Zone is still in the review build of the game. What was 'binned off'...?

Allegedly Zone is completely changed because of the epilepsy tests. But I haven't seen any before and after videos.

Guess we'll see next week.

"I can't think of another game that runs at 1080p 60 frames per second"

It's called Ridge Racer 7 :) It's even proper 1920x1080.

Virtua Tennis 3 also runs at 1080p@60 fps by the way... ;)

But you know, while it's great news that the game is FINALLY finished, the interview does reveal that the priority with the game was 1080p rather than gameplay and framerate. I mean did no-one think: "Hey, we can do 720p @ 60 fps"? Why run before you can walk? LOL

P.S. The streaming on this website is appalling... especially given how the videos aren't even 720p in their high quality versions. Trying to watch the Wipeout HD interview has reminded me WHY I don't use EGTV!

Well, they were consciously trying for 30fps at 1080p (or vice versa), so framerate WAS always an issue. Nice they could up it to 60.

And it's Wipeout, so take the gameplay as read, right?

Really glad to see this make it out the grid (s'cuse me).

The guys on the team deserve a massive round of groggens.

split screen forever. The sound quality when you yell at someone beside you, the only problem is trying not to play with myself.
