1) INTRODUCTION
***************

Welcome to the future.  It is the year 2080 and extreme racing is here to stay.
This the 4th title in the futuristic Extreme-G Racing games.  The first 2
appeared on the Nintendo 64 and number 3 appeared on the Playstation 2. XGRA
is available on all 3 next generation consoles.

From the reviews I have read about this game, they are all the same on each
system apart from the load times and a few graphical touches.  The version
this FAQ is based on is the X-box.  It would have been the Gamecube version,
but it isn't available in Australia as yet.

As I beat this game in just under 5 hours in my first sitting, I am going back
through it again writing this FAQ and trying to better my score as I only
beat the required overall points by 12, which is cutting it a little fine to
say the least.

Overall it is a fun game, and if you don't think it's fast in the first few
classes wait till the last one, your always breaking the sound barrier and
on these courses, it makes it one bumpy ride.

2) CONTROLS
***********

Left + Right - Steer
Up + Down - Control the weapon targeting
L Trigger - Air Brake
R Trigger - Accelerate
A - Fire Primary Weapon
B - Set and Fire Secondary Weapon
X - Cancel/Discard Secondary Weapon
Y - Change View
Start - Pause

The controls should be basically identical on the other consoles I'm assuming
as all the controllers have the basic set of buttons.  On the PS2, the only
difference would be:

A = X
B = Circle
X = Square
Y = Triangle


***********

With this new class, it also introduces the Contract system.  On each of the
races there is a secondary goal then just finishing first.  Complete enough
of the contracts and the team rewards you with extra weapons and gallery

Note:  Where it says a person to beat or a sign to destroy, these are based on
if you use the "Palus Team" bike as each team has different bikes they want
you to destroy.
