A nearly perfect experience. Feel the Pulse.

Wipeout Pulse is undeniably cool, and the best in the series to date.

Wipeout Pulse is undoubtedly the greatest racing game on the PSP, if not the greatest game ever made.

Same-old, same-old, which means slick, challenging and extra packed online content!

Add to this equation a staggering variety of weapons (with accompanying cryptic icons) all capable of reducing your fellow competitors to fused hunks of flaming track detritus, a masterfully produced techno soundtrack and some clever online features and you've got a game that has essentially taken up permanent residence in our PSPs.

The gameplay is very tight and easy to get into, whether you're going solo through Campaign or Racebox or challenging others through AdHoc and Infrastructure. The downloadable content is hot, too. It may not be easy, but this Pulse definitely rates high.

This is the best WipEout game to date, make no bones about it.

WipEout Pulse is, by far, one of the most enjoyable and addictive racing games to come along for the PSP this year. It’s a fast-paced, unforgiving and intense racing that will surely please fans of the racing game genre even with the lack of racetracks.

So yes, I'm a big whiner about the new way the game throws all its different modes at you during the career progression, but custom soundtracks, online play, tons of subtle little tweaks to the handling, track design, weapons and even a few elements borrowed from past games all add up to one of the most insanely packed offerings on the PSP right now.

If you're a fan of the fast paced racing then WipEout Pulse is a must have for your PSP.
