i heard small details from another jgaffer - i think we're waiting for confirmation/something more concrete.
i think this one is the one where the big "?" mark hung - global time trials world wide, upload your times. The assumption is up to 14 players online is world wide too but not mentioned, and is a little weird they mention the global net function for this. I'm sure just something lost in translation.

People might like to hope otherwise, but I've a bad feeling this will be a very incremental update over 6. I would say Namco is basically still looking to get their investment back on that game, and not putting too much more into it. Just a hunch, I don't want to prejudge it, but I'll air my concern before we see and hear more

So far the game sounds exactly like Ridge Racer 6.
The machine customization is new but everything else is sounding the same. 44 tracks but you have to take into account that'll include reversed and mirrored tracks so it's more like 11(and when you figure that Namco still takes pre-existing tracks and just moves pathways around it's down to what? 4? yeesh)
160 races in single player mode sounds a lot like the near 200 races in RR6's World Xplorer mode. Also both games have 14 players online.
The customization is interesting but imo unnecessary for an arcade racer and looking at the list of features I'm starting to think it was just cheaply tacked on. OH! and that's ignoring the idea that maybe "car parts" and "customization" is simply the color edit mode from RR6(you had to unlock the "parts" through the Xplorer afterall).
I figured Namco would want to recoup their losses after the bob-omb that RR6 was but damn..it's starting to really sound(and look apparently) like the exact same game.
I'm more than a little disappointed personally...
EDITed for OT: Why was Kittonwy banned?
EDIT x2: Noticed SSX's post and I'm glad the customization is not like I feared. Still ain't putting much faith in this though!

Why do I even bother? It's Namco...my most hated developer of all time.
