AeroGauge
AeroGauge is a 1997 racing game developed by Locomotive and published by ASCII Entertainment for the Nintendo 64. It is conceptually similar to Psygnosis's Wipeout and Acclaim Entertainment's Extreme-G; the main difference is that the vehicles in the game fly instead of hovering. AeroGauge garnered mediocre reviews, with criticism directed at its routine concept, excessive pop up, lack of weapons and power-ups, and overly high difficulty.

Where AeroGauge sits on the grid
The grid places every game in the catalogue on measured axes rather than on an opinion. This is where AeroGauge lands on each map it has the data for, with the share of the catalogue it beats on each axis.
- Year
- 55ahead of 10% of the catalogue
- Reach
- 9ahead of 64% of the catalogue
Percentiles are against the games that carry a reading on that axis, not the whole catalogue: counting a game with no figure as a zero would flatter everything that has one. How the grid works.
What readers say about AeroGauge
Reviews written by people who have played it. These are separate from the GamingPickz Score and are never averaged into it: that score comes from thousands of Steam reviews with a sample-size correction, and a handful of unverified ratings would distort it rather than improve it.
