This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Ridge Racer 6 for Xbox 360
Ridge Racer 6 for Xbox 360 is an arcade racer built around drifting and nitrous. Fictional sports cars follow asphalt circuits with long bends and straights for building speed. Cars need not grip like a simulation: controlled drifting carries you through corners and contributes to nitrous. Aim for a good exit so your next acceleration is not wasted correcting.
Ridge State Grand Prix earns fame and credits through racing. Manufacturer trials help unlock cars and parts. Body pieces and colours change appearance; engines, tyres, suspension and nitrous equipment alter performance. Visual changes are separate from performance choices. Give a favourite car a new look while seeking drift behaviour and acceleration that suit your driving.
Alongside the solo career, two players can race locally in split-screen, each with a PS3 controller. Pair Time Attack also supports two on one console. This describes the original offline PS3 game and standard content. Old network rankings, extra internet events and online races are not guaranteed current services. Standard and Platinum releases share drifting, nitrous and customisation.
Region and language
Our Xbox 360 games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Ridge Racer 6 for Xbox 360 includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of Ridge Racer 6
Namco Bandai developed Ridge Racer 6 for Xbox 360. It launched with the Japanese console in November 2006 and reached Europe in 2007, continuing the series’ connection with new PlayStation hardware. Ridge Racer began as an arcade racer in 1993. The seventh retained drifting and speed while expanding options to personalise cars and performance.
Official explanations separated body changes from technical modifications. Tyres and suspension affected drifting, nitrous equipment its charge and use. This encouraged trying familiar models differently as well as unlocking new cars. Ridge State linked parts to races and manufacturer trials. Progress therefore meant more than another cup: it expanded your collection’s possibilities.
The PS3 release offered local racing and Pair Time Attack alongside career. Its original site also described network competition and rankings at launch. These historical features do not guarantee current online operation. The described offline races need no network match. Ridge Racer 6 remains about asphalt, drift lines and nitrous, not Blur’s collectible attacks or Apocalypse’s changing disaster tracks.
