The Wipeout HD Cup

[Colonel]

Disclaimer: I'm a bit pissed.

2nd disclaimer: as the cup has reached the later stages, I wanted either DP, Jan or tiduch to win the whole thing, as they're all online friends of mine and great pilots. So I was rooting for DP in his match.

But I have to say I agree with ion_harvest and blackwiggle entirely, I don't like this phantom elitism one bit. If the next iteration of Wipeout was one, really f*cking fast speed, single races only, it would be a sh*t game in my opinion, and I'd have no interest in it.

The beauty of the Wipeout games (again in my opinion), especially Wipeout HD, is their diversity. Zone, Detonator, Eliminator, Zone Battle, races at all speed classes... I enjoy them all immensely. And I appreciate the skills of the players in all of those modes.

If you only enjoy doing phantom races then unlucky, but to denigrate venom/flash specialists as "not proper wipeout players", in my humble opinion, sucks balls. If the WOHD cup had been phantom SRs only, good luck getting 64 players, never mind 256.

Sorry DP, nothing personal mate, just sometimes this place does my head in
