A game that suffers too many problems to really have fun with.
User Rating: 5.8 | Ridge Racer DS DS
If you are a fan of racing games and own a DS you likely might want ridge racer. My warning is to stay away, at least until it takes a significant price drop. There is a bit on depth to the gameplay, but it all goes to waste as the controls are horrible. The touch screen control is interesting but very impracticle, they just don't feel right or work that well. You will likely end up just using the D-pad, but even that doesn't work because it turns to quickly and the in game control was designed for anologe control so it just becomes frusterating. The graphics look nice and there are some cool shine effects but nothing spectacular. The sound is fine as well. In the end this game just wasn't that fun because of bad control. The only reason I could see a reason to purcase this game would be for the multiplayer which isn't to bad, but otherwise I would recomend you buy Asphault Urban GT or Need for Speed Underground.
