'Sup. this is a thread about wipeout. [b]What is this?[/b] I feel sorry for you. it was awesome. anyway, Wipeout is mario kart and MNC's child. futuristic anti-gravity combat racing. [B]Backstory[/B] The year is roughly 2020, and Pierre belmondo defies every single law of physics and creates the first anti-gravity generator. Transport is changed forever. New laws of physics needed to be made. It's the future, baby. A few years later, AG-SYSTEMS, the company Pierre owns, Moves to japan. The EU panics, and creates FEISAR so Europe isn't left behind in the dust. Meanwhile in japan, two AG-SYS employees fall out. One employee thinks that AG tech should be made for the good of mankind. Pierre agreed with her. Another witnessed the demand for AG tech first hand, and thought Pierre was daft for refusing to profit off it. Eventually, the situation got so tense, Pierre had to fire them. The first went to America to create Auricom, while the second went to russia to create Quirex. Meanwhile in brazil, two teams Pir and hana merged to created Pir-hana. Hmm, that name sounds familiar. Anyway, WipEout 2048 now takes place.

It is based inbetween pure and pulse. canocially, FX-350 is a proving ground and is made up of tracks from both games. everyone from the last game, pulse, is stock craft. zone mode is loads better. this one is for ps3, hence the thread tag. also has an expansion called fury, adding loads more of the tracks from the last two games, zone race and detonator. also puts eliminator back in HD. [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/93/Wipeout_2048_Boxart.jpg[/IMG] WipEout 2048 The latest adddition to the series on PS VITA. It's based in 2048, roughly 8 years before WipEout 1. The tracks aren't especially designed anymore, nope, you're racing through the streets of near-future cities including new york and maybe others. Also includes a new, green weapon pad where it only gives you the defensive items (Sheild, boost, etc), and the old weapon pad, which just gives weapons. Altima VII returns! Yay! This one has 10% more deadmau5.

Some Chords, actually Invaders must die is in it, too
Really liking the look of (what I assume is) the Feisar craft in 2048. Not really faithful to the classic feisar design, but cool nevertheless. Unless I'm mistaken and feisar isn't even in the game for some reason, in which case I'm disowning the product and boycotting the vita.
Of course FEISAR is in, stoopid
Fucking love WipEout. It's like F-Zero's classier cousin
If a game had that many installments and I haven't heard of it it's either bad or console only going to guess console only since this looks pretty fun
Playstation only, sadly. WipEout and WipEout 2097 had a pc version I think
Wipeout 2048 is one of the few reasons I want a PS Vita right now.
I got this game from when PSN went down last summer and never played it, is it good?
Assegai represent!
Not sure which one I played when I was a kid, but it had Prodigy's Firestarter in it. Man, good times.
I remember playing 2097 on the PC! :v: Such a fun game that was. Pretty hard, though.
Here have a 40min overview of every team from every game and their documented history within the wipeout universe, It's genuinely fascinating. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7e4mDhaxj_M&context=C4b26ed8ADvjVQa1PpcFMLFy7eh8emoMf4QXNGXgcDnnwCiNPEF-8=[/media]
I only ever had 2097, was fairly good.
Icaras fan here.
I got HD Fury months ago and I'm done with HD campaign. Struggling on Fury campaign, especially those Detonator events.
i have wipeout pure for psp. it was fun.

[QUOTE=NanoSquid;35287321]Fucking love WipEout. It's like F-Zero's classier cousin[/QUOTE] In my opinion, WipEout has better gameplay, while F-Zero has better music.

Auricom for life. Have a Nice Day.
Qirex fanboy here
Feisar here. First played 2097 when I was no age. I've been on and off the series due to platform choice, got Pure and Pulse on PSP. Would love to play HD, but no PS3 for me, sadly :<
[QUOTE=latin_geek;35287362]If a game had that many installments and I haven't heard of it it's either bad or console only going to guess console only since this looks pretty fun[/QUOTE] That has to be the most narrow minded way of looking at video games I have ever seen in my life. Because, holy shit. How have you not heard of a series as prolific as Wipeout? Even I knew of it, and I don't normally play racing games. Got to admit, Wipeout HD is god damn sexy. I don't think I would have paid for it, but it has been great fun since we got it in the compensation offer.
I didn't own any Sony consoles past the PS1 so sadly I've only played up to Wipeout 3. I love how believable Wipeout is compared to F-zero or any other sci-fi racing game.
Sweet just beat Wipeout 2048 with everything elite passed. Now I can go pimpin' online with my chrome skins.
Loved these games. I remember playing them for the PS1 and PS2.
I still got Wip3out on the PS1 with that awesome CD. Awesome game.
[QUOTE=dass;35328728]I still got Wip3out on the PS1 with that awesome CD. Awesome game.[/QUOTE] Wip3out was my first WipEout game. I impulse-bought WipEout pure when I rediscovered the series. I now own all of the games but WipEout 1, WipEout HD and 2048.
