I wish that there were more tracks, but that's a given with any racing game, especially those that entrance me the way that Extreme G3 did. Those of you familiar with this sort of game will find themselves right at home those who haven't played futuristic racers before will have a bit of a learning curve with Extreme G3, but nothing that any good videogame fan can't handle. The engine whine from your bike is damned sweet too.Īs is the gameplay.
The sound effects are spot on, and you can catch the launch of the various weapons if you listen closely enough.
Futuristic racing is one genre that I can't knock for having thumping techno beats, though, since it fits so perfectly. It fits the game perfectly, but there's nothing here that you haven't heard before-if not literally, then at least the style. The music in the game is precisely what you'd expect it to be-a mix of different techno tracks by various artists. It still looks very nice, though, as games of the genre tend to do. The textures aren't as detailed as they probably should have been the environments are detailed structurally but not graphically, which is a shame. It's a magnificent feeling, a gorgeous effect, and it's extremely cool.Īh, yes, the graphics. Indeed, when you break the sound barrier, you can hear the snap, the screen blurs, and then you are bathed in. No other game that I've played gives you the sense of speed that Extreme G3 does. What you haven't seen is them zooming by at such blistering speeds that your head spins. There's the obligatory underwater track, the loop track, the crystal (well, ice) track, and so on you've seen them before. Yes, the environments can be quite gorgeous, but they never captivate like some of the tracks in other games of the same genre. Those who played the original games in the series will remember how bad the framerate could get no more. While Extreme G3 may not have the deep sense of style of Kinetica or the WipEout series, it makes up for it with a blazingly fast game engine.
