Like Frances, i'm one of the fewer here that also thinks BR's are OK, enjoyable in fact, and most certainly help me to achieve some of the TT's etc with a reasonable time.

But maybe it's because i only arrived at the doors of the Wipeout Universe a little over a year ago, when i discovered Pure. I never played ANY of the older Wipeouts, and have since tried a few (2097, Wip3out etc). I didn't really like any of them and given the choice i would always play either Pure or Pulse (Or HD when it's released).

Maybe, in 5-10 years time, when a Mega Modern version is released, with all the bells & whistles that future Tech will bring, i'll be harking back to the Halcyon days of Pure, Pulse & HD? It'll be my "Golden Era" of Wipeout, because that's when i was initiated into AG racing.
