I'm not good with German, but this is interesting...
Written on UK Pure UMD: Ohne Alterbeschränkung
Written on UK Pulse UMD: Frei ab 12 Jahre

any help here?
I hadn't seen these slogans before and thought it was interesting...
the second is easy- more or less "Free for 12 Years" referring to the 12th anniversary of Wipeout, but no clue on the first.

I ran a scan of all my discs today as I was behind a few, so you can see it here:

Babel Fish says the Pure one means "Without restriction of age", so maybe the Pulse one means it's for people aged 12+ in the UK, although it says 3+ on the box :lol! My Pulse UMD (UK) says it too. Strange that it's in German though.

I thought that initially too, but then i saw the other one, and literal translation of "free for 12 years".. well.. pulse DID ship in 2007.. so that makes sense.. i don't think it has to do with 12 year old players...

These UMD's are probably meant to be sold in Germany too. This way they would only have to change the leaflet in UMD case.
