F-Zero GX Review

[Skyrex93]

this game makes you insane in totaly awesome high speed breackneck totaky high way!!!!!! favorite racing game of all time for me :D

[Byahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

Wish he gave more then a simple "pretty good" for the music... best music i ever heard in a game... but as for the game itself... best racing game i ever played :D

[MrWolf120]

Once you've played this, Mario Kart is just too slow. My Mario Kart Wii has been collecting dust ever since I got GX.

[toba122]

The music in this game's so awesome

[Lannnyto]

Mario Kart on Steroids

[SLRMC93]

I disagree to what he said on the graphics, it brought out some of the best graphics we have ever seen on the Gamecube, it showed the consoles true potential in terms of visuals, they ships looked amazing, and the tracks were incredibly detailed, in fact have you noticed this about gamespot, how they always look at the graphics the most? Don't believe me? Watch gamespot's review on crazy taxi for the Gamecube.

[zeenasi]

Dude the difficulty on this game is freakin hard. I beat all the story missions on hard, now I have to do very hard. I got this game 5 days ago. I used to have it when I was 10, but something happened to it.

[realw0rld]

I got the AX cup yesterday within 3 weeks of owning the game :D

[Broyale26]

@realw0rld

Good ass job!

I still need to work on the story mode.

[happywhale4]

just make another one already.  How can you not follow up the best and most challenging racing game ever?

[eletricmayham]

those graphics are as good or better then the 36o im probbaly exaggarting but the graphics are superb also leon rules allllllllllllllllll

[NortherSaviour]

Fuck Story Mode 7!!!

That being said this is my favourite game ever made.

[TheRealBitterbub]

@NortherSaviour Mind saying what the Seventh chapter of the story was? I haven't played the game in forever.

PS This has to be one of the best racing games ever made. A Wii one would be so awesome, imagine the chaos of 30 online racers on these tracks.

[NortherSaviour]

@TheRealBitterbub It's only the most frustratingly difficult mission in the game.

Grand Prix, 5 laps, Black Shadow. Everyone wants to kill you.

[TheRealBitterbub]

@NortherSaviour Lol, It was tough certainly, but I think I finished that one faster than any other mission.

[Dynamiteartboy91]

6:08 The beat sorta reminds me of "Assassin" by Muse. Pretty sick if you ask me.

[Mrbigpiggie]

I beat the story mode before. But it took me about 3 months to beat it

[eletricmayham]

@Mrbigpiggie I KNOW IT TOOK ME 900 TIMES AND IAM STUCK ON THE MISSION AGAINST MICHAEL CHAIN

[DaLooseGoose11]

@eletricmayham JESUS crist! jus check a walkthrough dude! =D use dat fukin X button to do a side atack and beat da shit out of the other ppl. actualy, use da Z buton to do the spining atack against the guys, but to beat Michael LAME jus use dat side atack :D

[KjeldvanKeulen]

@Mrbigpiggie i beated the whole game in like 4 weeks and didn't played every day :P

[565WZ]

I remember playing the final chapter with my cousin when I was 9. It was shit hard. But eventually after around 100 tries I finally beat it. You wouldn't believe how good it felt beating it. =D Games nowadays are too easy.

[BodybuildingSteve]

too hard lol

[birdo56]

This has definitely a collaboration between Nintendo and Sega otherwise this game wouldn't be so hardcore

[coollein]

In the end you can see some replay angles. Nothing special really, but it's exactly the same angles as in Colin McRae 2.0. =D

[woogiepooh1995]

f-zero has always been hard no one captain falcon gets the falcon punch

[irontoad30]

Motion sickness has never been so much fun!!

[UltraNerdsOfTheWorld]

GIMME SEQUEEEEEEEEEEEL

[eletaone]

F-zero was fucking axe,, adn yeh dude,, my god its hard,, but kick ass

[ThatH4CK3R]

the game's good BUT MAN IS IT HARD

[sniper6081]

Is it just me or is Chapter 1 Very Hard harder than any of the other chapters on any difficulty?

[UseThisWeb]

Is this game any good? Cause it's at my GameStop for 17.99. I wanna know if it's worth it...

[sniper6081]

If you like racing games that'll kick your ass then yes, you'll like it.

