187 Ride or Die is a 2005 urban street racing vehicular combat video game developed and published by Ubisoft. It was released for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox in late August 2005 in North America and Europe. A port for the PlayStation Portable developed by Virtuos was released only in Europe in March 2006 under the title Street Riders.
Gameplay
187 Ride or Die is set in Los Angeles' infamous South Central region, where players must race and defeat opponents through a variety of stages to become the "top dog". The game also features a co-op mechanic, in which one player can be the driver and the second player rides along as the shooter, whether playing through the story or online. There are a variety of modes available to the player, such as system link and online multiplayer. Multiplayer on Xbox Live was available to players until 15 April 2010. 187 Ride or Die is now playable online again on the replacement Xbox Live servers called Insignia.[4][5]
