 Excellent Car Racing Game - Not a very easy oneApr 13, 2007
By T. Ali Al Raisi
I am reviewing this because of the many unfair negative reviews that I have read. The game graphics are superb. My TV is High Definition and running the games in 1080i (Maximum resolution of my TV), the game graphics are unbelievable.
The game play is also superb. The game is not easy, I would say that it is medium in difficulty. The cornerstone of the game is drifting the car and being able to control the car drifting in corners at very high speeds. You win races, get credit and new equipment and then buy more equipment and so on. It takes a few hours to really master drifting properly. AND then the fun begins.
Once you mastered the game and won the huge amounts of single player games on the games itself, you can then compete online. There are many wonderful tracks with immaculate scenery. The games allows you to play any of those, with any of the huge number of cars that you have, in normal or reverse directions. The possible iterations are endless.
Another impressive thing about the game is the handling of the cars. Each car feels different and handles differently. The upgrades to each of the cars changes the experience entirely.
To-Date, this is the best Game I have on the PS3, and I find myself playing for hours. Very Challenging in parts, and really fun.
It also support to players where you can race against a second player on the same machine.
The Game is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Reaches my expectationJan 26, 2011
By Z. Zhang
Pros
--stunning graphics considering the tech level of 06
--almost the same physics as those in PSP ones
--customization, great idea, although they could've offered more options
--increased difficulty from PSP ones, races are no longer total dominations
Cons
--There doesn't seem to be a special class or I am not far enough
--Too many manufacturers, the managing relationship points can be an awful headache
--unlocking requirements are a little weird
It's fun game, not a serious racing game. If you are stressed out by Gran Turismo and want to relax, or if you are not great at racing games but want some fun at high speed, go for it.

HD SPEEDNov 18, 2010
By Juan Diego
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2SSL1QJEA5CV5 In spite of the fact that it is not a recent game, it continues being one of the games with better graphs, faster, and mas addictive of the console playstation 3, I recommend it, his music performs the better thing, and if you have a tv in high definition, can be one of your better games

 Solid arcade racerOct 31, 2010
By chancheuk
Overall, good racer. Got this in 2010, 4 years after its original release. Graphics texturing and reflections are a little primitive by PS3 standards now, but for its time it is a great showcase of the famous Ridge Racer sensation of speed.
Later races are rather difficult and seem to rely almost as much on luck as on skill.

Best Ridge Racer game everJun 22, 2007
By James
I admit that I am a fan of racing games. To me, the things that matter most are a strong sense of speed, good handling of the vehicles, and graphics. I have played Ridge Racer games on the original Playstation, and I admit that they sucked...bad! However, I picked up RR7 on the launch day of the PS3, and I will say that I made the best choice! RR7 has realistic looking graphics, great music, fun controls (albeit with a moderate learning curve), and a good sense of speed. I highly recommend it for people looking for a racing game featuring modern, realistic vehicles. There are no weapons or anything, this is pure racing, but makes extensive use of the online Playstation Network, has free downloadable content, online rankings galore, and countless modes of online competitive racing, complete with online gambling (with points). I could go on and on about it, but the best thing to do is just buy a copy. You will not be disappointed if you enjoy pure racing games.
