Player's Review

"Driven by instinct, WipeOut is the gut-wrenching, white knuckled ride of your life. With multiple tracks, vehicles and weaponry, it's the next generation racing game for next generation gamers. Accept nothing less than ultra-fast 3D texture-mapped graphics scorching past at 30 frames per second. Everything else is stuck in first gear.
So strap yourself in and hit the course at light-speed, blasting your opponents in the only racing game where combat comes as standard. Lightning reflexes rule in this two-player race'n' chase thriller that wipes the floor with anything else on the track."

The first game in the Wipeout series and one of the earliest games to show what the Playstation was capable of when the console launched

The game only has 7 tracks and 2 championships but it is also hard as nails so it wasn't over within an hour of getting the game. The game was radically different to anything we had been playing on our 16bit machines prior to the playstation release.

The video shows progression through the Venom and Rapier Championships which unlocks the firestar track. I then play the Rapier Championship again which now contains the firestar track to complete the game. After the credits I show the firestar track again using the remaining racing team just to show the 4th and last craft in use. (I use a different craft in each championship). All 4 ships handle differently and cockpit view is the default with this game and I actually find the game easier in this view as it doesn't tilt as much as it does in the later games.
