wow, i remenber last week someone here ask a wo HD theme would be nice, and colin answer him that he should have talked about it at the studio...and TA DAA ,here comes the theme ...what a gift
That's weird, I think I have another WipEout HD theme. Are there two themes? Mine is just the classic XMB with the WOHD style borders around (The four square corners only)...
I'll check that one out, maybe I'm mistaken and the theme I have is not HD...
The new theme looks great, and it was nice to see that there were several wallpapers included (I've seen three so far, don't know if there are more?).
I'm about to watch the video now.
Thanks SL! The Wipeout HD theme 2 is so awesome. Different ships for all the items on the XMB, and everything is so very Wipeout-i-fied (yeah, I just created a word to describe it)
These themes are so cool! I was going whooo.... what is that? I didn't see that wallpaper before! I didn't download that one. This happend to me two times. Really nice that the wallpapers are changing.
I really wish they had the making of video on the US store!!!
Maybe I'm looking too hard into it, but I think there was actually alot of thought put into the creation of the WipEout HD Theme 2.
Here's my guess as to why they picked the icons they did for each column in the XMB:
*EGX is friends column, because EG.R and XIOS became friends and merged ;P
*QIREX-RD is the internet column, because they are all about the research and development
*Piranha is game data, FEED ME! Downloads, installs, save games are all food for the PS3
*GOTEKI45 for movies! Because movies are pictures that GO!
*FEISAR for music, FEISAR has been in every game and wipeout is strongly associated with its music.
*ASSEGAI for Photo, because its just so damn sexy.
*AG-SYS for the System Settings Column, obviously because SYSTEM is in the name, and also because AG-SYSTEMS is the CORE OF THE AG RACING LEAGUE!!
*TRIAKIS for Users tab, which also makes sense since triakis is all about mutiplicity. Multiple hulls, multiple users.
Am I reading too much into this, or do you guys think I'm right? Maybe it was unintentional and just happened to make sense... or maybe they did it intentionally like that.
Same here: Love the fact that the theme is changing! Unfortunately, it can be difficult to read a few lines of the XMB (size of installed Game Data, for instance), but it sure makes the menu as slick as they get. :)