[landovers]

Totally worth it... if you don't mind a bit of challenge, it's one of the best racing games ever!

[woogiepooh1995]

mario kart is #1 racing game but this can take sport number 2

[Diggler277]

@woogiepooh1995 Mario Kart double dash is brilliant, but F Zero GX is for hardcore racing fans, so F Zero is #1

[brainjuice654]

@Diggler277 i'm not a hardcore racing gamer,

but f-zero gx kicks ass

[mrdumbname]

With how old this game is, and that a Gamecube gos for fifty bucks at Gamestop, that's pretty frikin' good

[JediRobotKira]

@UseThisWeb i got this at my gamestop for $5 and i was a big fan of F-Zero before and when i found that out i was like "IM GETTING THIS" i mean i always wanted it but when i found out it was $5, it was the best deal i ever got and its still one of my favorite games of like all time

[thomatude]

i almost unlocked all of the AX characters

[kayayildiz]

one of the hardest game ive ever pkayed, but it was fun though

[happywhale2]

I love how hard this game is

[astrojunkey]

It's not 20, it's 26 tracks

[falconpunch73]

WHERE THE HECK IS F-ZERO Wii?

[trogdor147]

I played F zero for a long time it was hard but i played for so long that now its not very hard

[ssbmshadow]

We`ll probably won`t be seeing this kinds of games anymore... just like melee, the king of fighters, street fighters,etc. no more advanced gaming just plain n simple *sigh* miss those glorious times.....

[LordWhorfinX]

i remember this game got a C+ rating due to the insane difficulty. ... uhm, don't we WANT a challenge?! These new younger gamers are kinda weened on wimpy games. I grew up with the NES...try Ghosts'n'Goblins or the original Castlevania or Blaster Master or Bionic Commando or the Ninja Gaiden series....lol... THOSE are tough...

[mjacki]

I totally agree with u mate! people are panzys!! Hell! I just beat the final chapter on story mode in this game TODAY!!!! I've had that game for...God, since it first came out! That just goes to show the developers knew how to deliever this game!

[blueprophet9]

@LordWhorfinX

You forgot NES TMNT

[vfmc77]

I cant believe I'm the first one to say it here but I really want to see the Falcon Punch inside an F-Zero game.

[dragonking17]

did anyone have a problem with the game erasing memory cards when you tried to use the costume car maker thing?

Everytime i tried to make a car my memory card got deleted.

[5onicFighter]

I lost count of how many controllers I broke trying to beat the story mode....

[MS57KB]

how the heck did you brake a controller anyway

[5onicFighter]

Hmmm... I threw around 2 at the wall and 1 at the TV. Both of em just got smashed.

[OmegaSpartan7777]

@5onicFighter over 9000?

[mardfet]

@5onicFighter OVER 9000!!!!

[9picklepowers]

@5onicFighter i went throught 37.

I still owe my brother another 200 bucks worth of gamecube controllers. :<

[MrTURBOJOHN]

@5onicFighter I bet you didn't even broke one controller

[PokeCenter]

I think the world's ready for a new F-Zero game for the Wii!

[minimonXD]

I agree

[XBOX91]

@PokeCenter THATS WAT THE WORLD THINKS! PEOPLE WOULDNT HANDLE THE POWER N SPEED!!!

[mardfet]

@PokeCenter oh yeah. and a new donkey kong game, and a new starfox game. come on nintendo!

[eletricmayham]

@PokeCenter you got that right same with me to i miss it it rules

[Simon0]

game has 26 tracks not 20!

[Lewogman]

I need a Wii online version of f-zero lol I'm gonna kick some serious butt muhahaha ... In f-zero GX I got 1 thing left to do and it's the last story chapter at the hardest difficulty ... this is KIND OF HARD... lol

[super64785]

that was a good game but after a while of playing it i just needed new track designs as GX's do get easy after a while, which is why i got the one for the N64.

[happywhale2]

awesome i only have 3 chapters on vh left

[insomniac011101]

i hate that guy

[YoungHenry101]

should i buy this game?

[JohnnyBoy232]

Hell Yes!!

