F.!?!?!?!?!?
 
Glad to hear you finally got it. My d-pad squeaks like hell too, but I hope it'll get better over time. Now... get Lumines! It's an order!

A luanch title in America maybe, but it Japan it released 8 months after launch. A fairer comparison would be VF3tb and Ridge Racers (both pretty high end launch games).

Not even, since VF3tb was quickly ported, and by Genki. AM2 could have likely done a much better job. VF3 was also already two years old when it hit the Dreamcast. I'd say Sonic Adventure was the first "big" game for the system, coming out about a month after launch. That first month's few releases were all pure crap (except for VF), too. :lol

I think it will get better with time. My square button sticked a little and also squeaked at times, but after a week or two, the problems were gone.

A friend (with a PSP) came to home yesterday and had the chance to play it. The game is kinda fun but I suck at puzzle games...perhaps if someone tracks a 2nd hand copy I'll buy it but the one I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT AT LAUNCH is still awaiting for me. I am talking of course of Vampire Chronicles !!!!!


Returning to Ridge Racers it's a bit curious the fact that not all the tracks look the same. I have the feeling that the Rave Racer mountain track asphalt is rendered at an insanelly high resolution while the one in Ridge Racer City looks pretty crappy...talk about different effects.
