R4 Ridge Racer Type 4 was the fourth game in the Ridge Racer series on the original Playstation. It was the sixth iteration if you include arcade versions. The most notable item about this game is the fact that the game was bundled with Namco’s Jogcon Controller. It is a controller with a radial dial right under the Select and Start buttons, I would think that this was used for throttle, but I am kind of clueless. Here is a picture of the controller.
