The concept here was good, but poorly executed. I have played a lot of games on the GameCube, and usually I resign myself to playing games that have great critical reviews. This title I picked up as a budget title, and after a week, I sold it. It is fun as a rental, but save your money for other purchases. So far, Nintendo's own F-Zero franchise looks to be heading in a similar gameplay direction as this game. I only hope that F-Zero for the GameCube turns out better than this.

Not so good, G3 tries to copy wipeout and f-zero

Wipeout XL is one of the best racing game ever and Psygnosis is awesome. After the new generation consoles came out (Xbox, PS2, Gamecube), games like Quantum Redshift, Wipeout Fusion, and F-Zero GX all try to copy the original Wipeouts. Quantum Redshift and Wipeout Fusion are horrible. F-Zero GX is a good game but lacks weaponary. Im still waiting for the new 'real' Wipeout to appear.

Extreme G3 tries to copy wipeout and f zero. The way the action moves, the way the track moves, the steering action, all feel decent. Air brake works good. The turning has limited range, I find it impossible to steer the race bike in reverse track fashion. The courses are pretty good, the shaloms, downhills, twists are all nice. However the tracks could've used some jumps or ramps, and tunnels.

The graphics is good but worse than the other 3 games. Graphics is more like Dreamcast or N64 quality but still good and gets the job done. The sound is lame, the techno music is cheesy and very low in quality. And all the bikes look the same.

The weaponary system is nice. There are many types of weapon and you can carry up to 3 per race. You can switch between weapons and use the boost feature too. This part Acclaim did a good job.

Problems: There are no alternate camera views. No replay.

Overall this is an average game.

Best Futuristic Racing Game Ever

This game is pure greatness.
There are 12 racers, 10 tracks, 12 weapons, and you can go faster than the speed of sound. This is one of my favorite racing games, and if you try it it will probably be yours too.

This is the best

I have this game and it is really cool. the graphics and sound effects are hot.This game is cool when u have friends over, so u can race each other, and try to blow up there bike. And yes there are weapons on the motor cycles, so u can try to become the winner buy blowing up the other bikes. This game is intence . you should really buy it.

Really Good, Really Exaggerated

This game does not make sense. I GOT IT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO AND IT IS VERY FUN, BUT HOW CAN MOTERCYCLES GO IN EXCESS OF 600 MPH?
mE AND MY FRIENDS PLAY IT ALL THE TIME AND WHEN YOU DO A RACE BY YOURSELF, YOU ARE ALONE FOR THE WHOLE TIME BECAUSE WITH TWELVE RACERS ON A HUGE TRACK ARE RACING EACH OTHER, IT'S HARD TO BE NEAR THE OTHER RACERS. I ADMIT THAT THIS IS A GAME AFTER ALL BUT AKKLAIM DIDN'T HAVE TO TAKE IT THIS FAR. The graphics are very well designed and I am a very good rider now. some bikes make it feel that you are flying.It is a very good game for the cube but not perfect...

I don't know about this one....

I don't quite know about this one. It's cool......you shoot people to pass them, it never works for me. Not really "Exteme" G 3 Racing, more like wha?! G Racing to me.Since all you "REALLY" do is well...."TURN" for example. There is hardly any drops,twists,super sharp turns that kind of thing. I used a cheat code to get all the tracks, I played all of the levels, after that I didn't play anymore. It's really boring. I thought to myself "Wow, you know that game is so fun I'll have to play it again next year",but the reason I gave it a two is because of multi-player mode. I think you should rent this before you purchase it. Then you will see what I mean.

Nope.

I didn't like this game. PS2 has it's Wipeout Fusion, Xbox has it's Quantum Redshift, and Gamecube has this. This game dosen't compare to the other systems. It basicaly is a very mediocre futuristic racing title. I suggest you stay away.

If this is anything like the old one on Nintendo 64....

If this game is anything like the old one on Nintendo 64, it is going to rock. The game has very clever tracks and the fun factor is off the charts. Now with the power of the Gamecube, you get the graphics along with the game play. I am going to buy this, and so should you....you will enjoy it!!!
