Just bought it. Where's that theme? PS4 menu system is not as good as the PS3 XMB was, honestly.
Digital or Physical, Digital or Physical! Oh, dilemma!
PSN offers dynamic theme which looks awesome (save music, which is a little bit too much for a background music), a bonus ship (wonder what's that) and AND a digital art book!
Digital Art Book, guys! Something that WipEout's been missing all this time has a digital release now. And what if a hardcopy is on the way?! What a joy!
"Each game has its own career mode, plus there’s a racebox mode which lets you tweak and customise your own races..."
YELL HES!
According to description of PS store... theres 26 reversiable tracks
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-...PEOUTPREORDPSN
According to Amazon US's description there will be a bonus ship and its van-uber from fusion/pure
"Gravity ends as the race begins! The Futuristic anti-gravity combat racer returns! Rip through the air at breakneck speeds in adrenalin fueled races that are won or lost in the blink of an eye. Wipeout Omega Collection includes: Remastered Game; NEW Van Uber racing ship; 4 PS4 Avatars (Feisar, Quirex, Auricom, AG-Sys)."
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XY6L858...=wipeout+omega
by 26 reversiable tracks i hope this will be zone tracks too... corridon 12... in reverse... 100+?!
maybe we can finally play races on the zone tracks too?
edit: according to EU ps blog there will be a online time trial mode "Play with your friends, either with split screen local multiplayer, or race online* for up to eight Anti Gravity Racing league pilots. Race in tournaments, single races, time trial or in the famous zone mode."
or is it a mistake and its supposed to be elimination? hd/2048 never had a time trial online
EDIT2: Online racebox confirmed for 2048... BYE BYE COMBAT ::

Finally!
Some more NEWS!
And a Van-Uber!
Look, I don't know what to say about this release.
I just watched the latest videos of the gameplay, and it looks like 2048 still has massive screen tearing problems [or it's screen drawing problem] anyway, the track coming towards you looks like you are traveling through a heat haze, the track in front of you looks hazy and out of focus.
It got away with it when played on the VITA as the screen was so small it wasn't that noticeable, but I can tell yo, it is very noticeable when played on a big screen.
It doesn't happen all the way through the game, it's just when things get hectic, and you are traveling at Max or close to Max speed, I thought this originally might of been caused by the limited processing power of the VITA engine, but looking at the video above I seen that isn't true, it's actually coded that way.....Go Figure.
Never pre-ordered a game in my life.
Wipeout Omega comes out on my birthday.
Just take my money
Loving the old school split screen. It's just not a thing any more. If it's online too that would be class.

Oh man. I'm a sucker for Steelbooks but I know I'd rather grab the digital copy to keep it as accessible as I did with PS3 WipEout HD.
June is much earlier than I was expecting which is fantastic. I was predicting some sort of release date announcement around E3, not the actual game!
Not long now then guys and gals.
"By buying the digital pre-order edition version of WipEout Omega Collection, you’ll also get exclusive avatars, a Van Uber ship and a digital artbook."
What a shame this doesn't mean what, for a moment, I thought it did
My shopping list:
Digital download (already paid)
Steelbook edition
Standard PAL release
Standard US release
Standard JP release
Gotta catch em all!
Edit:
A Van-Uber ship! That's interesting. I wonder if they made an HD-version of it themselves or if it was found in SL:s old archives? We'll never know, but we'll take good care of it.

A VAN-ÜBER!?
BOI I'LL GET A PS4.
This is really making me considering to change my plans...
Van-uber returning?!?!
Well looks like the wipeout lore after pure is now gonna be in need of a small rewrite if this becomes canon
It's likely just a poorly written description.
They'd make a little bit more of a fuss about pre-ordering the game if you got extra content. The email confirming it's now available mentions nothing of it.
Don't get your hopes up now.
No no. It's real.

In that case then, boys and girls, now you can get excited!!!!
CONFIRMED that custom soundtracks ingame is not supported
Important questions:
1) Is the custom soundtrack feature from HD still in?
2) Is the Racebox also available for 2048?

Hi Shiff
1: Unfortunately not, but you can play your own music via Spotify or your HD. We think you will love our new soundtrack though, it’s proper awesome!
2: Yes yes and ….yes!

EDIT: i asked this
Hi mack and o connor. just two questions. in the blog it states that you can play time trial online
“Play with your friends, either with split screen local multiplayer, or race online* for up to eight Anti Gravity Racing league pilots. Race in tournaments, single races, time trial or in the famous zone mode.”
Is this a error and its meant to be elimination? time trial online was never in HD/2048. Or is it a New game mode? A confirmation please
In the description in store it states you can play forward and reverse on 26 tracks… does this mean you can play reverse on 2048 tracks and the Zone exclusive tracks in HD? (Pro tozo, mallavol, corridon 12, syncopia) And can you play those zone tracks on other game modes now? (time trial, speed lap, single races etc)
i got this as a reply:
I think what it means is that your TT are posted online.
Online game modes are: Single Race, Eliminat0r, Zone Battle, Tournament for HD/Fury and Single Race, Combat and Tournament for 2048
In terms of tracks there are 10 2048 tracks, 12 tracks in HD/Fury and 4 Zone tracks
The 12 tracks in HD fury can be reversed.
All HD/Fury/2048 tracks can be played in zone mode
The Fury background is not in the Omega Collection
so thats really disappoining... the mindblowing fury background is not in omega and 2048 tracks aint reverse after all? ;(
lets hope they patch in the fury background after release tho its so beautiful

Disappointing they nixed the custom soundtrack feature. Why would they do that?!
I'll still buy, of course. But if we get a new entry, custom soundtracks is something we should be demanding.
Still excited, though.
EDIT: The Amazon link seems to show a standard box. How can I ensure I get the steelbook release?
