Subject: Trying to remember the name of a Playstation game
Written By: wsmith4 on 03/27/08 at 12:54 pm
Ok, so my Playstation came with a sample disc of like 4 or 5 different games. I remember one of them being "Jumping Flash" which I bought and adored. The other one was some sort of futuristic racing game with strangely shaped craft that you were racing around some really neat courses. I don't have much more than that, but I guess I'm hoping someone will remember the same sample disc.
Thanks in advance.

Brian got it -- Psygnosis did Wipeout, aka wip3out, and part of it appeared on the PS1 ("Sony Playstation", since at the time they didn't know there'd be a two or three) demo disc. Very cool game.

I recall both of those games and I loved the whales on the "Jumping Flash" demo!

Jumping Flash really was a very cool game. I played it for hours and hours... very original. I highly recommend it!

Was this a Squaresoft Game called Einhender or something like that? I remember a demo disc showcasing Squaresoft's only shotter game. It was also featured in the bar in Parasite Eve 2.
