'''Riverside County''' is a [[county]] located in the southeastern part of the [[U.S. state]] of [[California]], stretching from [[Orange County, California|Orange County]] to the [[Colorado River (U.S.)|Colorado River]], which is the border with [[Arizona]]. This county is part of the [[Riverside-San Bernardino Area]], in a region of [[Southern California]] known as the [[Inland Empire, California|Inland Empire]].

Geographically, the county is [[desert]]. Most of [[Joshua Tree National Park]] is located in the county. Riverside County lies inland of [[Los Angeles, California|Los Angeles]], and south of [[San Bernardino, California|San Bernardino]]. Large numbers of Los Angeles workers have moved to the county in recent years to take advantage of relatively affordable housing. Alongside neighboring [[San Bernardino County]], it is one of the fastest growing parts of the Inland Empire. This spawned a wave of toll road construction in the area in the 1990s, starting with the addition of toll commuter lanes to the [[California State Route 91|State Route 91]] freeway, the main traffic artery to the western metropolitan area. In addition, smaller, but significant, numbers of people have been moving into southern Riverside County from the San Diego metropolitan area. The cities of [[Temecula]] and [[Murrieta]] account for 20% of increase in population of Riverside County between 2000 and 2007.

F-Zero games that utilize Mode 7: MVelocity[http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:BVLxcbIWxwsJ:guides.ign.com/guides/480123/page_12.html+f-zero+%22racing+game%22+%22mode+7%22&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=19&gl=us&client=firefox-a] (double-layer)


Developed by second-party NDCube, a company nine years younger than the game they have so lovingly restored, it does almost the same job its predecessor did for the SNES, and forms the keystone in Nintendo's top tier launch line-up. [http://74.125.45.104/search?q=cache:u0c7oCpLMrEJ:www.eurogamer.net/article.php%3Farticle_id%3D1816+site:eurogamer.net+f-zero+snes&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us&client=firefox-a eurogamer MV review]
Such famous golf resorts as [[Indian Wells, California|Indian Wells]], [[La Quinta, California|La Quinta]], [[Rancho Mirage, California|Rancho Mirage]], [[Palm Springs, California|Palm Springs]] and [[Palm Desert, California|Palm Desert]] are located in Riverside County. [[Indio, California|Indio]] is the center of an important [[date (fruit)|date]] growing region.


F-Zero, instantly became one of the defining titles for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System when it was released in 1991. ([http://www.gamespot.com/wii/driving/fzerosnes/review.html gamespot])
==History==
Riverside County was created in 1893 from parts of [[San Bernardino County, California|San Bernardino]] and [[San Diego County, California|San Diego Counties]].


Far from being just a shiny tech demo, however, it was actually one of the coolest games on the system, and one of the best sci-fi racers you could get. [http://archive.gamespy.com/reviews/december01/fzerogba/ gamespy]
The county derives its name from the City of [[Riverside, California]], christened when the upper canal of the [[Santa Ana River]] reached it in 1871.


Fifteen tracks, four cars that handled very differently, and a great stereo sound track - F-Zero was one of the best racing games available on SNES and has secured itself a permanent place in gaming history. [http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:BVLxcbIWxwsJ:guides.ign.com/guides/480123/page_12.html+f-zero+functionality+%22super+nintendo%22&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=9&gl=us&client=firefox-a IGN (guide)]
The county's population surpassed one million people in 1980 when the current trend of high population growth as a major real estate destination began in the 1970s.


;gameplay
==Geography==
According to the [[United States Census Bureau|U.S. Census Bureau]], the county has a total area of {{convert|18915|km2|sqmi|0|abbr=on}} of which {{convert|18667|km2|sqmi|0|abbr=on}} is land and {{convert|248|km2|sqmi|0|abbr=on}}, or 1.31%, is water. At roughly {{convert|180|mi|km|0}} wide in the east-west dimension, the area of the county is massive. County government documents frequently cite the [[Colorado River]] town of [[Blythe, California|Blythe]] as being a "three-hour drive" from the county seat, [[Riverside, California|Riverside]]. Some view the areas west of San Gorgonio Pass as the Inland Empire portion of the county and the eastern part as either the [[Mojave Desert]] or [[Colorado Desert]] portion. There are probably at least three geomorphic provinces: the Inland Empire western portion, the Santa Rosa Mountains communities, and the desert region. Other possible subdivisions include tribal lands, the Colorado River communities, and the Salton Sink.


