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.

Or a jap version?
I've been using the Acro Lynx GX custom made car, great speed and handling, you two tried "snaking" or "space flying" yet ?
The second versions of the Fire Field and Aeropolis tracks are excellent, while the final track in the circuit, Phantom Track is a feast for the eyes. Remember the PS2 game Rez? It's just like that, except about 10 times faster and with 29 opponents. Excellent.
Brilliant brilliant game.

The bomb one took me some time - only really because it's one of the Chapters that involves you going on a much larger circuit than you're used to.
Just travel relatively calmly up until you reach the sections with the gravel (beware, there are four or five seperate parts with gravel), and then when you're there, use the boost that you should've saved to boost through, and then just cruise to the finish.

I've bought all the cars it's possible to buy so far. Not bought any parts yet, as I'll do all that creating stuff properly later on once I've beaten all the tournaments and unlocked all the unlockable racers/Grand Prixs/Chapters in Story Mode.
So far I'm on Chapter 8 in Story Mode - completed about half of the tracks so far on Hard and one on Very Hard. Will probably do some more here later, but for now I'm off to beat the Diamond Cup multiple times.
