it's fast, oh my goodness ~ it's fast.. O.o initial impressions ~ looks promising, granted it looks to be a serious investment of time to unlock the characters; thus far, it looks to be that only 4 are available...i'll comment more as i play, definitely a worthy successor along the line of Wipeout ~ needs weapons though.. ;p

Uh, i've heard of instances of GC games just freezing up. Hopefully the room your in is cool and the vents aren't too close to something.

As for F-zero, I prefer its fast paced nature over wipeout. Weapons are cool and all, but at times that can be cheasy and F-zeros stages can be pretty intense, since it's main focus is on speed and crazy turns. Crashing into an edge is F-zero doesn't quite slow you down like in wipeout, but with no weapons in F-zero is takes a bit of times to get back into your places. You'll be slowed down quite a bit in wipeout, so it takes skill to play perfectly, but its kinda kills the rush. Too much empahsis on weapons can turn the whole battle in favor of whoever gets lucky.
