This game has really good graghics and fun gameplay. It is not a simulator! This game is an arcade style racing game with awsome graphics. The game has a very fast learning curve and is incredibly forgiving while driving. Think Pole Position with 360 HD graphics. The selection of cars is decent also. A very fun game to play alone or on line.
simplistic cars but nice looking levels

There is much to this game that most people will never understand, all I can tell people is go on Global Time Attack, watch some of the best racers in the world, see how fast they go, once you learn the tracks and understand the nitrous charges this game will have you hooked for life... I must say this is the most fun videogame I have ever played...
And I met my wife playing it... :-)

I actually had quite a lot of fun playing Ridge Racer 6. Just zooming around the tracks without a care in the world while some guy gave me words of amazement at my driving skills or criticizing me if I had a bad run. Letting nitros loose was a lot of fun while swerving around corners. There's a ton of stuff to unlock and it's all worthwhile. This game is easily recommendable for those who want a little relaxation after playing a lot of hardcore games. Just to zip around the tracks and not care if I did good or not so I could just relax.
Fun game

Ridge racer is about drifting. Once you can master the drifting, it's a lot fun. The best part is that it is relatively easy to master drifting. The only thing that I don't like is that I can't race with my friend without going online.
same ald game

BORING! You do the same thing everytime; gas, drift; gas, drift. you will also be so tired of "Nitrous ready" from the stupid announcer. If you want the achivements, you will have to win more than 200+ races to complete the game at three minutes each race. With doing the same thing every race, it just gets flat out boring. Graphics are good, but thats about it. PGR3 is a much better bet.
Played it once it sucks

This game is terrible. True it is sort of new and inventive. But gameplay is terrible, graphics are equiv. to regular Xbox. I have purchased this game in package just to get the Xbox 360. Also stay away from ridge racer (terrible driving game, the worst i have ever played) driving physics are non existent and gameplay is designed for five year olds. Perfect Dark Zero is also terrible. All of these games have received great reviews. I dont know how? All have graphics dated back to the original Xbox!!!! Hope this helps!
Fun arcade racer with totally broken online play

I love Ridge Racer. I've played through every entry in the series (including the N64 and DS games). I own a neGcon. I paid more for the R4 soundtrack than I did for the game. In other words, I know of whence I speak when I say that if you've ever enjoyed a Ridge Racer before, you will be all over this one. It plays like all of the others, and it remains just as fun with a D-pad as with a $150 force-feedback wheel. The most fundamental difference is the inclusion of the nitrous boost from RR PSP; for us purists, though, there is an achievement that can only be unlocked by winning all of the single races without nitrous. (Good luck, by the way. Wow!)
That's single player though. Online plays the same, but unfortunately it is let down by one huge, devastating loophole. The first time you enter an online battle, you will probably find that for each race that has 8 people in it, 3 of them will just sit on the starting line. They'll stay there for the entire race. Then after the fastest finisher crosses the line, they'll inch across - and they'll be awarded second, third, and fourth place. I cannot put into words how disgusting and frustrating this is. Why has this not been patched since the game's release OVER A YEAR AGO? For now, your best bet is to create your own races, and if anyone makes a habit of squatting on the start/finish line, you can boot them out of the lobby. Otherwise, online will be an exercise in futility, best done only to unlock the cars you get for participating in races.
