What would viewers add to a five-star racing game? Beneath Giant Bomb's most watched new upload, the recurring answers are split-screen play and private lobbies, ways to turn Star Wars: Galactic Racer into a gathering with friends.

The clip, "#starwarsgalacticracer is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ game! Here's the little things that bugged Grubb #starwars #gaming", has reached about 47,000 views. Its title pairs a glowing verdict with Jeff Grubb's smaller frustrations; the replies make the multiplayer wishlist more concrete. One viewer remembers playing Sonic Racing Transformed with a big group and wonders how many friends could realistically get together these days. Another had hoped for couch racing with a nephew.

Galactic Racer wasn't a passing stop among the channel's fifteen uploads. It also featured in "Star Wars: Galactic Racer is the BEST Star Wars Game? | Giant Bombcast 961: Thumb Parry", alongside Ace Combat, Grubb's Titanfall 2 VR time and Jeff Bakalar's Nintendo sports discussion. Friday brought it back for "Deadlock & Star Wars: Galactic Racer | Unprofessional Fridays". That session and Grubb's shorter clip are the channel's busiest videos right now.

Across the channel, weekly views reached roughly 346,000 while subscribers stayed unchanged. That was a substantial week among nearby gaming channels, although GVG and Luke Stephens LIVE drew larger weekly audiences.

There was room for a less flattering game-night premise, too. "NEW BLIGHT CLUB SEASON | Duke Mikem Forever | 01" introduced Mikey's next round of bad-game duty and drew the second-largest audience among the week's new uploads. Galactic Racer got the stars; Blight Club supplied the deliberate suffering.

What viewers say

As someone who had a TON of fun with Sonic Racing Transformed and like 6 - 10 friends, I really will miss that. At the same time, with the lives we all have now, I'll be lucky to get three together at a time... I can dream.

No splitscreen too. I really wanted to play this with my nephew

Yeah they need to at LEAST do private lobbies, because this looks like a perfect party game with the bros. A splash of that Mario kart energy here so of course we wanna bring that to the special get together.

Those are weird things to miss, considering there is a leaderboard already. Hopefully that and a private lobby setup with custom conditions are added. Hoping it sells well to incentivize updates and support for some time. These seem like very fair, basic expectations for multiplayer racing. Thanks Grubb!

Love the game. If I had a perfect wishlist it would be VR implementation, HOTAS, steering wheel support/force feedback support, proper triple screen/ultrawide support and customization. Having the ability to play as Star Wars characters from the films.
