el-b - April 7, 2008 10:54 PM (GMT)

Yep, it's Wipeout, I guessed everyone wuold know that, but which one mate? :D

EDIT: Without Googling for pics to check! :P

I feel like a huge nerd, I knew it was wipe out the second I saw it and I've never played it before. :blink:

Nah, your no a nerd, man :D Even if you've never played it, Wipeout has become almost as iconc as Space Invaders and the like. Your missing out though. Every hardcore gamer should have played it at lease once!

This isn't simply Wipeout by the way, it's another game in the series!

I can't belive nobody has got it? :blink:

Omniponent - April 8, 2008 01:41 AM (GMT)
I don't got it. But I has a bucket. It's just a racing game right? Not big storyline, right?

Yeah racing, no big storyline or plot, just a bit of background history on the sport itself.
To be honest, I assumed someone would guess this instantly, which would allow me to elaborate on the game itself. Doesn't seem to have worked out that way though :blink: :lol:

It IS Wipeout, but which one? :rolleyes:

Isnt this for ps1? I remember there was a pub when I was a kid and it had a gaming bit, there where 4 ps1s with worms armageddon, wipeout or whatever that is, some old racing game and the other one was broken. good times, good times :)

ITS WIPEOUT 3?!

And lo, he hath spake, and it was good, and full of un-failness :D

Yep, you got it in one mate, PS1's Wipeout 3 SE, or Wip3out Special Edition as it's also known ;)

ePSXe's option to use all kinds of different shaders enables you to make the game look damn sexhe if you ask me. It moves a a blinding pace also.

If you go to the ePSXe site, the emu's coder/maker made an announcement of another release very soon! 5 years since it was updated!!?? :blink:

No it's not mate, Wipeout 2097 (Aka Wipeout XL) is the second game in the series ;)

By the way, I used my awesome mind teleportation powers to physically 'will' that mysterious RE3 game to you, and you still owe me the money for it :P

ZOMG DANGER GIRL. I loved that game when I was like... 10.

JC was so neato. I remember being all pissed when it was over.

EDIT: This isn't response to the game pics from the first post, this is to one of the pictures in the picture with a bunch of games. :P

It's all game talk ;)

Never played (or heard of) it sadly. Read the comic though.

Game looks like it was quite impressive for it's time:

I'll try and track it down, give it a go on ePSXe. I played Ape Escape on it the other day, with the cell shading level way up, and I swear it looked next gen! (PS2 not PS3 of course!) Can't wait for the next release.

It was like a poor man's version of Syphon Filter. I liked it because instead of Gabe Logan wearing diapers, I played girl characters.

Though, years later, I learned that this game was not for the girls, but for the guys to oggle at. Oh wells. The chix kick major butt. Go girls!

Isn't it always the way, kinda sad really when you think about it. It is 2008 for christs sake! Girl characters in games have to be VERY visibly distinguishable it seems.

Good news for spotty teenage boys, self image worries for teenage girls :(

the only thing i thought was cool about danger girls was that the guy who made it was related to bruce campbell, and he had this cool interview in the front of an annual with a cartoon backdrop with props from all his movies, really smartly done. that and that naz gas mask cyborg with the double barreled machine gun.

i liked syphon filer 1 but wasnt that bothered at 2, it did actually have weaker graphics and back then i must have had add, but the plt wasnt as good either, was fun how it was connected to one though.

been wanting to get a ps2 emulator so i could play fatal fram and siren series games, things that should have also been released on pc but for some reason were left on that pos ps.

I tried some ps2 emulation a little whale back. It's come a very long way, some games play and look fantastic, others it won't touch. I always hated the ps2 even when I had one. Worst thing is, one of my fave games of all time is on the ps2, ICO and to a lesser extent, Shadow of Colossus, but ICO is just fucking great. I hate that games can't just be released on one unified platform. It's fucking ridiculous when you think about it. Thank fuck for emulators, even if we do have to wait a few years after the game was released. A classic is a classic, however old the game is.

Thanks for using your "Will" But maybe you diddnt use it enough, you see, my ps1 has been broken for 2 years, maybe you could use your "will" to fix it? :lol:

I'll give it a go, but I can't promise anything ;)

Mines needed a new laser unit for more than ten years, so that gives you some odds on how likely it is yours will be fixed by meeee! :P

I can't seem to focus my mega-powerful mind energy, as you can see:
