>not playing wipeout the only way it was supposed to be played.

you try the Ne G Con one time with wipeout, you never want to play it with a regular controller anymore. a game changer for playstation racing games. analog steering, gas, brakes and analog paddles for the air brakes, long before dual shock was even a thing, and it still surpasses it in precision

It simply adds more precision to steering. You can hit a perfect curve and really hug corners. I bought it for Ridge Racer because I'm a huge fan, and it works very well. I wouldn't say it's a drastic improvement over any other form of control though. Skill is always what's most important. First time I tried the NeGcon I swore I was never going back to the PlayStation d-pad, but the d-pad is perfectly acceptable, and might actually be better for drifting, especially for precision cars with short drift frames.

fpbp

but it's also apples and oranges between F-Zero and Wipeout outside of futuristic hover racing. F-Zero's more of a racing game and Wipeout has always felt like trendy 90s Euro Mario Kart. I do kinda hate how it controls too, but I HD/Fury are so pretty I don't mind it so much.

I love Wipeout. Some of the most fast paced adrenaline fueled games you can play. They're fucking difficult and do not hold your hand at all. You HAVE you get gud, or you'll lose.
Grinding out Vostok Island and Spilskinanke in a dark room while having 90s techno blasted into your ears is an experience.
F-Zero is babby game in comparison.

seriously, why does there have to be a delay in turning? it doesn't add any depth to the gameplay, it just makes it more annoying and awkward to get used to and is just an unnecessary hurdle.

You need to begin your turn earlier than you think. Remember that the airbrakes are more of a "drift". They're helpful for carving out those deeper hairpin turns, but it's easy to overuse them and fling yourself into every wall. Your racing line and general track knowledge matter more than most non-sim racing games. If you come out of a turn at a poor angle, it can cascaded into the following turns and that's when you start pinballing between the walls.

Is this bait or do people on this thread think the game controls shitty? I swear these are the same people that think sf2 plays better than mortal Kombat. Wipeout was a revelation. The controls are fucking awesome, you need to learn the maps and each ships physics. Wipeout 1 and 2097 on PS1 are the best.
