I was born the same month GX came out, started using Phoenix as a username around 10 years ago, and the original design for the helmet in my profile was pretty close to Phoenix's helmet (minus the color). It's like he was made for me to unlock him. I just have to fix my skill issue.
I still remember it like it was yesterday. It took me exactly 2 and a half hours to beat it. I was still a kid. I literally fell on my knees and screamed "YES!" three times. Beautiful memories, as I knew I just unlocked Phoenix. 😌 There's literally nothing more satisfying than hearing that "MISSION CLEAR" coming out of your TV boxes.
Lyrics You never know if we are watching you through secret eyes and Find a place where you can hide underground Change your name and Change your face and Feel the heat around you It's the forces It's the order detective It's the forces, it's the order (Detective) I want you to feel the pressure (We keep the order) I know you can't run forever No-one moves without me saying (I'm gonna take you down) You know there's no use in fighting You never know if we are watching Through our secret eyes No place for hiding Change your name Change your face Feel the heat around you It's the force It's the order detective
It uhhh... kinda does. When boosting, Rainbow Phoenix' wings will expand outwards, a feature unique to Rainbow Phoenix, not seen on any other machine. Ever.

For me, Ch. 1 was probably more difficult that it should have been. I think it took me an entire afternoon and evening to finish this one on VH. It was a test to see if you could fine-tune your button manipulation, and not overcorrect/oversteer. I swear that sometimes when I hear this; the beginning guitar chords are either very distorted and sometimes they are not. Like when I had a CRT back in the day, sometimes the chords would come through clear and day, and sometimes not- yet I know I've experienced this anomaly on here as well.
Maybe the metal is just so loud you can't tell if it's "It's the force, it's the order" or "It's the force, it's the quota". I still believe that the word they used is quota. It makes more sense.
Definitely one of the best machines in the game, too bad he's locked behind one of the toughest challenges of the story mode, couldn't unlock him without cheating.
Nintendo is often known for their awesome gameplay, but when they make their songs they aren't the best. (Most of your favourite nintendo game songs are made by different companies) SEGA is often known for their awesome music, but aren't often praised by their gameplay. So what happens when Nintendo makes a game where they make the gameplay and SEGA makes the music? You get F-Zero GX.
