  • Summary: Sometime in the middle of the 21st century, shortly following the development of hydrogen-based power, a global treaty prohibiting the use of fossil fuels was passed which banned all motor sports. Although the world established a culture of peace and environmental preservation, people wanted a sport that would whet their appetites for speed and competition...

    Get your adrenaline fix as you race at incredible speeds in hover vehicles that slide through futuristic gravity-defying race courses enclosed in tubes... reaching speeds over 1,000 miles per hour! The future of championship formula racing is faster, sleeker, and more dangerous. You may be able to finish a race, but can you take home a championship?

  1. Tube Slider (insert sexual pun here), jumps directly to the head of the GameCube racing class, placing itself firmly in the pole position waiting for F-Zero to take it on. [Apr 2003, p.51]
  2. The competitors in Tube Slider are brutal and extremely difficult to beat. Racing using these controls is nigh impossible at first and takes a while to get used to, resulting in an unappetizing first course of gameplay.
  3. A mildly fast racing game with mediocre techno beats, unbalanced gameplay, but “wow” worthy environments.
  4. It's dog slow, with shallow gameplay and a whole three varieties of power-ups. [July 2003, p.110]
