Warnings

The Mac OS X version of this game does not work on Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7) or later due to the removal of support for PowerPC apps.

Key points

Released as Wipeout XL in North America.
Unfavorable compared to the PlayStation version in many ways. The graphics, although supports higher resolutions, look worse than the PlayStation version, has lower-quality compressed audio, and the game runs too fast if the refresh-rate is above 30 Hz.[2]
Pressing Alt+Tab also causes the game's controls to not work when going in and out of focus.
