Thanks to guys for the warm words. :)
Welcome Piano! :)
Hello piano_practice welcome here!
to on-line soon :)
I just love the juxtaposition of using the name, piano_practice , which implies that's what you should be doing, but instead is playing Wipeout......but later posts.... sorry I haven't posted recently, I've been busy ...probably [Practicing Piano ] :lol
Welcome.
i always wondered piano_pratice was something like 'piano_A' or 'piano_B' (in english means plan_A or plan_B).
Q: "so sir, the plan_A is gone! we should use plan_B now?"
A: "no more other plans A or B! we need practice, so now piano_PRACTICE..!" :evil
am i wrong, or am i mad?
(btw sorry, stop OT lol)
WELCOME mate ;)
Greetings everyone! I'm TurboTails8027!
I'm based in the UK, and am an avid game collector, which naturally led me to acquire all the WipEout games, though I technically no longer own the original WipEout 3. I frequently play WipEout HD Fury, especially these days. I mainly collect racing and puzzle games. I'm also a computer programmer seeking to find work in the videogame industry eventually.
Hope to see you on the racecourse, whether we just relax and use it to chat, or we race seriously!
Welcome Turbo :) Nice to see a collector!
Yep. It also means I've got the odd setup of having two copies of HD Fury - on disc and download. They don't seem to share save files.
Welcome to WZ Turbo :D
Thank you, Dixi. As for my WipEout experience, I have only the challenges uncompleted in WipEout 3 Special Edition, a high-progress Pure save, 100% Gold Pulse, 100% Gold HD Fury (Sadly not 100% Elite Gold, Detonator's why) and single-player 100%'d WipEout 2048.
Yes :banzai ..Detonator is a thorn in the side.
Genre Shifts. My one weakness.
I'm lucky Detonator's single player only otherwise I'd be in MAJOR TROUBLE for any online meets. Luckily all the online modes are race-type events. ^^
I will say I'm more comfortable on Skype than forums though, so if anyone here has a Skype and adds me on mine, don't be surprised if I use that more than this for contact.
Hi Turbo and welcome to the board! :)
stevie:)
Found it. Hi again I got ps3 again finally
Welcome to TurboTails & welcome back to you! :)
Hi guys, I've been a member of the forum for a while but this is my first post. Figured it's about time to start talking. I have a ton to share but about Wipeout related stuff but I'll wait until I get my 5 posts under my belt.
Welcome to the forum, we hope you enjoy your time here and hopefully see you online for some races :)
Hello Phaze0352, welcome on WZ :rock
Hello AG Pilots, here's another old wipeout fan.
I registered in WZ a few months ago and I thought it was time to say hi to all of you here.
Now a little bio...
36 old spanish guy who started his neverending taste for WO AG Racing in a sorely missed grey playstation (the first model was I think, one with a lot of connectors on the back).
My first WO game was the one which polished the original formula: 2097. Nowadays I still own my good old WO2097 but also Pulse (PS2 version) and HD Fury (which I haven´t found the time to play yet). Recently I've ordered a few other members of the saga: the first WipEout, Wip3out and Fusion. We'll see if I'm lucky and I get them in good shape.
I don't play much, truth be told, and my aim for the near future is to play most of the saga from the beginning (trying to get the best times possible and recording the races, or that's my original idea anyway).
Beyond Wipeout, I also have interest in writing (scifi, fantasy and a few other genres) and recently I developed an interest in boardgame making.
Well, I think that's enough for an introduction!
Hi everyone,
I am actually a game developer currently working on an Anti-gravity racer. No it's not a new Wipeout, however Wipeout is a big inspiration for the project. I would love to tell you guys all about the project but this is not the place to do it.
Kind regards,
Mike
Hey all!
I created an account here months ago, but I've never actually posted. With Omega Collection just around the corner, I thought now might be a good time to change that.
I have plenty of experience with the WipEout series in general (The only two games I have yet to play are 64 and 2097), and I'm a huge fan of the series, in particular Pulse and HD/Fury.
Unfortunately, I didn't own HD/Fury back when online was active, but I'll have PS+ up and running as soon as I've completed Omega's campaign, and I'm looking forward to see you guys on the track!
Hi, welcome.
What’s with the nickname?
It was just a dumb nickname i came up with while I was bored one day lol.
I've since switched to "Mann SOI" on most platforms :D
Hi everyone, I've been a member for years but haven't ever engaged in any personal capacity. I'm Clancy, early 20s living in Aus and studying communications & media; first WipEout was Pure and it was love at first sight with that amazing box-art :D Super pumped to get back into the community when OC releases.
Hello. I've been aware of this site and community for years but have never taken an active role in the forums. I've only recently created an account, so I ask that you forgive me for my lack of familiarity with any of the users. I am, of course, familiar with Hellfire_WZ's contributions, which are many. Wipeout has honestly been an interest of mine which I've rarely shared; interest in the series is lacking in my area, and I'm fairly kept to myself in regards to certain passions.
That said, I've been a fan of the series since '95. I remember going over preview material in a number of gaming magazines for the PS1's launch lineup and being very anxious to get my hands on Wipeout. I was happy to find that the game exceeded my expectations. I've not ceased loving the series since.
Welcome, you two.
Cool to have some fresh blood, even if it’s not so fresh anymore if like many of us you started playing WipEout when it first came out :)
Cheapether, I like your attitude.
Many new entries Welcome on board :beer
Hey all. I had been lurking around here as a guest for a few months and I figured it was time I joined.
