I bought this game, because it was on Gamespot's Greatest Games of All Time list. The game itself is amazing! It's fast, it's fun, and has excellent replay value; however, this game requires that you have two different discs along with two different playstation consoles linked together in order to do multiplayer... What's up with that!!! This game would have been simple to provide split-screen for, so why did they have to make multiplayer so friggin' complicated and expensive. The chances of you finding another friend with a playstation 1 and another copy of Wipeout XL is almost zero! I wanted to play my brother in this game so bad, and I can't because it requires a friggin' console link! That's just bogus!
