Create the ultimate ride
The classic drift racing game returns to the PlayStation brand in style and with loads of new customization features. In exterior creation mode, players can select, view, and apply body kits for almost any area of their car. Kits include lowers, lifts, airflow and even major body modification. Once the kits are applied, players can head to the paint and body shop to have their specific paint tone applied as the backdrop for their killer custom decals. If you're ride still isn't hot enough, consider adding some wheels from the wheel shop for that extra bit of style.
If exteriors aren't your thing, then consider fine tuning the handing. Customizable Handling mode allows you to tweak cornering performance by adjusting tire pressure and suspension to your chosen settings. Feel the turns with sport suspension or soften the landings with something more touring oriented. Either way, you can pick just the right feel for your favorite track, rival racer, or experience level.
Nitrous boosts have always been a central part to any racers' strategy, but before Ridge Racer 7 there wasn't any control over the type or amount of gas. Now, you have total control over such minutiae as the number of tanks, charge rate, even total boost limit. If you prefer to have more control over nitrous while racing, consider the new "flex nitrous," which can be turned off or on at the driver's discretion.
Improved cars, improved performance
A wide range of sports cars are available in Ridge Racer, with over 40 to choose from. Including the customization options listed above, each car has over 200,000 variations in terms of control and appearance. Debuting in this title are two impressive sportsters: the Centellee and the Magnifico. The Centellee from Terrazi Motors blasts off the line with a 4000cc V8 engine and has an unbelievable top speed of just over 210 mph. Not to skimp on looks, the body of the Centellee is hand-crafted and recreated perfectly on-screen.
Another other welcome addition to the Ridge Racer family is the Magnifico, known the world round for its unmatched luxurious interior. One of the new generation of light bodied sports cars, the Magnifico can ramp up to 178 mph via a 2000cc 4-cyvlinder inline engine.
On the track, the cars still accelerate and drift in that quintessential Ridge Racer arcade style. Large, sliding turns and short bursts of air are the name of the game as you speed past your opponents in a blur of color. The track count for this installment has been pushed to an astonishing 44- more tracks than any any previous Ridge Racer title. The variety of locales is truly astounding, as you'll be racing by rushing waterfalls one minute and near the top of a snow-capped peak the next. The track layouts have something for every racing fan and style. Ridge Racer 7 grabs the PlayStation 3's processing power and doesn't let go. Running in 1080p high definition video at 60 frames per second, the courses look lusher, the tracks feel faster, and the cars look gorgeous.

Excellent Car Racing Game - Not a very easy one
I am reviewing this because of the many unfair negative reviews that I have read. The game graphics are superb. My TV is High Definition and running the games in 1080i (Maximum resolution of my TV), the game graphics are unbelievable.
The game play is also superb. The game is not easy, I would say that it is medium in difficulty. The cornerstone of the game is drifting the car and being able to control the car drifting in corners at very high speeds. You win races, get credit and new equipment and then buy more equipment and so on. It takes a few hours to really master drifting properly. AND then the fun begins.
Once you mastered the game and won the huge amounts of single player games on the games itself, you can then compete online. There are many wonderful tracks with immaculate scenery. The games allows you to play any of those, with any of the huge number of cars that you have, in normal or reverse directions. The possible iterations are endless.
Another impressive thing about the game is the handling of the cars. Each car feels different and handles differently. The upgrades to each of the cars changes the experience entirely.
To-Date, this is the best Game I have on the PS3, and I find myself playing for hours. Very Challenging in parts, and really fun.
It also support to players where you can race against a second player on the same machine.
The Game is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
The Next Gen Racing King
Hi, I own this for my PS3, and I love it! The graphics make the cars look incredbily real. I think the game is very fun. The only slight draw to this is that the controls at the beginning were kinda hard to get in your head, but after I played it for about a week, I really got the hang of it. When you're in grand prixs, you really get into the races because it's so much fun, and it looks so realistic. My brother came in and asked me if I was watching TV or playing a game, he couldn't tell the difference, it's that good! A great buy anywhere Five Stars!
fun arcade racer/party game
I bought this game on the rebound after I went looking for Motor Storm before finding out it doesnt release until feb 27, so I think it may have affected my enthusiasm for the game. I went home and put it in the system and played a few races, started a career mode, and so on, and came to the conlusion RR-7 was a an ok arcade racing game. The career mode doesn't come alive the way Gran Turismo does, and the game play itself is cartoonish, although the visuals and speed of the game are outstanding. So that was my opinion after one day: Ridge Racer 7 was ok. But then, something unexpected happened. I had some friends over to play the new ps3, and after about two hours of dunking on each other in NBA 2k7, someone said "hey, hows the new ridge racer?" I told him it was ok, so we put it on to let the group decide. All of a sudden, the cartoonish arcade racer with the gorgeous visuals and lightning speed gameplay had every one jumping out their seats. Because it lacks the realism of Gran Turismo, it is very easy for a black horse to get back in the race: one spin out or meeting with the wall will not get you out of the race. Almost every race went down to the wire, and the nitrous tanks really add some strategy to what could have been just a flashier version of "Driving USA". If your looking for an in-depth, life-like racer, this is not the game for you. But if your looking for a game that has stunning visuals, the fastest gameplay ever seen in a racer, and loads of excitement, than Ridge Racer 7 on the PS3 is definately worth a test drive.
