There has been a lot of hype about PGR3, but that isn’t the only racer that will be available at launch. So before you place that pre-order at least wait until Tokyo Game Show opens its doors next week where Namco’s Ridge Racer 6 will be shown to the public for the very first time. According to the latest issue of Famitsu Magazine we are not talking about some running tech demo, but the game will be on the show floor, fully playable. In case you have been living under a rock for the last 10 years, a next-gen Ridge Racer game can easily take pole position in the race for your money. About Ridge Racer 6 R6 will let players compete head to head in online races and download new content via Xbox Live. This is the first time that the Ridge Racer franchise offers online play. Utilizing a Worldwide Player Matching system, players can match up against drivers from around the world in head-to-head drift racing match ups. Players can also upload their personal records from the game’s Time Attack mode to see how they stack up against the rest of the world in a persistent Leader Board and download ghost data to virtually race against friends or test their skills against the best in the world. To complement the online Ridge Racer 6 community, new game content such as new cars will periodically be made available for download from the Xbox Live Marketplace. The game will be available for the Xbox 360 at launch in North America TGS Xbox 360 List (Title / Publisher, exhibit format) ![]() Add Comment Unregistered - Abe Froeman 09.07.2005 14:49 If this is anything like the PSP version, we are in for some good times... Please don't be like RR5 for PS2 x( Unregistered - Ridge Racer Fan 09.07.2005 14:56 I am huge fan of the Ridge Racer series. The first game is a legend, the second was ok. The third game Rage Racer was great, and RR4 was also ok. RR5 was disappointing, but the recent PSP Ridge Racer is maybe the best RR ever. RR6 can easily become the best racer on the 360 if Namco gets it right. skooby 09.07.2005 15:16 I hope they don't realease all of these driving games at once... For the love of pete!... Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.07.2005 15:24 why are M$ even trying in Japan they know they won't win, Sony and Nintendo will continue to be no.1 and no.2 in Japan. The xbox 360 brings nothing new to gaming, it's the same old games as last gen with a new lick of paint. The PS3 will at least have the better franchises like the PS2 had, but with better graphics and the Revolution iwll do what none of the others do and actually try and take the gameplay experience further. I seriousely see no reason to buy a 360, all this hub-bub about it is only hyp admit it. You take one look at white ipod - looking system and controller, and you suddenly think it's destined to be great? You think the hardware will be leaps and bound above PS3? yet PS3 has the better games and exclusive franchises, the best Xbox ever had was Halo, and it's sequel was a joke. How much of a shit computer must you have to think halo 2 is the best multiplayer FPS? Anyway whatever. Lucid360 09.07.2005 15:42 Hmmm what Nintendo and Sony have...still remains to be seen Anonymous. And about the comment about just the same old games with a new lick of paint... nobody is more guilty of that than your (i am guessing) beloved #2 Nintendo... What are we one Mario Party 69, Mario World 76, Mario Baseball, Donkey Kong Shower 4. Sony has their Final Fantasy 45, XenoSOMETHING 54, they are all guilty of it. As far as what will be better Sony has no definative plans for what you will buy yet as a PS3... you are compairing numbers and a few movies you saw at a show on a predev system PS3. I agree about Japan... I say forget Japan anways they like their own thing... the rest of the world gets into other things... Japan will always get off on their badly drawn cartoon characters who are about 14 years old with HUGE swords in a childish post-apocalypic setting that still has dragons, then you put in 50 minigames and some crap techno pop or 80s metal and itll be a hit. Either that or make yet another dancing game where people can look like idiots playing it. If you want to excercise I recommend a gym... not a video arcade... anyways.... Ridge Racer looks good too... we will see when they come out which really emerges as the best of the 1st generation driving game for XB360... I am sure they are working on TOCA and FORZA for it already.... those will be outstanding in the snd generation auto racing titles, if they stay as strong as they were on Xbox. