I saw this a while ago, very interesting...

I kinda wish they would just issue a warning before the game starts(like Nintendo), but I'm sure it could be quite dizzifying playing Wipeout in HD on a big screen

I thought that's why they had warnings about epilepsy for every game?

Yes, but when you fail the tests it means there is too great a chance to get an attack or even create it for thoses sensible.

Hahaha! Yeah I have seen the videos, and damn it is crazy. Lights flying all over, vehicle doing first person swirls, music waves on the track, explosions, and SPEED.

Crazy stuff, can't wait to get it. But do you guys think this means that things will be toned down? Possibly? That would SUCK greatly.

hmmm...I think the best thing they could do is dim the lights a little and make a blur effect for the speed (The lights wouldn't be as flashy)

Yes, any game that doesn't have seizure inducing gameplay is a no-go for me.
I'm still anticipating this game. Hopefully they get everything fixed up and ready to go.

just add an option to lame up the colors if you're epileptic.

Been delayed; http://www.totalvideogames.com/news/Wipeout_HD_Delay_-_Official_Response_13555_6787_0.htm

But at least now we are getting a LOT more stuff, like trophies, new vehicles, other HUD options (some press were complaining about that), and more. So i guess I can wait.. damn epilepsy!
