Al, why do you rate the original version of Wipeout 3 lower than Wipeout 64? WO3 has more tracks; the TT mode has as many laps as the single race mode, nor does it apparently suffer the other 64 shortcoming that you mention. there must be some other standard of judgement or some other factor that you're not mentioning that gives 64 the edge; what is it?