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.07.2005 15:53 I got only two words, PS3 sux. Unregistered - Anonymity Rulez 09.07.2005 15:55 Poster number 4 is just clearly an anti-Microsoft fan boy. Xbox 360 brings nothing new to games, but PS3 and Revolution are going to transform the way we play? Get a life kiddo. I also don't recall Microsoft saying they want to be number 1, or 2, in Japan. They just want to expand the market and increase their presence - it's the best they can hope for, and they know it. Mr Fanboy over here has obvously never played Halo, or Forza, or any of the other franchises that XBox has got. Ever played Moto GP on the XBox kiddo? There's NOTHING that remotely comes close on the PS2. GTA exclusive on PS2? Yeah, for a while, until they improved it on XBox...any more for any more. Yes, I own both, and yes, I will own both in the future. Rocky2 09.07.2005 16:16 I agree with # 7 Unregistered - informant1 09.07.2005 16:31 I only have 1 question if you don't like xb360 so much then why are you on a 360 website writing about a system you hate .you look like a fool.go to a ps3 site and write about how great there cg clips are and as for japan microsoft get a clue . Focus on america you dominate here with your machine with on point launch games and the best on line service and perks and boom. You got sales Rocky2 09.07.2005 16:35 Wtf is up with Origenxbox360.com? the rabbit is gone when i just went to it Rocky2 09.07.2005 16:36 yup, the second rabbit is gone and some of the fruit, i think skooby 09.07.2005 16:52 I hope they don't realease all of these driving games at once... For the love of pete!... assjacket 09.07.2005 17:00 leave pete alone he's mine! JK Unregistered - saladtosser 09.07.2005 17:08 is it me or am i seeing things that one rabbit is gone and one pair of fruit is missing. are we pushing back the announcement? ZydecoStorm 09.07.2005 17:18 OMG! I need to double my 360 launch budget just to be able to buy all the console and all the titles available at launch that I've seen and desire so far. Drift racing in all the games offered so far has been fun, but open that up to multiplayer with all the players on Xbox Live WOW! Welcome Namco and the Ridge Racer franchise! Unregistered - xero coo1 09.07.2005 17:36 PS3 fan boys are the worst. Their even worse than the Nintendo fan boys and thats hard to beat. For example: quote anonymous coward "The xbox 360 brings nothing new to gaming"...all i can say is wow. What an ignorant thing to say. And the thing is, is that they can't even get along with each other. Go to www.ps3today.com and read their comments. It's rediculous. Unregistered - Mohahaha 09.07.2005 17:49 OFFCOURSE PS3 FREAKS YOU DUMB ASS!! LOL LOL Unregistered - kyokushinkai warrior 09.07.2005 17:54 hey, why don't you talk about xbox360 failure in ageia physics test? you still think that crap can be on par with our great PS3? you americans are good subjects for fun! besides i can't find it's news in xbox websites! afraid to face the truth?! Lucid360 09.07.2005 18:04 Ageia physics test?? Is that some sort of proprietary hardwar based test I have never heard of before?? Or just a way to sound smart about a system that is still MONTHS from having any kind of news other than hype. Unregistered - kamakazy 09.07.2005 18:06 the funny thing is that whe have no footage of the game and it will be able to play it, cool. Unregistered - LiquidG 09.07.2005 19:03 The PS3 fanboys are just mad that thier uber great PS3 doesn't look that much more powerfull anymore when compared to the newest stuff being shown for the "XBOX 1.5(according to sony)". Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.07.2005 19:05 Wow #18, your really a ps3 fanboy and a racist. You just came to the wrong forum and you got the nerve to post a lame comment on here. If you hate MS so much, like I heard people said on this forum, why are you here, jerk. Go back to your ps3 gay forum and leave us alone. Who care too much about Japan, MS can win sony over some other places. I have two words for you, ps3 suxs. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.07.2005 19:12 Yes, if You hate MS so much, stop using any software made by MS which I think your computer is running on now, big jerk. You said you hate eggs, but you like chicken. That's a bunch of hooey. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.07.2005 22:34 Lucid, why are you bashing dancing games? If you actually tried to play instead of just observing from afar you would realize that they are actually very fun and challenging. Unregistered - kamakazy 09.08.2005 00:12 preety much microsoft can buy the ps3 off the fucken market if bill didnt want a challenge. so sony fan boys get the hell out of here Jason Lee 09.08.2005 00:35 Man wtf is up with all these stupid ass kids, i swear to god their parents need to be put in jail for negelect because evidently they can't control them, or else they wouldn't be on the internet making jackass's out of themselves, and they might actually have an iq higher than that of a spoon full of mayonase. and kyokushinkai if your going to try and act like your japanese, least try to use an traditional name that actually exist instead of making crap up and insulting a culture... sony and there vaporware... if sony has such a large market share, MS should thank them if they're like the PS3 fanboy's who come on here saying "SONY VAPORWARE RULES! WE HAVE GREAT CGI! WHO NEED GAMES!, and pay em a few more bucks to keep them from coming to Live while there at it. Jason Lee 09.08.2005 00:39 #7 = Karate warrior my ass Jason Lee 09.08.2005 00:41 *** #18 eh, sry #7 lol Unregistered - Dragon 09.08.2005 02:05 Hmmm i would say I hate most of the Fanboys in the world but right now i don't care about that i wanna know