Using the first 4 Ride Racer games, all of which were released on the original PlayStation (PS ONE), it is easy to see how the graphics of the games have evolved within this console generation. I must say that the game developers have already made great progress at that time.
Bandai Namco Entertainment, formerly Namco, created and released the Ridge Racer[a] racing video game series for arcade and home gaming consoles. Ridge Racer, the first game, was first made available for the Namco System 22 hardware in arcades in 1993. It was then transferred to the PlayStation two years later as a launch product. The most recent was the Android and iOS game Ridge Racer Draw & Drift. It was followed by a number of sequels and spin-off games for other platforms (2016). In order to finish first in a race, the player competes against opponents controlled by a computer. The series heavily relies on drifting, which is a technique for maintaining speed while making turns.

A racing video game called Ridge Racer was created and released by Namco in 1993. It debuted on the Namco System 22 arcade system board, then in 1994 it was converted to the PlayStation platform.

In 1997, it was made available in the United States and Europe. It was the first game in the franchise to have an animated CGI intro, and Reiko Nagase was debuted as a new "mascot."
Ridge Racer Revolution
In 1995, Namco created and released Ridge Racer Revolution, an arcade racing game for the PlayStation. It is Ridge Racer's PlayStation follow-up. Similar to the first Ridge Racer, the player competes in a series of races driving computer-controlled cars while using Namco's NeGcon controller. The development of Ridge Racer Revolution, which adds two secret vehicles and two-player functionality through the PlayStation Link cable, took about as long as the initial game. The goal was to expand features and deepen the content.
