The only time that any of the visuals start to look a little bit odd is when you get a little too close to the cars, which tends to happen at the start of each races, other than that youвЂ™ll be treated to some fantastic looking visuals throughout the rest of the game. Watching the sun set over Shatter Bay as youвЂ™re racing at over 100 MPH, sliding around corners and fragging your enemies is one of the most graphically pleasing things thatвЂ™s been seen this year. The lighting effects alone will get people coming back for more. GRAPHICS: Ridge Racer Unbounded is one of the best looking racers IвЂ™ve ever had the joy of playing. The story isnвЂ™t the most spectacular one youвЂ™ll experience this year, but for a racing game you could do much worse. Told through the use of motion comics with a couple of CG aspects thrown in for good measure. The story is fairly well told when it all comes down to it. In this respect, Ridge Racer Unbounded is very similar to MotorStorm Apocalypse, tasking the player to rise up with the ranks of an underground racing team, but thankfully, thatвЂ™s where the similarities end and Ridge Racer soon ends up being its own game all together. In order to increase your rank youвЂ™ll have to perform certain goals within each races, usually these goals are to finish in a certain position or better, but as there are other types of races that youвЂ™ll be taking part in throughout your career within the game, there will be other goals for you to focus your attention on. Your task for the majority of the game is to increase your position within the group by winning races against the other racers. STORY: When the story starts youвЂ™re a new recruit to a group of underground street racers known as вЂњThe UnboundedвЂќ. Is the change something thatвЂ™s welcome though? Or should Namco go back to the tried and true formula as soon as possible?

The series has stuck to that same recipe over all these years and people have enjoyed what theyвЂ™ve been given, but itвЂ™s about time things changed Ridge Racer Unbounded is the answer to that call for a change.Дeveloped by Bugbear Entertainment, the developers best known for the Flatout series, and focussing around the idea of street racing and earning respect on the streets through your skills as a driver, this is about as far from the other Ridge Racer game as is possible. It was part of the soundtrack of my childhood, as IвЂ™m sure it was for many other people. The Ridge Racer series of games have some die-hard fans, I couldnвЂ™t go into an arcade in my youth and not be greeted with the sound of вЂњRIIIIDGE RACER!!вЂќ.
