Wipeout 3: Special Edition is a racing game developed by Psygnosis as a part of the Wipeout video game series. The game was released only in Europe and Australasia. It contained all the tracks from Wipeout 3, and also included two new "Prototype" tracks previously only in the Japanese release of Wipeout 3, three from the original Wipeout, and five from Wipeout 2097. All the old tracks were given a Wipeout 3 graphical make-over. This game is a collector's item for Wipeout fans as it's sort of a "greatest hits" of the whole Wipeout series on PlayStation. It uses the same soundtrack as Wipeout 3.
Wipeout 3: Special Edition is also notable for being one of only two Playstation games (the other being TOCA 2) to feature a four-player mode using the Playstation's link cable and split-screen at the same time. I.e., four players compete against each other simultaneously using two PlayStation consoles, with two players per console and two television screens.
