    One of the best games for Nintendo 64 in my opinion. I agree it's very underrated.

    • @retrosoul8770
      @retrosoul8770 7 років тому +1

      I'd personally say it is the best title on the system. Top 3 at the very least. But it really depends on taste for sure. Most folks would op for Oot, Smash or M64.

    This game was 60FPS, very rare for an N64 game

    • @SEGARetroBR
      @SEGARetroBR 7 років тому +2

      Man, Mark really needs to upgrade his videos to 60fps. 30fps doesn't do this game justice.

    Dear Nintendo,
    Make a F-Zero game or I won't buy the Switch
    Sincerely,
    Some guy on the internet who has wanted a new F-Zero game for many years

      There’s a very similar game on the shop currently.

      Fast RMX

    • @retrosoul8770
      @retrosoul8770 7 років тому +2

      Similar only perhaps in aesthetic design, but not very much in gameplay. And Gumball you're definitely not alone, 14 yrs since my favorite game ever launched, still counting.

    @BackForwardPunch 7 років тому +11

    Mark, it's too bad you don't read the comments, because I found out there's a full guitar soundtrack of this game! It's called "F-Zero X: Guitar Arrange Edition", you'll find it on youtube. At least some other people will maybe read and check it out, its awesome!

    Love this game and series hopefully we'll get a new one soon. i mean its only been since 2003 for a main console game.

  • @MightyGazelle1

    Named my UA-cam account after a racer in this game ^.^

  • @indigo6518
    @indigo6518 4 роки тому +2

    You can't forget the X Cup. Randomly generated stages every time.

  • @Zinfidel1
    @Zinfidel1 7 років тому +4

    Fast Racing Neo seems like the spiritual successor to this. Someone stepped up with racing boats when Nintendo stepped down.

  • @nickdudesville5154
    @nickdudesville5154 7 років тому +2

    it's pretty self-evident, but you didn't even mention the excellent track design...

  • @cheyrasmussen264
    @cheyrasmussen264 4 роки тому +2

    Seriously great game. I really liked GX but for whatever reason there was something about it that didn't quite recapture the magic of X for me. I'd actually love it if we got a game like GX but with some of the style of X, in terms of the comic book stuff and also the music.

  • @PanicInSectorFive
    @PanicInSectorFive 7 років тому +1

    Pro tip: Corner with tapping the shoulder buttons. It removes a lot of that horrible slow understeer sliding and also you often take out a lot of competitors. It will improve your laptimes significantly!

  • @aceassn716
    @aceassn716 7 років тому

    This game has some of the best track designs, and the Xcup was a random race generator!

  • @DobieMeltfire
    @DobieMeltfire 7 років тому +1

    AG racing games been making a return recently. You should check out Fast RMX, RedOut, Formula Fusion, and Grip, also BallisticNG is a free WipeOut like game.

  • @ClexYoshi
    @ClexYoshi 7 років тому +4

    But Mark! have you heard of or tried the F-Zero X Expansion Kit? that is like... RIGHT up your alley. it's for Nintendo's equivalent to the 32X, the N64 Disk Drive!

  • @ILLRICARDO
    @ILLRICARDO 7 років тому

    This was the only racing game, that I took time to master the tracks, mechanics and improve lap times.still remember the first time I heard the soundtrack, it blew me away!!

  • @charlesgomesbr
    @charlesgomesbr 7 років тому +2

    you can find the guitar soundtrack on youtube, pure metal

  • @arcadeperfectreviews2653
    @arcadeperfectreviews2653 7 років тому +1

    You'd love "Fast RMX" on the switch. Death sled racing at its finest

  • @willriley6964
    @willriley6964 7 років тому

    This is probably my favourite N64 game of all time. I loved Goldeneye and WCW Revenge and I put a tonne of hours into Top Gear Rally & Duke Nukem 64 but this one was always special.

  • @Blade383210
    @Blade383210 7 років тому +1

    I've never played the game but yes the music is so great. There's a great video on youtube called f-zero x guitar arrange and it is even better than the original soundtrack to anyone interested check it out

  • @bhardnavares5903
    @bhardnavares5903 2 роки тому +1

    Even tho the visuals are kinda bland in F-Zero X but damn this game really plays well and that 60fps smoothness man! So good! 👌💯 My #1 racing game for the N64 next to Beetle Adventure Racing.

