Wipeout caused jaws to drop the world over and became an instant classic. Now WipeOut 2097 is poised to take anti-gravity racing completely over the edge. Lightning-fast reflexes rule in this race n chase thriller where your goal is to stay in the lead and defend your craft against other pilots. Negotiate hairpin turns, make gut-wrenching drops and initiate jumps all while blasting your opponents with intimidating weaponry. With faster, smoother graphics, more tracks, more vehicles, and more weapons, WipeOut 2097 sets a new standard in 32-bit gaming. The Mac version is true to the original, but also offers full network capability and blistering speed (up to an incredibly challenging 120 fps.)
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The patch does what it says, apparently. I haven't had any issues getting my iShock to work with the game, nor have I had any issues with the graphics with my Radeon 8500. Runs extremely smooth at 1024X768 with 4X FSAA, and I love that you can jack up the game's speed. The only weird thing is the way music only comes out of one speaker...and the sound effects come out of the other...
Boring, buggy and bad

Update works fine
