It's always-on, so it will downsample.

This is everything I'd hoped for. So, so good.

HD and Fury looked great on PS3 and look even better now, but it's 2048 that's really benefited from the PS4 bump, looks amazing.

Playing on a Pro, in 1080p. It's butter smooth and the controls with analogue feel perfect.

I'm so happy

Never played a Wipeout game but looks right up my street, only question is whether to jump on board now or wait for the inevitable price drop!

What are my purchasing options for this?

Disc version is cheaper than store i presume?

Straight into Zones on Anulpha and hit 56 on my first attempt. Nice to see some of the muscle memory still there.

I'm having a hard time getting excited though. I played HD to absolute death and the prospect of doing everything all over again isn't that appealing. The 2048 campaign is structured much better, but I'm not wild on the branching paths tracks and they're less visually distinct.

If I hadn't played so damn much of the original titles, I'd be way more interested, but this is, to me, like buying the Blu-ray of a DVD I've watched a hundred times.

I've has this through the post this morning. Can't play it at the moment as I'm a little busy with work but I can't wait to give it a go. This looked amazing on the PS3. Can't imagine what this is going to be like at 4k HDR - very excited!

Got a few Global top 100 Zone scores on stream earlier, then started trying to Beat Zico again.

Photo mode, what am I doing wrong - I can't find a way to hide the text and the focus circle on the screen?

Yeah, it's not clear but when you press the Share button, Adam, the text is removed and you can save your picture sans overlay.

This is, without doubt, a fantastic release. This game oozes quality and attention to detail; the visuals are astounding and the sheer love that the developers have poured into the game shines through from the very first moment you fire up the game. I'm playing this on a PS4Pro in 1080 and - WOW. What kind of perverted voodoo did the devs work to get the frame rates so flawless..?

This is a stunner - content rich, a love letter to the original WipEout games of yore and a fair price for an outstanding package.

10/10 - no caveats, no reservations. Essential.

What an awesome game, probably more because I hardly played the PS3 versions. It does look so sharp in 4k and I would urge all PS4 owners to get this.

Genuinely considering getting a PS4 for this. And Tekken 7. And Last Guardian.

Hmmmm

This is the first time I've ever played WipEout online and it's really good! I thought it would be a clusterfuck of carnage against humans, but the races are great. This game [emoji7]