F-Zero, which had turned heads not only with its sleek design but also with its unprecedented sense of realism. Home consoles had never played host to such a fast-paced racing experience with such a free range of motion -- Mode 7's rotation effects allowed the player's sporty hovercraft to move freely through the track. F-Zero had already pioneered free-roaming 3D speed on the Super NES;
Serving this area are 19 healthcare facilities identified as "General Acute Care [[Hospital]]s." Five of these are identified as rural, sixteen provide at least basic emergency care, and three are level 2 [[trauma center]]s. The State of California defines Riverside county as ''Health Service Area 12''.
(http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3134033)


F-Zero took that spot, at least temporarily. It took it with the power of a truly fresh and original scenario and style of gameplay. Fast and unique racing action ([http://wii.ign.com/articles/759/759087p1.html ign f-zero vc review])
There are 14 major airports in Riverside County. County government projections expect the county's population to roughly double between 2004 and 2040. Most of the growth is expected in communities viewed as being within practical commute distances of work in [[Los Angeles County, California|Los Angeles County]] and [[Orange County, California|Orange County]].


Well-designed, fast-paced futuristic racing feels just right
In California, each County Office of Education has influence over funding and operation of schools within its area. The county includes a total of about 380 public schools including Riverside's ''California School for the Deaf''. These schools are operated by about 24 school districts and by Tribal governments in conjunction with the [[Bureau of Indian Affairs]].
offering up a perfect balance of pick-up-and-play accessibility and sheer depth. Sense of speed is terrific ([http://www.gamespot.com/wii/driving/fzerosnes/review.html gamespot])


F-Zero for the SNES delivered amazing racing action with the most intense speeds ever seen on a console. ([http://www.gamepro.com/article/previews/13120/f-zero-maximum-velocity/ MV preview gamepro])
The [[Inland Empire (California)|Inland Empire]] area of southern California is made up of the western portion of Riverside County.


;Music
=== Incorporated cities ===
The game's highly varied tracks still have a lot of personality, thanks partly to an excellent musical score that quickly establishes the game's subsonic pace. ([http://www.gamespot.com/wii/driving/fzerosnes/review.html gamespot])

F-Zero on the SNES was designed as a showcase for the system's pseudo-3D capabilities (known as Mode-7), but the game wasn't just a pretty face ¿ it was one of the fastest and most challenging racing games of its time. [http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/135/135423p1.html IGN. MV preview]

Each of the games in ''F-Zero'' series requires the player to beat opponents to the finish line while avoiding obstacles such as land mines and slip zones. The games usually require a mixture of memorization of the tracks and quick reflexes for its fast-paced racing gameplay. What all F-Zero games offer is the ability to use speed boosts to get ahead of the competition, which is usually not available until after the first lap of the race is complete. With ''[[F-Zero]]'' and [[F-Zero: Maximum Velocity|''Maximum Velocity'']] an approximate four second speed boost is given to the player to use whenever for each lap completed. Starting with ''F-Zero X'', throughout the duration of the race players may execute speed boosts, but now in exchange for losing energy. It is therefore necessary to use recharge strips around the course to replenish this energy, or risk exploding when it drops to zero. Strategically situated dash plates allow boosts without energy loss. In combination with course obstacles, drivers are allowed to attack each other with their vehicle bodies.


The games' fantasy worlds includes different climates and terrains, and are home to many different races and tribes of aliens. There are geographical differences from game to game, but distinctive locations recur, such as [[List of planets in the F-Zero series#Big Blue|Big Blue]], [[List of planets in the F-Zero series#Earth|Mute City]], and [[List of planets in the F-Zero series#Earth|Port Town]].-->

The F-Zero franchise has always been about three basic elements: speed, turns, and jumps. That's the simple breakdown of it, anyway. There are subtleties and intricacies of each that have helped stay the series over the years, and there has also been evolution with each new incarnation. The quick and easy way to describe the play is this: gamers race futuristic hover cars over and around unpredictable tracks, quickly navigating sharp turns, gaps in the courses and more, all while outmaneuvering opponent drivers. It's a design that seems straightforward enough, but nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the looping, twisting courses featured in the F-Zero games have traditionally made for some extremely challenging racers. [http://cube.ign.com/articles/365/365944p1.html]

Some of you, especially diehard fans of the series (like John R.), won't mind the difficulty, though. That crowd probably wouldn't have it any other way, and they'll be glad to see that the usual F-Zero trademarks are still in effect: solid, extremely fast racing; excellent track design; and the 30-strong roster of ships and pilots from the N64's F-Zero X.

