EXTREME -G, N64 -review.
1 of 1 found this helpful I remember getting this game for my N64 years ago, as i admid being a big fan of futuristic racing games... I also recall my disapointment when it comes to Extreme -G not to even mention it`s sequel XG2. I don`t know if this thing called framerate can make the game, but it will certainly break the game when it moves contstantly something like only 0 -20 FPS.
But, when i got to play thirt part of the series on GameCube that run 50 FPS, it was clear to me that i needed to take another shot with N64 -versions. But this time on NTSC/USA -versions, rather that those expensive poor amusing left over -versions that are called PAL -versions.
That was a wise move, in fact so wise that i will never ever have to have a bad purchase because of the poor framerate, boarders, ugly color palette, lowered resolution, rised price tag, ect...
Now, i have my Extreme -G, amazing Wipeout beater that runs constantly silky smooth 30 frames per second!
Ok, enough about version differences, but be aware that if you chose PAL, you`ll get 99% of time inferior versions from all games!
So, first Extreme -G game, the cult -classic that was released only on Nintendo 64 console, courtesy of the fact that on year 1997 there were no other format available that could run so technically demanding game than this 64 bit console.
Amazing Forsaken -style lightning effects and weapons are shown all the time while driving thru courses wildest ever seen on any game at the time. Not only are special effects impressive, as is the sense of speed when you race on extremely detailed courses full of textures that are well ahead of their time and whitness life in form of sun, smoke, lava, fog...
Originality sets Extreme -G apart from any other racing game, futuristic or not.
For example, some of the ideas found in games like Zelda: OOT, were done here first, so understandably it´s incredibly hard not to recommend this game or it`s successors.
Actually, Extreme -G3 that was done years later still seemed fress, while being nearly the same game as this, despite the lack of fogging effects on that title.
As you would expect, there is no pop -up or drawn -in found in Extreme -G, and while some may say so what a big deal, -it`´s still achievesement when you consider that this game has same quality visually as Star Wars: Racer, game that was released years later and supported memory expansion pak. And yes, you can see behind the fog if you look carefully...
All in all, graphically Extreme -G is a thrill, not only because the quality, but cuz the course desing is on league of it`s own, and we haven`t even mentioned about slick presentation of the menus despite having some controller pak oddities...
Sound is techno, as usually on Wipeout -style racers, but unfortunately quality is not up to the par set by Tetrisphere. Bigger cartridge would have helped...
But, we simply can not deny the fact that this is unique racing experience with surprisingly many courses, even if the playing control is later been surpassed by Wipeout 64 and of course Nintendo`s own F -Zero X.
Truht is, that at the time of the release Extreme -G was the best futuristic racing game ever made, and if anything that is high recommention...
Game has three (3) sequels that are also awesome, but your collection will never ever be
complete without the first one, that sold around million copys for a good reason...
Absolutely must buy for anyone who enjoys fastest racing games

N64 -game: World Driver Championship
2 of 2 found this helpful I haven`t got this particular title yet, but i owned same game few years ago. It`s a driving game similar to popular "Gran Turismo" with elements and features seen on some Toca -racing games as well as even "Ridge Racer" -games.
Actually, it`s a bit better than "GT" and certainly better than "GT64", albeit being lesser known game.
-Everything in "World Driver Championship" is as good if not better than other similar games released during late 90`s.
Some peoples did not like this game very much... Reasons might be rock music that is off -beat style, or perhaps heavy handling that is satisfying, but certainly unforgiving and even spinning on sharp corners where you need to turn while driving really fast. -These aren`t faults, but they are things that you either like or dislike.
Everyone will however like those hi -resolution graphics it has and impressive replays to watch. Also great career -mode, loads of teams and even more cars.
Great little gem is this racer that is rarely even seen sale anywhere as it has addicting potential so high, that every spring i miss this particular game as i remember how great experience it once was for me.
-Highly recommended for serious racing fans who love to have some challenge!

Shenmue 2 (S2) XBOX -version spoiler free text review..
1 of 3 found this helpful When S was released for now faded away Dreamcast-console,it got mixed review for a good reason.While it showed just how far technology had come in terms of building advanced and delailed playing enviroments with full of life,at the same time it proved how much work was still to be done to fully immerse players so that gaming would not feel like only a movie with some playable battles.It was like not keeping a promise,but claiming that the best was still yet to come and actually pointing out some of the highlighs.On some respect,Zelda games are still ahead of S as a RPG,despite having kind of inferior realization,if you know what mean.When building a game that is practically same as reality,it is going to be somewhat depressing!Personally I have played more enternaining RPGs than S,like already mentioned one.This is due the fact that some other RPGs offer far more choices instead of one path to follow,and while on S you could do small little things like buy a can of soda,you could rarely do any long term difference what so ever to anything.Same is true with the reality,but then again we play games because they tend to offer other things.It also felt,that nothing interesting sadly ever happened outside the cut-scenes."On-Rails Role Playing Real-life Simulation" is what S was and will always remain,and that alone made it as "boring" as real-life as you even had to go to work nearly every day to earn some cash!Some peoples hated it for that while others loved real-life alternative,or "Virtual Reality" as it`s usually called.Reality where absolutely no one changes their clothes despite how many months you spent there,for example.OK,admitedly S was way too ambitious for it`s own good,but it still managed to do most of the things that it did right and that is why it was success it is.But it has to be said,that if you can not do one single thing that the games story requires you to do,-finding Lan Di,you are going to be disapointed.Unfortunately,first game was released only as a movie clip as a part of the saga on the XBOX version of the S2,but i recommend to try that on SEGA`s console.What made things even worse,is that not only is it missing,second game is only port of the DC-version,but instead of giving Japanese speech you get English only,that is disapointment for fans as USA customers particulary has no option to even purchase DC-version instead,that is available on EU and Japan.This all means that XBOX-owners get more or less dumped down version,as you can not even use your existing game saves from the first game.However,it`s still nice to get even something from the legacy of DC,but it`s still true that these games shine differently on it,and should played on that machine.Having said all that,you might think that i absolutely hate S-games!That is not true,as this "V.F RPG" is still as close to combining movies and games together to "interactive movie" as any game has ever been.Period.Some efforts like Bouncer,or Berserk,not to even mention FMV-games just fail short when compared to S2 that really delivered what the first game only promised.It`s not only the story,it`s the Chinese culture that is so well presented on it.This is the game that is full of beautiful moments,things to explore,strong characters,captivating story of growing as a person,exiting battles,professional cutting edge biggest budget realization.-List just goes on.These as still unique games & get high recommention!I can hardly wait for Shenmue 3.GO BUY IT!
