It's retro gaming time at theaubergineroom - pop in and check out the PSOne plugged into the plasma screen, with the greatest racing game ever - Wipeout!
Single player to head to head 2 player races - bring it on. Without Beach Boy's music or surfboards, sadly.
But it's not just big screen action. We've also got a VR headset - on Sunday mornings we'll be using it to play Wipeout like you've never seen it before.
Come in and have a go. With sufficient interest, we'll be looking to hold a late night Wipeout tournament - ask in the centre or post a reply here to register your interest.

**********************
The game being played in the arcade is a high-quality prototype of the Playstation game "Wipeout" by Psygnosis. It is done on a high-end SGI server and allowed the development team to try out tracks and gameplay, before porting it to the Playstation. As a result, there are features and graphics in the movie that do not exist in the actual game, including the "high score smashing" sequence.
