F-Zero GX Speed Run: Master Mode beaten with Sonic Phantom [HD] 

He's back, faster than before and sporting a new car! The Skull returns driving the Sonic Phantom! This is a fan favorite among GX players. It's a cool design especially with the blue and white long part in the front. The spoiler is a nice touch and so are the front fins. This thing drives rather nice. The body most definitely is average. It's the same weight as the Super Piranha but has slower acceleration and faster speed. The boost is really good. Grip wise, it's a little hard to control. It's rightfully a D in ranking as going into a drift while turning will more often than not, cause you to lose control. Cornering isn't the greatest but it can still get you places. What's interesting about this one is animations. The machine only has one engine. While driving, there are *two* exhaust trails. Why? The cockpit appears to lack a means of steering yet our revived skeleton champ appears to be holding one. Dunno what that's about but good machine altogether. Another machine I used for PRSLS on master and won with.

Fun Drinking Game: Take a shot every time Black Shadow ranks in the top 6 For extra fun, take two shots if Black Shadow gets second place in the cup.

What a lovely first corner.

The skull and sonic phantom is my favourite machine and pilot

Really impressive recollection of the locations of all the boost strips, especially on the cylinder and pipe tracks. Thanks for sharing!

I'm gonna throw out some thanks this way. This particular video finally got me to try Master Mode after like a decade of owning the game and not even daring. Cheers to you and the Sonic Phantom for being so awesome. Un-cheers to the Fat Shark for being so ridiculously OP the only way I could make it through Diamond Cup was picking it -- so I wouldn't have to comete with it.

My number one main right here, fast when it's not boosting, boosting feels great, controls good, can take hits, and a awesome pilot, the list is almost endless. Only downside is that mts is not good, but this car is perfect for me.

It's also funny that in the interviews, when you choose the nice machine phrase, he says that his machine has amazing boosterS, when the machine only has 1 engine exhaust...

This game is stupidly hard. Even to this day I've never unlocked the last cup.

Sonic Phantom was my favorite vehicle in X for the N64. I gotta get around to playing GX one day.

You noticed that Sonic Phantom has one engine, but 2 engine flames come out? In F-Zero X, it only had one engine flame. The machine is really an OP one if you set it on max speed.

21:44 i'm in awe of how well you took that tunnel without sliding

I like the sound it's booster makes.

A little off topic, but I wonder if Twin Noritta's boost is better than Fat Shark's. Maybe I'll collect some data on it over spring break to see if that's the case. Then again, maybe I'll finally make that F-Zero UXB WAD you've been asking for as well, haha

I love this machine.

I WANT TO GET OFF MR BONES WILD RIDE

Do you think you could make a compilation of all 41 pilots at the winning run celebration?

Piccolo, what do you think is the best machine? I've been meaning to get back into F-Zero GX and want to know which ship to use the most. Is it really based on tracks, or does it depend on your own liking?

I will never understand why they animated two boosters onto the model of this machine with one jet. It's ridiculous looking.

he got rekt at the end in serial gaps!

3:48 And then The Skull died. Again.

So far I'm kind of leaning towards the Fat Shark and Sonic Phantom (the former because of what you said and I've seen you use it well, and the latter because I've heard some great reviews about it and you seem to have kicked some ass with it).

Weird fact: Sonic Phantom's boost uses two when it has only one.

THE GREAT PAPYRUS! IS THE GREAT F-ZERO RACER.

I'm wondering how accurate the speed in this game is.. you're supposed to got at speeds that sometimes come close to 2000km/h.. those are fighterjet levels of speed (or even faster). If you'd be actually going that fast in the game, would it even be playable..? I'm wondering if the actual speed you're going at is much lower than 1000+km/h, just to make the game actually playable..

I always wondered why this ship has only 1 engine but 2 visible engine exhausts...

Stage name “green planet” Mr bones flight jacket also turns green. *coincidence??* *I think NOT!!!*

Best game in the Galaxy 🤟🤟

Good to know, thanks!

Why u sometimes set off the normal boost? Does is make sense? (sry for bad english)

Guys, I have a question ! The Sonic Phantom have one engine, but we see two ''contrails'', ''flames''... Was it a bug ?

Sonic phantom is my best racer and I always play with him unless I do story mode but my favorite pilot is Lily then him and I have always found f zero gx as the best in the series and have played it so many times I have 25 memory cards with 100% data including custom machine parts and the staff ghosts etc.

Can someone explain why people kill the thrusters? I've seen lots of people do it. They'll be going fast and then kill them like at 1:44

o corno deixou o som altíssimo, quase fiquei surdo

*Compete. ENGLISH OF ME VERY GOOD ME SWEAR.

The Papyrus jokes are too strong with this character, seriously the human race can be great but shit.

Yea, I don’t like this ship either It slides around WAAAAYYYY more than it should

:))

IMO Game liar, the worse the boost, the higher the top speed (Machine with Boost E has low Boost but high Top Speed like Black Bull). I always imagined this way around. Hence why Twin Noritta or Golden Fox have Boost A. Same with Fire Stingray. Boost D but higher Top Speed. Machines like Sonic Phantom, Hyper Speeder etc should have Boost D or E.

Fantom road, it's so easy to finish 1st. I don't know if you already watch a spectator mode to a cpu in master mode but it's easy to do what he do.