The classic Nintendo franchise that has inspired countless futuristic racing games returns with F-Zero GX on the Nintendo GameCube. Long-time rival Sega collaborated with Nintendo to redefine the futuristic racing genre with intense competition, blazing speeds, and brilliant track designs.
[http://cube.ign.com/objects/480/480123.html]

Generally speaking, every game in the F-Zero series offers the same sort of lightning-fast, futuristic racing that's easy to learn and tough to master. However, the games do tend to vary when it comes to such aspects as visual style and technical flair. In that regard, F-Zero X for the Nintendo 64 is the black sheep of the family.
[http://uk.videogames.games.yahoo.com/wii/reviews/f-zero-x-6a2a74.html]

F-Zero X simply tried to do too much.
[http://guides.ign.com/guides/480123/page_12.html]

(for f-zero x, was copy-paste from IGN. google to find it)
The result is a game that looks rather bland, with little texture detail, simple looking car models and courses and a mono soundtrack. However, the unprecedented speed of the game running is smooth and the overall gameplay was solid. The game faired well with both critics and fans of the original.

<!--
==Dai San Gen==
These triplets come from the planet Shinar who took gymnastics at the National Troupe. The average lifespan of the beings of Shinar is 200 years, extremely long compared to that of earthlings. However, even after reaching adulthood, they remain quite small. Using telepathy, they do not need to speak to communicate. Dai, San and Gen have incredible teamwork skills and an amazing ability to operate their machines as one. Dai takes care of handling, San handles navigation, and Gen handles acceleration and braking. They are very aggressive drivers.

The ''Pink Spider'' was designed by Professor Tsumo, a huge fan of gambling, and uncle to the triplets that pilot the machine. Individual cockpits have been designed for Dai, San and Gen, and ejection seats have been added to all of them in case of an emergency. Due to the crescent moon-shaped balancers, called "spider legs," that are fixed on both sides of the machine, it has excellent grip capabilities. Strangely, although only Dai steers, all cockpits have steering wheels.

The high quality of Britannica's articles is very important. Certainly it was achieved through high standards. However, is restricting who writes about what the best way to reach and maintain high standards? Perhaps a more open way is better. Wikipedia is a good test of that proposition.

  • Special:Export's instructions are outdated, and some of the functions don't actually work as advertised. However, using this url directly will export the entire history of an article:
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Export&pages=NAME_OF_ARTICLE&history=1&action=submit
  • Save the resulting file as something.xml
  • Use a simple find/replace function in a text editor. Find all occurrences of "</username>" and replace it with "@en.wikipedia.org</username>". This will properly attribute the contributions, as well as avoiding wiki-identity fraud or innocent confusion.
  • A user with admin access on the external wiki can then import the file using Special:Import. Remember that if you are importing to Wikia, there is a size limit just below 2MB.

F-Zero games that utilize Mode 7: MVelocity[1] (double-layer)

Developed by second-party NDCube, a company nine years younger than the game they have so lovingly restored, it does almost the same job its predecessor did for the SNES, and forms the keystone in Nintendo's top tier launch line-up. eurogamer MV review

F-Zero, instantly became one of the defining titles for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System when it was released in 1991. (gamespot)

Far from being just a shiny tech demo, however, it was actually one of the coolest games on the system, and one of the best sci-fi racers you could get. gamespy

Fifteen tracks, four cars that handled very differently, and a great stereo sound track - F-Zero was one of the best racing games available on SNES and has secured itself a permanent place in gaming history. IGN (guide)

gameplay

F-Zero, which had turned heads not only with its sleek design but also with its unprecedented sense of realism. Home consoles had never played host to such a fast-paced racing experience with such a free range of motion -- Mode 7's rotation effects allowed the player's sporty hovercraft to move freely through the track. F-Zero had already pioneered free-roaming 3D speed on the Super NES; (http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3134033)

F-Zero took that spot, at least temporarily. It took it with the power of a truly fresh and original scenario and style of gameplay. Fast and unique racing action (ign f-zero vc review)

Well-designed, fast-paced futuristic racing feels just right offering up a perfect balance of pick-up-and-play accessibility and sheer depth. Sense of speed is terrific (gamespot)

F-Zero for the SNES delivered amazing racing action with the most intense speeds ever seen on a console. (MV preview gamepro)

Music

The game's highly varied tracks still have a lot of personality, thanks partly to an excellent musical score that quickly establishes the game's subsonic pace. (gamespot)

Difficulty

F-Zero on the SNES was designed as a showcase for the system's pseudo-3D capabilities (known as Mode-7), but the game wasn't just a pretty face ¿ it was one of the fastest and most challenging racing games of its time. IGN. MV preview

The original F-Zero was something of a finesse racer. It took lots of practice, good memorization skills, and a rather fine sense of control. gamespy
