LOLOL I played this game with my friend a year ago all the fucking time. Holy shit the hardest speed is fucking imposssssible. I mean what the fuck! But damn did we have fun wiping out so much. So difficult using a console controller.

I already PM'd SirJolt the MAN'S anti-grav racing game.

The hardcore music.
The perma-death of other drivers.
The absolutely over-the-top courses.

One of the few racing games (I play a shit ton of them) that your vehicle speed translated to your screen very well...when your car was going 1500 km/h it looked and felt like you were controlling something going 1500 km/h


SirJolt: Well maybe if you weren't so big and stupid, it wouldn't have hit you.

Not a chance. Comparing Wipeout with F-zero is like comparing F1 with Nascar.

Faster Cups in F-zero are like playing the game in fast foward, all move faster, including your turns.

Even in the first Wipeout, your ship turns the same in every class but it got really harder and harder to control at those faster speeds. Wipeout is the only racing game i've ever played where you really can't hold the acceleration button (at higher classes)

Oh and the music, yes. F-Zero have some amazing music for a videogame, classic good videogame music.

Wipeout went beyond regular videogame soundtracks and went for top class dj's.

I'll just put this out there in case, I'm not sure Sony is going to simply let go of Wipeout. While Studio Liverpool is gone and I also mourned it's loss, Sony has already announced they are going to continue to support Wipeout servers, and I believe teased that they may continue the franchise.

We'll see what happens when a new studio takes it up, but I still spend much of my PS3 time not on my 60$ games, but on the beautiful Wipeout.

Thank you, thank you for this article ;___;
I don't know how I managed to miss Studio Liverpool closing down, but it makes me so sad. Every single time that I think of consoles, I insta-nostalgie about my wipeout 3 (wip3out)

EDIT:



*sigh* I guess I am going to drive 600km soon, to fetch my PS1 and Wip3out, as well as PSP with wipeout pulse. :D

Yeah, I had heard about this, but the sense of continuity being broken still worries me tremendously. A lot of what made Wipeout what it was was that continuity from Psygnosis to Studio Liverpool.

It's only so bad because I don't think we could even see an indie version of something quite similar show up, given that I'm not sure how indie devs would go about licensing the calibre of music that's been such a huge part of the game...

Still, better to be optimistic! :D

This shouldn't be considered off topic, as it comes up in most of my conversations regardless of topic.

As much as i hate almost every other blog on TL (aside from the Guitar blog), this one is outstanding. I still remember buing a PS1 in summer 1997 will all my savings and enjoying the demo of WipeOut 2097.

Also, WipeOut HD/Fury is always close to giving me seizures on my huge TV screen.
the game is the game
