My friend who's in, like, London or something introduced me to this. Gave me a ROM for wipEout Pulse and taught me how to play it. And, so, uhhhh, I mean, as is customary with these one-off obsessions I get (white girls call them "hyperfixations") I am fervently showing my passion for these series of games. Okay, so, pretty far into the future there are racing spaceships. And it's faster than F-Zero. Personally the aesthetic of these games kick ass and I think me showing you the intro sequence to Pulse and someone playing Zone in wipEout HD will convince you to try this shit out.<br /><br /><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" class=\"youtube-player\" type=\"text/html\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/lGAWYHmgo7o\" frameborder=\"0\" allowFullScreen></iframe></div><br /><br /><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" class=\"youtube-player\" type=\"text/html\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/WPgdpc7A9XE\" frameborder=\"0\" allowFullScreen></iframe></div><br />(Timestamp 22:10.)", "user": "hoylecake" }, { "id": "1288449", "time": "1681748867", "html": "Wipeout has been around since the 90s I think.", "user": "theintangiblefancy" }, { "id": "1288450", "time": "1681749632", "html": "I am well aware.
