Wipeout Fusion - PS2

Wipeout's fast ,but this time it hit a wall.

By looking at the cover of this game you can tell that this looks fun. This game is a good rental but gets old after. It can be hard to control, trying not to hit the walls takes some practice. Fun for awhile. Graphics:4.5 Controls:3.0 Sound:3.5 Fun Factor:3.0

Wipeout Fusion - PS2

Wipeout Fusion

I've always been a big fan of the Wipeout series, and I must say that BAM! has done an excellen job of continuing the Psygnosis legacy. The gameplay is even tighter than the other PS versions, the graphics are amazing (superfast framrate with no choppy slowdowns), the Dolby Digital Prologic II sound is very cool (especially the music as always), and the replay value has gone sky high thanks to the new challenge mode which unlocks more weapons and other upgrades. The pilots have made a comeback! Once unlocked, you have a choice of two different pilots for each ship. The only drawback is that the tracks, cool as they are, are a bit short due to the breakdown of 45 tracks out of only 7 courses. I would've settled for less tracks if they were twice as long. Bottom Line, any fan of the Wipeout series should definitely add this edition to their collection, and any other racing fan should give it serious consideration.

good game

This game is pretty good. Though i was never crazy about any racign games so that is why i gave this game a 4.0. The graphics for this game are really good. 4.5 for the graphics. the sound for this game is pretty good. great sound effects, such as the klaxon when your sheilds are low. So 4.0 for the sound. The controls for this game are pretty easy to learn, feel good, and are responsive. So 4.5 for the controls. So really this game should get a 4,5 rating, though remember ( i was never really crazy for racing games) So that is why i gave it a 4.0 as all of you should have already heard. So also i say if you have not played this game yet then you should. Maybe rent it first to see if you like it, but most likely you will and should buy this game!!!
