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!
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.
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.
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.
