This game has been out for nearly 20 years and I'm still playing this game, all thanks to the Special Edition mod.

I like that they compared it to Mario Kart than F-Zero.

(also, based on WP2048, the supposed racing hovercars should be out by next year)

Hey r/WipeOut, it’s me, the guy who asked you all if getting the Omega Collection was worth it, and I now have an answer:

YES.

The Omega Collection is very fun. As of writing I’ve just completed the 2048 Cup. This game looks like one I’ll enjoy a lot. Tips and tricks are greatly appreciated!

I’m a new player who just got the Omega collection off of PS+. Is it worth my time?

Started playing in the XL / 2097 days, which for me is still the most perfected title of the series. The point of the Wipeout series is the sophisticated hover and drift physics at high speed, which no other antigravity racer I’ve played is as satisfying to master.

It always bothers me seeing the craft referred to as “ships.” Just because it sounds kind of lame for what they actually are. They are not ships- they do not transport goods or people long distances, and they do not go to outer space. They don’t usually move higher than a few feet off the track. In the world of Wipeout, they would have been invented purely for sport. They drive most similarly to a jet ski or a speedboat, but without the resistance or clunkiness of water propulsion. But they are piloted like a luge or a bobsled, through twisting tracks with banked corners and steep declines.

I’ve always thought of them as a “hover sled” or “rocket sled”.

Any other ideas?

I just got a second hand ps4 slim to play wipeout and street fighter 6.

After being purchasable via console only, does WipeOut go on sale? I could swear that it was on sale earlier this month/last month but I didn't have my ps4 then.

Are any of the games possible to emulate on windows and play split screen with 2 controllers? Thanks

Had this on my eBay search alerts for far too long. Glad to finally snag one. It stinks of cigarettes and has 8 cr@p games that came with it. This somehow makes it even more authentic.

Hi everyone, hope you're all well. I'd just like to ask for some music recommendations to listen to whilst playing wipeout, specifically Wipeout Pulse (as I'd also like to add them into the game). Looking forward to whatever will be recommended!

I decide to have fun with good ol' ChatGPT to make some team's name be translated into Engrish if there was a bootleg WipEout game. And the results? Top notch. Just try to guess every team

friends... thing of the possibilities... we may be able to change the actuall models of ships in the future or better yet, not just recolour the ui but change the racing ui to smth like wipeout 2097 or even pulse!

I don't seem to be able to select van uber as a team anymore? Anyone else noticed this?

For the variety of anti-gravity racing games I find it a bit odd there are hardly any games without "gravity down, towards the big road, maybe magroads if you go upside down".

The only exception I know is Ballistics, it's inside a pipe with very weird physics to make it work, and it does work. Fzero has some circular tracks but they're mostly gimmicks, and it's still gravity towards the road.

Do you guys know any racing games that do more with anti-gravity? Even just space flight that isn't straight up 6DOF

recently got into wipeout, i really love the aesthetic, lore, gameplay, etc and i'm getting into the anti gravity racing genre. but i'm a huge arcade racing fan and i wonder if i can have the best of both worlds

some of the games i've found that are similar are XGIII (3) and XGRA (they use motorcycles) and Kinetica (you are the vehicle)
