Ridge Racer 7 - Image 1 


Just when you thought that the Sony PlayStation 3's Ridge Racer 7 couldn't get more 3D than it already is, Namco Bandai just made it even more so. The Japanese game maker ported the game from the PS3 to the arcade platform in just a week and improved it with some Xpol technology and a new kind of 3D eyewear.

Essentially, what other people may see on the arcade screen will be a blurred version of the game's graphics with two images seemingly overlaying on each other. With special glasses which look like shades when put on, however, testers say that the cars look ready to fly off the display.

Added depth and sharpness of the visuals at 1080p resolution moving at 60 frames a tick are doing all the magic here, says Namco Bandai. They'll be putting this cutting edge demonstration on the limelight when the CEATEC Japan show hits come early October. Let's hope people react positively so the idea can be marketed, making for a possible leap in graphics innovation.

Sweet! 3D glasses are back! All we need now is MST2K on Blu-Ray in 3D and my life will be complete.

I hope to see it here in the U.S. arcades. It might be fun to check out as long as I don't get a headache after playing it.
