Summary: I rank this game amongst other futuristic racing greats such as "F-Zero X" and "Extreme G2". It has excellent, challenging gameplay...wonderful graphics, and some pretty good sound overall. Don't believe the game bashers out there, try it for yourself, you shouldn't be disappointed overall...put in some hours...it is intense.
Summary: Shame on you poor gamers! This is a satfying, great racing game, ready to test your skills. Every turn around the corner reveals new secrets, amazing graphics, and sweet sounds. Awesome worlds, to satisfy your racing needs. You just have to play this game, to believe it's racing power, and if you played it, and hate the game, either you played it for 5 minutes, or are just a bad gamer/newbie.
I admit, the movie's pod racing was better. Of course it was, that's obvious, but this game has just complete racing speed, any racing game gamers wants. Exciting speeds, new podracers, new secrets to unlock, that will just keep you playing for hours!
The multi-player is suspenseful and exciting, and gives you the chance to beat your loser friends, who brag about how they're going to 'waste' you. Ha! My older friend is a racing game expert and said he's going to leave my pod racer in the dust! I beat him, and his pod racer exploded three times, and laid in the dust! That was sweet!
This game takes a bit of time to master, but in my opinion it's defintley worth it. This game might be the best racing game the nintendo 64 has ever seen! Cruisn' USA has nothing on this game!
Summary: Episode 1 the movie was pretty good but I didnt think this game would be this good too! The expansion pack made the graphics awsome, and sound was crystil clear (unlike my spelling).

Summary: When I purchased Star Wars Episode 1 Racer, I did not know what to expect. I simply saw that it was $10, so I picked it up. I think that it was a great purchase, for I have already spent hours playing this game. Racer has many features that make it attractive. The racers are very unique, and the ships are great to look at. The tracks, however, are probably the best thing of this game. They have some of the best landscapes that I have ever seen and offer some tremedous challenges. This is a great game.

Summary: This is a fast paced game with characters like Anakin Skywalker trying to get the Gold in the Paud Races. There are also many cheat charcters like Sebulba. Some of the many different characters have different pauds. You can also go to shops and buy parts to make your paud move faster, cool faster, and have better turning capabilities. All in all you can make you paud one fast mean machine.
Gameplay:
The controls are easy to move the pauds you just use the analog stick. The A and B buttons can be used as various things, like breaking. The C-Buttons I don't use them for anything really in this game.
The R, L, and D-Pad have no use to me also.
Graphics:
HOHOHO!!! Merry Christmas!!! This is what Nintendo gave us for Christmas. Great Graphics!!! They are awesome in this game. The pauds and characters are extremely detailed. Also when you are buying parts the parts and background sceneries are very well detailed. The pauds despite moving fast there are no blends on you television screen.
Sound:
Repitive somewhat and also gets somewhat annoying. But some of the sound that the pauds make can be intriuging and make you want to go faster when you really would overheat and then you hear it the explosion. Those are some of the types of things that can happen in this game.
CLOSING STATEMENTS:
Overall this game is worth buying and fun to play. If you can find it for about $40-$60, then it is cool to buy. WELL WORTH IT!!!
