So I guess I can forget about playing FPS, moba, online games.

I'm sad.

I should have bought that during the summer sale when it was around $10. It's been at the top of my buy list for a while.

King of Fighters 14 is the only thing I'm playing for now.
Really fun! But I really do suck at fighting games despite it being a favorite genre of mine.
Really nice to play a fighter that's really good after a few disappointments like Street Fighter V.

I'm not sure if the game's just hard, or if I just suck. Either way it's real fun, Wipeout is a series that really nails a fast arcade vibe, which is how I prefer racing games.

Plus, it has one of the best video game soundtracks of all time. It's 90's electronica heaven. Orbital, The Chemical Brothers, Underworld, among others makes this a ton of fun.

^ I played Wipeout on the N64 back in the day. Almost beat it fully but damn it gets touch in the later races. Solid series.

The one I posted, or a different one?

I'm only on the second circuit of the tournament, and it's hard. Once I really get to know the track it's a bit easier, but even then it can be hard to not keep hitting the sidelines. The challenges help for that though, so I can do those until I do well enough for the circuit.

It was called Wipeout 64 so possibly? I don't know the one you posted.

Either way I imagine there much the same. Im just stoked to see somebody else talk about this series. I remember spending many hours of my childhood trying to beat the races but god damn the power ups can be deadly.

Unitron · 12-07-2018, 10:45 PM

Yeah, I'm sure they'd be practically the same. It appears like the main difference with the 64 one was the soundtrack, as there's mostly original stuff as opposed to the awesome 90's electronic artists like Orbital.

I'd like to get the other ones in the series at some point, but for some reason those don't seem as common to come by as the third one.

Or maybe some sort of collection edition

Unitron · 12-08-2018, 12:16 AM

That would be great, but it looks like the only collection is the Omega Collection which is just the two newest games. Would've been nice if there was a remaster of the first three or something like that.
