I spent a good majority of my day today playing through Wipeout HD on the PlayStation 3. The game plays really well, with improved handling since I encountered it earlier in the year. I’d say I made it about halfway through the single-player campaign during the day, the highlight of which was becoming the number one ranked player in the world in a number of races. Sadly, I doubt that will last even ten minutes once the game is released later this month.
Anyway, I took a number of videos as I was playing, so ahead of the review, gorge yourself on some of these rather fine videos for a taste of the finished game.

Wow this looks great, I cannot wait to play this game.
What are the six axis controls like?

They’re ok…if you like using them for Motorstorm then they’re worth a try. I think the Wipeout elite will stick with standard controls though.

I’m not an elite and I haven’t played Motorstorm but so far my experiences with the Six Axis have been less than enjoyable, I think I’ll stick with the standard controls - I’ll give them a try though.
