Yes it is hard, but it rules so much.
So far I have: won a grand prix championship, knocking my rival off the tracks several times, so that outta show him.
Played a level on story mode.
Watched some cool FMVs.
Designed my own ship, which is orange and blue and I put some wicked logos on it. It slow and weak, but I'll improve it. :-)
The game is starting to get hard now, but its so good, and I am always willing to go back for a challenge.
The graphics are awesome, and the backgrounds are so detailed. Yes it is as fast as you think itll be and the twisty tracks are so cool. The multiplayer is rockin too!
Seriously, you have to get this, but you already knew that. And the USA version does work on freeloader, and the action replay version of freeloader, I tried it on both, for all you importers out there (josh).
Ok, I'm off to whoop Captain Falcons butt in the grand prix again.

Heh, indeed.
It has some excellent courses, don't you agree?
I especially like the second Aeropolis track. The second Fire Field one is nice as well.
Aqua Goose body
Super Lynx cockpit
Titan-G4 boost
Spaceflying
To get an example of spaceflying, go to Mute City Twist Road with one of the vehicles JKT listed. Set to max accel, and right when you jump (after the second dash plate), hold left+L. You'll start flying in a circle, although at first you'll kinda feel like you're falling. But after a few seconds you'll start to see the track get smaller and smaller below you. You'll just have to hold this left+L for several minutes, with the whole planet sinking farther away beneath you, then let go and come diving back toward the track. Right+R works also for spaceflying, but it failed the one time I tried it at MCT, maybe I was just angled wrong or something when I jumped.
You need to use one of these vehicles:
Garnet Dragon
BODY - Speedy dragon
COCKPIT - Garnet phantom
BOOSTERS - Sunrise 140
Paper Craft
BODY - Speedy dragon
COCKPIT - Garnet phantom
BOOSTERS - Euros-01
You can reach speeds of over 9000 by doing this !
Snaking
Use Black Bull and make sure you set the acceleration as high as possibly.
then just press left trigger while pressing left on the control stick and then press right trigger while pressing right on the control stick.
it should mimic how a snake moves. you know, left right left right, rhytym is more important than speed, snaking well means you can get above 4000kmh on a decent straight !
Hope this helps, any questions just ask

OH! I found out something EVERYONE who has f-zero GX look at James Mcloud and his car, look familiar? he is the human version of Fox Mcloud and look at his ship there the same colours
also his hair is the same and he has the little xbox live thing on the side of his face, IT HAS TO BE! I'm 99% certain, its not confirmed, you may already know this but I just thought I'd say! :-D
