By Will Bedingfield, James Temperton, Andy Vandervell and Amit KatwalaThe concept of Omega Collection is sound, following in the footsteps of other remastered trilogies of PlayStation classics – think Jak and Daxter Trilogy, Ratchet and Clank, or the upcoming Crash Bandicoot compendium. However, while those other retro re-release were welcome returns of long-unavailable home console classics, this is repackaging slightly rarer titles.This delivers upgraded versions of WipEout HD, its sizable Fury expansion, and WipEout 2048. The latter was a launch title for PlayStation Vita, while the former was an existing remastering of the even earlier Pure and Pulse, both originally released on PlayStation Portable. Yes, this means half of Omega is a remaster-of-a-remaster – but what a remaster it is. SonyWipEout has always dazzled visually, and that remains the case here. While WipEout HD previously maxed out at 1080p, here everything is bumped up to 4K.

影片的原名叫Heat，什么意思呢？原话来自于罗伯特德尼罗在咖啡厅里和艾尔帕西诺的对话：“if you spot the HEAT in the street”，大意是干他们这行的人，如果一旦发现街角的风吹草动，就应该及时抽身离去，不应当有任何牵挂。听起来是不是很耳熟？. Heat, energy that is transferred from one body to another as the result of a difference in temperature. If two bodies at different temperatures are brought together, energy is transferred—i.e., heat flows—from the hotter body to the colder. The effect is usually an increase in the temperature of the colder body. 'Heat' carries with it the moral values so many of us take for granted. Although much in the film is morally ambiguous, one may find that even when all your life you've lived on the other side of the law, you can still settle down and have a heart-to-heart. When I first saw this movie I was sure it would be another violent crime movie that I.

I kept firing and absorb the same in case i play with multiple people and they don't like my controls, i can use the default without a lot of change It works really well. I grew up on the wipeout games but I guess since a lot of time has passed since I really played them, X for accelerate was annoying. The triggers are more responsive for it.

The detail on everything from the series' signature anti-grav ships to the intricate backgrounds of each track is simply stunning, and everything runs incredibly smoothly in even the fastest races. If you have a display capable of Ultra HD, Omega Collection is glorious to behold. It's almost difficult to believe that most of the content here originated on handhelds.Unlike Jak and Ratchet though, Omega Collection presents as more of a melange of its constituent elements than distinct games. Campaign modes are packed in for each title, but a sleek, minimalist menu design shared across all three games makes them feel like part of a shared experience. Progression through each in turn feels quite natural, too – 2048 sees you advancing through sequential races and challenges, branching off occasionally but always earning experience to level up your rank, while HD and Fury break their content down into race brackets and modes.

It's a smoothly integrated total experience, that makes this cluster of games feel like more of a cohesive whole. SonyUnlike most racers, WipEout has always featured elements of combat, with weapons picked up as you zoom around. Outside of combat events though, they're of little use – WipEout is so ridiculously fast, you're better off mastering speed-boosting techniques such as mid-air barrel rolls, which give you a surge of acceleration when you land, or handling tricks like side-shunting with a double tap of the air brakes to better navigate a tight corner.Another detriment to the combat side of races is that weapon pick-ups aren't terribly clear. Perhaps it's our recent obsession with and its super-clear race UI clouding our impressions here, but it's far less apparent which weapon you've picked up. An omnipresent announcer booming 'Cannon!' Or 'Missile!' When rivals collect a power-up also confuses – do I have a weapon now?

No, you probably don't. 2048 also features defensive weapons absent in the rest of the collection. It's one of the few elements that reminds players this isn't actually one cohesive title – get too used to using them and you'll feel their absence when tackling some of HD's tougher races. Mechanically, we found the 2048 side of the game offers smoother controls than HD/Fury too, with even the most basic ships handling far more intuitively. The latter's controls aren't bad by any measure, but occasionally feel jerkier, especially around corners or through narrow tunnels.These relatively minor differences can't detract from everything Omega Collection offers as a whole though.

With literally hundreds of vehicles, race teams, courses, and modes to unlock, there's an almost bewildering array of content to play through. Coupled with the mesmerising, trance-inducing soundtrack – another staple of the WipEout series – new or returning players will find themselves completely immersed in this racing future.It's still sad that Psygnosis/Studio Liverpool is no more, but if Omega Collection proves a test-run for the new developers to handle a brand new, original WipEout, then the franchise looks to be in good hands.

Okay, that headline might be a little unreasonable. But it’s pretty much what I did yesterday after first seeing that the update bringing VR support Wipeout Omega Collection had gone live, then hearing the near-simultaneous news of a.

I’d been holding out, but after selling my HTC Vive last week as part of moving house, this felt like a sign.A sign pointing in the right direction, as it turns out, because Wipeout in VR is phenomenal.If you’re not familiar with Wipeout, it’s a futuristic racing series that’s been inextricably linked with the PlayStation brand ever since its debut in the mid-90s, particularly in Europe. It’s about driving extremely fast while listening to techno music and looking at pretty fonts. I am very into it.I was a little underwhelmed with last year’s Omega Collection, however.

It included updated versions of Wipeout 2048, originally released on the PS Vita, along with the PS3’s Wipeout HD and its Fury expansion. Wipeout HD itself was a collection of sorts, since its content was taken from PSP games Wipeout Pure and Wipeout Pulse. So while Omega Collection played as well as ever and looked great in 4K if you had the hardware, it was second- and third-hand content that didn’t really make full use of the PS4’s power.

Wipeout Omega Collection is one of the best VR games I’ve ever playedThat criticism is no longer valid. Wipeout Omega Collection is one of the best VR games I’ve ever played, and may well be the best reason to buy a PSVR at this point. It looks absolutely stunning, runs like a dream, and even feels easier to play than the regular game. Shadowbane throne of oblivion. The sense of scale as you jostle for places among other racecraft is intense, reminding me of, and the way you can use head motion and depth perception to judge corners is incredibly immersive.Although it’s established that VR games that seat you in a cockpit are generally less likely to cause nausea, you might expect the twisting, rollercoaster tracks of Wipeout to test that theory.

There is definitely potential for that if you select the option that locks the camera to your pilot’s vision throughout every loop and barrel roll, but by default the camera stays roughly level with the horizon, which I found a lot easier on my stomach. It helps, too, that the game maintains its smooth framerate perfectly even while using supersampling to clean up image quality.Most impressively, this is a free update that works with the entirety of the Omega Collection. The original release felt a little muted, so I wonder if Sony wouldn’t have been better off waiting until it could promote VR as a major feature. No matter — it’s here now, and I would consider it essential for anyone with a PSVR headset. (I would also highly recommend it to anyone who likes racers and hasn’t played these Wipeout games before.). In more good news for PSVR-owning racing fans, Gran Turismo Sport also got an update today that expands the game’s VR functionality significantly. You’re still only able to race against one computer-controlled opponent, but there’s now a new VR time trial mode where you can try to nail the perfect lap.

This should be appealing to anyone who finds the extra presence you get with VR advantageous in racing games, especially as the VR modes now earn you rewards for your overall progress in Gran Turismo Sport.In conclusion, it’s been a pretty good couple of days for PSVR as a platform, especially if you like driving things at high speeds. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go put my, um, racing helmet back on.
