Namco Bandai revs up new PSP Ridge Racer

I feel stupid for asking but is this game coming to north america?

The original Ridge Racers was an awesome launch game, and even though RR2 looks almost identical, it will probably still pack quite a few thrills. I haven't played any of the older RR titles, so the tracks should be all new to me. Here's hoping for some more barefoot Reiko Nagase fanservice too! ^_^

i hope it has game sharing coz not much ppl buy it looks good though, alot of content

if anyone has the original "Ridge Racer Soundtrack of Ridge Laser LD" it has the announcer saying "RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE RACEEEEEEEEEEEEEER TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" so it kinda fits i guess

I will buy RR 2 if it has online play like Outrun on psp. And I also completed all the tour modes on RR 1.

I have finished ALL MAX TOURS on Ridge Racer and that's still not enough for me, so I'm gonna get this second installment for sure! Hopefully more "weird" cars, BGM and... more Reiko Nagase! RIIIIIIDGE RAAAACCERRRRRR!

Save your buks for PSP Gran Turismo.. If it ever comes out. Get off your butts SCEA Bums

I still think R4 on the PSX is the best !! I just loved the storyline and the tracks. I hope they add more this time round on the PSP. And maybe a little more Reiko Nagase please? (^^) hehehe!!!

As I said on the boards, THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME. I would love the opportunity to race around some more RR4 tracks, and I hope more cars from that make it in. I will love Namco forever now, especially if they bring back the original Pac-Man car.

um...hot as heck! ridge racer makes me feel special (looks at game case) not really

I won't buy Riiiidggee Raccer! RIDGE RACER

*snaps fingers* "movin to the beat"......R4 is the best

Okay.. my turn... RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICOLA!!! ....wait, that's not right...

its about time for psp...

*jumps on the band-wagon* Its Ridge Racer, Riiiiiiiiiiidge Raaaaaaaaaacerrrrrr!!!!!! hmm... I wonder if they'll be any playable Giant Crabs... Or a Giant Crabby Car, or a Giant Crabby-Themed Track??? btw, Burnout FTW

if you played one ridge racer, you played them all....

once you played one ridge racer, you played them all....

One can never have enough Ridge Racer.

Looks cool doubt I will get around to playing RRRIIIIGGGGDDDEEE RRRAAACCCERRR!!!

The RIIIIIIDDGGEE RRRAAAACCCCEEEERRRR series has been dethroned by Burnout long ago.

Are they ever going to change phisical engine?!

I

Okay... my turn.... Ridge Racer... RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE RACERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Even I couldn't resist...

All right!!! RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDGGGGE RACCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEERRRRR!

Sweet!

ITS RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDGGGGE RACCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEERRRRR, HAD TO DO IT, AHHH , FEEL MUCH BETTTER NOW, WILL BUY IT.

Neat. I don't have plans to buy it, nor a PSP for that matter, but I guess it's neat because there's another version of it. .........damn, I can't resist... It's Ridge Racer. RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE RAAAAAAAAACER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More of the same.Yawn-tastic!

1 2 3 GO Ridge Racers, can't wait give me the game NOW

actually playing through the first one (psp) i'm on Max tour 42 round 3 AND MAN IT'S HARD

Great news!!! I really like the Ridge Racer franchise and this game really seems that a must have.

there is no DS Riiiiiidge Raaaaaceeeeeeer ..? WTF? wow then i can sell my Riiiiiidge Raaaaacceeeeer DS as a super-rare item then? misinformed eejit.

Excellent!!

i enjoyed R4 on the original PS,never turned to look on the first RR that came on the PSP.nonetheless impressed by what has been shown on RR set to release on the PS3.Wonder how the RR2 on the PSP will be like..hmm.Guess i better stick to my Juiced Eliminator and Too Fast too Furious...hahaahaaa

I think the only console a RIdge Racer games isnt on is the N-gage and the DS Namcos poping these out like Dynasty warrior games and all of them suck.

If you post here you HAVE to go Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigde Raaaaaaaaaaaaacerrrrrrrr!! in some form or else. Its a man law now

next one to do the RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE thing will be forced to drive round that track 100 times to unlock the Pac Attack car or whatever the hell its called.

>>"ridge racer psp? .. but isnt that stealing the thunder from loco roco..?" Stealing the thunder from LocoRoco? Are you nuts? It's Ridge Racer! RIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDGGGGGGGEEEEEEE RRRRRRRRAAAAAACCCCCEEEEERRRRRRR!

ridge racer psp? .. but isnt that stealing the thunder from loco roco..? lol

Ridge Racer...wasn't that the series where the first version out for PS2 screwed up your memory card? Hmmm...Riiiidge Raaaacer! But will it have Real Time Driver Change? ;-) More seriously, I'm not entirely sure what the big deal is over RR *or* NFS, really...if you want a good racing game, I'd point to Gran Turismo. ;-)

Brrrrrriiiinng back grrrrrripppp! I loved R4.

I pray for infrastructure mode. Cmon Namco! You know people will buy it! One of the best PSP launch Titles! With added Infra support you wil lbring in more racers than ever!!!

I think the game will be more of the same, but that isn't a bad thing. Simply give people who loved the first one more of what they want, which is RIIIIIIIIIDGE RAAAAAAAACCERRRR. hehe, I couldn't resist.

Yes!!!!!!!!!! Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidge Racerrrrr!!!!! GIANT ENEMY CRAP , i mean CRAB!!! Holly cow!!! Sony is bribing big time Namco!!!

Ridge Racer is probably the best racing game ever, more better than some NFS game.

i had alot of fun with the first one, i hope they can duplicate that same experience with the next one. (honestly, how much could change?)

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE RAAAAAAAAAAAACCCEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR i wont buy it anyway...

It's Ridge Racer! I wonder just how the rear-view mirror feature will work...
