While Gran Turismo and eventually Forza was more acclaimed, was Ridge Racer a more beloved series?

Would you strongly consider a new Ridge Racer game? [assuming it had the feel and spirit of 1 or R4]

Gran Turismo has a street named after it. There were even brief talks to bring one of the original courses and build it to make it real. Kaz has a road in his honor in Spain. There's no bigger or beloved racer out there except for maybe Mario Kart.

As for RR, I think the uptempo arcade racer faded out. Need a draw, like Burnout's crashes or FH's openness.
This.

Mufukkaz LOVE Gran Turismo. Especially outside this country. shyt is :mindblown:

Ridge Racer is an arcade racerwho's main competitor was Daytona USA on Saturn which blew it away, that game is trash and the series is trash

Gran Turismo is a Driving Simulator, there's no comparison

Forza Motorsport isn't even that popular, Horizon series is by far more popular Forza game and it's not comparable to Gran Turismo or Ridge Racer

Drive Club is like a ridge racer type of game

Daytona USA is one of the greatest arcade game's ever, Ridge Race isn't

Daytona USA on saturn is vastly superior game to Ridge Racer on PS1 which was trash, you're a casual

Youre high. Ridge racer is critically acclaimed in both the arcade and home console space.

And the home version of daytona was a visible hot mess.

No it's not

They even brought Daytona USA back to Arcade with an HD version, Namco sucks at racing games, even Project Cars is fukking trash

Ridge Racer is trash, it ain't even fukking with Need of Speed, fukk outta here

There's a reason why Gran Turismo is the playstation car game and not Ridge Racer, that came was ass, in the arcade, it wasn't even fukking with Crusing USA get outta here

Thats why it was winning awards like crazy when it came out right? And what is bringing daytona back to the arcades post 2000 supposed to do? Arcades are dead everywhere but japan, theyre not getting that loving feeling back. And the reason gt did so well was because there was nothing like it before it came out and took the world by storm while the ridge series is an arcade racer.

What awards lmao

The physics and driving in the game is trash, the drifting in Daytona USA is better than a lot of games today, the model 2 arcade board was unmatched back then, it's up for debate

Daytona USA is a legendary arcade, they even have a new arcade of it, Ridge Racer is not on it's level never was, never will be
