I mean, what? They’ll just shut it down and NOT make a remaster surely

While the variety, quality and especially scope isn't great, I wouldn't call it abandoned. Especially BeamNG BallisticNG has been one of the more successful ones and Redout 1 was also fairly well received. There generally hasn't been a big presence for this genre on the PC unfortunately.

BallisticNG is awesome, and so is Redout. FYI Redout and all DLC tracks is part of Fanatical’s Build Your Own Play on the Go Bundle right now, get it and two other games for 5 $/£/€: fanatical.com/…/build-your-own-play-on-the-go-bun…

Damn that’s a very good deal. From the price I suspected that it was just another grey market key seller, but from all that I can find it’s actually legit. Thanks for sharing!

Nah Fanatical is legit, they’ve got good sales and bundles now and then, I get alerts about them from IsThereAnyDeal.

Wait we’re talking about the same BeamNG right? Like BeamNG Drive? Last I checked that game is not in the same genre as Redout and WipeOut.

Skua,

Pretty sure they mean BallisticNG, which actually a Wipeout-alike

Ahh, I see. I’ll have to check it out. :)

DarkThoughts,

That's what happens when you write comments at the end of a day. I blame their names to be too similar. lol

WipeOut was Sony’s initial first-party exclusive for the original PlayStation

It was so exclusive that was ported to DOS, Windows and the Sega Saturn

MrSpArkle,

N64 too.

Well, that's the third entry (wipeout 64) the first game was not ported to the N64

BallisticNG is a great Wipeout clone

Unabashedly based.

Guy is a moron.

Better to be quiet about it than to try and bait the multi-billion company whether they’re willing to chase up their copyrighted game or not.

Sony will just shut it down, seize his code, and then release it as paid content. He has no legs to stand on. It’s a damn travesty.

Should have just made a spiritual successor

Skua,

To be fair there are already quite a few of those. Pacer (which used to be called Formula Fusion), Redout, and BallisticNG are all already out

DarkThoughts,

Redout is a bit closer to F-Zero, BeamNG is definitely a full blown Wipeout clone. It got even the pixel look from the first game.
Still not the greatest presence on the PC for this genre, unfortunately.

dpkonofa,

This is more of a preservation thing, I think. The guy is clearly not interested in the theft or harm of the game. He’s doing this because he thinks this old-ass game is so good that more people should play it.

You guys should check out Aero GPX, it hasn’t had a full release yet but the project looks promising.

DarkThoughts,
  • Looks a lot more F-Zero X inspired in regards to tracks & pace.
  • The graphics are terribly cartoonish. It looks like its target audience are toddlers.

Sony: yes to demand 1,no to 2.

Sony should kee this series going. And Nintendo needs to do something with F-Zero.

WipeOut 2097 was my first WipeOut game and I absolutely loved it. I’ve still got the soundtrack saved on Spotify for when I need a high energy boost.

lol…. Threatening a major company with no leverage. Let’s see how this plays out.

Sony is going to ruin that dudes life.

How about this: I shut down the game, don't release anything and sue you to oblivion... Yeah, I'll probably do that - Sony (most likely)

Aesk, do games w Fan Ports PlayStation Classic [WipeOut], Dares Sony To Shut Him Down And Make Its Own

The WipeOut games for the PSP were pretty great. Shame this whole genre has vanished from big publishers. A new WipeOut and a new F-Zero would make my year.
