  • Wipeout Fusion! GRRRRRRR!

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>GYAD DANGIT! How in blazes am I gonna keep off the walls when none of my damn ships can make the turn? Eh?

Even the Piranha ship can't take the tightest corners without getting banged around like a pin ball! I'm using the air brakes but they sometimes actually propell me faster into the wall!

I've finished all the leagues. I got all the ships. I got all the tracks unlocked. Is there anything else?

The challenge is a joke. Some are fun...most are next to impossible. Especially the ones where I gotta kill 5 ships and my weapons merely knock the dust off of them. Do the modified ships return to its default setting in the challenge mode?

But it was a fun game. Amazing tracks....especially Florion Heights - Course 3 in normal and reverse! Talk about speed and flight! DAMN! Too bad the ships aren't as floaty as WOXL. That itself helped the ship manuever better, IMO, through the tight courses.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>I've noticed Fusion's controls are a lot more sluggish than WOXL or WO3. The airbrakes in Fusion are a lot more stable but they lack the sharp slides that let you make turns in the previous games. I still can't take those tight corners in Katmoda 12 with a 100% Piranha. So now tracks that would normally just be tough are now insane to get through(*cough* Alca Vexus *cough*)

I still have seven silvers left to make golds out of on Challenge mode too. I'm not sure what completing the gold challenge for each team does, but I'd like to do it anyway. Still, those elimination and survival challenges are ridiculous! I can't make it through 6 laps with the EG-R while bastards are constantly firing rockets at me! And I barely managed to eliminate 2 opponents with Feisar (and that was after playing it 10 times), let alone 3. Oh, and the ships don't necessarily always go to their lowest setting in Challenge mode, but they do have a preset and auto-upgraded ship for each Challenge and you can't change them.

If you haven't beaten Zone mode yet then you have to get crackin'! That mode is STOOPID fresh, yo.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>BTW, I noticed that the AG Systems ship no longer exists. Well.....I hate to say it, WOXL was better overall. But those are big shoes to fill.</div>
