Wipeout 3 Review [Capsule Computers]

Dustin Spencer of Capsule Computers writes: "Wipeout has proved to be a successful franchise for ABC, as the series’ has maintained high ratings from viewers who want to see standard citizens destroy themselves in what is proclaimed to be “the world’s largest obstacle course”. Seeing the success of the brand, Activision have already produced a handful of Wipeout video game adaptations, with Wipeout 3 being their latest release. Sure it’s a dreaded licensed title, but the Wii U has enough behind it to make any developer innovate if need be, so as I sat looking at it’s name among the solid launch line-up, I thought to myself -”Why not?” Does Wipeout 3 attempt to prove itself on the new platform, or is this game yet another attempt to make a few bucks off a big name? Let’s find out."

There have been three of these now? Even the second one was abyssal with the way it used the Kinect, I doubt the "Wii U" version is any better.

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.

Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.

Abriael73d ago

Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."

Eonjay71d ago

"Microsoft allowed to probe Sony and Ubisoft"

Sounds hot...

ApocalypseShadow72d ago (Edited 72d ago )

Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.

Abriael72d ago

Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.

He is pointing out how corrupt MS is, and how money talks. I think.

KwietStorm_BLM72d ago

I would say read between the lines but it's pretty damn clear as it is.

Bathyj72d ago

You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.

TornRaptor72d ago

The games will become the best things ever all of a sudden.

Bathyj72d ago

Yeah I really doubt that.
I'm struggling to think of one I really cared about missing.

Hofstaderman72d ago

Bwhahahaha. Ain't that the truth.

Mr_cheese72d ago

The only exclusive im personally interested in from Microsoft is Elderscrolls and that's not even got s release date.

Everything else is genuinely of none interest.

OtterX72d ago

Microsoft never waits for the probing to be consensual.

derek72d ago

This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.

Sephiroushin72d ago

they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
