There seems to be a slight upswing in Wipeout clones, and other futuristic racers. Do you think they'll come back?

>no more extremeG ever again
:^(
>>343173793
look up a game on steam called GRIP
>TFW Wipeout is gone forever
I don't even know why I bother waking up.
Wipeout as a franchise is officially dead.
>>343175945
Actually there were talks about a new Wipeout (or a remastered HD) for PS4 in 2015 fall.
We might hear something either at Tokyo Game Show or Playstation Experience events this year.
>>343176021
Wipeout HD was so fucking good holy shit. Even if it's a remake, I'd buy that.

Guys the original dev team for Wipeout have made their own studio and a spiritual successor. If you liked Wipeout you should check it out

INTO THE FUCKING TRASH
>TFW no Slipstream 5000 sequel
>>343176021
I'll buy the everloving FUCK out of a remaster of HD Fury.
Literally one of the best racers of all time, right up there with F-Zero GX, XtremeG, RollCage, and Kinetica.
>Redout
>Formula Fusion
>Acro Storm
>Ballistic NG
>Fast Racing NEO
Anything I should add to the list of potentially good racing games in the same style?
>>343176430
Slipstream GX is coming along very slowly and it's somewhat rather amateurish, but the final thing will be free at least. There's a playable demo and the devs are reassuring others that they're working on it.
It plays relatively close to Wipeout HD. If this or another free Wipeout community-made game gets online, it'll be fun to play with other /v/irgins.
>>343177296
I'll take what I can get. It looks alright!
>>343177385
I got two shitty webms of the game in action
>>343177609
That looks really promising. Almost like a straight HD skin for Wipeout 3. I like it.
Anyone wanna play some Wipeout HD? Maybe if we can get some people together we can have fun again.
>>343177296
>uses the slipstream name
>no resemblance to the original games
hella gay
>>343177670
BallisticNG is closer to the PS1 Wipeout games. That seems to be coming along faster, do give that one a go.
>>343176430
>Redout
fzero clone
>Formula Fusion
LOOKS like wipeout, doesn't play like it
>Acro Storm
looks... pretty bad, not sure I would compare to anything right now.
>Ballistic NG
yeah, it's a wipeout clone. The original wipeout on PS... complete with pop in geometry.
>Fast Racing NEO
fzero clone
>>343178028
How is being a clone a bad thing? It's exactly what I want. Sure, some may look rough, but they're amateur games. I'm not saying they're good, just that they have potential.
Did Wipeout HD really do poorly enough to justify canning Liverpool? The base game and fury were amazing, and it's majorly disappointing that the studio went out like that after over 20 years of working on the series.
>>343178658
Apparently the studio costed too much to keep going. Didn't Sony give out Wipeout HD for free after the whole hacked PSN ordeal?
2048 probably did poorly, though. It was okay but definitely had some shit missing on top of being stuck on an unpopular platform.
>>343178312
Are you referring to the fzero clone comments? There's nothing inherently wrong outside of the fact that fzero and wipeout are completely different games. Since this is a wipeout thread, it makes sense that they wouldn't be what others are looking for.
>tfw you have the 2048 platinum trophy
>only 0.1% people who played the game have it
God damn

>>343179389
>only have to grind the fucking multiplayer trophy
I don't think I'm even halfway.
I also failed to Beat Zico on HD (by 0.01 seconds).
>>343176192
This right here would instantly convince me that I need PSVR
>>343175945
It hurt even more for me because I hated Liverpool's Wipeout games, they didn't have the original PS1 wipeout physics, there's no flight sensations, and that was what made Wipeout so amazing to me; feeling like you're going so fast you could literally fly out of the track.
You also had to pull or drop the nose of the machine yourself in some case, this completely disappeared in later Wipeout games. In short they casualized the gameplay.
New game when?
>>343177923
From my limited time with an old build of BallisticNG I found it very much like old wipeout in some ways (namely being balls hard until you git gud).
>>343184563
Liverpool WAS Psygnosis - they were simply renamed when sony bought them out.
>>343173793
>Wipeout clones
*Fzero clones
Remember the distinction anon-
F-Zero craft are planes that off the ground
Wipeout craft are speedboats that hover
That is the distinction between the handling models.
>>343185380
Always feel like the opposite to we. F-Zero's crafts are always firmly on the ground
In Wiepout, especially the older ones, you can control them midair and even influence their flight time while jumpings
>>343185150
Those games don't play anything alike.
>>343185734
Its how the craft turn - F-Zero craft lean like a plane does while the wipeout craft pitch and yaw more like a boat.
This is particularly clear in sharp turns for wipeout as you can swing the rear of the craft right out almost as if you are trying to drift.
Pretty hyped for this

What? No it hasn't.
>>343186123
Chengou project without pitching the craft up is really awkward (just after the jump as it leads into the tunnel).
>>343186263
That corner is hell no matter how you angle your craft. On Phantom you are better off going into the crowd stands on the right of it, it is ridiculous.
Wipeout HD worth it or it's casual shit?
>>343187489
Its considered to be one of the hardest games in the series. In fact it was oroginally so hard the campaign mode had silver and bronze times for the time trials patched in because people were struggling to progress.
>>343173793
Old fart here.
I played Wipeout 1 on psx so often that when I was outdoors the sides of roads looked like Wipeout tracks in my peripheral vision. So that's one way to go nuts. As for wipeout clones...it's not really original, even Wipeout is just a ramped up version of F-zero on the SNES.
>>343173793
>racing games
Just let it die
>>343187905
Guess I'll buy then. I get everything by buying Fury right?
>>343185734
>you can control them midair and even influence their flight time while jumpings
You can do that in F-Zero too, at least in X.
>>343187489
The classic Wipeout games are much harder
HD and its xpack Fury aren't like F-Zero GX hard but the two aren't that easy either
Mega Race HD Collection and sequel please, I need more Lance Boyle in my life.
>>343176330
Forgetting Rush 2049 and Quantum Redshift
>>343184563
Um. Liverpool was the same team. Literally just a renamed Psygnosis.
Also
>didn't pitch in HD
Did you enjoy losing or something?
