The only ships I saw in the trailer were Feisar, Pirahna, Qirex and EG.x and the EG.x really looked like a recoloured Feisar so I'm not 100% sure on that one. But there were plenty of AG-Sys billboards as you say, as well as Harimau, Auricom, Icaras and Assegai. I didn't spot any Goteki45 or Tigron. As Tigron hasn't made it to Pulse, I'd say that could be gone but I'd be surprised if Goteki didn't make it to HD. But who knows.

I noticed 2 Qirex craft on track at the same time confirming 2 ships per team. There was also a #12 on the side of one ship, is this implying that pilot profiles will return in WO:HD?
Dogg: EG-X looks like a re-coloured FEISAR in Wipeout Pulse as well (I wrote it's because EG-X hired an ex-FEISAR craft designer to make their new ships...) As for Goteki 45, I wouldn't really count on their demise yet. I don't think I saw Triakis either...

I noticed some team slogans.
Harimau: Nature
AG5Y5: A Friend in Speed
EG.X: Linked Technology
FEISAR: Race for E-Unity
Icaras: Fly High
I like the look of the Moa Therma circuit the best. Great buildings, nice looking track surface, great sunset-like lighting, and a jaw-dropping sideways loop.
I also like the Anulpha Pass circuit. I hope they get screens of the back stretch, because it seems like the only thing they're focusing on is the grandstand.

Thanks for the info on EG.x, RJ. I think I had seen a pic on one of the Pulse threads but I just couldn't remember what it looked like and couldn't get a good look in that WO HD trailer.

EG.X is a slightly slimmer, more angular ship with orange windows (not to my taste, but I might get used to it.) I didn't see it on the most recent gameplay vid, but I did see it on the Gamespy vid.

That ingame-footage looks really nice, reminds me of the Fusion renders from around 2001. And now we get this as a game. Wow.
Also really like the fact that there are so many 3D objects (starting grid, weapon and speed pads and so on) and the use of bump mapping I saw here and there (they could use this even more imo).
Looks like a really nice "redone" Pure and Pulse to me. Can't wait to play the new Pulse teams and Pulse's handling on some of Pure's tracks.

Moa has yellow pulse-style speed and weapon pads. Folks at SL are really going to mess with our minds

Some additional things I noticed:
Even from underneath the ships are look really detailed.
Qirex
Goteki's indeed in the game.
Goeki
Some speedpads seem to float over the track which looks very confusing to me.
Sppedpad

It just keeps on being better and better and more different track surfaces, many different looks to the game and special lighting effects. Awesome all the way!!!

It's like a WipEout variety blend!
Spotted another slogan!
Piranha: With Added Bite
YAY!

From a technical standpoint, this looks absolutely incredible, very smooth, crisp, beautiful lighting. Seeing as this is just a 'transitional' title to tide us over to the 'real' PS3 wipEout, it's amazing how much work they have put into it. However, I really hope that they return to a somewhat darker, grittier look for the 'real' PS3 game. This is starting to get WAY too colorful for my taste (can you say F-Zero?). I would love to see the original wipEout look return, but with photorealistic textures. Anyone with me on this?

I totally agree - Give us that bleak industrial look
It wont be until I am flying down here at 700+ Kph that I will be truly satisfied

I may agree for Moa Therma, but especially Chenghou project looks really good to me. So does Anulpha Pass (except for the gold parts maybe).
All in all I'm very satisfied with what I've seen so far

''A friend in speed.''
I like that.

I'm really in favour of a gritty look. As much as I enjoy the look of pure and pulse, I don't think they have the edgy kind of look that WipEout and 2097 had.
The future is too bright and clean! Bring back the darkened, run down buildings with just a splash of neon colouring on the tracks.

Yeah, It would be nice if it had an XGRA kinda feel, but I like it either way.
