Fast Racing League: Review
In the future racing will evolve and phase shifting will become necessary to complete many insane tracks! So is this game going to win you over or does it crash and burn? Let's find out.
Gameplay
Fast Racing League Features 12 massive tracks set across 3 separate leagues as well as nearly 10 futuristic race cars. This game also features challenges that are set on unique courses and range from collecting items to a dangerous sprint race and will truly test your mettle! The AI in this game are challenging even on the easiest difficulties. The most unique feature and most difficult to master however is phase shifting which changes your vehicle's primary color from white to black and is used to utilise speed boosters or ramps and can even magnetise your race car causing it to ride on the underside of objects above you to pass safely across huge holes in the road! but these only work if your car is the same color as the phase shift zones e.g. a white zone will only work if your car is white!
Graphics and Music
The graphics in Fast Racing League are every bit as good as retail games like Mariokart Wii or Super Mario Galaxy and are unrivaled on the WiiWare service as you'll see detailed scenery that will blow your minds such as giant sand tornadoes or lightning on certain tracks and these are just a couple examples of the scale of this game's graphics. This game also features a remarkable soundtrack that is among the best you'll hear on a WiiWare title! Bottom Line-If you like challenging futuristic racing games that has good CPU AI,and is blisteringly hard you should definitely download Fast Racing League.

Price- 1000 Points
Score ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ 10/10
10- Perfect This game is nearly perfect, and has little if any flaws, and is a blast to play!

Cool! Think i might buy.
October 5th 2011, 3:14 pm
Hmm... this game sounds too hard... but how does the game control ? does it control like in super mario kart or like in a realistic car race simulation ? because if it's the latter, then I'm not interested...
Oh ! and I have something to post in a certain forum topic right now !

Great review Rukiafan 
October 5th 2011, 7:40 pm
if this game had online i would have downloaded it day one. But since it dosent it falls on my priorities list.
October 5th 2011, 7:49 pm
It's a wonderful game KingreX32 regardless of the lack of online play |D
October 5th 2011, 7:51 pm
I didn't find the phase shifting as difficult as making sharp turns at nearly 500 mph. The later leagues can be unbelievably challenging.
October 5th 2011, 11:25 pm
Well im not.saying its a bad game. Just that the inclusion of an online mode would give me more insentive to purchase it.Megatron2000 wrote:It's a wonderful game KingreX32 regardless of the lack of online play |D

Finally Fast Racing League gets a perfect score at a reputable website 
October 6th 2011, 12:58 am
It is a great game and deserves the perfect score mates :-)
It is one of the best racing games for WiiWare :-)

This game is so much fun and the scenery is so pretty
October 7th 2011, 1:11 pm
This game sounds like F-Zero with a hint of an arcade racing action 
October 7th 2011, 5:02 pm
Good review yet again Rukiafan
October 7th 2011, 9:47 pm
This is the best WiiWare racer yet
October 7th 2011, 10:40 pm
That statement is blasphemous. I'm sorry, but Moto Heroz is by far the best WiiWare racer on the entire service. I own both titles and FAST: Racing League is a very good racer, but it's not on the same level as Moto Heroz. And I'm sure others would agree with me, that's not just a bias opinion. (<:
October 7th 2011, 10:59 pm
But Moto Heroz is a platformer 
October 7th 2011, 11:03 pm
Correction, Moto Heroz is a physics racer w/platforming qualities. (<:

Definately agree.
I even go as far as saying MotoHeroz is not only the best racing game on WiiWare but the best racing game on Wii altogether.
In direct comparison MotoHeroz has 75 single player tracks and 30 multiplayer tracks and future DLC while FAST has only 12 tracks (maybe 16).
MotoHeroz also has online, FAST has none.
The music in MotoHeroz is much better than what I've heard in FAST as well.
And the graphics are about equal. Both have very crisp textures, smooth polygons, great design, fluid framerates, and they're visually some of the best you can find on WiiWare. But MotoHeroz is having an edge over FAST because it has much more variety, ultrarealistic physics and is much more charming.
And on a personal side, F-Zero GX (Gamecube, 2003) did everything FAST did much better 8 years ago, but yeah, it's not fair to compare a 1000MB Triple-A-Class Gamecube racer to a 40MB WiiWare title.
MotoHeroz is a clear 10/10.
FAST is still a very good 8/10.

I don't know how a WiiWare racing game can be better then this one
October 8th 2011, 1:33 pm
I'm not surprised at the great score as Shin'en is one of the most reliable developers on the Wiiware service

What an interesting sounding WiiWare racing game I might consider a buy
October 12th 2011, 1:35 pm
@XenobladeYuki You will not regret your decision
October 12th 2011, 5:00 pm
I just bought this and will probably post an unofficial impressions thread in the next few days

Hey Kain, why don't you write up a member review instead. I'm going to do one for Go Vacation. The forum is at the very bottom of the homepage.
October 15th 2011, 11:41 pm
I just tried this as a WiiWare demo.
Nice. Very nice.
Looks like it uses the same engine as Jett Rocket, which was exquisite.
Definitely going into my queue.

It's amazing how smoothly the graphics run on this considering how good the graphics are in this game |D
October 16th 2011, 1:31 pm
This game is really good for a WiiWare racer
October 18th 2011, 2:15 pm
This is Shin'en's best work yet 
October 22nd 2011, 11:11 pm
I bought this the day it was released because I knew this was going to be a rockin' good game.
October 23rd 2011, 6:55 pm

July 3rd 2012, 7:17 am
