Most racers from the PSX era haven't aged all that well, but this game is more genius than most of today's offerings. Amazing music, track design, and controls, ESPECIALLY when using the NeGcon! I swear, that is the absolute best for racing games, and I hope Namco releases it again someday for modern systems.
I was born in 1995 and my brother in 1979. I remember being a kid and playing r4 with him, i would always pick the grey/blue car because of the intro! Jesus, the nostalgy. Thank you so much for uploading memories from my childhood
The soundtrack is amazing but the level of aesthetic detail in the menu screens / interstitial screens were also incredible. The only game that compares is Wipeout 2097.
Never played this game before, just the first Ridge Racer on an arcade cabinet. Found some of these songs on a "relaxing PS1 music" playlist. Holy shit this soundtrack is fucking amazing.
I remember my mom playing this game with me, i was like 4 years old maybe 5 and she completed the game with all the cars, sadly the disc didnt load the game anymore now im 21, last time i saw my mom playing a game was gran turismo 6 with me hahaha
I have been listening this soundtrack for more than 25 years. Masterpiece! Melbourne today just announced the sixth snap lockdown for 7 days. I would like to go out for a ride after it finishes.
I'm sad people don't know this amazing soundtrack. Not just for racing, but it is excellent electronic lounge music. Sounds so modern too!

IT'S RIDGE RACER!
Namcos sound team was killing it during this time period. Tekken 4 is also one of them legendary Namco OST

BRUH THIS OST IS STUPIDLY GOOD WTF. Never played the game but this shit is ridiculous
I spent all my teenage days on this game! OST was written by Hiroshi Okubo, which I met and I'm grateful for this! Thank you Namco!! <3

Gaming has no soul now. I miss these times and these soundtracks. There's some amazing music on the PlayStation and Sega Saturn.
