Gamesareevil writes : When WipEout first hit the PlayStation platform back in 1995, it was a visual marvel that combined speed and technical racing skill with weapons and the ability to use armaments to either eliminate your competition or to propel your anti-gravity craft to victory. 13 years, several sequels, and two console generations later, WipEout HD follows the same formula, complete with an impressive audio/visual presentation, challenging track design, and an arguably punishing difficulty curve. The real questions here are whether the game is not only worth playing repeatedly in order to improve enough to unlock everything that the title has to offer, and also whether the game is worth its $20 price tag…and this review will definitively answer those questions.
Will we ever see more of Sony’s futuristic racing franchise?

If someone out there in internet land could make a decent PS3 emulator imagine what Sony could actually do if they put the time and effort in to make this happen for their next console?
It's definitely not impossible as we can see here. It should definitely be done since BC seems to be very important to Sony this next gen. Imagine PS+ free game offerings from Sony that could include the whole catalog from the PS console family..fantastic.
Racing games should be some of the easiest to emulate and they're still not hitting 60fps with it, to say nothing of image flickering and occasional sound issues.
Still gonna be a bit yet before they have it fully up and running, it seems, and even then it may only work for part of the library. :/
Is it possible to have PS3 emulation on PS5?yes depending on what kind of power it really has.
An i7 9700k is no slouch and the PS4 already has a God of War 3 running much better with less
power required because they converted CBE to X86 which is not something you want to be doing in the long run.
What power would be required to play these games emulated at said PS4 version?.
It's not an easy situation Sony themselves created and ultimately I believe they are happy this way because they
want you to use PSNow,that service is why you will not even get it. (let's not forget that it was a huge investment)
Alongside the death of the Killzone 2 and Killzone 3 servers, Sony will be shutting down the online services of three WipEout Games in 2018 for PS3 and Vita.
How's this even possible? I thought Sony didn't have dedicated servers according to a certain crowd?
Damn even the Vita gets hit?
Reminds me of the 6th console gen when tons of servers for awesome games got shut down anywhere from 2 to 4 years after they initially launched.
Better enjoy whatever games' online components you can while you can before they get wiped out of existence.
wish they'd rerelease White Knight Chronicles 2 on PS4 so I can play online again. That game was amazing
Wait! Sony exclusive games had dedicated servers?
Killzone 2 and 3 and now WipEout!
We know Resistance 1-3 had dedicated servers as well as GT 5-6 and MAG and Uncharted 2 and 3 and ao on and so forth.
As far as I know non-dedicated servers cannot be shutdown on Sony platforms until Sony stops hosting the game services on the platform. So when Sony stops supporting matchmaking via PSN on PS3 then those games without dedicated servers will be shut down... I did my research UKRsoldja
this is a must have game for every ps3 owner.
This game is a great achievement in console graphics technology, and what better way to impress people with this than through a downloadable title?
Wipeout HD FTMFW!