My first exposure to Wipeout was HD back in 2011, which I got for free (along with Super Stardust HD) as a result of that 2011 PSN hack. Loved the crap out of that game though I never bothered to go back and play the previous entries in the series. It wasn't until this year when I discovered BallisticNG on Steam that I went out and bought the 3 PS1 era titles from an awesome classic gaming store, and boy do I love the ever-loving hell out of them. Wipeout 3's probably my favorite overall, especially for its graphic design, a field which I had been studying in college (graduating real soon :D).
I still need to catch up with 64, Fusion through Pulse and 2048, the latter of which I've had a taste of on the Vita but will fully explore on the Omega Collection. I still don't have a PS4 unfortunately but I'd love to get one by the end of the year. And I'm probably still gonna buy it right away even without a PS4, just to support this awesome franchise.
Anyways, that's my Wipeout story.
Hi at all!
im not new to Wipeout, but a new member here and soon a owner of the Wipeout Omega Collection(tomorrow to be correct).
Cant wait to fly some races against you guys. Is here a thread, where you guys always disguas the races?
Also are here some mebers, who arent that pro like AG_clipper and Hellfire ect....Because im mastering the phantom class pretty well. But not on the level you guys do. I have little falts here and there(for example chengue project hairpin corner.....) and i have no chance at all against these pilots.
Also i dont master the tracks backwards. Need a lot of practice.
Cheers Pilots
Hey everyone, I'm Juho (great Finnish name, bet you can't pronounce it). Been a fan of racing games, sometime ago got interested about WipEout, tried the very first PS1 game on the Vita, then the 2048 Demo, watched a lot of Hellfire_WZ, now the new game came out and got HD/Fury and 2048 in one package! Also interested in getting the earlier games at some point.
Well, since one of my other main interests is anime and Japan (filthy weeb) I main AG-Systems, although I do plan on getting full affinity with all different teams.
Favorite tracks I'd say would be Capital Reach in 2048 and Sol 2 in HD (although in the latter I'm prone to getting pooped on).
Looking forward to seeing you guys online or in a possible tournament!
Hi everyone i'm Michele, fan of wipeout since pure. I love the omega collection (already got the platinum) and I hope to find someone to play with here :D
Hi all,
The name's Mathieu (call me Matthew if thats too weird) and ive been playing Wipeout since ps3.
I mainly started this game to collect the trophies but i got in love with the amazing challenge of the game.
I joined these forums in the hope that i could add some of you as friends on psn to race together, and also challenge myself with your ridiculous records in timetrial/speedlap.
That last part is based on some of the vids ive seen of you guys.
Hope to see some of you online in the near future
Hi guys,
my name is alex, I'm italian and I love WipEout.
My first game of the series was wipEout 2097, followed by Wip3out and WipEout Pulse. When WipEout HD hit the ps3, I bought the console immediately to play it. Platinum trophy was obligatory and for some reason I achieved it the same day I got my driving license xD
Now I'm playing Omega Collection, firstly 'cause I didn t play wipEout 2048, but also because...I mean, it's wipEout, have to buy it, you know... platinum is on his way in few days.
My favourite teams are FEISAR and AG-Systems. Love these ships! <3
I joined this forum to learn more about this beautiful series and share this passion with other people. See you on the racetrack pilots ;)
Hi everyone, I'm David posting from Australia :)
I bought an original Playstation on launch because of Wipeout! (mostly ;) Also played 2097 on release & competed in the Club tour/tournaments.
Attachment 10881
Played a bit of 3SE but then had ~20 year retirement from racing & gaming to concentrate on DJing, Event Promotion & Touring Artists in my spare time.
Now returning to gaming & re-introducing myself via those PSOne titles on PS3 (via original PS discs) before tackling HD/Fury & the other installments on Vita. Getting proficient with the d-pad driving technique again, and missing my NeGCon for the same reason! :P
I like the photo with both sides of the T-shirt visible in one pic. Where did you get that? (I mean the T-Shirt, of course)
There are a few players around here who swear only by the NeGcon. When you say you miss it, that means you don’t have it anymore?
And Welcome to WipEoutZone :)
Thanks! The T-Shirt was a finalist prize from the 2097 club tour & tournament in 1997 :)
I parted from my NeGCon & PSOne console downsizing & moving house 5 years ago now, and while I could order a replacement it won't work unmodified with the PS3. Certainly my preference of controller for Wipeout & PSOne Racing games generally- their use were excluded from those tournament competitions I attended 20 years ago, as it was considered too much of an advantage ;)
Hello everyone!
I'm Nopy. As a kid, I played Wipeout 1 and 2097 a little bit, but it was with the PSP-games that I really got into it.
I would say that I'm mostly here on the forum in the role of a developer, rather than a very skilled Wipeout player. I really love the graphical style of the games, and the technology. I've even tinkered with PsyQ (development kit for PS1) to learn more about the tech. I really love game, physics and graphics programming as well as 3D and 2D art. Oh and music. So yeah. Basically, I'm like everyone else. :)
Welcome Nopy and enjoy your stay! The forum is currently not very active but i'm sure you'd still get a reply in any of the threads. :)
Hi. Heard of this forum in a WipEout related thread I made at an imageboard I frequent and decided it would be a neat idea to join it. So now I'm here. I'm a Spaniard, so please forgive any typos. Also, looking forward to hear about any fellow Spaniard that plays WipEout. The WipEout scene in my country is sadly dead as heck, but I have faith something could be done about it.
