This thread has been linked to the game 'F-Zero GX'.
I've had F-Zero GX just over a month now and can easily say it's one of the best Gamecube games with Mario, Zelda and Metroid. However there is a problem what has now just shown (i left it a month of playing to make sure my opinion was valid) it's miles to hard! We're talking double the hardness of for example Phazon Mines on Metroid Prime or even the Mario Sunshine old-school levels! I'm really enjoying it and understand that games have to be difficult so it has alot of replay value, but it's stupidly hard on some of the story levels, and don't get me even started on the Diamond Cup!
I thought i'll tell you this just incase some people hate really difficult games (as the USA version is out Friday) and for those who love difficult games! Yes you could say i'm a cr*p player but even i can tell when a game is too difficult! Hope this helps you out with your final decision on buying it, if you like hard games and have alot of patient's then go for it, it's superb. Otherwise be ready for an insanely difficult game on even 'Standard' play..... :)

I'm one of those drivers that likes to go full speed and use the corners to turn.
Hence I suck at F-Zero games.

Although difficult, I'll complete it. Because I was amazing at F-Zero X (the only game I can really say this about - I'm normally average at games), and I don't see why I shouldn't be at this.

I can't wait for GX. Better than any Gran Turismo 4 pap, and easily going to be the best racer in a long long time. w00tage.

Sorry that should of been 'Emerald cup' instead of Diamond, in my topic.
Anyway, good for you, with an attitude like that you could be fantastic at the game and always enjoy it!
It's great fun to go really fast (i haven't exceeded 1600) on earlier levels in the first cup, it's very difficult to actually fall off the edge, however things start to turn extremly difficult on the second cup on 'Standard' setting; you have to go really fast, not fall off the edge, becareful of your opponents and any other object on the race track and make no mistakes! One hit on the side makes at least 3 cars go past you!!! Buy it and enjoy it, but just be ready for a very difficult game that i'll doubt i will ever complete!!
It is fantastic though...... :)

I sucked at F-Zero X and still managed to enjoy it, should think it'll be the same with this one.
I loved the challenge from the old one, i got all the cups and everything.

Ooohh oohhh, so am I, expect that I don't suck at F-Zero, I'm only average at a game for a change.

It's miles to the city too.
I can't understand what all the fuss is about. Yeh I'm looking forward to F Zero GX when its finally released here but having played Extreme G 3 and earned the 1000cc bike, there can't be much more speed on ANY game! F Zero just cannot be faster! It would be impossible to play if it was faster. I know F Zero's playability, control, level design etc will be far superior to XG3's but as i've already said, F Zero just cannot be any faster. And if it is, i'll eat my hat!
GX is the fastest game ever.
