F-Zero : Maximum Velocity

List price:
$39.99

- For Play on Your Game Boy Advance
- Published by Nintendo
- Game Genre: Racing, Game Sub-Genre: Adventure, Action
|
Product Description
If you like blazing-fast racing games (and have thumbs of steel), F-Zero: Maximum Velocity is one of the wildest rides yet for a handheld system. Based on the famous Super NES game of yore, the futuristic F-Zero asks you to pick from a starting lineup of four pilot hovercrafts that tear across flat but hazardous tracks. Your goal: compete for first place so you can advance to the next track and difficulty level. To have any success in F-Zero, great reflexes and a memory for track detail are absolute musts. While the controls are responsive, in general the frictionless racing means that almost all cars have a suitably loose feel to them, and require skilled pilots to handle corners. Be warned that gamers with adult-size thumbs may be in for a very painful experience due to the constant mashing of the GBA's shoulder buttons. When you get bored of racing the computer, you can take on up to four opponents via the link cable--and unlike multiplayer Game Boy games, only one cartridge is needed. While F-Zero features many tracks and skill levels, beyond the simplistic (yet challenging) racing, there isn't much depth. Fortunately, the silky smooth animation and detailed graphics should keep fans of speedy arcade racers taxing their thumbs long after they've brought home the checkered flag. --Mark Brooks Pros: - Ridiculously fast-paced arcade racing done right
- Many tracks and hovercraft to choose from as you gain skill
- Graphics give a good hint of the GBA's pixel-pushing power
- Four-player racing is a blast
Cons: - Extremely painful to the thumbs of adult-size hands
- Lack of depth may be a turnoff once novelty of speed wears off

How about a little frictionless racing? F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, based on the groundbreaking game for the Super NES, puts you in the cockpit of a futuristic hovercraft racer. Using the Game Boy Advance's shoulder buttons to steer, players will slide through curves and around obstacles as they hurtle their high-speed, low-gravity racers across the finish line. F-Zero: Maximum Velocity incorporates never-before-seen tracks and vehicles into the traditional mix of speed pads and jumps. Best of all, up to four Game Boy Advance units can be networked via the separately sold communication cable for head-to-head racing.

The GBA's first kart racer is a lickety-split romp bristling with candy-colored courses, wacky weapons and manic multiplayer modes. While none of the eight competitors are household names - Castlevania's Dracula might be the most recognizable to U.S. gamers - they've all been given that cartoony look you'd expect in a lighthearted racer like this. Each has been rated for top speed, acceleration and grip, but since their ratings don't appear in the game you'll have to experiment to get a feel for each racer.
Product Description
What do video game characters do to relax after a hard day's work in the fight between good and evil? Well, in Konami's Krazy Racers, they enjoy a friendly little race. The game features characters from famous Konami games, such as Castlevania and Metal Gear, racing on 16 challenging tracks. Racers can collect coins to upgrade their karts and unlock hidden courses. The game offers four play modes (Grand Prix, time attack, free run, and mini battle) and three difficulty settings, as well as the ability to race head-to-head against a friend via the separately sold communication cable.

Product Description
Iridion 3D is reminiscent of arcade shooters such as Galaga or Gradius, except that Iridion is done in over-the-shoulder third-person 3-D. The problem is that this perspective really, really hurts the gameplay. One can only wonder how much better Iridion 3D might have been had the developers chosen a more workable point of view. Your ship sometimes blocks your sightline as you shoot, and it's extremely difficult to accurately gauge distance and depth perception. Is that a small enemy that's close to my ship (maybe even about to collide with it), or is it a large one that's farther away? Are they shooting at me or are those "shots" actually distant ships? Are those enemies or part of the tunnel scenery? Another problem is the jerky control. If you're flying through a tunnel trying to kill the bad guys, you should be able to literally fly in circles. With the Game Boy Advance directional pad, squares are about all you can manage. At least the game is extremely pretty to look at. Iridion 3D boasts one of the best graphics engines available for the Game Boy Advance, and considering the competition, that's no idle compliment. Progressing through the stages and worlds one is bombarded with beautiful scenery almost as much as enemy fire. Yes, the game looks spectacular, and it will partially appease arcade shooter fans waiting for Game Boy Advance conversions of classics such as R-Type and the aforementioned coin-ops. It's just too important to see what you're doing in a game of this type to recommend the title to anyone but the most hard-core fans of the genre. --Andrew S. Bub Pros: - Gorgeous graphics and explosions

Players fly their SHN fighters toward oncoming hordes of aliens through seven large levels. Be sure to pick up the five extra weapons along the way, each of which can be powered-up three times, to prepare for the big-boss showdowns.
