Extreme G Nintendo 64 N64
Lovingly called XG by its developers, the game pits up to four players against each other in insanely fast cyber bike races down tracks that make Six Flags look like a golf course. There are more than a dozen magnetic tracks, bikes, weapons, boosts, loops, drops, corkscrews and jumps -- but if you had to choose only one trait that sets XG apart from the slew of other N64 racers, it's SPEED. The game is very, very, very fast. There are more than 12 weapons types, including all kinds of missiles, flash bombs, mines, laser tripwires and even a flame thrower. If you thought using Mario Kart's "lightning item" was a dirty trick, wait until you see XG's portal holes, sling shots or the "static pulse ray" that reverses your opponents controls.
