9) Star Wars Episode 1: Racer
Recommended Videos
There weren’t many good things to come out of The Phantom Menace, but that totally awesome pod racing scene was definitely one of them. As it turns out, speeding across obstacle-ladened courses in all manner of whacky hovering vehicles also made for a pretty sweet video game too. So sweet, in fact, that it went on to become the best-selling sci-fi racer of all time, recording a whopping 3 million units sold.
Yet, Racer’s success wasn’t just because of Star Wars hysteria — it’s a very good racing game, sporting gameplay as smooth as a baby Rancor’s bottom. Additionally, several tracks spread across Tatooine and beyond, in combination with the ability to play as characters other than Anakin, meant Racer was brimming with content.
