@Cyb3rSnail Ridge Racer is still my favorite racing game of all time. Personal favorite out of the whole series is definitely R4, followed up by Rage Racer and the PSP Ridge Racer games. I think the time when Ridge Racer 2 came out on the PSP was just a bad time for the series. The PSP had a great lineup of games out by then, so it was easy to overlook it. Especially when you might be choosing something new to play vs a game series you've already played. When you look back at the series on PS1, you see that problem with Ridge Racer Revolution, it was more of the same, but Rage Racer and R4 broke that mold.
I gotta say, I was a HUGE fan of the first RR on PSP, and I had no idea this one existed. And I tend to keep up with my favorite franchises. I'm gonna have to try this one now! Thanks for sharing!!!
@@NFSBeast2365 yes it is ! Scroll over to ps plus , and you have to scroll down to ps plus classics and it should be there . That or just search it , no problem
You must of really not focused on the PSP at launch as 'Ridge Racer' came out on launch of the PSP. As for the text and car textures looking blurry, please remember the screen was 4.3" and a resolution of 480x272. There wouldn't of been enough pixels to show it at the time. I got both Ridge Racer and Ridge Racer 2 for PSP on launch day for both. Hell I got a imported white PSP from Japan because they had a better screen. I too miss the series. It really ended on Ridge Racer 7
Ridge Racer on PSP is pure perfection. It's one of the reasons why I still turn my PSP on.
@@buckroger6456 I was surprised by how good it was haha

@@retro7943 not a problem, I was surprised myself on how good this game was. Thanks for stopping by !
Riiiiidgeee Racerrrrrrr

@@heilong79 such a good time killer
Let’s goooooo, CyberSnail is back with another vid 😤
YESSIR
I wish I could’ve played Ridge Racer on PSP 😢
Still can if you have a PS5 !
@@Cyb3rSnail is it on PS store? I'd love to buy it if thats the case. Thank you for the heads up!

I still play the psp version. The vita version looked good but was very short
@@rayndaba3166 never got around to the vita version cause I heard it was short but, this one is definitely very good
Ridge Racer 2 was not released in North America, which is part of the reason for the low sales figures.
Interesting , thanks for the info !

Oh, and the Ridge Racer DS and 3DS is vastly worse. Playing Ridge Racer 2 on PS Vita looks nice as well with super quick load times
Also this game has Online and you should try R7 (if you can emulate it for multiplayer)
Make more videos about console generations and PCs of that time please
@@jainmayank2003 I’ll see what I can do
Vita‘s RR was horrible
@@jsmith-h8m I saw how short it was , on top of all the “dlc” . Just decided nope I’m good
