Thank you for watching! What are your thoughts on anti-gravity racing in recent times? Any particular games already released that you like to play or maybe an upcoming release you're looking forward to?

Wipeout will always be my favorite AG racing game ever

Don't forget GRIP: Combat Racing. Functions very similar to an AG racing game and half the craft are AG (other half have oversized wheels, all craft can function upside down too). Had a lot of fun with that one. VR supported too, but apparently is a little queasy with flipping too your roof all the time.

I've tried them all but BallisticNG is the king of AG Racing Games hands down. Great gamplay, lots of cool tracks, magnificent atmosphere and old school electronic music. You won't be disappointed!

The Queen: F-Zero The King: Wipeout The Knight: Redout

Very nice video here, and I agree. Things are getting better for anti-gravity racers. Though I would say, 2024 just might look pretty good too. Super Pilot and Phaseshift are both Early Access right now, but continue F-Zero and Extreme-G's styles respectively. Aero GPX, one of the anticipated titles is set to launch this month next year, VoidSpeed Outlaws and Ripshot are two other games who are still being worked on. There's also Galaxy's Extreme on Steam as well. Some of the games I brought up may not launch in 2024, but those are some of the others that I know are in development.

wipeout from Psygnosis will always be my favorite. Its more then nostalgia I just adore the artistic style that studio had. The music was spot on, the artistic image of those games had such a good feel to them as well. Feel that the games just wernt the same after Wi3out although Fusion was good fun.

What is really needed is for an AG racer to be built from the ground up as a spectator friendly eSport. If that was successful then we would see a whole lot more AG racers.

Aero GPX definitely deserves some recognition. If Nintendo isn't going to make a new F-Zero, the fans will make their own!

Nice to find a YT channel that cover futuristic Anti-Gravity racing games since are my thing (well racing games in general but the AG genre is my favorite), specially since F-Zero GX is my personal favorite game of all time (along with Extreme-G and WipEout HD Fury in second place). Nice video by the way, it's great to see some titles covered which actually I played various of them but still there are some missing titles like: Radial-G: Racing Revolved: It was released back on 2016 but it was overshadowed by Redout, lol!, it's a very good game with neat music on it and is available on PC and PS4. Ion Driver: A glorified tech demo game exclusively on PS4 which is kind bad and sadly it had potential of be a F-Zero like game. Super Pilot: A nice F-Zero X style game with the option of an editor for create tracks on it, similar to the F-Zero X Expansion Kit on N64DD, it's available only on PC. Cosmic Challenge Racing: A free-to-play game available on mobile (Android and iOS), it's a decent AG racing game but sadly it has various problems of track's design, forced motion sensor gameplay and like almost every f2p game: tons of microtransactions..., at least a good aspect is that it can be played offline.

When they released the Wipeout bundle I got so excited because I thought it would include older games from 97 :(

i dunno how old your vid is but there is ballisticng out there and its basically what we could have got if wipeout XL or 3 got a remaster, and its a glorious, brilliant old school AG racing mechanics

Fast RMX surprised me the most back when I bought it in the Switch launch window. Outside of some annoying stage hazards the stage variety and sense of speed are INSANE for a portable device. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun AG racer for the Switch.

You were right, now we have the new f zero 99

2:30 "and we also have season challenge to look forward to!" heh

Love the idea of the channel.

And now, out of effing nowhere, F-Zero is finally back.

This was actually very helpful, thank you.

I can't remember the name of a game i saw on YT once, but i wonder: do you have any ideas of it? The game was a space racer, where first place drew the track behind where they went. First place had flight controls and could bend and twist the track however they pleased, even being risky and attempting to go close to environments to create hazards, or making swift turns twists and bends to mess with the people behind them. Last i remember, first place gets points for staying ahead. I don't remember if making someone behind them crash in the race counted too. I also remember seeing someone literally fly off the edge of the track because 1. They were closer to first place and had less time to see the track ahead, and 2. First place did a sudden downwards bend then twisted and turned left, suddenly sending the other player right off the edge. I really really want to remember this game, it was so unique and intense of a pvp racer.

I really hope that Redout 2 gets more content, right now it deserves a lot more than it has. Admittedly though, I worry on account of the fact that the original Redout has gotten a patch more recently than Redout 2

I dont know where else to ask, trying to find a game that we had, most likely on playstation. It was racing, where you could travel up walls and down the other side with out crashing, it was space like.

Imp, nothing tops Wipeout. Why? Someone dies from swallowing a balloon at a children’s tea party in the lore.

