    Default I bought a used copy of WipeOut Fusion last night...

    ...and I took it home...

    ...and I popped it into the PS2...

    ...and what I saw left me feeling hollow...

    ...

    ...I guess this is the WIpeOut series' version of Episode III?

    What the HELL happened with this game? There are so many things wrong with this game... I mean, I'm still going to keep it, but damn. Pilots? Annoying ships.. and really clunky controls...

    the graphics are certainly better than in Wip3out... but... for some reason, there was something missing about the graphics...

    Everyone has a different taste, I like the game, and even like the others. It's damn slow at the beginning, but look forward to the moment when you've tuned the crafts, reached the higher leagues, got all the very fast Mandrashee tracks and see how fast you can go in zone mode.
    I think it's a very good racing game, even if you might think it's really not WipEout.

    edit:
    and no, it's no EP III WipEout version. EP III is too dark for Fusion

    Here's a question... Why... in the name of Zeus' butthole, to paraphrase Stanley Goodspeed, are you called Kansas when you live in LA?

    In 1999, I worked as an intern for the sports department of the Wichita Eagle, in Kansas. I had just joined my Fraternity, Sigma Nu, and my big bro nicknamed me Kansas. The name was supposed to be a joke because I was always talking about Kansas, the state. However, I really took on the name and now everyone knows me as Kansas.

    yeah... it's more like Episode I...

    I think one of the things that bugs me the most is the physics of the ships... Before, the center of gravity was toward the back of the ships... now it's in the center... so the ships don't hover like they used to.

    Why in the hell are all these fraternities named after Greek letters?

    because they try to sound sophisticated, when really they are just a bunch of premature, drunk boys.

    .
    immature, not premature, i think.
    no offense meant to our new WZ member, ''Kansas'', of course, who is no doubt an exception to the general run of fratboys as seen in movies.

    and now.. about those F-Zero, oops... Fusion physics....

    traditional Greek-lettered Fraternities use Greek letters as acronyms for the real names of their organizations, while at the same time honoring the classic Hellenic system of Government... Every organization has something like a Senate that designates the rules of the House, and there are positions assigned to different members to ensure that these rules are enforced.

    Moreover, Fraternities (more often than not) are founded on philophical and moral ethics of Western philosophy, such as Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy. My Fraternity, Sigma Nu, was founded at the Virginia Military Institute. Unfortunately, VMI's hazing of cadets washorrible and they suffered great humiliation. The three founders of Sigma Nu stood against the hazing and formed the Legion of Honor, in 1868, to be later renamed Sigma Nu Fraternity, on January 1, 1869.

    My Fraternity encourages its members to uphold the principles of Love, Truth and Honor, and to maintain this ban on hazing. Sadly, very few chapters do so, tarnishing the image of those who do.

    I stand against hazing, and I cleaned up all the hazing in my chapter when I took over as Marshal (Pledge Educator). This is something that is maintained today, under my close supervision.

    Yeah but even so up ****ed getting over the characters I keep oh **** they suck and I story in the wall shove must! Must, must, must-must! Just to slaughter the developers of that game I have, but there are legal remifications of the killing of the peoples depressingly enough. Wish I could blame insanity but reality that I'm just labile is? What! Agh! Stomach ulcer is resident!
