RIDING SPIRIT

Developer : Spike

Release date : October 21, 2002

Synopsis :

Riding Spirits (also known as RS: Riding Spirits) is a 2002 motorcycle racing video game published by Spike in Japan and BAM! Entertainment in other countries for the PlayStation 2. A sequel, titled Riding Spirits II, was released on February 26, 2004 in Japan and was published by Capcom Eurosoft on May 21, 2004 in Europe.

Inspired by Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec, Riding Spirits offers over 100 motorcycles and a number of different riding options. Building a perfect racing machine and unlocking the new ones is handled through racing and earning money to buy better equipment, which can make a difference in the performance. The game’s career mode is called the Riding Spirits, and is split up into three classes that are progressively more difficult, for a total of 40 racing events. There is also a test run option that lets the player measure acceleration and overall top speed.

As a way to gain experience, there are Safety Riding tests that cover every aspect of motorcycle racing and 20 Circuit Riding situations that help scouting out specific, tricky maneuvers on certain tracks. The players are given a choice of a normal or widescreen display, as well as vertical or horizontal split screen for multiplayer. The structure of Riding Spirits is similar to other racing games, offering an Arcade mode with a selection of different categories and taking them around some of the game’s tracks. Controlling the rider and the bike is completely configurable (making the game lean more into a simulation ), where the player can assign buttons for manually leaning left and right, and sitting up or down on the bike to increase or decrease as needed
