Any PC racing games with that F-Zero feel?

[futurefields]

USed to love playing F-Zero GX on Gamecube. The tracks are insane, is there anything like that on PC? With huge loops and ramps and insane sense of speed etc..?

Last one I can recall was possibly Star Wars Pod Racer in 99/2000'ish following Episode 1?

There might have been an EA one on Steam but I'm only seeing vague patches of memory coming through about it..... I'll take a gander.

I can't remember if F-zero was first or third player. Anyways search for f-zero on Steam for a few suggestions.

 

[Mutilator]

Maybe Trackmania?

Sonic Racing is pretty fun. Not exactly fzero, but pretty good.

 

[DeathReborn]

They may be old but maybe try Rollcage & Rollcage Stage II.

As Elcs said, SW Pod racer, I loved that game.. IT'S A NEW LAP RECORD!!!

F Zero GX is my all time favorite racing game. It's a damn shame it didn't sell better. It's brilliant. It had mind blowing graphics too, full 480p and widescreen support and 60fps throughout. It was tough as nails though!

That's the game I was thinking of from Steam EA.

Might not be quite what you want but gave me that kind of vibe when I saw it a while back.... Overwhelmingly positive reviews too.

Definitely a great game. Best on the Dreamcast or PC.

This. Sonic racing is probably the answer.

Or running F Zero in Dolphin. I do it, but needs a MONSTER CPU.

Trackmania Turbo is coming out early 2016. Its not F-zero like but you might like the crazy tracks and jumps.

 

[SpacemanSpiffVT]

F Zero is one of my fav games of all time... I might have to pull out my old Gamecube just to get some runs in.

 

[futurefields]

that game is tremendous wish more played online

 

[Oyeve]

I only have the SNES version.

 

[futurefields]

Megarace 3

old game but graphics have held up exceptionally well thanks in part to the imaginative design - like the review there says, use "quick configuration" utility in the Megarace 3 programs folder to increase resolution from default (which actually still looks pretty good)

I really liked pod racer, played it on my Mac at the time. It looked good and had a great feel.

I also still own F-Zero for SNES, I really liked that game too.

Found another one - Quantum Rush:

trailer looked good I thought

 

[DealODay]

Many games here are good suggestions,
Another one I'd suggest is Burnout Paradise

It looks like a typical game but you're trying to get from point A to point B at very high speeds while destruction happens around you and all to the sound of mozart. It's beautiful

[Zanovar]

Formula Fusion; i would however recommend you read first the uninspiring reviews. Essentially they say "nice game, but development seems to have stopped".
