1st...The graphics on this game are very clean nice background detail...(excellent) 2nd...The sense of speed and car movement are very good as well...( very good) 3rd... Very good options and car selection after you win some races...(very good) 4th...The Music I just love it as with all the ridge racer series...(something for everyone) Techonish music... 5th...this is an ARCADE racer for those of you who dont know so dont expect the gran turismo similation type game... 6th...YOU WILL learn how to drift in this game... 7th...The only thing i didn't like about this game is the in game commentary..you know "hey that was great cornering " things like that. Every time another car uses Nitro you hear it and it gets very annoying after a while but you can turn this off in the options screen. 8th...For the price cause its now about 6 years old its still a fun game !!Read full review
Ridge Racer 6 is a slick game that has very smooth and stylish gameplay, the smooth gameplay will make you feel as though you are driving seriously fast. The graphics are alot better then previous Ridge Racer titles which was inevitable from the start due to the enormous power of the XBOX 360. The sounds in this game are made up from scratch so the cars sound completely different to actual cars, the made up sounds fit in with the made up cars which makes the sounds quite good. Nearly all of the music tracks in this game are medium tempo drum & base tracks which really fits into the style of racing of the game. The value of this game is enormous, the 1 player mode is enormous spanning over 235 races, there are a massive amount of cars to collect including 8 special cars, if all that doesn't impress you hop onto XBOX LIVE and play the world which will give you infinite replayability. Personally I think this game is a great game and almost any racing game fan will enjoy it.Read full review
We had heard from a friend that Ridge Racer 6 wasn't one of the best new games for XBox 360, but found a good eBay deal so we decided to try it anyhow. Somewhat disappointing! While the game itself isn't bad, it isn't up to par with other 360 games as far as graphics or features. I've read that some feel like they were just playing another PS2 game, and that's how we felt also. It is also essentially the same as the Ridge Racers of the past, with little or no added features or different components as what Racer fans have seen in the past. All in all, it is still a fun game, just maybe not what you would expect for your new 360. I would suggest renting it once before making the purchase to get a taste of it for yourself!
Despite the graphics not looking as good as games nowadays, this racing game is awesome. I get to relive playing one of my favorite racing games from my childhood. Game works great, and definitely worth the price

Ridge Racer is one of the longest running racing game franchises around and keeps going strong to this day because of it's unique style of gameplay. Some people just don't get what this game is all about. It's not a simulation like PGR, Forza or GT. It's not about blazing through races and smashing your opponent like Burnout or Flatout. (although the speed can get about as fast) This game is all about the Drift, the fantasy cars and creative tracks. With the addition of nitrous this year there is an added element of depth that was really needed to push the series into the next generation of Ridge Racer gaming. I wonder how I ever played RR before without it. The faster you are going when you enter a drift the faster the boost fills up, the longer the drift the longer it fills up. This really adds some strategy to the game. Just go online and see how the best in the world have figured out how and when to use this to get the best times on all the tracks. Overall the Graphics are Very Good and run at a smooth Frame Rate. Sure they could have been a little better but for a launch game they get the job done. The lighting, car designs, sound, music and environments are good. I have no complaints. The tracks are well designed and there are alot of them to race on. They have nice added touches like Planes, Helicopters and Balloons flying overhead, Day, Dusk and Nightime events, Giant Video screens, Cheering crowds, Waterfalls, Detailed Grasslands with Cows and more. There's alot of challenges to complete and this will keep you racing for a long time. In the future I hope they do add some vehicle damage and more over the top effects. But I still enjoyed this game and give it a 8.5 out of 10.Read full review
