I think you present some great style in your writing here, which I'd like to see more of! I like you line about reinventing the wheel and you do a good job at selling me on simple things like the "overall best times."
For someone who never played a WipeOut game (and I know I'm not alone in this) I'd like to know a little bit more about how the game actually plays. The review is a little short for me to feel justified in agreeing with your high score; I'd like some more evidence so that I can agree (hopefully) with your conclusion.
As a side note, I think it is unnecessary to close with a tag expansion of your name; I definitely know the They Might Be Giants song and I definitely like it, but it's a little annoying at the end of your review, especially when your name, "Dr. Worm" is already prominently displayed at the top of the review. Anyone who doesn't get the reference by then is not going to be enlightened by the tag.

Note to gamers: when someone shoots you in the face, they aren't "gay." They are "psychopathic."
