I try to be one of the more reasonable cows but after this and R&C it's hard not to think that GS sometimes just gets reviews plain wrong.

Maybe GS should just rate all games 9.0 or higher to keep everyone happy?

[QUOTE="krp008"]Now wheres that guy that wanted to buy a PS3 just for this game?krp008

must be around here, why?

Don't think he will base his decission for this score

Its stupid enough buying a $500 console for one, small, downloadable game. But spending a half a grand for one, small, downloadable flop of a game, now thats just downright crazy

its just as stupid as spending money on a console that breaks more often than the other 2.

I don't think they really take the value part into consideration. Regardless, a lot of cows were saying AAA, sucks for them. I don't think its really a flop though, just a product of a bad review on another PSN game.

I guess they didn't get the memo. Wipeout HD is an HD port/remake of the earlier wipeout games.

I guess FF 1-4 on the DS/PSP that get a visual update and relased for full price are worthy of 9/10 ratings. Yes they are guilty of the same thing.

I'm not agreeing to anything the other guy said but based on your words why did you buy the PS1 or the PS2?

I wasn't too impressed with the demo. That 7.5 would seem accurate. Good enough to keep fans happy, but not a must buy here

Sounds about right

I'm not surprised at the high scores from Eurogamer as Wipeout is seen as something of an institution in the UK. But this is just a bunch of tracks ripped from some PSP games and rendered in jawdropping graphcial detail

The proper Wipeout game should be great but this doesn't really seem deserving of more than a 7.5

It's funny I wonder what they see that makes PSN games so mediocre to Arcade or Virtual Consol games.

I would get it if I had a ps3 instead of a 360, the whole series has been generally awesome, this gen needs some more future racers for all consoles and PC.

Missed the PSP one so for £20 this is a steal for people like me, not so great review I get the feeling.

[QUOTE="Stonin"]The problem with this game is that it copies content, doesn't really add to the series and is just a blatant cash in. Other than that it's a pretty good game i'm guessing, just as they were before this one.DireToad


Yeah because when a game has the same tracks you've played before with the same characters and vehicules and a full game price it's ok as long as it's called Mario Kart DS.

The difference being half the 32 tracks were completely new, where here it seems there are absolutely no new tracks ;)

Given that I've never played a game in the series and critical acclaim elsewhere, I'll get this regardless. GS is a real ***** when it comes to PSN titles anyway.

My thoughts exactly, to explain the score. GS like fresh content, and fair enough imo

Graphics and mediocre multiplayer does not make an old style game AAA or even AA

Good job GS
