i was over at a friends today and i was looking through his games when i came across the original version of wipeout, complete with booklrt and case. i was very very happy and took it home after he said i could have it. i havent played much but i must say silverstream is really really cool. one thing that puzzled me about it is that they had a season mode whereas 2097 didnt, and wip3out did. weird.

i was one of the lucky ones when i bought wo original, non platinum as well, the season mode puzzlement also has a resemblence to the wo having different ppilots and then it stoped on 2097 and then started again on wf, as you say piggy wierd

[G'Kyl]

Do you really think that's a weird thing to happen? I mean it's probably as simple as that: They tried something new in 2097/XL, which wasn't as well received as they expected (though personally I liked it), and so they changed it back. Happens all the time. :) Also, don't forget WO3 rather tries to combine a number of modes instead of resembling exactely what was in WO1. As did WO64, by the way.

OK seriously, which WO did you find? And why did you have to look for it for such a long time?

hi i dont mean to butt ops: in but can you get a plasma bolt and auto-pilon on the original wipeout? are there any special unlockable weapons too because i remember having the manual a few years back and the symbol looked like this: +/- in a circle.

[Hellfire_WZ]

Not sure which one you're looking at. The closest I can find is the Revcon, which reverses your controls. The only single player weapons in the game are Shield, Mines, Rocket, Missile, Shockwave and Turbo. The +/- symbol comes from Wipeout 3, which is the Shield Drain.

The weapon you're thinking of is only used in MultiPlayer. It's called RevCon.
It reverses the other player's controls.

It's called RevCon.

do you have to have that funny link cable to go on 2 player cuz i just went on it and it said no other playstation found.
also can you get an auto-pilot on WO1???

[zargz]

no autopilot( aka autocoward ), no supership and no scratching the walls(you just stop dead) - that's why it's the hardest to beat!
and that's why it's still one of my favorites!
I know some exellent wipErs that mastered both 2097 and wo3/se but still didnt beat wo" yet 8O !!!!!

the only ulockable thing is a track.
you have to beat the Rapier tournament then you get it!

yes you need the link cable.

try connect it and Then start both psx' at the Same time!

no need to tell you you need another wo" cd in the other psx as well, right?

[piranha wiper]

zargz, thats the reason why i lie it so much and secided to put a time table for it, yeah the first game is pretty basic, your craft doesnt blow up, ehich could be taken as a goood or bad thing
