You should do your 20 page essay on Romeo and Juliet instead.
The physics in Ridge Racer arn't as good as they say either. after playing this game for a while, you may notice that you can drift around corners without having to worry about which way your $200,000 car is facing. Your car could be completely sideways, and you would still go down the middle of the road without hitting anything. But when you do somehow manage to hit something, it feels like you just bounced off some rubber. I'm not sure but i think when you slam into a wall at 200 mph, you would need to fix some dents that were just impaled into your car.
After playing this game, you would of wished that you spent your time on your essay and pass the 9th grade, rather than experience what happens when physics turn bad. Only get this if you are an extreme ridge racer fan, or can get your parents to do your homework.
