I'm fairly picky with arcade games, they need to have really tight controls, a nice challenge and a lot of style to really get me. I've tried Ridge Racer V on PCSX2 for the very first time (never managed to bump into it when I had my PS2 back then) and fell in love. The handling is weird at first but once you understand it, it gets addictive, you really have to be precise, one or two bad mistakes and you must as well reset the stage with a savestate. Shame that there are only seven courses (including the oval), you can't change your car after you select it, and the music is ass. Its basically a PS2 tech demo, being rushed as a launch title back in the day. But man, the gameplay is TIGHT, makes the PS2 burnout games seem floaty and unresponsive in comparison. I've heard that RR type 4 was the best, especially the style, presentation and music. I've tried but the handling is nowhere near as good as RRV, and besides, its locked at 30fps (I don't mind the PS1 graphics at all, in fact it looks pretty good to me). They I thought about trying RR7 on RPCS3, but I can't emulate it properly (I've got a humble ryzen 5 5600), the little that I've played of it, I noticed the gameplay isn't as tight as RRV because I'm sure there is some form of auto-pilot going on, smoothing out your drifts and avoiding contact with the wall at high speeds (its hard to explain but if you played it you know what I'm talking about). And then the series died for no reason. Imagine a RR with the style and music of Type 4, the tight gameplay of V and the stage variety and graphics of 7. It would be the perfect arcade game.
