To build up to the release of both Ridge Racer 3DS and Ridge Racer Unbound, Namco Bandai has announced that Ridge Racer Type 4, the fourth iteration of the PSOne Ridge Racer series, is due for release on PSN this March.
The 99 release marked the last entry of the series for Sony's PlayStation, but was considered by many to to be the finest edition of the franchise, offering upgradable cars (an an unlockable Pac-Man care with its own theme song), a lengthy career mode split between different race teams, and a fantastic soundtrack that replaced the hardcore techno trimmings of before with a cracking dance/jazz fusion soundtrack.
It mightn't look like much today, but the title had some of the best selection of race tracks in arcade racing history, so it's worth a look.
