Finally a futuristic racer! Great now I've done away with all the dull/shallow realistic racers I can move onto this furistic dull/shallow racer.
and nobody plays it online yet! Joy.
and yet this looks like the most fun racer ever to grace the Xbox.
No weapons though. :(

Powerdrome was a great game on the Amiga. Sure, the graphics were a tad basic, but the gameplay was A1. Looks like they finally decided to update it.
For those of you who missed it, or are just too damn young to know what I'm on about, here's a quick blast from the past : [URL]http://hol.abime.net/?id=1124[/URL]

Yes, life is very unfair.
I always thought an online Extreme G would be amazing. I don't think F-Zero would be too great to be honest, bar the prospect of 30-player.
Still, this looks liek the closest we're gonna get for a while at least. Too bad I don't have online. :'-(

Gameplay footage looks good.
Nice mix between F-Zero and Extreme-G.
Why it's taken this long for an online futuristic racer to turn up on Xbox is odd.
Certainly rather be driving one of these speedy beauties than some pixel perfect Ferrari. Mabye if I could crash the Ferrari over the barriers thus ending it's race then it'd be a different story.
KILL. MAIM. DESTROY.
