Glad there's other people out there that love Velocity X like I do. It's such an unassuming game since there's a ton of hot wheels games out there. Velocity X always stood out to me as being my favorite. The idea of designing the game around how hot wheels cars are actually played with by kids rather than designing a more traditional arcade racer was a genius idea. Shame that Beyond Games shut down after releasing this game. I hope the devs when on to do bigger and better things. Great video btw ❤

I played an unfathomable amount of hours on this game as a kid. Must have beaten it over a dozen times, and definitely was my favorite Hot Wheels game that I had played. (Turbo Racing from the 90s is a very close 2nd) I've even been playing Unleashed 2, in my opinion it's definitely one of the more "realistic" games but it has just as much, if not more replayability as Velocity X.

I still remember reading Nickelodeon magazine and there was this awesome full page ad showing the cars racing down the side of a building. That's when a ps2 with velocity x went on my Christmas list and i spent so many wonderful nostalgic hours playing it

When I was a kid, I thought of a hot wheels idea involving max, Ryan from Stunt Track Challenge and another going up against Otto and his army of robots. Racing on different tracks in a different dimension

@Wassup_bruh So, it would be a follow-up to Velocity X when Otto escapes. One year later, Otto finds a way to travel across different dimensions to gain ultimate power. He creates an army to end the world. His lieutenants are the bosses from Velocity X. Dr. Justice recruits the best drivers to stop him. Volcanic, Storm, Water, Dessert, Jungle, City, Ice, and many many more

absolutely! I love the futuristic aesthetic, this game gives off such a 2000's vibe. I sunk so many hours playing this and getting into battles just for the fun of it; I really wish more people talked about this game because Most people who play hot wheels games tend to talk about World Race and Velocity X is a game I rarely hear about.

Oh man, what a trip down memory lane! I remember my older brother got me the PC version for either Christmas or a birthday or something in the early 00s and I had no expectations for it looking like a bargain bin game but I wasn't going to complain because I was still a kid who got a brand new game to play on my crappy Windows XP PC (which back then felt like the coolest and most high tech thing I had ever seen besides a PS2) and I gotta say, as someone who enjoyed car combat games like Twisted Metal, v8 and interstate I remember enjoying it quite a bit and then forgot it existed until pretty much now. Not gonna lie I kind of want to replay this, I definitely miss that early 00s kids game but trying to be edgy and cool but still PG sci-fi nonsense that we don't really get anymore. Thanks for the video!

This game was my childhood, major nostalgia!! Friday night in the early 2000s playing Hot Wheels Velocity X, with Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network in the background, and having Soda and Pizza. True nostalgia right here!!!!!!! My Favorite cars in the game was Arachnord, Seared Tuner(called Sho-Stopper), HW Prototype 12, Evil Twin, Twin Mill 2, Overboard 454, Flashfire, Jaded, Hyper Mite, Krazy 8s, Sol Air 64 and Power Rocket. I even played this game with my siblings and they all loved it hahahahaha.
