Hey look, i'm doing a GRaPHiX KinG thread!!!

No, not really.

But on a system that apparently collects graphics kings that "cant possibly be reproduced on its rival HDtwin"(oddly enough, everytime an exclusive game comes out) there is one amazing looking exclusive title kids seem to be ignoring when they duke it out on SW's favourite e-penis contest.

WipeOut HDFury

aka:"it-looks-better-then-Uncharted2--oh-no-i-didnt-yes-i-did-deal-with-it-!!!"

^ THIS is a technical showcase!!!

-1080p

-60fps

-Inspired futuristic arquitecture, st-yle and visual & sound design

-Fantastic OST

-Silky smooth gameplay

Ahem...

With that out of my system, you may continue comparing grey shooters, generic action games with boring protagonists, foliage and sub 30fps games to prove who has the bestest videogame system ever!

Hold on a second. Is this an update? I haven't played Wipeout HD yet, but holycr@p that looks phenominal.

You just labeled first person shooters as having boring protagonists and then you try to flout this game that has absolutely no protagonist? Am I sensing a problem here?

And PC games go 60 fps at 1080p, so there goes that.

Although, it does look kinda neat. :P

I never said FPS games had groundbreaking stories, other people may have, but most of them do really suck.

Did you just diss the Duke? I sure hope not. And Deus Ex says hello.

How are racing games better in that regard anyway?

How much does the whole Wipeout HD package cost then? I have $20 in best buy rewards. I need to print those up before I go to work. This thread is making me buy this game today.

Looks like old star wars concept art, imo.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"]Yeah. Racing games need no protagonists. FPS's tout their stories as groundbreaking whereas they really just feature one dimensional characters in linear environments, dealing with primitive problems with a blast it if it moves mentality.charizard1605

Tell you what, we'll agree to disagree, because frankly, racing games really aren't my thing. I get bored of them within the first hour.

Shooters have mixed set pieces that allow for more variety(like Stalker for instance - none of that call of duty crap), where as most racing games are just the same thing, over and over just on different tracks. Just like most fighting games.

Idk why but the screen shots remind me of F Zero (not talking about the graphics).

Too bad Wipeout will always be inferior gameplay-wise to F-Zero.

I really like the look of the first four screenshots, reminds me of Audiosurf a lot.

Bought it for 25€. More than worth it!

Thunderdrone

hmmm. here would be a chance to try out Playstation Plus for 90 days too. 15€ subscription (=free Wipeout HD) + Fury for 10€ = 25€

[QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Well, Deus Ex, I'll give you. Duke was good for his time, today he's just one of many grizzled marines in the market. And he isn't even all that relevant anymore. Racing games are better because they don't NEED stories to succeed, nor do they hold any pretensons in that regard. Shooters, on the other hand...charizard1605

[QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] I suppose so... :P Do you just not like racers in general, or is this about some specific sub genre racers? Kart racers, Racing sims, arcade racers...

Wipeout HD does look really good. It runs really smooth and has a great futuristic artsstyle. I don't have the Fury Expansion but those images are making it looks tempting

Fantastic art sctyle. the first few screens are amazing!!!

Holy **** that's the best thing I've ever seen :shock:

Thats one of the worst screens i've seen of Wipeout on the PS3

I played this yesterday night, i doesnt look like that.

You want to see HUDs? Okay

So awesome =O

I see the "Zone" artst-yle is quite popular in this thread :)

The Zone Stages IMO have always looked better than the racing stages. I like WipeOut but F-Zero will always be Future Racing King. (I have no hope for F-Zero Wii, but hope for F-Zero 3D on the 3DS)

yea it is one the best looking game ever, but the game isn't my style

Purdy

[QUOTE="Modshater"]Good for you. the game really looks great but it doesn't feel like a gfx king.Thunderdrone

Wipeout is definitely a fantastic looking game and especially at 1080p, plays great and runs silky smooth. But it is pretty basic compared to most games these days.

FireEmblem_Man

Yeah the Zone stages are awesome looking (and to play), first time i tried one i was giggling like a school girl by stage 10 or so, more speed=more fun evidently. :P

I'm pretty sure it doesn't look as good as those pictures actually. :? Maybe my hdtv isn't up to par though.

Oh come on.....that's not what it looks like either. :|
