Agreed or a timed trial or demo. I feel a game like this would really benefit from a demo.
That's not going to happen. 2013 launch games like Knack haven't even made it to PS+ yet.
I just use the EU region and it was full for me yesterday. Geographically the closest is Australian but I've never seen anyone on there.

Knack is exclusive to Sony yeah but also not a remaster/collection. Also it sucks.

I was worried it would be flavour of the week then die off. I'm guilty of this myself. I'm probably 60/40 between campaign and online, and I'm not playing very often. Blame SFV and Dark Souls 3 GOTY for keeping me away.

I DID IT! I DID IT! NINE LONG SUFFERING YEARS, I FINALLY BEAT ZICO! 30:80 SECONDS!
You're from America, right (New Jersey to be specific)? Try the EU region, there's always a full list of games going on there. Probably no surprise about the lack of US games, given that I doubt the series was ever all that popular over there.

Yeah switching over to EU yields more results, hopefully no network issues that way.
And I'm guilty of mostly playing the campaign as well so eh

Just raged pretty FUCKING HARD
I swear some of these 10-lap races are absolute bollocks. I was hitting perfect laps and still ships just strolled past me as they pleased.

I said wow. The AI is such a cunt in A+ races.
This still takes a few hours but it seems like the best way

The AI makes some impossible movements in A+
This only happens on 2048 too and you can check it by using autopilot.
Thanks

While that is indeed some bullshit, there are like 4 or 5 shortcuts on that track that the AI loves to use, none of which you do -- it could have legit caught up.
It could have caught up, but knowing that AI I doubt there's anything legit about how it choose do to so.
Well the series signed off on a high. : (
I'd forgotten how forgiving the AI is in 2097. It's a cakewalk so far.
With Omega though, I hope they produce a VR add-on. I would pay anything.
Same. I mostly play Wipeout for single player. 2097 is reminding me how far the series has progressed in that department.

The overly easy difficulty of 2097 is one reason why I prefer 3. Its a tad harder.

I've only been online a couple of times; WipEout is very much a single player affair for me.
Congratulations! I got it the other day for the first time, too!

Hehe. I know! Playing it now.
Still one of the best looking PS1 games. 2097 was quite pixelly in the headset, but 3 is pretty smooth.

Yeah, but sometimes that can be achieved with surprisingly low numbers. Wonder how its done digitally on the PS store?

God, if wipeout topped charts i dread to think how badly DiRT 4 sold lol.
Tbh my opinion on why severs are dead is people don't cared about wipeout and that is ultimately why sony ended the studio, i know its a sad thing to accept given the franchises history. But thats just the way it seems to be. For those lf us who bought it, enjoy, because its the last we'll be seeing of this IP i can tell you that much.

It's hands down the greatest antigrav racer and maybe best arcade racing experience even it's just too perfect

Okay, I'll bite. HOOOWWW???
I concur. 99.99% of the gaming population couldn't care less about it though :/ you're just never going to see a futuristic racer raking in millions of sales these days except for maybe f-zero (god knows why) which makes the recent influx of them with redout, fast racing neo, formula fushion and grip all the more confusing.
PS3 backwards compatibility. HDMI through the PSVR's breakout box. : ).

Careful with those words friend, lest the F-Zero crowd turn up. And we've already seen what happens when those two factions clash.

Love the game, played a ton of HD online on the ps3, but the online for this game is dead. I bought it mainly for online and the lobby is like a ghost town. And the one room I join is 4/8 players with 2 of those players being so good that a mediocre player like me has no chance to catch them.
No, but if you want to know about the game's lore explaining the rivalries between the teams and league/world shenanigans, check this video out:

They could always play Wipeout and Wipeout Fusion ; ).

I really think if they had released a 2097/XL remaster with the original soundtrack it would've had a lot more buzz. That's the title that has by far the most nostalgia factor. The Omega Collection titles target the people who stuck with the series, which was already not many. 2097/XL probably would've required a whole remake though, and without Liverpool and Designer's Republic I'm not sure that could happen successfully.
Maybe they don't "own" the content for that as much as they do for everything post-Wip3out. Remember that prior to then, all games were under the Psygnosis banner and all were done pre-SCEE merger.
Not a problem for the 2048 and HD/Fury tracks (which were separated in Omega).
I thought Sony bought Psychosis out in the early nineties.
Anyway. Sony, if you're listening. You pretty much have a Wipeout game out there in name but only good to go called Slipstream GX. If it's too expensive to start from ground zero on DLC, there's already a fan game out there that can be iterated upon.

Yup, but they only really went exclusive to Sony after they stopped being called Psygnosis. It's the only kind of conclusion I can draw as to why they had classic tracks in Wipeout 3 (a PS exclusive) and not in any game after that.
Thank you. Would of regret the purchase without the 3d. Once you experience Wipeout on 3d on a 120 inch screen, everything else is a downgrade.
they really need to add 3D support and also VR headset support for 3D mode. Like support your own VR platform Sony! Anyone know how to contact the dev or the right people?
