they put star fox’s dad in this for absolutely no reason

UNDEFEATED. UNRIVALED. UNSURPASSED. The best in the GameCube library. The best in Nintendos entire lineup. The best in gaming as a whole.

My ENTIRE house physically shakes every time I fire this game up. Tides all across the world are effected, mountains grow by several dozen meters, and extreme weather conditions become more common just from you playing this game. Try it for yourself, it's great.

It runs on the Super Monkey Ball engine. 10/10.

Its been 20 years and its aged flawlessly, one of and arguably the best racing game ever made.

Nintendo simply doesn't have the balls to even attempt to make a follow up to this beast.


my favorite game on the super monkey ball engine

Fun game with a great sense of speed. Plenty of great tracks but the emerald cup in particular has some annoying ones. The high speed, unforgiving tracks and slippery physics can lead to some frustrating game overs but overall the grand prixs are a good time. The story mode is a pain though. I prefer X. Also captain falcon kneels to the MIGHTY GAZELLE.

One of the best and most refined racers of all time, F-Zero GX was at the time (and I like to think it remains) a technical marvel for the Nintendo Gamecube courtesy of Sega.

The sense of speed combined with colorful 3D graphics, futuristic setting with art direction, and of course, incredible performance in terms of frame rate; make this one of the most impressive futuristic racer experiences out there. This game continues the foot steps of the also great F-Zero X for the Nintendo 64 in terms of providing an ample selection of characters and courses and a great soundtrack which is now more focused on techno sounding instead of the hard rock tunes that dominated X (which I personally prefer). There is less emphasis in the 'combat' mechanic presented in X and instead this game pushes the player to have a more refined and competitive skill to come out on top, especially on the newly added story mode which can be incredibly difficult in the later chapters.

We can only hope that this game will at one point get a proper sequel or at least a remake.

If I played this game when I was 7 and not 3 I would be unstoppable at video games today.

make another one you hack frauds

Absolutely fantastic futuristic racer. The difficulty is high, but I guess I must be superhuman or something because back in the day I managed to beat story mode on the highest difficulty anyway.

people always get sad about not having a new F-Zero in nearly two decades but honestly i don't even blame them it's hard to follow up on this

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.

I consider myself to be pretty skilled at video games. I've played arcade racers most of my life. However.
I don't understand how more people don't talk about how absolutely bull-shit tough this game is. I respect the hell out of the design, and the mechanics - but the other racers are just too perfect, man. I can't.

It is absolutely an improvement in every conceivable way from F-Zero X. The driving feels much better and tighter, the tracks are much more interesting and longer, the environments look astonishing even to this day, all of it is nothing short of fantastic. I didn't even find it as hard as some people say it is, hell I'd say F-Zero X and Wipeout 2 are harder, but that's because it does feel very fair.
I won't attempt finishing the story missions though, damn are those indeed hard as shit.

This game is incredibly wild and fast, and that's why I like it.

El sexo fue inventado en 2003 y fue llamado F zero GX para la gamecube

F-Zero peaked with this game. Altrough I haven't completed Story Mode, I did all the Grand Prix cups.

It's really, really hard. But it's so good I can take the difficulty as a challenge to surpass. The sense of speed is insane, it's incredible that the Gamecube moved this without much of a sweat at 60fps! A must have for adrenaline junkies like me.

Nintendo is too scared to release a new F-Zero because they know they can't top GX. A perfect game, one of the best racers of all time no doubt.

fast, unlike me WHEN I FUCK HOT GIRLS

Best racing game I've ever played.

I was originally gonna give this a 4.5, as there are extremely minor flaws, but every game has flaws, and other games I've given 5 stars to have more flaws. So screw it, this is a 5 star racing game.

It saddens me that Mario Kart overtook F-Zero as Nintendos premeire racing game, it makes plenty of sense with Nintendo moving to a more casual gamer market, and Mario Kart simply being easier and more luck based, but F-Zero is just so much fun, and there's so much more skill and strategy involved.

I think I prefer the music of F-Zero and F-Zero X but the music here still bangs extremely. It is one of those games that got caught up in the era during the early 2000s where everything was super future and techy feely if you know what I'm talking about, and the soundtrack heavily emphasizes this.

The gameplay is insanely tight and fast, genuinely so thrilling, truly some balls to the walls racing that gives you a rush you can't get from other racers.

This game is a must play.

F-Zero GX hit everything I wanted in a racing game all at once! The gameplay, the controls, the course designs, the music, the sound effects, everything just felt so damn perfect! It's almost humiliating the way one of Nintendo's own franchises reached such a level of brilliance by the likes of SEGA!

I adored every ounce of this game, most especially how intense and difficult the racing became on higher-difficulties, asking you to hone every single essence of your elite racing skills against bot racers with an endless supply of rubber bands! The tight feeling of driving your car and every teeny-tiny movement you'd make aligning with it was incredible. This game asked for surgery-levels of precision and air-tight focus above all else.

While F-Zero X felt just right with its heavy metal vibe, the hard-hitting techno in F-Zero GX fit neatly in this futuristic hell of tall buildings and industrial venues. Looking back almost 20 years later, it's still unbelievable how well this game aged and how much of it holds up. I sometimes don't need to wonder why they haven't made a legitimate successor to this, it's basically impossible!

It's brutally challenging, unforgiving, difficult as hell, but holy hell, how does this game look so good, play so well, and deliver so much still, twenty years after its release?

A game so perfect it literally killed the F-Zero franchise since then, as Nintendo has been saying they don't see what more they could do with it.

Well, at least release a Remastered version, you cowards.

Best racing game all time. free


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.

All these years later, it's still one of the finest, most thrilling heart-attack inducers the game industry has ever created.

what the fuck going on in miami bruh

In an extremely rare opportunity -- and an absolutely unheard one at the time -- Nintendo and SEGA joined hands to conceive a monstrous speed demon of a racing game.

Developed by Amusement Vision and utilizing the engine that powers their Super Monkey Ball games, F-ZERO GX is an obscenely FAST racing game that will constantly punish clumsy maneuvering, and it will feel good as it happens.

Maneuvering is everything in this game, and the design around the GameCube controller makes it so your delicate touch on the shoulder buttons will easily make the difference between you taking home the gold, or becoming a sticker on a wall.

The graphics are nothing to scoff at with a striking visual presentation while maintaining a virtually constant 60fps, and the soundtrack goes from electronic to a fusion with heavy metal, it is a joy for both eyes and ears.

If you are building a GameCube collection, this entry is a must on your library. Do not miss this one out.
