Never played these games but they look great.

Huge fan of kart racers (MK8, CTR, etc.) and F-Zero.

Does this collection come highly recommended? I love the look of the games.

Yes they are incredible

 

[data]

Pegi is EU right?

Price is kinda steep but I'll buy it anyways.

 

[HueyFreeman]

Completely missed opportunity for a AAA PSVR title imo

I've said it before, but I really strongly think this game would not be conducive to VR - it would simply make too many people sick. Thumper is the closest example but thumper has a very controlled way of presenting it's track and trackside detail. Wipeout would just be totally overwhelming for the sensorium. The devs basically said as much.

Is this coming to America?

... why wouldn't it?

I'd prefer not to double dip before a game is out but MAN I WANT THAT THEME

Good lord, that is nice.

 

[LiquidColor]

Didnt they have that same theme for the PS3 when Wipeout Fury came out?

No, pretty sure you're thinking of the Wipeout HD main menu.

 

[demosthenes]

Mine.

Will buy digital.

 

[guyssorry]

Yes they are incredible

Excellent. Thanks, buddy

 

[Robbit_80]

Day 1. Wish there was a steelbook or vinyl collectors edition. :/

 

[DrZeus]

On my bday!😀

 

[Triggerhappytel]

$40 will hopefully be £30 - if so I think I will use my £10 credit back next month to pre-order this. I'm not very good at the Wipeout games, but I bloody love them regardless.

 

[Leatherface]

Oh hell yes! I will be getting this for sure. \m/

It's £30 on amazon, unless you mean on the ps store

 

[LoveCake]

Why isn't wipE'out"2097 in this though?

It is the best one still imo, I wonder if it is due to a rights or music license issue.

 

[michaelius]

Are there any discounts on digital preorders in EU PSN ? Never bough any digital game there in preorder due to insane prices but I might make an exception for Wipeout as I expect to get a lot of usage out of it.

 

[predalien27]

Does this include all the music from HD, Fury, and 2048 plus the 28 or so extra songs? I'm just worried because I know licensing can get strange. Also you could read the the wording as there only being the "new" 28 songs they mention.

I don't think we know for sure but I would assume not until otherwise stated. I'm pretty sure music licensing is why we still don't have Wipeout XL or Wip3out on PSN.

There's no steelbook edition, and I'm getting my money back for South Park.

Looks like I'm pre-ordering from the store!

The tracking on PSVR isnt as good as the vive/oculus right? That would be the only reason I can see for it not being a good fit considering that Redout is available for Vive and Oculus and has no such problems

PSVR's also a more mainstream platform and so won't necessarily be as conducive to games with a high potential for motion sickness. In addition, Sony may itself be more conservative as a VR publisher than the makers of Redout.

 

[Shin-Ra]

count me in..
let's hope there is no performance sheningans..
a less than ROCK STEADY fps performance would be a disgrace for wipeout...

Which past WipEout games had a rock steady framerate though.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Yeah, I do mean on PSN. I'd rather buy a game like this digitally to have it available to play immediately.

Why isn't wipE'out"2097 in this though?

It is the best one still imo, I wonder if it is due to a rights or music license issue.

Because that's a PS1 game which would obviously require a shit load of work to bring it up to standard with the others.

You don't usually get a discounted for pre-orders unless they're running a specific promotion, or with some indie games.

I seriously doubt it, as they'll be caught up in all kinds of licensing issues.

 

[allintospace]

Pilot your favourite ships to killer tunes from Swedish House Mafia, Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy.

In regards to the above... if The Prodigy track in question is not Firestarter (instrumental) I will be greatly disappointed.

Wipeout Omega Collection preorder now up on US Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XY6L858/?tag=neogaf0e-20

If you mean the music, I'd disagree . It does seem to fit with the style overall, but if you meant a source recording instead of a camera recording then yeah (it's not my video).

It's £29.99/€34.99 on EU PSN.

Why can't this be available in the physical edition ;_;

 

[Reg]

Hook it to my veins.

