Mark Plays... Ridge Racer 6 (Xbox 360)
23This video shows a bit of Ridge Racer 6 running on the Xbox 360. Reiko Nagase - the series mascot - has even more loose strands of animated hair and is rendered in gorgeous detail in the full motion video opening sequence.
This game is the single outing on the Xbox of this series, the rest can be found on various Playstation consoles. The goal of the game is to place 1st in a series of races. Nitro is introduced which a lot of racers from around that era have - it temporarily boosts the performance of your car. To me it always feels a little like cheating. The cars themselves are the familiar fictional cars that the Ridge Racer series is famous for.
There's a career mode called 'World Explorer' that allows you to 'live through' a career making choices on what races you want to race. There's new cars on offer but also mirroring and reversing of known tracks.
Ridge Racer 7 for the Playstation 3 is a 'sequel' to this game but basically seems to be something of a 'director's cut' adding more vehicles and tracks. The PSP and PSVita games are quite similar to this game.
If you are looking for another game in the Ridge Racer series that is often overlooked it's R:Racing Evolution on the Playstation 2.
One of the best Arcade racers out there - love the entire series.
