Ridge Racer Revolution ROM Description
In the 90s, Ridge Racer sped onto the scene and into gamers’ hearts with its slick drifting and smooth 3D visuals. Ridge Racer Revolution hit a year later in 1995, serving up more of the racing action fans loved. While essentially an incremental update, Revolution is still a nostalgic blast for PlayStation racing fans.
Like the original, Ridge Racer Revolution keeps things blissfully simple – just choose a car, track, and go. This is arcade racing distilled to its purest form. Learning the best drift lines around corners takes practice, but feels wonderful when nailed. The handling is intuitive, making weaving through traffic at insane speeds a breeze. Smacking into other cars barely slows you down – this is all about speed and style.
With three tracks, Revolution offers mild improvements over the original’s lone course. Sections open up as you advance, adding new areas and upping the challenge. However, revolution is a strong word – the new tracks feel more like remixes rather than revelations. And with no multiplayer or vehicle customization, solo play still gets repetitive quickly. Clearly this was more of a stopgap before the real sequels.
Still, Ridge Racer Revolution captures that signature series magic. The catchy techno tunes will embed themselves in your brain as you drift to victory. Unlocking hidden cars like the lightning-fast 13th Racing is a treat for series fans too. And running the courses in mirror mode breathes fresh life into the experience.
While slim on major additions, Ridge Racer Revolution is a worthy update for fans who just can’t get enough drifting action. PlayStation collectors should grab the ISO from ROMsdl.NET and take this classic for a spin down memory lane. The flawless sense of speed, dazzling powerslides, and arcade thrills still hold up wonderfully.
Before Gran Turismo, Forza and Need for Speed ruled the racing scene, there was Ridge Racer. While certainly dated today, Revolution is a time capsule back to an era when drifting to techno beats was a revelation. Strap in and relive a seminal piece of PlayStation history with this iconic racer.
