This game would make my blood boil, but I'm afraid that my blood stubbornly refuses to do so.

Well, some like it - some don´t...
I haven´t played WO3SE for about 10 years, but I decided to buy/play it again. After a period of hesitation and washout, I finally got it!
What could I say? It´s simply AWESOME and I´m sure I´ll never press the eject button again! (except for cleaning the CD )
After the years, I had almost forgotten about the improvements and the generally successful design! God, I should´ve bought it immediately at the start instead of wasting my time with "pulse" , but that´s besides the story.

At the beginning, I must commend the intro sequence! It is very dynamic and exciting!
The menue appears timeless and frugal - the font is characteristic. Brilliant!
Sound, setup and the representation in general is irreproachable!
Furthermore, you get 8 ingenious tracks from WO3 + 8 excellent tracks from 2097 + prototype tracks AND surprisingly inventive mirror versions!
What more could anyone want? The design is elaborated and beautiful, so it´s a pleasure to race every single track!
Well, the ship stats are a little unbalanced, but if you have a favorite ship you´ll stick to it at any costs!? Those who are hunting for records can benfit from the properties of an Icaras or Assegai.

The best thing is the control! You get the real "float" feeling, something I missed in the following WO games...and you can use the great Negcon!

No balderdash at all - just pure WipEout at its best!

I really love it and I think it´s the best of all WipEout games! (yet!)
