Is F-Zero X really the fastest game of all time? Probably. Is it the best? Not quite, but 
it's in the winner circle. If you have fast reflexes and a strong index finger, this is the 
game for you. The graphics aren't perfect of course (too much fog), but the reflections on 
the machines are cool. The music rocks, and the whole game just seems a step up from the 
kiddie crap that Nintendo has a habit of releasing. My only gripe is the control. If you 
turn sharply at all then you'll go skidding out of control. That's where the R and Z button 
moves come it, the drift turn. Anyway, if you like fast action, you'll like this game.

OVERALL: ******** 80%
