The game really, really moves вЂ“ and whatвЂ™s impressive is how it manages to maintain such a high level of visual fidelity despite the amount of activity occurring on screen. The campaigns can be a little slow-going in the early exchanges вЂ“ a consequence of easing new players in вЂ“ but once youвЂ™re playing on the high-speed classes youвЂ™ll almost be able to feel the Gs. The games feel as slick as they look, with flawless controller response accompanying an eye-watering sense of speed.

While the original HD Fury tracks donвЂ™t immediately appear enormously improved outside of the significant PS4 Pro resolution boost, the WipEout 2048 courses dazzle at double the framerate and on an Ultra HD screen. Running at a robust 60 frames-per-second, this is an impressive remaster. There are highs and lows to the package itself, then, but fortunately the high-speed racing at the releaseвЂ™s core is rock solid. And thereвЂ™s also the online multiplayer suite of course, which follows the more straightforward format of HD Fury as opposed to the ambitious 2048 mission-based take.

There are three full campaigns on offer here, and theyвЂ™re complemented by the Racebox mode вЂ“ an exhaustive selection of modes and options that allows you to set up your own events and competitions, be they solo or split-screen. The aggressive Fury events from WipEout HD arguably offer the greatest sense of satisfaction, with unique modes like Zone Battle and Detenator on display. Single lap sprints are sometimes the order of the day, and it doesnвЂ™t always feel particularly fulfilling on a big screen.

The single player structure from each release has been maintained as well, with the portable origins of 2048 reflected by its quick play events. ItвЂ™s perhaps worth remembering that some of these tracks date back to WipEout Pure on the PSP. ItвЂ™s not a deal-breaker by any stretch, but itвЂ™s a shame more couldnвЂ™t have been done to unify the two experiences.Д®ither way, you have two slightly different titles with their own strengths and weaknesses: 2048вЂ™s more contemporary Formula One-inspired circuits are an artistic achievement, but its more simplistic game modes donвЂ™t make the most of them HD Fury is brimming with fascinating spins on the futuristic racing formula, but its sci-fi courses are starting to show their age вЂ“ even in 4K. YouвЂ™re left with a release that feels a bit messy even when creating a multiplayer lobby you have to select which title youвЂ™re going to play.

The package is inconsistent: its wrapper accounts for both 2048 and HD Fury, but theyвЂ™re fundamentally different games and you canвЂ™t mix and match. ThatвЂ™s not to say that this collection is flawless, though. There have been no shortage of pretenders to the propertyвЂ™s crown these past few years, but hereвЂ™s a reminder that the originalвЂ™s always best.

Whether that statement reflects reality or not, fans of anti-grav racers should probably snag this compilation because itвЂ™s pretty good вЂ“ irrespective of what lingers around the hairpin bend. YouвЂ™ll have heard the marketing pitch a million times by now: buy this one and we may be allowed to make more. ItвЂ™s also the reason WipEout Omega Collection exists: a commercially viable PlayStation 4 remaster, fusing PlayStation Vita entry WipEout 2048 with revered PlayStation 3 instalment WipEout HD Fury. One of PlayStationвЂ™s most iconic brands also happens to be one of its poorest commercial performers вЂ“ itвЂ™s for that reason series creator Studio Liverpool finds itself resting in the Sony first-party graveyard alongside other ex-British institutes like Guerrilla Cambridge and Evolution Studios.
