Sure the difficulty isn't exactly balanced, making even novice mode a challenging experience, but the track design, blazing speeds, heavy soundtrack, and destruction physics make for an adrenaline rush that is unmatched in gaming. Add in mechanics that are easy to learn and hard to master, and you have what is far and away the best racing game I've ever played.
The magnum opus of racing games. Still to this day i havent experienced any new racing game that had the perfect balance of tight playability and adrenaline rush speed that this game has.
The only bad thing about this game is that its AI is extremely cheap on hard difficulties and the game's story mode. Some of the story mode chapters will not leave you any room for error so be at your most tenacious when playing.

A very cool follow up that's just a bit too unforgiving for my tastes. Of course, it's true that F-Zero was always pretty unforgiving, but I found this game to be harder to control, and it also had a lot of tracks that were both harder and longer than those in F-Zero X, which made it harder to finish reliably. Still, there's a lot great here. It has cut scenes, the tracks run through actual environments, and cool mission modes. While I struggled with this, I do still think it's very cool.
Never before have I had so much fun with a game I’m so bad at. Every few years I pop this game back in and play it for a while. Every couple of those I actually make some progress in the story mode. I think I’m a little more than half way done with it at this point. And I’ve absolutely loved every moment of it. No game has ever done such a good job of making you feel so fast.
F-ZERO GX literally gave me heart palpitations. That's how crazy it is. Its the most competent racing game. So much attention to detail and polish. Though the game doesn't take itself serious with the characters and story...It makes up for with its fast, responsive, and fun gameplay. I love to use the Astro robin, especially after watching the F-ZERO anime :) this game has some killer music as well. Songs like Infinite Blue, Blood Falcons Theme, Shotgun Kiss, ect. Not to mention the game has perfect difficulty. This game is hard AF but it allows beginners to warm up, and is very friendly early on unlike Sonic Riders.
