Did OP die of shame? Or like posted his topic and run away? Still hasn't said/done anything.

He may be waiting for the 50th anniversary in ten years to post again.

The year is right but he had a typo on the title.

He's soiled a Ridge Racer anniversary, he's going to be thinking long and hard now about whether his life has any worth at all.

Of course, in 2027 Namco still won't have made another Ridge Racer game since 3D.

John Titor returns to find a very specific computer and a copy of Rage Racer.

Yeah the verticality stood out to me - you could hear your engine struggling up steep hills and had to keep your momentum up. I really liked the aesthetic too. Definitely my favourite of the series.
Why is Deckard banned? Shit he was an old timer like me. Hope not perma

I was 11 years late to the party having only got this game 19 years ago, but it felt pretty new at the time. I loved it back then, it got genuinely difficult in the later stages and all the more satisfying when you won.
Tried playing it a couple of years ago though and Christ. The ridiculously terrible collision model made it really hard to play.

Totally ignoring the spacetime continuum for a second, is there any reason why this game didn't get a re-release back when sony were actually releasing PS1 games? My only experience with the game was an old demo, which I liked but never got round to getting the full game.
Early Rage Racer screens before it had it's proper title from EDGE, Next Generation.
Edit: It seems NG reviewed twice, and talked about the review in their letters.
Rave Racer, the 3rd arcade title in the Ridge Racer series, is an entirely different game

(notice the second preview finally has the proper title)

I spent a lot of time trying to make a Mugen logo in the hood livery -_-
Game is probably still my favorite and most played 'time trial' racer .... used to spend ages trying to shave just an extra second off my records.
Ridge Racer Type 4 is still classic for me too but Rage Racer is actually my favorite in the series.

I only remember the track from the vid in the OP, but Rage Racer was probably my favourite 'realistic' (so not like CTR or Outrun) racing game.
Did this ever make it to PSN?

I love how the intro to Rage Racer had the names of all the music tracks scroll down, as if they were some form of great accomplishment.
Little did Namco know at the time that it was the wackest soundtrack of the whole RR series.

Apparently, five years after we got the ZX Spectrum, we got Rage Racer.

Rage racer was my fave racer on the playstation along with V-Rally.
Even the mirrored tracks didnt bother me that much.

Waves from the future...HI GUYS!!!!!
Seriously though yeah I legit fucked this up. I honestly for some strange reason didn't realize that 2017-1997 is only 20. Legit thought it was 30 years ago and didn't even double check, so I just rushed and posted it right after waking up LOL.
My bad guys, here's the REAL banner!!!

Type 4 will forever be my favourite, but I love Rage too as something of a precursor to 4 and a more moody setting than the original, RRR or Rave. Hell of a soundtrack too.
Disgrace that 4 is the only one on the PS Store too.
