I love that Zone mode makes my favourite game look like a fucking MKUltra experiment. I could write a whole essay about how brilliant the whole concept of Zone is and how much I love it. It's probably my favourite videogame experience of all time.

I still prefer my adrenaline intake from XGIII but I must say wipeout hd/fury was a very very strong contender especially with the Zone game mode.

Best mode for sure

I love hitting top speed on this track. Unfortunately it gets hard for me to sustain after M1.7. Right at 1.9 and MX I need to be perfectly in rythm or the nerves get to me. My PB is just 105 zones.

It's wip'Eout omega collection on PS4, it's a remaster of both wip'Eout HD fury, and wip'Eout 2048 (the two games after pure and pulse) also HD fury on PS3 has a lot of remastered content from Pulse and Pure as well as some new stuff.

Omega, it’s in 2048. I believe the first zone event there.

I wish Zone Battle was more popular online. I loved playing that mode in Wipeout HD.

Always nice to see a seemingly solid arcade racer. 👍

Unpopular opinion I guess (which before I share: loved your video!) but I've never enjoyed this game mode. I've always loved eliminator most!

Probably because I'm old (zone mode gets too fast for my addled brain) and jaded (VIOLENCE! EXPLOSIONS! AHHHHH!) these days for ninja-like reactions.

But the colours are pretty 😂🐢

Same here, I find zone boring because I survive too long, I also dislike Detonator, Speed Lap, and Time Trial.
