About this product

Product Information

Hot on the vapor trails of the hit original, Wipeout XL brings new tracks and more weapons to fans of futuristic racing. With new weapons, new racing tactics come into play, but the main goal of the game remains the same: Pilot a supersonic hoversled through a twisting, looping, gravity-challenging track, first to the finish line, to the tunes of a progressive house and electronica soundtrack.<br><br>The variety of weapons available in Wipeout XL sets it apart from its predecessor, with straight-out damage-dealers, such as rockets and missiles, defensive enhancements, including special shields and the mine-detonating Quake Disruptor, and support tools like the E-Pack recharger or the four-second Autopilot ability. Weapons are obtained and selected for use simply by steering over them, then activated with the press of a button.<br><br>The game offers four difficulty settings, which affect the top speed of the anti-grav racing ships and the number of laps that must be completed in each race. Additional tracks and features can be unlocked through accomplished play. Multiplayer racing is available between two console systems running the game, connected with a link cable.

  • A great game and my favorite of the series to date

    The game is as close to perfect regarding fun factor as you can get in the WO series, i have read a review here that complains about no analog control support, disregard that, as theres only one commercially available supported control i would use with this game and its analog: the NeGcon, if you can get one you must try it with this game, its absolute gaming bliss. The physics and speed in the game are unmatched by any other in the series, and the harmony between this, graphics, sound and music blend almost to adrenalinic perfection which leads to a high level of immersion without resorting to virtual reality devices, specially if you tried it around its launch date. I will not try an orthodox review of it, because sometimes its not necessary to do a by-the-book analysis, its a ...

  • Best Wipeout Game ever!

    This is my absolute favorite Wipeout game (known as Wipeout 2097 in the rest of the world!) The sound track is amazing and will get your adrenaline pumping and really get you into the game! The high speeds, the weapons and the easy as pie instructions.... it just takes some practice to learn when to steer at corners without hitting the walls... but once you get the hang of it it's fun and most of all VERY addictive! I used to have this game as well as Wipeout 3 but more often than not played this one!!! This is the type of game that you will simply not stop playing until your head hurts and your eyes can't focus anymore! The higher levels do get very difficult but are a great challenge!

  • Wipeout XL Put the Wipeout Series on the Map

    ### Background ### Wipeout XL is the second game in the successful Wipeout series and it is by far the most popular and most widely recognized of the futuristic racing series. Because of it's popularity, Wipeout XL was also released for Sega Saturn, Windows, Mac and Amiga platforms but none were as successful as the PS1 version. In Europe, the PS1 version is known as "Wipeout 2097". ### Strengths ### - Graphics - Pushes the PS1's hardware to it's absolute limits but still manages to maintain a rock solid frame rate 99.99% of the time. Sometimes, friends of mine accidentally think this game is for the PS2 due the high quality of the graphics. - Soundtrack - Unmatched. Quite possibly, the best soundtrack ever made for a racing game. No joke. If you are a fan of electronica ...

  • Awesome racer. You won't be disappointed.

    First of all, let me start by saying that this is the second in the series of nine games. It is truly a classic and belongs in any racing fans game library. I play this on my Playstation 2 and turn on the texture smoothing option. This helps to smooth out the jagged edges on PS1 games. Frame rate is excellent. The weapons are great as well. The ships designs are realistic for racing hovercraft. Just like the cover. I also really like the team logos. The soundtrack is top notch with famous techno artists, so you can crank it up on the stereo while playing. All in all, a great futuristic racer. Highly recommend this one
