Review: Antigraviator (Steam) – Defunct Games

admin361 views



Defunct Games reviews Antigraviator by Cybernetic Walrus, available now on PC and coming soon to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

While Antigraviator is certainly derivative of other futuristic racing games, it still manages to stand out from the pack. Part of the reason for this is because it nails the fundamentals, including tight controls, a great sense of speed and some of the best stages you’ll find in a racing game this year. I’m a little disappointed in the difficulty and simplistic single-player campaign, but if this is the developer’s first stab at making a racer, then I can’t wait to see what Cybernetic Walrus comes up with next.

Thanks for this review. Somehow I missed this video until now, but glad you did it.
Although the traps & boost pickups are cool,
it's a shame this game didn't have weapons.
at the end of the day, I have to go with GRIP since it has rockets and machine guns :D

Fascinating. I just decided to buy it. I had watched another review of this game just yesterday, and I got the impression that the difficulty level spikes too badly. In your review you found this game too easy. I'll try it! Great review.
@SecksyMan June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
why is the OSD attached to the back of the vehicle? That looks so annoying to me
@ILLRICARDO June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
F zero 64 without a doubt, followed by f zero gx, it's a shame that Nintendo retired the franchise... Also loved Xtreme g 3.
@hughlingard June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
i really love that dead space-inspired HUD.
@jeffprince599 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Man I sure miss Wipeout 3 for PS played the shit outta that game! All these knockoffs suck tbh... F-Zero X was alright I guess but nothing compares to the wipeout franchise imo
@Jalan.Anthony June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Reminds me of power drome, it was on the very first xbox🙂 very slept on game that one
@Phendranaguardian June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Shame about Wipeout kicking the dust like F-Zero, though thankfully there are certainly many alternatives right now.

The closest to Wipeout, and a currently unreleased title that you should keep an eye on is Pacer. Then there's BallisticNG, which is basically a carbon copy of the more classic Wipeout games. There's Redout, which is its own beast, having the greatest sense of speed on the market, and the opposite issue with difficulty as Anitgraviator. There's also Fast RMX, which is the closest game to Antigraviator, but is a Nintendo exclusive. And lastly my favourite, Grip: Combat Racing, which has the best environments and vehicles of the lot.

You talk about Antigraviator replacing WipeOut, but what about RedOut? Wasn't that a good copy? I'm considering buying RedOut over Antigraviator.
@joshuastanlick6217 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
You wanna talk about sense of speed? Have you looked into Redout?
@bdruckus June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
POD is my favorite lol
@RealComp5 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Grip is better.
@catm4403 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
If you are a nostalgic Wipeout 1-2-3 fan search for BallisticNG on Steam and thank me later =)
@bonggzilla June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
wipeout vr is place 1
fast rmx is place 2
and antigaviator is place 3
redout is place 4
@benniebees June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Played Wipeout back in the day on the PS2, and later Redout on PC. A big issue I have with this game is that the camera is too low onto the track, and the camera also follows the craft in a weird way that makes it harder to see in front of you.
@telzen8774 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Complains its too easy...is losing in the videos, lol.
@ColinJWiens June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
I appreciate short reviews, but you could've compared it to the tons of wipeout-like games that are on steam (with at least one made by previous wipeout devs)
@BeyondTheScanlines June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
My pick for best futuristic racer is tough? I have to admit, I think it's got to be Wipeout Pure specifically - that offered such a great mix of courses, visuals and gameplay - and it kept me company though many, many train trips between home and my job at the time.

This one does look interesting, but I think for my between Wipeout Omega (in VR), and Fast Racing RMX… I kind of have my fill for futuristic racing action :)
@Oelkanistae June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Fast RMX! i LOVE it
@jamergamer0076 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Fzero all the way!
@wilrivera2668 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
... I was a massive fan of XGRA on the ps2 ...
@cyberpunknut1099 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Always a fan of wipeout so this caught my attention. Get the feeling if I picked it up I'd try to control it like that right off the bat and get a bit confused. Huge fan of wipeout, the original PSP game and most recently wipeout VR. Hard to think of many outside of F-zero and wipeout.

Not sure how it holds up but I remember a pretty neat game called Scorcher on the Saturn.
@contrabandresearch8409 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
F Zero GX is blistering fast and I like the moodiness of Motorhead.
@CAPMAX_Gaming June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Would you say it's better or worse than Redout?
@shuddershadz June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
But redout.
@bilrts55 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Crap, the non-existent difficulty issue already ruined the Redout campaign for me... I hope by the time this game hits PS4, the developers will have added a hard mode.
@halcyonshow1182 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Another epic video!!
@Bob_Beaky June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
I love AG Racers but if I had to only pick one it would probably be Redout. It's fast, gorgeous and offers lots of interesting locations with a great soundtrack. I'll always have a soft spot for F-Zero: Maximum Velocity though. :)

I was soooo hyped for Formula Fusion but it just seems to lack something. I can't put my finger on exactly why. It's a weird one, for me...
@SinaelDOverom June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
What about Redout? That was a good Wipeout-inspired racer.
@RafaelWingnux June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
I was never much into Wipeout or F-Zero but XtremeG on the N64 was (and still is) a personal favorite!
@allenc3206 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Rollcage 1 or 2 was awesome
@TheMetalbob June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
there is an Airbreak button in the game you know, on PC it is shift for example
@Lasukie June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
Wipeout 3 SE is the greatest futuristic racer of all time!

This game looks great. I might pick it up in a couple of weeks. I'm unfortunately on a bandwidth limited connection so I can only download about 12gb a week when I go to someone elses house who has a slow connection but an unlimited one. (and currently two weeks to go downloading project cars 2...) I hope this game isn't very large in terms of filesize...
@barry-allenthe-flash8396 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
If OnRush didn't just come out and cost me $60, I'd pick this up too. Came outta nowhere, but looks like the most promising future racer since FAST NeoRED - glad it reviewed well here.

While my favorite future racer, objectively, is Sega's F-Zero GX, it's such a boring answer. I mean, it IS prime quality, but I'd rather say Star Wars Episode 1 Racer instead.... maybe Extreme-G 3 even, just to give a shout-out to one of the first high speed racers I really got sucked into that's, unfortunately, rather forgotten these days
@martijn260894 June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
I wish I could enjoy Split Second.
@IanDeMartino June 17, 2024 - 5:35 pm
F-Zero X is still my favorite. I just wish that damn 64DD came out so we could have made custom stages.

This game reminds me of that Wii U game, FAST Racing Neo. Which is unsurprising as they seemingly share the same inspirations. How is the multiplayer? You mentioned it but unless I missed it I don't think you commented on how it performs online and what modes are included.

Will be adding this to my wishlist. Seems like it is worth the price, but I'm a broke ass writer and have to wait for everything to go on sale.