[happywhale2]

i can only beat story on normal

[s3cnd2non3]

Great Game but very hard..I cant beat the story mode lol

[EvilHeadBoy]

the wii version would need some 30 players online, and some better flight physics. I'd want wii controls, but because of the sheer speed of the game, I don't know if it would work out, either way i still hope they include it. I'd use a controller for this game and keep my wii wheel for mario kart. I heard that capcom is making the wii version of fzero, and I know they will make it amazing, I just hope they keep it hard, because i love it hard ^_^

[YoshiMario69]

I NEED a wii version... NOW

[eventzz]

we all do. I also wish they bring GX with the new play control.

[SuperYoshiTTD]

I don't. Playing a game this fast with the poor control of a Wiimote on its side is less than ideal. I'd rather see a brand new F-Zero game with DLC, more racers, more tracks, and Wi-Fi modes that uses the Wiimote/Nunchuck combo, so you can still control easily with a joystick and execute attacks maybe by waggling or something to that effect.

[CCowell125]

I totally agree. A Wii Remote and Nunchuk combo or Gamecube controller should be used to control a Wii F-Zero. The Wii Remote on it's side would kill your waists, let alone not control properly. =/

[redrubber44]

i agree. the wii remote on its side would be a horrible way to control such a fast game with so many twists and turns. remote + nunchuk would be good though

[mrflame2000]

a good game but i agree it is hard

[5onicFighter]

This game has the best graphics out of any gamecube game.

[roflzi]

shit if they just add an online mode, an option to add 26-28 cpu in multi and improve the graphics i buy it

[xgamer3000]

Gamecube doesn't have online! And he said you're not going to notice the rough grafix because your going so fast. If you wait for one on the wii it could have online and improved grafix. And i dont care about spelin.

[nerd2max]

Yeah it actually did have online, MKDD did but no one ever used it

[xgamer3000]

how do i use online?!?! This is amaising!!!!

[MarioMaster95]

you need a broad band adapter

[PHILRYABKIN]

How do I acess the online mode?I dont know how to do it.

[ADCVirgo]

Im thinking about buying a bargain simple awesome game..Im a fan of Wipe Out and it entertains me a lot its a game where i can play for a few minutes and chill..I play PS3 all the time and im gonna take a rest till LBP arrives for the ps3...so is this game worth wasting my 5 bucks or renting it ???

[MisterChowPow]

Wipe out is nothing compared to f-zero. I've returned two wipe out games I've bought. The one on psp is terrible.

[gdzilla1946]

I want track creator on da f zero game 4 da wii

[tapirtoon2]

Man! Talking that way is stupid.

[yousini]

AAA

[joshuaboyt]

quit crying about brawl being different. it`s more realistic now and anyways melee was supposed to be the same, but they were rushed and couldn`t make it the way they wanted. after playing brawl i tried playing melee again but melee seemed retarded compared to brawl. there`s so much more that you can do that makes the fight more enjoyable.

[MaFioSo444]

yah i havent tried goin back playin melee yet, im in love with brawl but if i go back playin melee ill probably het bored fast

[xgamer3000]

In brawl it's just like,"oh, you got that item, ok you win" but in meelee there isn't cheap items like hydra, or the smash ball. And it was much more impressive then brawl. but the original will always be the best!

[joshuaboyt]

just found out that f-zero will be on the wii. it was confirmed a couple months ago. whoever is playing on that video really sucks. expert mode isn`t hard at all. whoever quits just because they think that the game is hard is a noob. it was hard at first for me but now expert and master mode is easy. it just takes practice.

[MaFioSo444]

they makin new f zero game???

[burningjelly4lyfe]

i dont think so supposedly that was the last but on wii it would be awesome

[xgamer3000]

I'll kill them all if they don't.

[fastshinycars123]

there are rumours that they are for the wii

[Halconandino]

dood now everything has a story mode to it

[ipodguru22]

*dude

[Bobubobme]

It's dood!!! PRINNY!!!!

[danielkrieger1]

I like hard games they are mad cool the only thing I dont like if its bullshit hard like mario kart wii.You think you are going to win and the next thing you know a blue shell hits you and you wind up like in 6 place.

[Nintendomanwill]

God almighty, after watching the rest of this vid-he's a terrible reviewer! He mentions the expert mode as difficult, and criticises the story mode for being too difficult on the first, easier playthrough! Criticising games as unfair because one has insufficient skill is unnaceptable and I'm glad he's been sacked from that awful website. And also if anybody thinks this is better than Mario Kart-play 4 player in this, then MK DD. You'll see a great disparity in fun between them.

