Ridge Racer Unlockable Cars, Movies and Pictures (PSP)

Ridge Racer is an arcade-style racing game developed by Namco for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) handheld console. Originally published as Ridge Racers, a launch title for Sony's PSP in Japan on December 12, 2004, the name was changed to the singular Ridge Racer for its March 22, 2005 United States release and the September 1, 2005 release in European markets. Ridge Racers (PSP) is a value-priced "Greatest Hits" edition of the game released exclusively for the Japanese market on November 17, 2005. A platinum version of Ridge Racer was released in European markets in June 2006

As an entry in Namco's long running Ridge Racer game franchise, Ridge Racer for the PSP shares a number of gameplay elements, cars and tracks with its predecessors. The game features a total of 24 courses (12 unique courses and the same 12 courses reversed) all taken from previous PlayStation games or the arcade-only title Rave Racer and 54 unlockable (fictional) cars. As you win races, you unlock tracks and faster cars.