more about RR6 i hope it will be great cause i loved other RR.. But im not sure i sure want xbox360 but i also want the other 2 consoles and i sertaitly don't have the money yet too get em all.. But i'm gonna work hard to get em all ;) hmmm I actually hope tho that Microsoft will get a good foot into japan because it will mean more games for us gamers. Lucid360 09.08.2005 03:00 I dont try them because of the comments I made obvious in the previous post... I think people look stoopid playing them and if you want to workout goto the gym, if you want to dance... well goto a dnace... But then again that pretty much is the same with almost all games... why play Ghost Recon, join the military... So I will just say that to me they don't look like fun, and are not my cup of tea... But how many version of DDR can yo u really make?? It is a personal preference... and to me it looks funny to walk thru the mall and see people i n the arcade jumping around... BUT I shall end it with... Hey, whatever gets your rocks off... Unregistered - PS3 Killa 09.08.2005 03:24 I'm sick and tired of hearing bullshit from this Gaystation fanfags! All they keep saying is the same old shit over and over again, say something new. You keep saying that the "Great PS3" is going to kill the 360! Get a life, the only thing that you Sony fanfags are seeing are trailer trash cg movies. Ya'll fuckin faggots need to realize that the Xbox 360 is better. Microsoft showed real shit, and you Sony fanfags are getting excited over cg clips, Let this hit you IT'S NOT REAL GAMEPLAY DUMBSHITS!!! For real, Sony is lying to you Fanfags, I mean come on, they claim that the PS3 is 2x as powerful than the Xbox 360 and this is the most funniest part, they claim that its 15x more powerful than the Nintendo Revolution! That should tell you something, first of all the Revolution has not even showed any gameplay or cg clips so how can Sony say that its "15x more powerful than the Revolution! You fanfags need to come back to earth and realize that the 360 is going to be way, way bigger than the Gaystation 3. Unregistered - kyokushinkai warrior 09.08.2005 04:43 i'm really sorry to disturb you, but i'm not talking about america or americans. not only in japan but also in other parts of the world (except europe) people even don't know what the heck xbox is! when you talk about videogames they suddenly say : "yes,playstation". playstation is definitive word for gaming not xbox! by the way if you think that ageia physics test is fake, why don't they decline it? and.. i'm using linux now, it's far better than windows as you know. Unregistered - Alcoholics Anonymous 09.08.2005 04:57 Fooken excellent comment #31, I could'nt of put it better myself. Go stick your vibrator shaped controller up yer ass !!! Ha Ha Ha Unregistered - kyokushinkai warrior 09.08.2005 05:09 take a look at ps3today.com. it's a ps3 forum but when a new article is posted, you crap-box fans are the first to comment and post your nonsense about the ps3 and bash it then ps3 fans answer, but no one says why you're there. why don't you get the hell out of our forums and stick to you damn shit-box? Red 09.08.2005 05:13 I'm assuming thats a physics test that Sony's console past. Did Sony create the test. Who is Ageia. Who fuckin cares. HAVOC. And if it was legit and MS failed a test that Sony pasted, thats not suprising seeing that the PS3 is currently the size of 400disc CD Changer. Red 09.08.2005 05:30 http://www.ageia.com/ Found out who they are, but take a look at the Partners list on the right.SONY Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.08.2005 07:11 #32, I don't mean to argue with you, it's OK. MS is a newer company, not like Sony and Nintendo, they were older companies who came out first with their consoles. Give it times, MS will soon catching up with both Sony & Nintendo. The world will know when the 360 comes out this year. Yeah, MS will soon catch up with Sony & Nintendo. I won't be surprize when MS will catch up and run away with victory. I'm not talking about Japan, MS can do well somewhere else. For me, I want MS, Sony & Nintendo to do well cuz I'm going to get all the 3 sysytems. BTW, here is a joke for you. I don't know if that Physics test is fake or not. Fanboys seemed to think that the PS3 is so powerful. It will probably can make you salad or cook you dinner, but can the PS3 take my Crush-Dummy-Test? If the PS3 can withstand a bullet without a dent, I will quit playing video game all at once and take Tenis lessons to amuse myself instead. So can the PS3 handle my crush dummy test? Yo Wassap 09.08.2005 16:15 hey why don't we all go on a ps3 site and piss them all off with comments downgrading the ps3! Unregistered - PS3 Killa 09.08.2005 23:16 I already did that. It was so funny! They think Japanese games are the best! hahahahahaha..... While they are playing gay ass Pokemon or Final Fantasy we Xbox 360 owners will be playing games like Gears of War and Halo 3!!! Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.10.2005 16:50 still no pics or video from this game. whats up with that... what is ms hiding... Jason Lee 09.11.2005 05:03 Not MS, it's Namco. Add Comment |
