Best way of playing Wipeout these days? (lemm.ee)

So...after watching latest Noclip video, I was having a bit of a Wipeout itch...I have a rather decent gaming computer, but I was wondering what would be the best way to play the wipeout series...was 2097 the best one? Is there a good way to get it running at decent resolution/effects these days?

Thanks!

If you ask me, get a PSVR set up and play it that way. You might need a strong stomach, but it’s amazing.

Thanks...I meant for a gaming computer (or a Steam Deck). And without having to buy additional equipment...if possible.

I figured you meant something like that, but if you’re the kind of person who has cravings for Wipeout and you haven’t played it in VR, it’s something you should aspire to.

That said, I would probably look into emulating the highest possible system, which would be PS3 or maybe fall back to PS2 for a higher framerate. Looks like someone did some testing for you up to PS2 though: https://youtu.be/zlVWdk4i-1Q?feature=shared
