That's sad.

I hope not.

Ok, you asked, I bought Wipeout2097, but not HereticII, because I have asked a
few times here how to get the demo working so that I can play past the
tutorial section. I wanted to start it from early startup screen, and had a
couple of problems, but received no answers. So unless I can play the rest of
the demo,
I have no idea what it will be like on my system. And of course don't know if
I will buy it, though I do like what I have seen so far.

The other problem, is that I have 64 meg fast mem, but really need more, but
problems finding 64's or 128's at the price I can afford atm.
