Game description: The asphalt of Ridge City is once again thundering with high-speed action and palm-sweating competition. The checkered flag is flying and so are the cars. Amazingly detailed visuals, from the glowing of heated brake pads tot he smoldering of tires in a power-slide, will have you captivated as the battle for supremacy races on. It's all about speed, power, and control. With Ridge Racer V, your search for unforgiving racing intensity is over.
In Ridge Racer V the player is a racing driver taking part in events across Ridge City in a variety of fictional cars. The focus is on accessible and fun driving rather than simulating how a car behaves in the real world; as such the player is encouraged to powerslide around most corners by tapping the brake when entering the turn.
