WipEout series

One of the PlayStation's earliest successes, WipEout is a series of futuristic racers where you take control of anti-gravity ships and collect various weapons and powerups scattered around the tracks to help you against the competition, while an assorted selection of techno and electronic music plays in the background.

All the games in the series were developed by Psygnosis/SCE Studio Liverpool until the studio's closure in 2012, which has more or less put the series on an indefinite hiatus barring 2017's WipEout Omega Collection (itself largely developed by many former Studio Liverpool staff).
