Eliminator sets you and your opponents racing around the track in an infinite number of laps until someone reaches a set level score – weapons are enabled but you can’t absorb them to build back up your shield levels. The new Fury Campaign, which runs alongside the HD Campaign, comprises the aforementioned new game modes: Eliminator, Zone Battle, and Detonator. From here, it’s entirely up to you whether you decide to dive straight into the new Fury Campaign or dip into Racebox to sample the new tracks, but it’s worth mentioning that everything is unlocked from the off, including any tracks you hadn’t already beaten previously. Whilst WipEout HD Fury was entirely playable at last month’s E3, it’s only when you sit down with the brand new expansion pack for a couple of hours that you can really appreciate the work that Sony Liverpool have put in – it’s a sizable expansion, incorporating twelve new tracks and an impressive number of new modes, but comes at a price: Fury is almost as much as WipEout HD itself but whilst the tracks and music are again recycled from the Pure and Pulse PSP titles the visual sheen the guys have splashed over everything is stunning.įirst off, though – the download is a hefty 700MB and that’s on top of the 100MB 2.0 update that you’ll need to apply if you’ve not played WipEout HD for a couple of days, but once down and installed you’ll immediately see the differences: the whole UI has been reskinned, from the intro movie to the menu backgrounds and music – it’s certainly obvious you’ve got Fury installed although you can switch back to the standard HD menus if you so desire.
