“…We’ve just maxed the TSA Towers broadband line this morning, what with the LBP beta weighing in at a hefty 900 MB and now the final ‘gold’ version of WipEout HD (which can can categorically confirm is out tomorrow) streaming down our pipes. It’s 2 MB shy of a Gig, and we’ll be bringing you the full lowdown…”

“Burnout Paradise” should be seeing another update tomorrow too as it is to be patched to have Trophy Support (64 retrospective Trophies available).

The full version of game (including all patches to date) will be also available for download via the PlayStation Network from the PlayStation Store.

BFN,

“Those minimal, highly distinctive Designers Republic menus are present and correct”. Really? Did DR actually design them? I thought they had no input into WipEoutHD.

Anybody got any idea how much space I should clear from my HD for this yet?

@ Threespeech

With the release of Wipeout imminent, will you be changing your banner to another game that has been ridiculously delayed?

Indeed mumraa - Sony finally seem to be pumping out the content (or very nearly - the next few months are packed) but where the heck is all the advertising of this good stuff. I can’t remember the last time I saw a Playstation advert, on TV, in a magazine, on a billboard… wherever. I agree with Wipeout - that is a brand associated with and significant to Playstation.

This game is was made me buy the original Playstation when it was released way back. At the time it just captured everything the Playstation brand was hoping to be, “cool”. I just hope the new one captures that same feeling. Hopefully the jump to HD does the trick and captures a new audience and not just the gamers that remember the old game. If it looks as good as I hope then this needs to be displayed in GAME and Gamestation on a gaming pod and rather than the 360 I see there constantly.Perhaps even doing a bundled package with it preinstalled on the HDD. Come on Sony get some marketing behind this franchise. Otherwise with it being a download only I am afraid it will only be sold to the converted/hardcore and not a new market.

Last Wipeout game I played was Pure on PSP, really enjoyed it…

From reviews I read motion control is implemented well
(for a change)
Will be buying on Thursday, but hope there is a demo too..
