Hello User:Adam9007, I will be reviewing this article. For starters the it looks to be in very good shape so I'll pass it to GA when some of my doubts are cleared. Now let's do it:

• The lead is in good shape but I would split it per WP:Lead to two paragraphs starting from like "The game borrows most of its soundtrack from Ridge Racer 2. Ridge Racer Revolution..."
• In gameplay "although the drifting style is from Ridge Racer 2" what does that mean? I haven't played these racing games so I don't understand it (and with it casual readers).
• The development section uses one paragraph (which I don't think should be divided) but only uses three sources at the end. This feels like some sentences require citations but if you believe it is okay I don't mind.
• Finally, the reception section has one paragraph made of only one sentence. Maybe Hugh Sterbakov's comment could be moved to the first paragraph's last reference which mentions something like "Hugh Sterbakov was more critical..."

Those are all my doubts. Nice work Adam.Tintor2 (talk) 01:01, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

@Tintor2:

• I've split the lead as suggested.
  • Good.
• I've never played Ridge Racer 2, but the source says "the drift feeling is like Ridge Racer 2". Hopefully my rewording will make it easier to understand.
• I see
• Three sources? There's only one, and it's the only info I've been able to find about the game's development. The two pages support the entire paragraph.
  • I see.
• I'm not sure if I can put the criticism there without interrupting the flow. I can't have several positives, one negative, and several more positives; it needs to be organised somehow. I've split the sentence in two.
  • Good

Another thing; is the GameRankings source necessary? Adam9007 (talk) 01:38, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

No, GameRankings' site only has 4 reviews. Passing the review. Good work.Tintor2 (talk) 01:49, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
