[edit] Screenshot
There is a screenshot of Wipeout available at Image:PSX_Wipeout.png (I can't figure out how to put a link to an image without inlining the image). It'd be a great addition, but I'm not sure where it would look best in the article.
Also, does anybody know if the two drivers for each team give different characteristics to the ship? I lost my game disc a LONG time ago, and I don't remember. Please add it to the article if they do make a difference. — Wwagner 23:52, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- Added the pic. And I don't think the pilot does have any effect on the way the ship looks, except for the numbering. If there isn't any numbering on the ships, then I am probably way off. JD 00:10, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- We'll need to keep working on the placement. I think it's a little cluttered at the top, and the lead text gets a little lost; I tried a bunch of different placements, but most of them didn't work much better. It appears that you did too (just FYI, the Show Preview button will allow you to see how different things look without having to save and re-edit). Maybe down at the Tracks heading on the right side? That kinda fits, don't you think? I don't think I tried it that far down. — Wwagner 01:20, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- lmao i know, but I thought it would look alright so I didn't bother using it.

- I moved the image again, and I think the new positioning is better than having it at the very top. Some of the text still gets a little squished, but I think we're just going to have to put up with that. I tried putting it way down under some of the headings, and it just looks lost down there. — Wwagner 04:29, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- It was fine where it was - do you have to keep changing the smallest things?
[edit] The "Wipeout (1995)" Section
I put it like that so the table of contents appeared at the top of the page, rather than below the info. Maybe it could be changed to something else if you don't think that's appropriate, unless there's a way to have the table of contents appear above the text. I also reckon the team info should stay in this article, as the Wipeout teams article is far too long. JD 00:21, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
- I removed the toplevel heading because standard article organization on Wikipedia seems to have one or two lead paragraphs above the TOC, and then the rest under it. If you want the TOC to move up, I would suggest placing another heading at the discussion of the 1995 launch (third paragraph, call it "Wipeout Launch" perhaps?) would move the TOC up, but not put it at the top. — Wwagner 01:13, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone else notice that there's an extra music track on the Saturn version? It's not on the Playstation release, and unfortunately I don't have a copy of the Saturn version, so I can't find out the name. But I remember the guitar riff that runs through it - quite catchy.
The Saturn exclusive music tracks and their artists have been discussed here: http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-1841.html According to MobyGames, both Rob Lord and Mark Bandola have at one time worked for Psygnosis, so I assume the information is correct.
Wonder if someone can change the pic of the game cover art to this instead http://www.mobygames.com/game/wipeout/cover-art/gameCoverId,22961/ OR maybe show both covers
