    I literally don’t care that it’s star wars.

    I’m just happy to see AG racing still be alive.

    WipEout and F-Zero are gone, seemingly never to return.

        It stands for Anti-Gravity. In the late 90s and early 00s, it was somewhat of a niche genre. Basically it was a racing game where your ride didn’t have wheels.

      Prequel movie interest or opinion doesn’t matter, the first game on N64/Dreamcast/PC was incredible regardless. I replayed recently and it’s still good. Love the damage model/repairing and being able to buy used parts from the junkyard, and maybe controversial but I vastly prefer Racer handling and course design to Wipeout.

      I didn’t watch the Disney stuff at all and won’t, potentially this scratches the same itch. I hope so anyways. I couldn’t get into the PS2 sequel so it’s possible to disappoint.
