This is an awesome game, and it is very easy to get hooked on. Even though 'The Phantom Menace' wasn't a great movie, this game highlights the better parts of it. I almost forget that it's related to the movie when I play it! The best part about this game is that it's easy to learn, but fairly difficult to master. You can win all the tournament races fairly easily, but it's hard to beat your opponents when you set it one maximum difficulty level (aka fast). Great game - everyone should give it a try!

ONE OF THE BEST LUCASARTS GAMES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game impressed me right when I installed it on our home computer. VERY FUN!!!!! Race with podracer people on Episode I.
Earn different people. Some are better than others. For instance, you'll get Anakin Skywalker at the beginning of the game and pass the whole game to get Selbulba![By the way, Selbulba has a fire blaster!]A MUST HAVE for everybody!!!!!!!!!!

It's quite a game

I am not a racer enthusiast. I think most racer games can go kiss my *BEEP*. But that's merely my opinion :). They're not very creative, more just to make it seem like you're in the car really driving it. Gets boring - FAST, unless you play with other people.

This game is quite different though. I think just everyone about already knows that they hover off the ground through one way or another, and that's what makes it interesting. It gives us a flowing movement to the Pod when turning. The high speeds are also very contributing to the overall gameplay. Although not as Physics heavy as other racer games, it certainly has a creative spark to it, with Star Wars basis to back it up.

BTW, ALL Racers should have an economical part of the game. The idea of buying and upgrading the car/pod you're racing really motivates you to progress through the game, since if you buy that new engine, you'll see the results immediately.

Racin' fun

This game is the BOMB!!
Star Wars Racer is the best racer I have ever played!
I just installed it on my computer, I played it for 5 hours straight!! Yeah, I know what your thinking, "this game is by LucasArts and it probably stinks", it doesn't it is a blast, literally, when your goin' 479 mph and you go off a 60 ft. ramp you feel like your in the pod just like Anakin. Anyways you probably made up your mind before you ever started reading my review whether to buy it or not, so do whatever, but if you take my advice buy it now before they're sold out.

Oh yeah, even though it came out in 99' the graphics are great!

Sweet Game

I've always loved racing games, be it racing combat, arcade, or stunt. Troubled that my favorite racing game no longer runs on my new system, I went out in search of a replacement. Just happened by a local game store and saw Star Wars: Episode 1 Racer. Bought it after checking out the demo and it's awesome! Ultra fast (600+ mph), nice, lush 3D graphics with great terrain detail, and lots of tracks and different pods to chose from. You will need a nice 3D accelerator and at least a PII-300 to run it nicely. The controls are very easy and I use the keyboard as I'm used to that. It's an older game, now part of the "LucasArts Archives Series" but well worth it!

STAR WARS!!!

Star Wars is the bomb! so This game is cool you can choose from over 15 players and over 20 levels play the game to see what you think. The cool thing is its based on Epidsode 1. If you like racing games and star wars, stop going crazy and get this game!

Podracing at it's best

I have this game for PC and N64. Both are really great and almost the same. I like the PC version because it has better Graphics and runs better, that's why I perfer the PC version more. Anyway Ther are 3 groups of 7 races in each group and 4 bonus levels. I personally like Beedo's Wild Ride. They even got the real boonta classic in there. So if your looking for a great game this is it.
