BallisticNG Reviews

Very cool Wipeout clone would definitely recommend to fans

Played this game off and on for about 4 years now, about time I write a review. I have no experience playing any of the games that BallisticNG is inspired by, I decided to pick up the game solely because the gameplay looked interesting. Flash forward four years, this game is the shit. I'm consistently coming back to either work on completing the game's campaigns, or just because I want to get some races in. The core race mode is what I tend to play, but the amount of different modes or ways to change how you play is absurd. And that's not even including the amount of modding support this game has. If you're a fan of racing games and just want something that kicks ass, buy the game.

In a 1999 interview for VH1's Behind The Music, Mark Mothersbaugh stated "I was in shock. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever heard. He sort of re-sculpted that song into something else and... I hate him for it, basically." In reference to hearing Weird Al Yankovic's "Dare To Be Stupid". A sentence that, I'm certain, any former Psygnosis dev would echo were they to ever play this masterpiece. Buy it. It's good. What are you waiting for?

Ship handling can take a while to get used to, but once you get familiar with them this game is very fun to play.

A flash back to the old Anti Gravity racing from the 90's. Its easy to run on pretty much any hardware but still manages to catch a great look and feel. Easy to get into and even easier for old wipeout players to just plug in a controller and zip around like you never left. Witch a nice techno beat soundtrack you will feel right at home. And not to forget, support for linux. A+ for that. My recommendation for anyone looking for a fastpaced racing game.

I got into Wipeout a few months ago and 100% every game in the series since - this one is a strong contender for being the best one, despite not being a part of the series despite me playing just for a few hours. It just feels right. Blatant rip-off, but in the best way possible. Neognosis does what Sony...n't

Total flashback to WipeOut. SO much so that it's satisfies that nostalgia perfectly. There are no alterations to the formula, obvious quality of life updates, but there is little changed from the classic inspiration. The music tracks are fitting, the controls are just as crazy, and the weapons are just as meh as the original (yeah, weapons aren't really all that special). Of course, who cares that the weapons are meh. The bread and butter to this all is the crazy racing experience. RedOut and FlashOut are nice modern takes, but BallistiCNg nailed it perfectly.

Easily the best Spiritual Successor to WipEout and Jet Moto, even including options to play post-F9000. Well worth the purchase. It even includes a Track Editor, something I felt was missing in the WipEout Omega Collection.

I had some money left over from a gift card, didn't want to hook up my playstation just to play the Omega Collection, and saw that this was like Classic Wipeout. Holy hell. It's like I picked up XL for the first time again, but so much smoother. I felt right at home with it, and it still amazes me how good it feels to race. Right down to the downright brutal AI. Very easy to mod the game, and they even have a guide for it in the documentation. I immediately went for the classic Wipeout teams without delay. I think I saw that this was a 2 person dev team? Take a bow, both of you. This was a clear labor of love for the series it's cloning, and absolutely deserves the Overwhelmingly Positive I see on its store page. PLEASE pick this up it's so good.

honestly one of the best racing games I've ever played a full fledged career mode, quick race, online and even split screen local multiplayer options across a variety of game modes with workshop compatibility for adding new ships and tracks to the game beyond the vanilla package and it's DLCs. if you enjoy arcade racing games you should get this one
