Legendary futuristic racing game that made gaming cool again. Wipeout was probably the first game that demonstrated the true power of the Playstation when compared to its rivals.
Players were given a choice of futuristic ships to fly around various courses at breakneck speeds. Special pads were placed on each track and flying over them granted the player access to various weapons and power ups.
The soundtrack was made up of licensed dance songs from various dance artists and provided an atmosphere that no other racer ever had.
The game was a system seller for Sony's new machine and a demo was included on the game disc packed in with every machine.