[EvilHeadBoy]

oo i agree, mario kart owns as a multiplayer, but fzero is a better "racer" you know, with the speed and technicality and all.  I just want to see this game go online

[Nintendomanwill]

Jeff Gerstmann really was quite amateur. I mean he said you use the shunt move to "knock others of the side." The shunt move is actually a quick way of blowing the other vehicles up, and anybody who's gone as far as unlocking the AX cup and beating the story mode would have to learnt that-ergo Gerstmann hadn't finished the game. BTW F Zero X is FAR better than GX-the physics in that game were amazing-if you went the wrong way at full speed it would send you flying !

[WCarnation]

yeah, on home consoles. There were two GBA F-Zeros, but they are more like the SNES one.

[joshuaboyt]

this game is far better than the mario kart games!!! my custom machine freakin kills!!!

[EvilHeadBoy]

my favorite racing games are fzero and MK, because they're different, mario kart is that "lets race and blow eachother up" kinda game, and fzero is "lets go super fast and fly into eachother by flying really fast". My point is, mario kart is a great game, but not a real racing game, Fzero freaking rocks for obvious reasons, i hope they make a wii version ^^

[WCarnation]

They always have tons of copies of GX at Gamestop for $7

I would like a sequel on the Wii, but uh, I don't know what they'd really improve on gameplay-wise

Graphically, the game still looks really good to me and the Wii is more or less the same in power as the Gamecube, so I don't know how they could improve that. It still looks better than some Wii games to me.

Only thing I can think of is online and that's it

[EvilHeadBoy]

the wii is actually much better than the gamecube (techwise), and i hope they remake the game with cool controls, 30ppl wifi, and better physics

[UsurperKingZant]

F-Zero whatever for Wii would be insane. Just don't fuck it like you did to Smash, Nintendo. F-Zero should stay as a difficult game, especially with the technicality.

[EvilHeadBoy]

i like smash brawl better :) the only thing i think is a downgrade is target practice and how you can unlock everyone in SSE. What do you think they screwed up on? Fzero on wii will be great, just better have better physics, motion controls and mariokartwii (or greater) wifi 30ppl :D

[UsurperKingZant]

I just hate thechanges made from Melee. No wavedashing, no L-canceling, tripping, auto-sweet-spotted edge-grabs, infinite airdodge, no combos, the list goes. Melee had everything perfect, and Brawl is just.... boring as hell to watch!!!

[EvilHeadBoy]

i know what you mean, but i have to say, i only wished they kept L canceling, and air dodging multiple times is great, is what i think. but people are still getting better and new techniques are being discovered, so i think by the end of the year or so, there will be much to do; the same way melee was created, but melee only had smash 64 as history, so no one complained.

[Wynaught]

Under-appreciated game. Way ahead of Mario Kart: DD.

Fire Field and Big Blue: Ordeal own.

[turtlebird95]

It would be cool to race online

[joshuaboyt]

i have this game and i have probably one of the best custom machines. whoever is playing isn't very good.

[juventes]

Woah, if you fall in the gamecube F-Zero, you don't just, like, explode?

Or, "Retire" or whatever?

[juventes]

Woah, if you fall in the gamecube F-Zero, you don't just, like, explode?

Or, "Retire" or whatever?

[tigerscope]

you do die, they just used practice mode in the review

[juventes]

Oh, that's what happens in practice mode. Ok.

[JordanWii]

wow. Im 800th viewer.

[Omegatron666]

He didn't even mention that you can build your own machine, how lame.

[somecrazymoogle]

Well at least he still focused on the games positive parts such as the awesome sense of speed and challenge, and mentioned the great soundtrack (which I own, hehe)

[Omegatron666]

Yeah it has good music, which is not hard to find either.

[Darkneszora]

i wana play this game so bad i cant find it anywere

[snabald]

I got it on Amazon for 12 bucks shipped!

[GraffitiOverlord]

I found one at the Microplay near Famous Players for 15 bucks, theres one left if you haven't found a copy yet!

[Majora99]

Ebay. But I worn you, it is the hardest game ever.

[2Luke]

one of my favs

[beefwingers]

wow did the guy playing hit enough walls hehe they suck
