RR6 isn't as deep as a lot of other arcade racers or console simulations, but to me, it's fun.  After all, that is why we play games, isn't it?  If you don't have a 360, the PS3 version of Ridge Racer 7 has the same courses but is considered to be a director's cut of sorts.  My personal pleasure from this game comes from all the cars themed after Namco arcade classics, like the Pac-Man, Galaga, and Galaxian cars.  Also, there is a Pac-Man minigame you can play while the game loads.

It seems like I've been playing a lot of games this winter.  Driving solo on the 360, playing Halo 3 online with my bro, and Wii Bowling with my parents.  What are you playing (or hope to play) this week?

Ridge Racer 6 isn't a terrible title. It feels like a launch title though, which has its quirks.
If you are into achievements, this would be a title to hold off on for a while, it can take it upwards of 100 hours to get them all.

Ridge Racer 7 (I haven't played 6) is pretty good. I still think Ridge Racer 4 on Playstation is better.