  • @retrosoul8770
    @retrosoul8770 7 років тому

    Top 3 game from the 5th Gen imo, one of the very few, if not the ONLY premiere 64 game to run at a solid 60fps and play timelessly. Excellent classic, only surpassed by its mighty successor GX on the GC.
    You could argue that the track selection may overall be better here, and air flight it undoubtedly better too, but superior driving mechanics, handling, sense of speed and story missions make GX the best overall, but man they're both so spectacular that it doesn't matter at all.
    Lastly I wouldn't say that F-Zero and Wipeout aren't similar at all, they actually play completely differently. Both represent the pinnacle of the genre though.

    The music is probably the best music in any N64 game.
    Also, this is the only 3D game on the N64 to run at 60 fps.

  • @problemodude

  • @4dhumaninstrumentality789
    @4dhumaninstrumentality789 7 років тому

    Hey Mark you should listen to the official F-Zero X guitar arrangement album. It's super dope. Only thing that sucks is that there's no cover for "Devil's Call In Your Heart".

  • @Htbaa
    @Htbaa 7 років тому

    I think it looks pretty! Maybe a bit simplistic? But I like it. I decided on not getting it on WiiU VC because there was talk about bad analog controls. This might've been fixed now though.

  • @kc1423
    @kc1423 6 років тому

    Love the game, love the review (as always). But don't forget to use Z and R buttons to help turn. It will make your life so much easier. This game is hard as nails to begin with, but not using the full controls makes it impossible.

  • @RaimarLunardi

    Wow, having played only on emulator with high resolution I am surprised to see a low res video of it!!

  • @henrituboso
    @henrituboso 7 років тому

    I don't think it is a underrated F-Zero game, but it deserves a better reputation within the Nintendo 64 racing games library. For me, the best racing game on the console

      @Mitsuraga 7 років тому +2

      Good stuff. When my wife and I were first dating and she came over my house for some smoochin', I just left this on the title screen after having just downloaded it to my Wii. The shredding loop of N64 guitar didn't seem to distract or bother her one bit.

  • @Michirin9801

    Fucking love this game. Still play it on the real hardware to this day. The music, the artwork, the characters, the 30 contestant field, the SPEED. I could go on and on about why I love this game. Blows away any Wipeout title IMO.

  • @mikejones-vd3fg
    @mikejones-vd3fg 7 років тому

    One of my favorite video game soundtrack of all time! I thought the N64 version did it best too. Never owned an N64 but would buy just to play this game original. Always feel the analog sticks arent mapped like the original systems in emulators so I get the feeling it takes away the experience the designers originally intended.

  • @SEGARetroBR
    @SEGARetroBR 7 років тому

    Something quite evil about this game is, when you kill an opponent you hear some childish/happy xylophone, and a star appears at the top of the screen. And if you get 5 stars (kill 5 opponents) in one race you win one life. Haha

    ah the N64, where every game people have the slightest fucking inclination of nostalgia for costs at least 80 fucking dollars.Thankfully this looks like an exception

  • @johneygd
    @johneygd 7 років тому +1

    Sure those graphics look kubistic,blurry with muddy rainbow banding colors, has little backgrounds and special effects and the music & sounds effects sounding really muffed,but that's because nintendo had to deal with limited cartride space and 4KB of ram for textures.
    So for it's time it was a blast compared with the snes game but looking at it now feels so lifeless, can't help.

    • @Garbagehead5
      @Garbagehead5 7 років тому

      They were specifically targeting 60FPS for this game, that's why the graphics look so bad compared to other N64 games.

    • @retroboy-fh1ji
      @retroboy-fh1ji 7 років тому

      The reason of why this graphics are pretty much inexistent and super simplistic is because they improved performance to run at perfect 60fps with so many cars at the same time.

      @OmegaVideoGameGod 6 років тому

      I can explain why, I tried to understand this as well and I got an answer, the CEOs of Nintendo only care about money and don't care that much about how much effort goes into their work on the same level, really Nintendo has come out and said F-Zero is dead because they feel that it won't make them money.
