I used to own this game and it is repetitive the tracks are boring and there are barely any specail features. Yoy may like making your own F-Zero machine, but it's barely customizable. I pity those of you who still own this game. Do not under any circumstances buy this game. Multiplayer leaves alot to be desired, too. Go with Mario Kart: Double Dash. Highly dissapointing.

okay

I really dont like this game.
its pretty much impossible to beat. I beat the first two missions in story mode and ive been stuck ever since. its pretty cool that you get to create your own vehicle, and the multi player is ok, but other than that i dont really like this game. now, i could be wrong maybe i just suck at racing games, but oh well.

wow this was dissapointing

this game is bad seriusly. The levels are mostly all striaght, u barely turn ur frigging ship. Also the point og the game is to use boosts the whole game to pass ur opponents. WOW. Ur ship has like no health. U hit the wall 10 times and ur done. The stages with actual turning u will hit the walls multiple times. And yay there goes ur ship. when u fall off the edge, or ur ship explodes, it doesnt send u back to the track like a good game, it starts over. wow nintendo u people are idiots for doing something like that, i played it for 10 mins and hate it. .....

Boring game....

The single player mode gets very boring quick, its not online and there are no weapons. The background gets recycled so there are only FEW different looking courses. The 2 extra cups offer NO new background, just different tracks.

The multi player mode is HORRIBLE. You can only race against other human, no other computer players are there. You can't play gran prix mode in multi player UNLIKE mario kart.

Overall this game is not that good, mario kart is better.

Really Disappointing

I've been a fan of F-zero for a really long time, all of the games I've played are really good, but this one, I've got to say, is really disappointing. For starters, the Story Mode is pathetic, the acting is horrible, I think the same programmers did the voices, or some actor wannabes who think they are such a big shot.

Another thing, the race tracks, the graphics and scenarios are awesome, but man! Those tracks look like some horror sci-fi movie, they're all dark and gloomy! Besides they are really boring! And the music? They've only got percusion, man it gets on your nerves. Anyways, I won't say thet it is a bad game, it still has its good things, the graphics and sound effects are the bomb. But if sega and nintendo teamed up, you would expect something better, wouldn't you??

Graphics- 10
Music- 4
Acting- 0 (no, im not exaggerating)
Sound effects- 9
Control- 6
New stuff- 5
Replay Value- 8

If you have an n 64 try to get the oher f zero, you'll get it cheaper and it a lot better than fzero-gx. Although overall it really is a good game, it is not worth your 50 hard earned dollars. Get Elmo's Big Adventure, at least that is more entertaining..

A good game falls short of being great.

F Zero GX has finally arrived complete with 4 cups actually there are 5 if you take your memory card in to the F Zero AX machine,new tracks,all your favorite drivers from the past plus a few new ones.So whats the problem with F Zero GX?Well there are quite a few things and one of them is the graphics.When I was reading about this game in Nintendo Power, I was expecting a visual masterpiece like Metroid Prime but the minute I played it I was sorely disappointed by the way this game looks.Sure maybe I missed some of the "great details" because of the extreme sense of speed but the games just looks dark and gloomy and not bright and coloful like the original F Zero or F Zero X.What do I think of the graphics?Call me spoiled but I think they kind of suck.This is forgivable because of the clever track designs and fast speed however but there is another thing that bugs me about this game(the difficulty).When I played Story mode I finished the first level in just a few hours but the 2,3, and 4 levels took me too months to finish and yeah I felt good about completing them but I felt it pointless to play anymore of it even though on occasion I do.The 1,2 and 3 cups are really easy if you got the right vehicle but the 4th and 5th(the one you unlock if you take your memory card to the F Zero AX machine)were extemely hard no matter what craft you selected.And yeah I finished them but they were extremely and I mean extremely frustrating.Again I felt happy that I got through with them but playing those cups again is just pointless.And while this game is fun it isnt worth your 50 bucks.I think its worth it if it was on sale for 20 but 30 would be pushing it.I think the biggest problem with this game is that it doesnt offer anything new at least anything good thats new.I thought F Zero X for the N64 was a much better game and while this game is good it isnt "awesome" like the writers at Nintendo Power were claiming it to be.While I play this game on occasion it has very little to bring you back to play it again.Im glad I still have an N64 with F Zero X to boot.

VERY HARD, YET VERY WELL WORTH IT.

As I stopped by my local Gamestop, I stumbled upon this bargin-bined game, F-Zero GX. I immediatley bought it as it was slashed through a barrage of sale prices. I have to say though, this game is worth any price put upon.
For those who are unfamilar with this game, F-Zero is what we call a "futuristic" racing game that takes no mercy. Begining the Grand Prix Mode beginners may pee in their pants because this game is not easy.
The racers are pretty diverse, ranging from Samuaris to aliens to human beings, most of the racers are gone due to the fact that you have unlock them by winning the Grand Prix, which again as I said in the previous paragraph, can be hard at times.
Although the backcover of the game claims to have "20 tracks" its pretty much the same 5-6 track but with nostalgic loops and hard turns.
Now the difficulty of this game can lead beginners and moderate players bitting their controller. The AI in this game can be pretty cheap during segments of the races; while I was heading towards the end of the race I was in first place and I was on the home stretch, one narrow gap and I win! So I think. All of a sudden, 5 racers begin endeavoring to crowd already small gap and kill me off since I forget to mention there's an energy bar. Yes, for boosting and your way of "defending yourself."
Overall this game is okay. veterans of this series and those stepping up to the plate will love the action, the nostalgia races, cool music and the challenge itself to be the best.

N64 version has significantly more playability

The 'cube version moves TOO FAST and the perspective is off -- doesn't help at all. In the N64 version the point of view let you anticipate the curves. This version moves way too fast and the point of view is way too close to the virtual ground. I'm glad I have a working copy of the N64 version.

OK 6/10
