"F-Zero X"

Another N64 title that stays true to its SNES roots, F-Zero X retains the air hockey physics and favours speed over presentation with its colourful but rather featureless graphics. Again its the 3D modelling that is the main leap forward which features looping, rollercoaster style tracks making for a fun futuristic racer. The only problem is that in all but one department (F-Zero has a proper championship mode) Wipeout 64 is markedly better...its physics, graphics, music and variety are all superior. But in the end, they're different enough to warrant owning both.

As Good As The First One

A lot of people thought this was a step down from the SNES version of the game. I totally disagree. The races were great, adding half-pipes and other 3D aspects that the original couldn't have. There's a wide variety of vehicles varying from big and powerful to light and nimble. There's one event where you try and destroy a set number of vehicles as fast as you can.
Multi-player is great and has a unique function. if you beat the game, you can open up random courses where it generates something completely unique when you play with friends to keep everyone on a level playing field.
It's still very fast, it's still F-Zero. This is a good one.