Is the Extreme-G series not considered AG Racing games. I'm just wondering because nobody talks about this old series in that context. Sure, the vehicles are futuristic motorbikes not hovering over the ground, but the track design is very similar. Anyhow, I would like to see a squeal to XGRA.

BaltisticNG, Wipeout, Redout, Pacer, Grip, Fast RMX, F Zero and so many other great games. I wish we would get more releases. Such a blast to play.

fantastic video I am happy to see this genre some love also can you do a list of the best anti gravity racers out now?

great video man, i like the updates you gave about what games there are since I'm not great about looking for them myself

I think you forgot about grip; a wonderful rollcage successor

As someone who's played AG-R games since Micronaut One on the ZX Spectrum, I'm pretty hopeful for the future. Rumblings of a WipEout film, BallisticNG getting continued support, Super Pilot doing good things, WipEout Phantom Edition holding up the "smaller project" banner and a possible re-launch (though I'm a little sceptical of the motives) for Pacer. Now, if Sony could get their finger out and release the WipEout series on PC!

Well, the apparent success of F-Zero 99 might help bring AntiGrav back into the spotlight. I've always enjoyed the idea of a pseudo sim anti-grav game, like Assetto Corsa Competizione, but Wipeout. You'd have to speculate with much of the tech and physics, but that merely gives more room for manouvre as far as ensuring good gameplay.

This is the type of racing game I love but am so terrible at it that I give up before getting anywhere in the game.

Man I love AG racing! I'm currently even working on my own little AG racer :D

We just got F-Zero 99 which is the first new F-Zero in 20 years so maybe we'll get a new one very soon

WO:OC VR was my 2022 don't know why I waited so long to try the VR mode. Amazing! I am a better pilot in VR too. Took a while to adjust to motion sickness though but after a while it went away.

Pacer is a tough one for me. On the one hand there's a lot to like about it - I really enjoy the focus on skill/strategy over randomization with the weapon/tuning loadouts, but on the other hand some of the campaign and mode designs make absolutely no sense, such as Destruction mode still having cooldown timers on the weapon pickups meaning you can't even fire off a shot because everyone in front of you is hogging them at the start of the event. On PC, BallisticNG is the daddy IMO. It is WipEout in all but name, with a choice of both PS1 and post-PSP style physics, constant free and paid updates and full mod support. There is a metric ton of ships, tracks and new event types available for download. It is the ultimate AG sandbox and I can't recommend it enough.

My only regret about choosing an Xbox over a Playstation was losing access to the Wipeout franchise. I hope that if the series is resurrected we can get a multi-platform release, which will help develop a healthy and competitive community.

I'm surprised I haven't heard of most of these games since I love futuristic racers. But it seems like most of them have mixed or only mostly positive reviews. Which is a shame, because despite there being a lot of AG games coming out now, it seems like they're mostly struggling to hit the mark or find success. And those that do actually land right (like GRIP, which was an absolute ball to play) are pretty much dead now. Besides Redout 1 and 2, it actually feels like the AG scene is struggling more than ever. I think I came out of this video feeling bleaker than when I went in lol. Thank you for the content though. I'll still keep my hopes up for something great on the horizon.

Considering the success Nintendo had reviving Metroid after such a long time, you'd think F-Zero would be worth at least a shot from them. But damn I'd kill for a new podracing game. One where you could construct your own custom pod would be incredible.

I backed Aero GPX and have both XF Xtreme Formula and Deathgrip in my sights as well. The future of AG Racing looks bright.

Every year has been a good year for AG racing since BallisticNG came out tbh.

Im an indie developer trying to produce an anti gravity racer inspired from sodium 2 from playstation home. Hopefully I'll be able to master coding aspect soon as I already do animation/modeling.

Redout 2 - ещё один шаг в сторону F-Zero! 😏👍🔥

4:51 feel free to use any of my BallisticNG videos as examples of slightly above average gameplay. I am working on switching all of my videos to creative commons license so they are redistributable or whatever they mean by that. Im also working on recording in higher quality, and im trying to improve my skills

You weren't wrong, but you had NO idea. :D Have you played XF yet? It's only on Steam. It's all over, F Zero can retire now. That game is INSANE!!! and it's only got a demo out at this point and time. This game is made by the creator that made Spark the Electric Jester, so you know this dev know his speed and precision. The game just oozer F Zero, but better.

I don’t care what everyone else thinks I love high speed of anti gravity racers Redout 2 might be my favorite control scheme layout

I have tried a demo for a game called Aero GPX. I really like it, you should give it a shot. (I'm also a big F-ZERO fan.)

