Ridge Racer DLC, some free, some priced, will extend the game

Traditionally, you played Ridge Racer for the first week of your new PlayStation's life, got it out to show friends and then left it for the odd nostalgia play. Not with the Vita version.- this baby will run and run thanks to the drip-feed DLC approach.

The list of content for Japan is as follows: (c/o Andriasang), the music packs are free (I'd be pissed off if I was charged for old music) with cars and tracks coming later and priced either individually or as an all-in-one offer (1,000 yen is about £8..50, $13)
