How many GB is Wipeout HD?

[KIGO1987]

I was just wondering does anybody the size of the Wipeout HD game off the PS Store?

Was wondering if it was between 5-10GB file?

Does anyone know?

[mdhay]

Since it isn't out ( :'( ) I'd say around 956MB or over.

[eLhabib]

Where'd you get that number from?
Only info we have from Studio Liverpool (afaik) is below 1 gig.

[mdhay]

I estimated.

[eLhabib]

And by estimated you of course mean guessed

[KIGO1987]

Around 1GB thats good. Means i dont have to delete any music off the HDD. I Guess its gonna be a small title. Something in the vicinity of the Gran Turismo Concept download.

Does anyone know an exact date of release of Wipeout HD?

[eLhabib]

Yes. He is commonly referred to as God.

Hehe, I love this thread. Talk about finding something to talk about whilst twiddling your thumbs

Now you know how Star Wars fans felt, between 1983 and 1999.

.. Well, maybe not.

[eLhabib]

How very evil of you. Well, since your work on HD is done (I guess), sit back and enjoy the show

It is funny how quickly the conversations can tangent from the topic. Ah, doesn’t matter got the answer i was looking for anyway. Continue.

[eLhabib]

Exactly the picture I had in mind, Egg

Yeah we were already told that it sits at just under a gig after install were we not? I dunno how they got it so small. there isn't a lot to the HAZE demo in terms of play length and its a lot bigger than that.

Well both PurE and PULSE for PSP are really small too. The UMD can carry about 1.8GB but both games are under the 300MB mark (I'm not sure but I even think PULSE is smaller than PurE) I guess Liverpool is good at making small but very fun games

Speaking of sadistic ovoid observers of suffering, does anyone have a craving for a boiled egg?

[eLhabib]

I'd rather have a scrambled one

[Colin Berry]

you know last month when I said it was less than one gig

I wasnt lying

It is less than 1 gig


/waits for the next 5gig+ download rumour top start in 2 weeks time

[BaldyCurly]

Maybe the reason Haze is large and Wipeout is small is due to the optimised code SL produce compared to the Haze devs?

Quite refreshing if you ask me that SL are not following the MS rule of "have disk space, create bloatly code" I mean, how much disk space did Office used to take up? (I run an MS certified dev company btw so don't tell bill)

Colin I think that the fact that a lot of games require a very large hard disk install today on PS3 for very little performance increase has anyone worrying when one of the prettiest games on the PS3 is coming through download only. People don't like 5GBs install and they fear that this game, being such a beauty to look at, might cost them a large share of the HDD... I think why people say these things is not to be a rumor mill, but instead to seek an answer to silence their fear...
Maybe you should just say how much it is now (Even though it is not complete) so that people will know it's very small, right now, and they won't worry any more

[Lance]

Colin already diD say that. Twice. Right here in this thread. Where we could all see it. And yet people are still not believing it even though it comes right from the real source, the guy who designed it, the guy who knows. WTF?
