Have you ever seen the movie "Hackers"? It features a mouthwatering WipE'out"(Yes, the classic anti-gravity craft racing game) CGI video done on an SGI (I don't know which one though). It was based on an earlier concept of the wipeout saga than the one we know of today. Psygnosis sold a shorter version of it for use in the movie.

Here is the uncut one:

A lost treasure from the 90s 😉

Great find. Only seems to be missing the second or two of Kate/Acid Burn/Angelina Jolie getting the high score before Dade/Zero Cool/Crash Override/Jonny Lee Miller plays. 😁

I actually wish I could find a Sharp x68000 in the US for a reasonable price just to see what it can do. That's a pretty out-of-the-mainstream vintage system.
