The Sunday Papers
Rock Paper Shotgun’s Sunday column features comedic commentary on speedway racing gameplay, highlighting the formidable character Biddy Blas in Star Wars: Galactic Racer. According to the piece, Biddy Blas has achieved unparalleled mastery of the game’s racing mechanics, making the character seemingly unbeatable against all competitors. Players face multiple rival racers including Ary Quill, Griff Halloran, Soren Zaks, and Katja Mox as they work to improve their own racing abilities through repeated practice. The article employs hyperbolic humor to characterize Biddy Blas as “the greatest racer who ever lived,” suggesting a significant skill gap that makes defeating the character virtually impossible. The commentary emphasizes that while players must invest effort to become proficient racers across galactic tracks, they will inevitably find their progress stalled by Biddy Blas’s superior performance. The piece uses exaggerated language to convey the futility of challenging this elite competitor.
