Pros Uh...
Cons The entire existence of this game is a Con
Recommended it? No

To the average gamer, if you mention Ridge Racer, they'll think of PlayStation. After all, the series has had 5 incarnations on PlayStation hardware, and has been a focus launch game of both the PlayStation and PS2. However, the series has had one incarnation on the Nintendo 64 - the aptly titled... Read full review »

Pros ...Just look at the damn thing in action!
Cons Kinda easy.
Recommended it? Yes

Ridge Racer and PlayStation-branded hardware launches have become a traditional combination. 10 years ago when Sony entered a very different gaming business, Ridge Racer was there for the PlayStation, showing off the capabilities of the console. 5 years ago, when Sony unleashed the PS2, Ridge Racer...

Pros Loads of gameplay, fun combat, DQ ambience.
Cons Unlocking extra jobs is a chore. Lots of grinding.
Recommended it? Yes

When it was announced that the ninth installment in Square-Enix's venerable role-playing game series Dragon Quest would be a Nintendo DS exclusive, some of us were a little bummed out. Sure, Nintendo's popular handheld has made a fine home for re-releases of several of the earlier DQ entries - but... Read full review »

Fixing the old, adding the new- but oh! for better multiplayer options.

Pros Fixes a lot of the old tics of Dragon Quest.
Cons It's still DQ if that's not your thing. Multiplayer is of limited usefulness.
Recommended it? Yes

A long-running series like Dragon Quest (previously Dragon Warrior) carries a lot of tradition along with it. And if you like the series that's fine.
