[Top 100 Modern VGTunes] #094 - F-Zero X - Climb Up And Get The Last Chance
Consoles: Nintendo 64, Wii
Developer: Nintendo
Original Release: 1998
Song Comments:
The White Land tune from F-Zero X. It was quite frustrating looking for this because all the tunes have weird names, and I think that this was the last one I tried. And since I know that one would expect more to come: This is the only F-Zero tune on this list, so don't wait for more. I didn't want Big Blue X because I decided to not use updated versions of songs that are already on my Chiptunes list, and F-Zero GX has a soundtrack that, while I don't hate it, didn't make it. A Top 150 would probably have that game's themes from Big Blue and Aeropolis.
Game Comments:
I never got as much into F-Zero X as other people did - the death race in particular didn't appeal to me at all. The X cup, on the other hand, was an epic idea. F-Zero GX, however, is one of my favorite games of all time. I had the privilege of playing F-Zero AX Monster Ride in Tokyo's Sega Joypolis, which is the arcade game modified with moving cabinets (hence the name "Monster Ride"). It was probably more intense than a roller-coaster ride.
The artwork is a fan-art posted by Isaque on Jump-Cancel at http://jumpcancel.blogspot.com - the official artwork for F-Zero X is overused, so I looked for something different.