BallisticNG is fun until I wanted to platinum everything in the higher speedclasses. Thats when potholes I didnt notice before start to appear and make it impossible to get platinum. Unless I study the entire tracks and memorise where they are. But if you raise the front you slow down too much too. Thats when I uninstalled and never looked back. I mean, at least make em obvious and not as frequent. Redout 2 looks really good, gotta give that a try. First one felt a bit rough. Great sense of speed. Playing Wipeout XL(2097) right now, still my favorite. Soundtrack, atmosphere, the sounds, theres nothing like it

And now we got f-zero 99

I worry about Wipeout coming back. What can it do to add anything that isn't already being done? It needs to do something big to prove it is the king of AG.

Those modes in Redout 2 are still "Coming soon". The online mode seems to be dead here on ps5. Do you know if the developers still plan on releasing those modes?

Better add F-Zero 99 to the list

Super simple but NewoZero is a homebrew racer for Wii.

Hey 👋 I'm a AAA game dev and I'm working on a ag racer game in my free time as a personal project I'm thinking about making a dev log video some time soon

Hovercars 3077 is 90 cents in steam until 24 oct

i didnt even know this was a genre

Wipeout and F-Zero are very different games in my opinion, the cramped tracks and low speeds of Wipeout do not scratch the F-Zero GX itch at all for me.

I platted redout 1 and loved that game. 2 I kinda got stuck after I unlocked the cloud racetracks.... I dont know what it was but 2 felt so much more difficult.

I just wish there were more concentration on believable physics and that the developers would stop being fascinated with telling us we're going "1000" kph. We're not. The scale is wrong. So: Believable speed and physics. Last, personally, I'm not really into weapons, so I'd say any game that offers weapons should also allow us to turn them off for pure racing.

Extreme g my fave

I was just playing trickstyle

Not sure if it strictly qualifies as AG but hope Extreme-G (N64) makes a comeback or a new game with the same concept. You could pretend you were in one of those TRON bikes or Kaneda racing through the streets of Neo-Tokyo 😄

You cant forget star wars pod racer.

My favorite is redout 2💥💫

At 5:24 you mention that PS4 *and PS5* owners can enjoy the WipeOut Omega Collection. I've tried to install Omega Collection on my PS5 (from the online store) but it says it's not available. Can you please confirm whether Omega Collection is in fact playable on PS5? I would LOVE to play this series again (without picking up a PS4).

No love for Jet Moto?!

Hai everyone, can someone pls, help me find a ag racing game. I had it on my pentium 4 back in 2000s, it had some shooting mechaniks, different power ups etc. There was a career mode, after each race you earned some money to buy stuff and vehicles. Ass i recall it the name was big like 5-10 letters, but, im not shure) Game was in full 3d, no sprites. Pls leave your thoughts in comments, i will remember the game only when I see it

At this point it's gonna take something big to get Nintendo to make another F-Zero game.

Redout 1 is god tier Redout 2 is amazing Wipeout omega collection is incredible The other games mentioned i find to be poor knock offs.

What game is at 5:02? Thanks!

Bro wich is best, fast rmx or redout2?

you know why you havent heard of many agrs? Distance is where they all are

Extreme-G 64 💟

lets also not forger aerogauge 64 grew up on that one

why didn't you make a video about mobile games?

Eh, Redout 2 was a disappointment after coming from and loving the first Redout. Environments somehow bounce between having too much going on and not enough, and there’s a weird difficulty issue where you’re either struggling to stay out of last or far ahead of everyone else. I just didn’t find it fun, which is sad because the original Redout is GOATed. I’m still waiting on and praying for an Xbox port of Ballistic NG

This is gonna be the worst year as Ballisticng NX Edition was cancelled, thanks to Unity's new pricing

ballisticng

The biggest gripe i have with all these games exept f zero is the lack of opponents. Races with only 4-8 opponents gets boring imo. No matter if its on or offline.

Redout 2 sucks in comparison to Redout 1, as a long time player of racing games I find redout 1 much more enjoyable than redout 2 especially since redout 2 doesn’t allow for classic controls that Redout 1 has built in, you cannot achieve the control scheme with the rebinds, also the game disrespects long time players of redout 1 by forcing you to play the tutorial, it is a step backwards and an insult

disagree, apart from the redout games all the others for PC look like complete garbage and dont play well at all

I wish I had a playstation for Omega Collection 🥲. BallisticNG is great (almost too much content!) and FastRMX on the switch actually looks very good
