Ridge Racer Unbounded
Ridge Racer Unbounded starts an entertaining change of direction for the franchise. The spin-off offers a great challenge and race type selection, though the title could benefit from more arcade handling to stay in tune with the property. The sound engine for Ridge Racer Unbounded is hypnotic with top techno tracks that pulsate in each race. The Ridge Racer franchise is known for a selection of great techno, and the latest continues to hold the claim.
Shindo Racing just has the nitro boost, with no short cuts, but just a clean race set-up. The Artificial Intelligence will still test you but it’s a much fairer race for those who deal more in sportsmanship than huge amounts of destruction to the environment. Time Attacks are set on levels with some interesting hurdles and designs. You’ll need to pick up the blue floating tokens for extra time and plot right through to the end. With this type of assault course in front of you the Time Attacks don’t get heavily repetitive, in fact you’ll be much more inclined to complete them.
Experience bar will hold a lot of items, cars and extra bits of track for you. You can gain experience in several ways - event placing, event goal bonus, frags, collateral damage, and target awards by smashing through certain target buildings. Most unlockables come free and easy. Just keep wrecking your way through anything and everything you can get your rubber on. The Unbounded bar doesn’t reduce your speed or affect your view point. The streets are designed relatively well and generally interesting too. Large variety of colourful points of interest also help you mind map the tracks better.
Create mode eases the hardship for a bit of customization. You’ll get to build your own tracks here in your own customized city. Name your city first, place some blocks on the grid and browse through the different pieces of track that you have accumulated. There’s a tutorial to guide you through some extras when you unlock highway blocks or elevated sections for bigger tracks. Advanced Editor section enables you to add jumps or other smaller obstacles for some sweet tweaks. Create Mode also ties in with the online multiplayer mode to take track challenges in other players' cities.
Ridge Racer Unbounded is impeccable with vibrant visuals, realistic sound and electronic soundtrack, creating an intense atmosphere that fits perfectly with the arcade theme of the Ridge Racer franchise. Music greatly adds to the immersive quality of the game. City editor and creator is a great addition to Ridge Racer Unbounded. Although the pieces are mainly recycled pieces from the single-player campaign, innovative tracks can be built with them.
Ridge Racer Unbounded
There are several modes to enjoy. All of these differ greatly from each other which makes a sizable change from the usual types of tournament or exhibition races you see in other games. Domination Race is the standard race set up for Unbounded: you’ll use your action bar quite a bit to frag and create shortcuts while you race. Drift Attack will need some mastering as you will need to use the drift button (B button) nailing the art of entering drifts at the right speed. Anything below or above this speed will cost you drift points.
