  1. With solid and exciting gameplay, great graphics and sound, and a fully functional online mode, PSP gamers can't expect much more.
  2. It just fails to capture the urgency of the console version to a degree that I wish they'd left the cop angle out entirely. [Jan 2006, p.157]
  3. A game with ridiculous physics, hard-to-master controls and a repetitious event scheme.

    An awesome racer, tuned to the top. Some things annoy me sometimes, like the cops unbelievable skill of keeping up with you always and the thing that after about 80% of the races you just can't win any more. But for anyone who thinks that Ridge Racer's 360-degree-drifting-style is unreal, this is a definite buy. Expand
