    Ridge Racer PlayStation Portable

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 23, 2006 | 4 out of 4 found this Ridge Racer review helpful

    Pros: Fantastic graphics and sound.; nitro boosts add a slight bit of extra depth to the formula.; solid multiplayer features..

    Cons: If you don't like Ridge Racer, this one won't change your mind..

    Racing in Ridge Racer is fun. In fact, it's always been fun, so there haven't been many changes made here, which is good for fans of the series. However, the gameplay isn't going to convert anyone after a decade of minor changes. Collisions merely slow you down, and powerslides are still your primary means of moving around corners. The one key difference is that powersliding now fills up an onscreen nitro meter. When you fill one of your nitro stocks (you can store up to three boosts), you can unleash it at will for a modest speed boost. The opposing vehicles also will crack open a nitro stock from time to time, usually waiting until you're about to pass before coming at you. Beyond that, the driver artificial intelligence isn't terribly impressive. The 11 other cars in the race sort of follow their own lines and don't do much to block your pass attempts. This makes most of the game pretty easy, once you've mastered the art of the powerslide, but as you proceed through the world tour mode, the difficulty (and the speed) does ramp up.

    Control in the game is tight. You can play with either the analog disc or the D pad, and due to the sort of digital nature of Ridge Racer, you can get by just fine with the D pad. Beyond that, you've got your gas, brake, and nitro buttons. You can also hit another button to toggle between a first-person or third-person racing perspective.

    Free PSP!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 17, 2005

    Pros: It's completely free!

    Cons: None...

    Hey everyone,

    I found this website that is giving away free PSP’s. I know this site is legit. Also, they have been featured by NBC news. This is a sure bet if you want a PSP but don't feel like forking over the big bucks. Here's how to get one for free!

    1. Click on this url or copy and paste it into a browser:
    http:/
    /
    psps.freepay.com/
    ?r=22479313

    2. Complete one offer, many are free and some are very useful like one free month of RealRhapsody or unlimited DVD's rentals at Blockbuster for 10 bucks.

    3. Refer some friends to do the same.

    And you'll have your very own PSP. Here’s a link for proof if you’re still a disbeliever: http:/

    Thanks and Take Care.

    Awesome Game With A Few Bad Points

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 26, 2005

    Pros: FUN, FUN, FUN

    Cons: Later Stages IMPOSSIBLE to beat!

    One thing I didn't like about this game is the cars are not real manufactured cars such as Ferarri, Porsche etc. But regardless the cars are all well designed and the user can pick from several types of handling and excelleration. (The looser the handling the more drift and hence more nitrous)There are four tours the last of which called EX will not open until all the previous tours have been opened and cars unlocked. The EX tour is IMPOSSIBLE. I beat the first tour, but after that it's as if the cars are toying with you and stocked with unlimited nitrous. There is nothing to win after the first three tours so don't waste your time with the EX.
    It would be nice to be able to win $$$$ to stock your own cars how you choose like in other games. And the announcer is annoying as hell, thank God it can be turned off! But still the best game I've played on PSP yet!
