FAST Racing Neo Review

By Ryan Bates

F-Zero Room for Error.



In 2014, Mario Kart 8 beat out super-serious sports and racing titles NBA 2K15 and Forza Horizon 2 to win Best Sports/Racing Game at the inaugural Game Awards. And the Mario Kart team deserved that win wholeheartedly; after all, Mario has had eleven kart racing titles split between…

  • Stunning visuals, even when flying by at top speeds.
  • Kickin' soundtrack.
  • Game requires lightning-quick reflexes and precision movements, which will delight hardcore race fans but demoralize those who remember the welcoming gameplay of F-Zero.
  • Tracks on occasion like to throw in cheap tricks.
  • How are you going to allow the car to take damage when practically ANYTHING on the track can and will be in front of your car at any time?
  • The demanding nature of the game makes the intrinsic value of improvement actually feel rewarding.
  • At one point, I was in first place for a whole MINUTE. You all can be jealous now.

I'm currently based out of Las Vegas, NV (no I don't gamble all the time or live in a hotel on the strip) but I'm a So Cal kid through and through. I'm a Nintendiehard -- I stand by my man -- but I'm a fan of games no matter what the console, including Steam. RPGs, fighting, and action/adventure are my fortes. Give me a great story and characters any day. Call of Duty? I guess, if that's your thing. Classic Final Fantasy and Zelda? Now you're cookin' with gas!

When I'm not gaming, I like culinary adventures, moviegoing, and the Intert00bz. Ask me about my favorite web shows! I can get down on some anime, my favorite sports are boxing and baseball, and I can even get in tune with that parapsychological vibe, even though it's well-known and well-documented I'm kinda a pansy with horror stuff. (I think they get a kick out of assigning me those games for review.)

I'm also single and available, but sorry gamer girls, I play with joysticks.
