Ridge Racer - Real PSX Longplay - Original Hardware (Namco, 1995)

This is the first game I ever played on the original Playstation, and the first real 3d game I ever extensively played at home. I can't stress how important it has been to draw me further into the medium making me invested in running pretty races in videogames.
This game is not a good arcade port. It is generally on par with Daytona Saturn port. However, coming from NES as I was then, this was a STUNNING experience to be made back in the mid nineties.
As far as the gameplay go, I did what we used to call a perfect run, winning all the races without editing the video and getting to the game credits roll. There is an extra mode after that, the backwards - reverse run. However, it frankly sucks from a gameplay perspective and it is what it is: an extra.
As usual, this one (as all my playthroughs) use NO savestates. In my opinion, playing this way yields a footage more attuned to game and level design than save-state powered runs. When i feel like editing videos, i'll do a review, not a playthrough.
Original PS1 disc recorded on PAL PS1 Fat, with Retrotink2x and Avermedia Live Mini. Played on CRT with DUALSHOCK 1 controller, analogue mode turned off (yes, i played with the DPAD).

Mi sento terribilmente chiamato in causa

Io non so guidare e non so una ceppa di macchine, ed è grossa se distinguo una ruota da una triglia. Ma quando corro, corro per la Scuderia.