 

[Curufinwe]

I wonder if I can get a Pro and a 4K TV by then.

 

[groansey]

Did any of the tracks from the original WipEout and WipEout 2097 get remade in these releases?

 

[thepenguin55]

It would be awesome if this game just became a platform. For example, they could put out an expansion pack that is just all the tracks from the PSP games and they could put out dlc that is just the soundtracks from those games. Then if Wipeout Fusion ever comes to PS4 owning that game would unlock a Wipeout Fusion track pack in this collection. Basically, I would love this to just become EVERY Wipeout game.

 

[Elandyll]

The rare case where I'll buy digitally to have the game always ready to go

 

[eyeball_kid]

So this is $40 for both physical and PSN? Not the greatest cover design. Leaning towards PSN so I don't have to swap discs to play a quick race. Wonder what the download size is.

Nope.

But our door is always open.

They did a good job with their preorder theme and it's definitely worth the preorder if you're gonna dive in, but this is honestly one of my dream projects.

Aw man, I was totally hoping it'd be yours. Theirs is pretty good, though I was getting a bit of vertigo with that endless loop.

 

[Kojirospath]

Played a wipeout game once. Couldn't turn a single corner without crashing into the railing. Quit after 40 minutes and never looked back.

 

[Gaminar]

I had the same problem as you. Git gud my friend git gud.

I got the Platinum at the end.

 

[bubaglobalj]

With FAST RMX and soon Redout for the Switch, I think my appetite for this kind of game has been met sufficiently.

 

[DBT85]

I'm crap at it, but I have to buy it for 4k60hdr. It's going to be beautiful.

A good price too. Hopefully it gets the sales.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

God dam that box art looks sexy.

 

[LiquidColor]

In Wipeout HD/Fury and 2048? there's an assist that will aid you in turning so you don't hit walls or not as often. Without it, you gotta learn to use the airbrakes. I'd also assume that the function is in this Wipeout, too.

 

[Mega Man's Electric Sheep]

Played a wipeout game once. Couldn't turn a single corner without crashing into the railing. Quit after 40 minutes and never looked back.

There's an assist option you can turn on in wipeout hd that helps you stay away from the railing. It's a great aid while you're learning the game.

 

[JetSetRadio]

With FAST RMX and soon Redout for the Switch, I think my appetite for this kind of game has been met sufficiently.

Like a bad shrimp appetizer.

 

[somecrazymember]

Day 1. June will be nostalgia month with Crash and this... Isn't Patapon also coming soon to PS4?

 

[Barkley's Justice]

Wonder if the first 3 are hidden as easter eggs with missing soundtracks or something

 

[Spaced Harrier]

Does it have the tracks from the original releases of the games or is it all new?

 

[SkylineRKR]

2048 is best Wipeout once it runs at 60fps. Absolutely loved it on Vita already.

 

[Brian_FETO]

They would advertise that if it was the case, because that's 3 more games you're getting lol

Would be awesome obviously

 

[HueyFreeman]

2048 is best Wipeout once it runs at 60fps. Absolutely loved it on Vita already.

The other major improvement in 2048 will be not using the Vita's analogue stick. I loved that the vita had them but man they were not built for high finesse

 

[Neverwas]

my Ps4 is nothing without a Wipeout to play. can't wait.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Sweeeeeet. Pre-ordered on Amazon. Love the box art. Nostalgia overload for PS fans in June with this and Crash Bandicoot.

Pretty sure PS4's going to end up as my favorite Sony machine. This year has been pretty insane.

 

[Brian_FETO]

Have they shown anything from 2048? I remember them teasing that they had access to an unreleased/in-progress PS4 build that they weren't showing off yet

 

[Theswweet]

I plat trophied WipEout 2048, and I'm looking forward to doing that again here.

 

[bebop242]

Man I want to go digital but I NEEEED that physical copy. Might actually double dip. Excited!

 

[dracula_x]
