Pros: some good graphics, star wars, good simulation, imaginative Cons: mostly bad graphics, bad music
I think almost everybody remembers the famous Pod Racing scene from Star Wars: Episode 1, where Anakin totally kicks Sebulba’s butt. Well, what looks like his butt.
Now, Lucas Arts and Nintendo bring the Pod Racing hit to the N64 with...
Pros: Excellent Graphics and sound Cons: No replay value
The Plot
You must be the best pod racer in the galaxy! To do this, you can choose from a bunch of pod racers to start, earn cash for the races that you win, and upgrade your pod racer.
Pros: Good graphics Cons: Poor sound, too easy too beat, little replay value, and no battle mode.
I managed to get this game at Amazon.com for only $10 and I'm glad that I did not pay much more for it. The game LOOKS good visually and it does have a few good racing tracks, but overall I must say that I am disappointed.
Pros: nice graphics, some features Cons: few internal changes from a standard racing game, little replay value
A true battle of good vs. evil (and after than we'll get to the game)
Ah yes, Starwars has long embodied the epic struggle and have been idolized by young Jedi Knights. I don't mind spending 4 bucks to see the movie. I don't mind...
Pros: graphics, some sound, control is simple, kind of fun while it lasts Cons: low, low, low replay value, sound gets muffled out, not too fun...
OK, I am COMPLETELY redoing this review, because, at the time I wrote it, I thought it was very informative. I also thought this was a great game. Then I played it again. I have redone the entire review and everything, so, it's almost like a new...
Pros: fast, fun, good graphics Cons: more would be nice--more tracks, more challenges, etc
I first played this game at a friend’s house. I’ve actually not been much of a racing game fan, but after having this one tossed in my lap, I’ve found myself hooked.
Set up and getting started:
The game is easy to get started,...
Pros: Excellent graphics, high speed racers Cons: Too much money for too little long term fun
Star Wars Episode 1 Racer is an excellent game for a rental, but I wouldn't advise adding it to your home gaming library. The game is modeled pretty acurately after the latest Star Wars movie, and is a great rental for any loyal Star Wars fan.
At first Episode I racer is an addictive game. I couldn't stop playing it for about a week. Then it started getting boring and the tracks started getting nearly impossible. When it's impossible to beat it isn't very fun to play a game.
Pros: Inexpensive, Very fun racing, good graphics, lots of podracers, can buy better parts. Cons: Gets old after a while, easy to get the best pod parts, easy to beat.
I bought Episode One Racer when it first came out, and I thought it was good for a racing game (I don't normally like racing games). I like Star Wars a lot so this was a must-buy, but some things could have used a few changes.
I have never played a racing game more exciting than this one. With the option to choose from a number of different pod racers and be a number of different characters from Neva Kee to Anakin himself, you can become part of the racing action that blew up...
Pros: Not much. Exciting for a little while. Cons: Boring & repetitive.
With all of the Star Wars Episode 1 hype, I expected this game to be much better. It is quite exciting and fun for a little while, but it becomes monotonous and boring very quickly.
The game is very straightforward, and very uncreative....
The key word here is ACTION!!! This game is really good for the graphics, and for the sounds. It has some really good levels, as well as it will keep you busy. The intencity can rise, and the feeling of wether or not you win is tremendous. Definitely in...
Pros: unique racers and tracks, very high speeds Cons: graphics without expansion pack are awful, some control problems
Based on the most mind blowing scene form last years Star Wars film, Lucas Arts attempts to bring the same pod racing fun home. While the game might not be the best racing title on the market Racer does manage to be some very high speed fun.
Pros: It has really good graphics Cons: It is hard to beat it on single-player
Star Wars Episode 1 Racer is a good racing and fun game. I like to play this game. I don't have it, but my friend has it and I used to go over his house and play it all of the time. It is fun because you get to race in a pod racer at super super...
Pros: It's a Star Wars game! Cons: Hard to see where you're going
This game straps you to a pait of high-powered jet engines and takes you on the ride of your life. Compete against Sebulba as you try to beat him in the Boonta Eve Classic for the title of ultimate racing champion of the galaxy.
