    Amazing! Capturing the magic that was the beatles in every aspect, a thoroughly enjoyable game that you can tell was a labour of love. If your a fan, which half the world already is... DON'T MISS THIS! And if your not a fan, prepare to be converted, I dare you to try and not smile while playing along to these songs.

    I played this game round my friend's house last week, and it was a terrible F-Zero clone. The graphics (obviously) are better than F-Zero, but overall it is bad. The controls are under average, for the most part they are fine, but my vehicle kept stopping, even though I didn't let go of the button.

    Un juego que regalo Sony cuando hubo el corte por los Anonymous...en fin, al regalarlo supe que no seria gran cosa, pero...no fue así, es peor de lo que pensé, uno de los peores juegos de velocidad que ha caído en mis manos (virtualmente hablando) en fin, no lo recomiendo en absoluto, seria tirar el dinero, no vale la pena ni regalado la verdad, no se como compañías tan grandes gastan unUn juego que regalo Sony cuando hubo el corte por los Anonymous...en fin, al regalarlo supe que no seria gran cosa, pero...no fue así, es peor de lo que pensé, uno de los peores juegos de velocidad que ha caído en mis manos (virtualmente hablando) en fin, no lo recomiendo en absoluto, seria tirar el dinero, no vale la pena ni regalado la verdad, no se como compañías tan grandes gastan un dineral en videojuegos tan patéticos como este...… Expand

    Different than most other racing games but nevertheless I still don't feel comfortable to play this game.

    I completed a few of the tournaments but it felt like a chore to play. I don't get the praise, this is a PSPortable game rebranded! and it shows in its short tracks (shorter than the ones on PS1 games) and the simplified physics, ships don't feel like ships anymore, very stiff, very arcadey.

    The Wipeout series deserved a proper title on PS3 instead of a port of a PSPortable game with cleaner graphics which imo art design wise is a lot inferior to the Blade Runner esque look of 2097/ Wip3out.    … Expand

    This is a surprising PSN game, one that wouldn't be scorned if it were to show up on stores with the regular price.

    wipEout HD is easily one of the top five, if not top three downloadable games this year. If you’re a fan of the series then this is the best version yet, and if you’ve never played a wipEout game before, strap yourself in and prepare to be amazed.
