Is this the one that's been up on PSN for a while?
Nope, fresh gameplay captured by our very hands tonight.
Does look even better now. The vehicles have a nice sheen on them I didn't see in previous trailers, and this shows gameplay without skipping around a lot so it gives a good idea of what the game is really like.
The concepts of "futuristic racers" have always been poorly executed IMO. Futuristic racers like Wipeout have always been about eye candy and only associated with showcasing graphics at console launches.
Traditionally after the launch both gamers and developers forget about these types of racers and for the most part you don't see or hear about them until a new wave of next gen consoles arrive. Which would suit me just fine because these things rarely ever presented a challenge.
I remember reading about a game studio years ago that was supposed to be working on a "space racer". The tracks were supposed to consist of runs through asteroid belts, nebulas and planet atmospheres that effected your ship during the courses. I thought that was an interesting take on the whole "future racer" genre but I think the studio that was developing the game closed it's doors.
I was pretty much hoping this series and this type of racer was done for. I never liked Wipeout or ever understood what the fuss was all about.

the contrast between light and shadow makes the game look almost cel-shaded...i like it. seems to be back to its old self too...non of this "fusion" crap.
which edition of wipeout is this?
hope they're not selling this full price. it screams PSN game.
Love wipeout, can't wait for this. ONLINE RACES!
The audio track 196kbit is here but not a whisper....
Yep. Try taking a craft around one of those twisty tracks in the highest speed class... it takes an exraordinary amount of skill to be fast... certainly one of the deepest arcade racers out there, better than any other futuristic racer and many a regular racer, and much much more than just a graphical showcase. Wipeout on the PSP was one of the best games ever, on ANY console.
I'm glad you have no influence over the gaming industry. Futuristic racing games like Wipeout and F Zero are some of the best racing games, and the newer F Zero games are about the furthest thing from 'eye candy' games as possible.
And I personally don't see the need for you to continue posting about something you clearly have no interest in. Please move on.
Plus.. why would someone want a genre to end simply because they don't enjoy it? A little selfish, don't you think?
