Not bad for the PowerVR PCX1 card. A damn sight better graphically than
Ridge Racer & Ridge Racer Revolution on PS1, even though not upto the arcade's quality.

the article mentions that PowerVR PC Rave Racer was pushing 4 times the graphics workload of the first Playstation Ridge Racer (1994).
It's truly a crying shame Namco never released this, as well as Air Combat 22 which was also in development (but no prototype pics of that). I hate that Namco didn't have the balls to mention Rave Racer's cancelation. They said nothing. As if it was swept under the rug, never happened.
I know we got the Rave Racer tracks in PSP Ridge Racer, but it's not the same gameplay or visuals. It would be nice if they included the arcade version with the next Ridge Racer release.
You know how Tekken 5 came with Tekken, T2 and T3 in Arcade History? Like that.
