F Zero X is said to be the greatest racing games of all time but I played it for the first time and it looks worse than your average 32x game.

Yoshis Island is another one heavily overhyped. It doesn't even compare to Pugsley scavenger hunt which is almost never mentioned here.

And it's not even like N64 games couldn't look good, F-Zero X simply had dirt poor visual design. May have been excusable for a launch title, but it released in fucking 1998 a few months before Wipeout 64.

It was released in 1998 with a DD upgrade and it still looks worse than a 32x racer.

You know full well the graphics are made less complex so that they could fit all those cars on screen, with that speed, and get a smooth 60 FPS. For the time it was great from a technical standpoint and obviously the gameplay holds up.
You want me to say it nigger? Alright here goes. It looks like 100% complete shit, probably the worst looking game ever made. Happy now? Even if I really thought that it wouldn't change my opinion of the game since the gameplay still holds up. Maybe if the graphics were actually a detriment to the gameplay, but they aren't

Fzero x is a good racing game with basic graphics. The best on the n64? Maybe if you like the mechanics of the pits and the turning and the way courses are and the difficulty and the vehicular combat. I wouldn’t say its bad in any case. Its ok if you like wipeout better, lots of people do.

>> No.7727415

Fzerox impresses with a smooth framerate at first, leaning on its cutesy rock guitars and sensation of speed to keep it interesting but I'm gonna be honest the illusion wears off after 30 minutes. The tracks aren't fun to race thru, they can't escape how similar they all feel to one another. I never feel a unique challenge or sense of trepidation over what certain courses present. There's like a few gimmick gag moments where racers fly off the track and die but beyond that I'm not planning my approach, securing the optimal line against someone else, using weapons or any satisfying interactions with the opponents. At the end of the day I walk away from fzerox seeing it as nintendos brag, "the 64 can totally do 60fps!" And I can say i totally don't care and I'll play sega rally instead.
