With Final Fantasy VII Rebirth making its way to PC gamers, the revered PlayStation RPG has reached a new milestone in its history. For both console veterans and new fans first to experience the story on PC, 500 Years Later offers a thrilling deep dive into the creation of this iconic game.

I loved all things WipEout, so I couldn’t resist to order this gorgeous book “WipEout: Futurism”, by Duncan Harris, edited by @readonlymemory.bsky.social

cOnTeNdEr eLiMiNaTeD! Been really looking forward to reading this book on the amazing design and art from the now legendary wipeout series of games from equally legendary Liverpool game studio Pygnosis and Designers Republic of Sheffield

So I asked for this when it was announced last year, not noticing it said "launching Oct 2024"! So it is with great pleasure I finally got the Feisar Ltd Ed of "Wipeout: Futurism" by @readonlymemory.bsky.social Absolutely incredible package. Can't wait to tuck in.

Wipeout Futurism: The Visual Archives @readonlymemory.bsky.social showed up about a week ago and it’s SO DEEPLY AWESOME. Every bit and pixel of design that this series graced us with, living on my bookcase. Wipeout was magic for me. The design, the music, oh…and yeah the racing.

Time to finish the year on a high! 🚀😎 In London for the WipEout book launch and panel… stunning book, great friends, warm atmosphere and all for the love of the best AntiGravity game ever. 😜

Love this book, “WipEout Futurism: The Graphic Archives”. A deep dive on the art of one of my favorite franchises of all time. The art, the speed, the sound, THE MUSIC! How much I miss the Psygnosis Team. #WipeOut

Anyone who knows me from Twitter will no doubt recall my slight Wipeout addiction. So imagine my delight when this absolute beauty of a book arrived a while back. Wipeout Futurism from @readonlymemory.bsky.social

Well this just showed up! Thanks to @readonlymemory.bsky.social for flicking a copy my way. I can’t get enough of The Designers Republic’s work, and this is one of my all-time favorite series. Sony should really respect their legacy better. Less Horizon, more Wipeout. #Wipeout

"We Have Explosive." An early Xmas gift to myself, the Thames & Hudson edition of @readonlymemory.bsky.social's awesome, weighty tome on the iconic #wipEout game franchise; I was never that good at these games, but I've always loved the visuals & the lore...
