RIDGE RACER UNBOUNDED XBOX 360:
Ridge Racer Unbounded is that rare gear head, that
cosmetically everything gets the right sparkle.
Ridge Racer Unbounded will frustrate the ghost out
of you; you will feel tethered to what the AI wants you to achieve which isn’t
to progress, which isn’t to enjoy the experience, which isn’t to win.
You will not find any generosity or mercy from Ridge
Racer Unbounded.
Starting with a low spec car you are tasked with
reducing the environment to rubble, and this is the only way to progress early
on.
You will struggle coming to grips with what an
unnatural bastard Ridge Racer Unbounded is.
You will also spend the first half facing a wall
whilst the stream of racers push past you, and from the dust and the rubble you
will emerge stoically trying to find any willingness to stick with it hurts
like a bitch mentality.
The main irk is not being able to progress to the
next circuit, it is almost as if the developers have chosen to rub your face on
the asphalt leaving you rubbed with oil, and other than to steal your way to
refined cars through a ranking system you have to fudge your way to 3rd
place or better to even progress.
And whilst I have stuck with this beast and its
untamed ego every victory has been earned with luck not skill and there is no
sense of balance or even fairness just a bitter sweet farewell of what might
have been.
Verdict Weekend Rental.
