I thought it was good......WHAAAA!!! *sob*

everything bad... 'nuff said. Control is impossible and the sound might as well come from your little brother. NO REPLAY AT ALL and the mega-hard tracks make it all the more not worth your time. 45 bucks in the toilet for me, a warning for you, and a punch in the nose for the folks at Nintendo... DON'T BUY IT. End of story. I'm metaridley and you are lucky gamers who heard the truth.

What can I say......I love this game

People say addiction is a bad thing, but with this game its so sweet. The original one for the SNES really opened my eyes to fast pace racing. So I was amazed when I first played this game. Graphics: Fast, clean, and colorful. You'll wonder how they managed to fit those intense graphics into the GBA. The graphics were amazing, just what I expected from the power of the GBA. Sound: Fast pounding techno music makes racing a bit more exciting. I found my sitting back and enjoying the music without realizing that I had already lost the race. Controls: Simple four button control made driving a whole lot easiar. With my huge hands quickly hitting two shoulder buttons for hyper speed was a bit tricky. Fun Factor: I had so much fun with this game that I wasted a whole pack of new batteries just on this game. Grab a link cable and this game makes Road Trips with the "amigos" alot funner. Futuristic racing lives on with the F-Zero for the GBA.

Almost identical to SNES version (call it "F-Zero Version 1.2")

Being so similar to the Super Nintendo version aint such a bad thing, but Nintendo still hasn't come up with a worthy successor. Imagine on the GameCube the tracks could dive right into a cityscape, zoom and swerve around some buildings, before wrapping around a volcano, taking a dip in the ocean, and launching straight through the clouds( better yet thunder clouds with lightning and all), and finally sailing down the stretch into the sunset!!! But back to my review... well it's the first GBA game I bought so it can't be that bad.

A LITTLE DISIPOINTED

This game pretty much disipointed me. I saw the game in action and thought it would be a must get. I guess my expectations were too high. because the controls sucked. The worst part is the other ship catch up to you too fast even if you do nothing wrong and have full power.

A coooooooool racing game.

Even though this game is far from the original, can you blame Nintendo? They did the best they could do on their powerful little handheld, and I congratulate them on that. This is one of the coolest racing games on the GBA besides Mario Kart Super Circuit. Whatever you do, just DON'T BUY KONAMI KRAZY RACERS.

outstanding

If you like driving games and if you like them fast this is a great game for you. The graphics are good, the lighting requirements are good, the sound is good ( especially the failure signature tune ). And it's good value, a lot of tracks and quite challenging.

Maximum Velocity every bit as good as the first! (click here for more info

F-Zero Maximum Velocity is the best racing game on the GBA. With SNES graphics the game still looks sharp. Controls are rather easy to learn and all it takes is a little time to master the controls. Any racing fan will want to grab this off the shelf to ad to their GBA game collection.
