EDIT: Seem some are taking what I said about Wipeout Fusion to heart. Look people, it is not a bad game - actually it is freaking sweet for a 2001 release, but as a jump from Wipeout 3 there wasn't a whole lot to talk about. In the same way Tekken Tag felt like a high-res Tekken 3, the same could be said of Wipeout Fusion to Wipeout 3. So for the love of Christ, don't go spamming hate against me, Wipeout Fusion is only a game and I'm entitled to my Goddamn opinion like anyone else.

I was expecting a whole lot more from Wipeout Fusion. The game is literally nothing more than a visually enhanced version of Wipeout 3. While it still managed to be the best racer of 2001, it lacked the awesome soundtrack and the delicate gameplay balancing found in prior versions.

Idealy though Wipeout Fusion does have splitscreen, a ton load of weapons, characters and hovercrafts to choose and the levels are expansive and in as much depth as you'd imagine. So as a casual fan of the series you probably won't be too bothered about picking this one up. I however can't get over what they did to it otherwise. Wipeout Fusion is a great game but one not worthy of carrying the Wipeout name. It sort of carried on going downhill from there.

Go buy it anyway if you're after some cheap thrills.
