    I was really glad when they re-released this but I was even more glad to find out it actually holds up really well and is still as fun as it was back in the day.

    If the game's too easy, try beating it without upgrades. Done that on the N64 (...emulator) a few weeks ago and it really requires you to push your skills, no matter which racer you pick. (moreso because that particular version comes with massive input lag)

      @@joethealternativegamer3935 The game was fun, there's a new mechanic where you can destroy the other pod-racers similar to F-Zero and the game rewards you for it by giving you extra cash and taking out the racer for the rest of the track, but I comes at the disadvantage that if you blow up, you lose. The game also has less races and racers compared to the original but the races feels much more unique. Overall it's a good racing game but I much preferred the original. It available on the PS-Store if you want to try it.

    Love your reviews ^^
    Btw, there is a sequel called SW racer revenge on the ps2 but it's not as awesome as this one unfortunetly but I think it's worth the playing :)
    And there is another racing on the aracade I think called SW racer arcade but I know almost nothing about it

      @@joethealternativegamer3935 There's also a pod racing section (with several tracks I think) to the Star Wars Kinect game on the Xbox 360. I've never played it but the graphics look nice - shame it's a Kinect game though, as the controls could be tricky. Would have liked the option to use a normal controller.

      I played it the arcade one, my tiny brain couldn't handle the twin engine controls

    I don't get why a new pod-racing game hasn't take off. It was the best thing about the Prequel Trilogy.
    The possibility of endless micro-transactions and related merchandising should be absolutely mouth-watering to any real capitalist. 🤑

    You re-use a lot of the same talking points over in over in your script. Very repetative. Thanks for doing the research though, overall fun video
