I agree night thunder is one of the worst. But it's a drift master when it comes to staff ghost.

She so gorgeous 😍

Thanks for casting light on our investigation. By sheer coincidence the Snaky Lore did manage to get a number of things right The Snaky Lore uniquely called the following things in the mainstream continuity: 1. Black Shadow wants Falcon dead due to the loss of a minion (F-Zero X never said why Black Shadow wanted Falcon Dead-it took GX to confirm that he wanted Falcon dead due to the loss of foot soldiers 2. There are underground (illegal) races (This was confirmed when Deathborn claimed to be the grandprix champion of the underworld-as of 2020 we got confirmation that the term "underworld" meant criminal underworld not hell) 3. There was a "pilot school" of sorts (Baba's profile says he was recruited by "F-ZERO Pilot Selection Committee" and that his machine was built by the "F-Zero Execution Project Committee’s Pilot Training School’s Machine Workshop)" While not the same pilot school of the Snaky Lore which was allegedly run by the Arrows, the Snaky Lore did correctly predict that a pilot training of some sort did indeed exist. With respect to the anime, the snaky lore was correct by coincidence on two points 1. Falcon was rumored to be part of something called the "Internova Police Force," (a similar idea was used in the anime where he was a cop before he embraced the identity of Falcon) 2. Super Arrow uses his bird to talk to Mrs. Arrow (this idea was used verbatim in the anime)

Which episode does Gomar and Shioh appear in?

He’s one of the 2 characters that’ll refuse an autograph The other being Deathborn

The black bull is my favorite vehicle because of the cockpit placement

And then Star Fox references F-Zero again by being dead for years

He has a huge grudge against samurai goroh

His voice kinda reminds me of Henry the Octopus from the wiggles He has a very shaky voice

These guys are weird

Plot twist those two ‘engines’ at the front are actually just the yellow paint shown in the later versions.

A really good video, thank you for taking the time to go through all these machines! One thing that really annoys me about GX in general is that several custom parts, all in gold in this video, are seemingly unnatenable in the base game. I really wanted to create the "Gladiator" from your recommendation but can't due to the fact that the gold parts are, stupidly, inaccessible. 😫

easy? dude I have to use speedrunning tactics to barely clear gold on THE VERY FIRST ONE. WTF is wrong with you?

I believe i remember making a vehicle so bad, it could not beat any GP on Expert no matter what i tried. Or even get top 10... I remember putting a vehicle with low acceleration and low speed together. I fell behind so fast on so many courses, there was no way to recover anything... The only thing i remember is going by the stats of Low acceleration and low speed, and go from there. Even if the stats arent accurate.

Thank you so much for this video, i recently beat fzerox on master, and just got this game. I already learned that a lot of the stats are lies, and was looking for exactly this

C8 is ridiculous well now I know it's possible.

Thank you for this video, really well researched and enjoyable! Ive been playing GX recently, its become one of my favourite games ever, but i must admit it is a little frustrating that the majority of the stats in the game are inaccurate, and you have to try each machine individually to truly get a feel for them. My personal favourite machine is the Rainbow Phoenix, handles beautifully and is great all round, and least favourite is the Night Thunder, for the same reason as you said here in that its too unstable and annoying to use!

I think there's a much easier solution. There's another game with vehicles that behave much like f zero racers and star fox arwings. Mass effect. Id reckon the element zero drive core and the g diffuser system are the exact same thing. F zero universe vehicles could only orient themselves based on local gravity with the tracks themselves having a magnetic field to simulate gravity to let the machines anchor to. Explains everything. Plus why they don't adhere to other surfaces, and why civilian roads are still very much like ours, as seen in gx story mode

Glad to have you back too. 🎉

My cousin and I were fascinated with named custom machines back in 2004 haha. Though we didn't have much patience and only discovered a handful. I used the Fantasista all the time, and he loved the Dragoon. Thanks for sharing some commentary on each and every one of these, I thoroughly enjoyed it :)

Getting here after the wrong GX stats video: It seems like it applies to F-Zero Climax as well. I've been comparing performance on all machines. I still remain the same about Wild Goose: ABD instead of ABC.

I can disagree with the Wild Goose. It has a D grip for sure, but boosting is amazing, not to mention it really helps it getting near top speed.

I hope you don't consider what I am going to say cruel, but I love your intonation. I think it's just a consequence of you attempting to pronounce English as best as you are able, for which I am grateful, or that perhaps you are still a little nervous/self-conscious when recording your own voice (I certainly fulfill all those categories myself), but it has a certain quality of almost sounding exhausted - as if you just spent hours toiling to overcome the very F-Zero challenges you are speaking about and immediately leapt into recording. Thanks for the vids, man.

My boy you want a f-zero challenge try getting all the achievements on retroacheivments I managed to do it, but there is one called jumping the peak good god was that hard!

4:10 the song is by Kévin cavalin the song is ( High stakes in mute city )

What gets me is in the japanese interviews for some reason one of the lines with digiboy has mr zero slowly face towards digiboy and say *"Do you believe in god??"* like its that one fucken scene from xavier renegade angel or some shit xd

While I was also able to breeze through most of the tests in Zero Test, I definitely agree that S4 is the toughest one of them all. If I didn't learn about doing DDTs with Blood Hawk, then I would've struggled a lot more getting the flat-10 gold time.

I know this could be unrelated, but because GP Legend and Climax tie in with the anime, I feel like during dialogue, we could have had voice acting, for instance: Greg Abbey as Rick Wheeler Veronica Taylor as Jody Summer Dan Green as Dr. Stewart and Michael Chain Marc Thompson as Jack Levin, Bio Rex, and Samurai Goroh David Wills as Captain Falcon and Super Arrow Jamie McGonnigal as Zoda Lisa Ortiz as Lisa Brilliant and Mrs Arrow Eric Stuart as Black Shadow and Octoman

Welcome back! Glad to hear you're doing better.

Good to see you back. I messed with the Zero-Test since it unlocks a few of the cars, but it is much harder compared to the rest of the game when it comes to getting the gold.

THE RETURN OF THE KING

Woo!! Welcome back!!

Great to see you back

It's been forever!! How have you been, man?

I remember seeing a magazine preview about this game under the title "G-Zero". I'm not sure if that would put it before or after the "Zero Racers" title.

One of my favorite custom machines is the Frost Fox-G4 mainly for its amazing handling and high speed

Will you do more of these?

I respect the machines history, but I guess I like using machines more on personality with the character that’s interests me. I never forgot about his weird body builder ending man lol. Freaking f zero gx loves body building

The truw final race against death born.... Beat it to perfection

What’s the song

As an American who imported the Japanese version ahead of the US launch, one of the first things I noticed after the US launch was that the track names were different. As I recall, some of the names are literally taken from other tracks and switched around. Perhaps you could get a bit more clarity by looking at the Japanese track names?

And his machine straight-up looks like the Light Arwing model from Star Fox 2.

The "Maximum Velocity is actually a prequel to the series" theory seems to be a popular one when it comes to justifying the oddities of the game though another theory I also see popping up is that Maximum Velocity is a different division/class of F-Zero kind of like what NXT is to the WWE. I will admit that I think I prefer the latter when it comes to theories on Maximum Velocity but I think this game is so interesting because of how little is really know about the game's lore, even in comparison to the rest of the series (and the fact that it has a completely different roster to the rest of the series too)

At 0:51 you say "and using max speed you can actually get ???? ???? through the first lap" And I can't figure out what you say here. any help?

Lance Bass as a Formula racer,lol

1:02 You got the spanish and italian wikipedias mixed up
