I'll be honest, i am a bit dissapointed, it looks just like i remember it (HD/Fury), which i guess is not a bad thing, but i expected more (IQ wise). Still having a blast though.

Same.
On a 1080p screen or?

Having just blasted through the 2048 campaign and a quick lap on Sol 2, I think it's safe to say that they've done an outstanding job on this and I think that alone is worthy of praise.
HD/Fury were already running at 60fps with a dynamic 1080p resolution and was one of the PS3's cleanest looking games. Probably not a lot they could REALLY do in terms of a remaster apart from locking the resolution and cleaning it up a bit.

Ah I see, I just took the info from https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/games/wipeout-omega-collection-ps4/ and I thought it was exclusive to Pro consoles
Thanks, I'll remove that bullet point from the OP and add the Downsampling feature instead
Gotta love the passive-aggressive attack here for no reason at all.

Yep - this! I just played Zone mode again for the first time in years and my eyeballs basically melted by the end of it.
From what I could discern, the jump in quality comes primarily from playing in a 4K TV with HDR on with a PS4 Pro. As others have pointed out, the original game running in 1080p was already pretty clean.

I'm not hugely familiar with Wipeout (ours was a Nintendo household), but it looks like this might fill the F-Zero shaped hole in my heart.

Wow this game has no tutorial whatsoever lol
Anyway I think I'm partial to 1st person view, I'd pay for cockpit view ;_;

It's pretty different but could still be something you enjoy.

Why are there no names for specific ships?
Also how do airbrakes work, there's a left and a right one.

Definitely happy to have 2048 rescued from the Vita. The game was black magic on the system at the time but I'm glad to see the maps on a big screen.
One complaint...Is the Photo Mode kind of shit or am I doing this wrong? I can hide the help menu but
PHOTO MODE
( )
HELP SHARE BACK
Are always on the screen, including screenshots taken. Nothing seems to hide those and it generally messes up any shot I'm taking.

Streaming direct from the PS4 hardware? The OST isn't blocked automatically? Damn...

I was quite polite, 60fps on a TV compared to a frame dropping loading time pain on a tiny screen. His logic is very silly.

No way to get this theme if you didn't preorder digital?
It looks and sounds great.
Only digital Pre-order AFAIK.

They double duty: activate both together and you'll brake fast, something you shouldn't be doing
using each one in conjunction with directional input will help you maneuver tight corners without losing momentum. There's some advanced stuff with counter-braking you'll find out in time.zephervack

Can't wait to get Elite in all events but the last Sebenco Climb event, was never able to do that in HD, that track can go fudge itself.

ok and would you recommend binding the powerup fire to r1 and powerup absorb to l1 so I don't have to take my hand off accelerate to use them?
also should I be doing barrel rolls after every jump and should I be using the left analog or dpad?
In fact I'm not even sure what L1 does so far
also does it matter when I start pressing accelerate at the start of a race? is it possible to burn out?

Happy to play 2048 tracks on a powerful system, but playing all these PSP tracks for a third time is just making me extra-bummed that we're unlikely to see another new game.
The trick to Sebenco Climb is to make your ships nose point down through corners...just doing that will make you faster. Give it a try next time!
I agree to some extent. The older music had sort of a futuristic sci-fi feel to a lot of it. This seems like mostly club tunes.

On the descent its all about using dat turbo if you have one. Don't barrel roll or you will be sucked.
There is also a place to use turbo coming out of the cave but if you have the wrong angle you will hit the sign post lmao

Christ this game is tasty. Only played a few 2048 races and I feel right at home. It's so good.

Cannot believe how good this is, and for the price, £25 here in the UK. Absolute bargain. Please Sony more wipEout!
That's just a shitty practice. Retro case from physical OR dynamic theme from digital. I'm not buying both because that would make it a 40 bucks theme/jacket. It might the only bad thing I have to say about the game tho.

Might be a good idea. I actually started playing WipEout back then in the PS1 days, so I prefer digital airbrakes. My setup follows: L1/R1 airbrakes, L2 absorb, R2 fire, Square look back, Triangle camera, Circle is the game specific button.
There's some strategy to the barrel rolls, since they use energy. I prefer using the dpad, personally, as I feel I have to correct direction less often.
It's a game mode specific button. It does different things in different modes.
Now, that's a good question
I don't think so, but can't say for sure.For anyone interested here is the title / main screen.. music is nice.. sadly it cuts off too soon.

Yeah using the analog stick for barrel rolls is annoying as hell but I really don't wanna race using the dpad either, maybe I'll get used to it.

You gotta use dpad for this mang.

Really? I can't imagine going back to racing games with a dpad.
Is the dpad widely recommended?
Psychoward

why's that?
also what level should I be attempting campaign events at, novice? or elite in case I have a good lap time and don't want it to go to waste? I feel like events without other racers shouldn't ask for a difficulty level and just give you medals based on how you did. Unless I'm missing something and the track changes with difficulty level?

You could also load and complete a speed lap event on omega collection before a track on the vita version loaded.
