i must agree about fusion compared to the earler wipeouts especially 2097 and 3 SE its pants, i was totally dissapointed with it its slow, the graphics jump the whole game slows even more when you are in a group of ships the handling is rubbish the tracks are poor and very very tricky especially when the ships turn so poorly very sad end to a brilliant series that i think brought a lot of people into the video/console game market and the announcers voices god sounds like they are in serious need of some medical attention personally i bought the ps2 for two reasons fusion and gt3 lets just say i have played fusion for a couple of hours since i bought it and that was 6 months ago poor effort sony you should have payed the money you make enough!
