I don't even like racing games but this one took months out of my life. I was still young enough to be all about Episode 1 and even today I give it up to pod racing as the best thing about that movie possibly excepting the fight with Darth Maul. Possibly.

The maps were eye candy with enough exploration to encourage replays and the way the pods controlled was fantastically fun. Neva Kee was by far my main with the sick control. His pod was so ridiculously responsive that you could easily slam right into a wall if you weren't careful but it felt like strapping a rocket to your ass and ****ing ruled.



Don't even care if I'm giving out too many 5/5's but this was one of my entries for a ****ing reason.
