I Know What The Wriststrap Is For With The Psp

[lubidog]

Yep, I'll tell you what it's for-it's to protect my PSP when I throw the flippin' thing at the wall as I struggle to beat Angelus on Ridge Racer!!!!!

No matter how fast or slow I was, the last lap we were always together. Then, as I fired up my turbo on every last bend, he would just edge past me!!!!

Anyone else smell a rat? A little programming device going on to make a race of it?

All day it's taken me.

Still, I do love it though!




(This makes no sense to me either, move along please!)

i fear eventually getting to this stage on ridge racer

i completed the basic tours this morning and found that the first of the pro tours to be kinda punishing!

 

[junker]

haven't tried ridge racers yet! i hope it's as fun as everyone says.

It suddenly gets hard. The basic-you sail through, then the pro is okay...but when you get to rounds 17 or 18 woosh!

But even though I was cursing the duals, I was loving it too! It's a top release, that's getting better. I reckon I'll finish it one day which says everything

yeah it suddenly gets hard at the duels but then when you move onto the last batch of races, Expert or whatever, it gets easier again. The duels are about the only hard part of the game really.

yes Angelus is a bitch but he is beatable... lots of drifting build up boosts and pickign the right times to use them are the key. I always tried to have two left by the last 1/4 of the last lap and finally managed to whup him.

Exactly, a couple of nitros at the end! Felt so sweet to finally beat him, best gaming moment for ages....

Better than wipeout

The game is super easy. Way too easy to be any fun. I only had trouble versus the rocket car on one track apart from that the game was way too easy.

Two words.

Rubberband AI.

If he gets too far ahead of you during the first two laps, do NOT use nitrous. Just keep driving normally and he'll slow down to let you pass. All you have to do is use up your three nitrous on the last bit of the last lap, and block him off in the mirror. It's actually very, very easy.

does ridge racers have online capability? It says it supports up to 8 players but is that just psp to psp or is it online like Twisted Metal is?
