Star Wars Episode Racer is a surprisingly fun racing game. It won't make you forget Mario Kart, but it's still a good game to pass the time. If you've seen Episode I you know you'll race the pod racers around several Star Wars racing arenas. The levels are nicely designed, the graphics are good for the time, the racing mechanics are very smooth, plus this game has an insane sense of speed that feels very similar to F-Zero or Top Gear 3000. The gameplay is very smooth and never gives you any trouble. This game has damage modeling for your pod racer, so if you scratch up against a wall too much, one of your engines will explode and you will explode and die. Or, if you crash into a wall to fast you will explode and die, but it's always fun to hear Anakin scream when he explodes. You have many different characters to choose from along with levels which really keeps things fresh and exciting. The main flaws with this game is sometimes it can get a little boring, and the graphics are dated. But if you want to play something other than Mario Kart of F-Zero for your N64, this game is definitely the fix you've been looking for.

It's an old one but it's still fun for the N64 lovers. I never got bored with it!
