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!
