    Most likely yes. Sony still sucks at advertising.

    Sounds like Sony are heavily im mean HEAVILY cutting any forms of costs as possible. Anyforms of advertising would be limited at best. Im not sure how Sony will promotion there products to get there target audience now interested in the product now, i guess they are depending on hardcore enthusiasts and forums like this now

    That's why they are holding back till E3.

    It's a lot cheaper for them if the word gets out in one mass showing than to send out individual press kits.

    We only got very minimal advanced news of HD's release,and Colin said in his last post to only expect 4 days notice at best of the release details of what we are waiting for.

    That is what's worrying, I mean Nintendo did this last Gen with limited advertising and looked what happened......

    Getting some DLC will be fantastic, but if hardly anybody knows about it and then it will be useless as there will be hardly anyone to play with. I hope SL have their DLC strategy right since Sony Marketing will probably do another botch advertisement job again.

    "That is what's worrying, I mean Nintendo did this last Gen with limited advertising and looked what happened......"

    ....now the Wii is outselling PS3 and Xbox 360. Actually what I think hurt the 'Cube more was the almost total lack of online games.

    If it's new tracks, hopefully we'll get Talon's Junction, Vertica, De Konstruct, and The Amphiseum.

    Anything about the 1.31 update?

    Only for the bug fixes and not to log off before the menu and log in after that.

    I expect that DLC too. At least a few tracks.

    It was a combination of following the failed N64, lack of third party support, bad marketing, loyalties among consumers to the Sony brand, and the XBOX being
    pushed as 'the most powerful beast on the market'.

    And the GC was not what I'd call a cool-looking package.

    Cooler than the Xbox. That was bigger than an early VCR.

    They pushed the purple version, which was a mistake. In black, it looked much less like a toy.

    this isnt as off topic as it sounds, honest lance

    does anyone play everybodies golf? They have the whole concept of keeping the game alive online 100% right. pretty please take a leaf or three out of their book.

    dlc is released every couple of months, generally an extra character or a course. Almost everyone who plays online buys it because its tied into the events that are run.

    the ranking system is fun and meaningful, you progress slowly upwards getting small rewards for winning which keep you coming back for more. the progression takes years rather than weeks. along with the day to day events there are special ones every now and again that keep ppl interested.

    Dont just release a few tracks and forget about it, give people a reason to download and more importantly to keep playing. it wouldnt cost the earth in terms of time or money to revamp online play in wohd and you would be doing everyone a favour

    I agree that the Everybody`s Golf way with DLC and online play is brilliant. If Wipeout HD didn`t exist it`s the game I would be playing, but I don`t have time for it sadly. Also the way that everybody has to download the content for the DLC to connect online, and only purchases an unlock key, helps avoid haves and have nots in online play. You can always see content you haven`t bought if someone else is hosting with it so you don`t have to worry about being locked out of games.

    I hope we have a barrage of new track, not 6 - 8. I'll be a bit disappointed if that was the case. But the way things are, I'll accept anything since I'm dying for new tracks.

    WHAT?! You're saying that you are hoping for more than 6-8 tracks?!
    Stop dreaming, man, I'd say we get 4 maximum! And 2 ships probably...

    One of those tracks will be for the zone specialists I suspect .

    Probably the one that was from the JAP issue of W03 or W03SE after you got past a certain level.

    I would say that we won't have tracks outside the psp series, and probably the Pulse one since it was developped during the HD project too >_<

    I don't think there will be more than 2 tracks (normal + reverse for each one) and the 2 missing teams, like the packages sold for pulse.

    i think 6 tracks would be fair, 4 ok not bad, but it could be more

    afterall in around 10-12 months they have develop a game complete with 8 tracks ( + reverse ), 12 ships, each with 4 liveries , modes and options so i don't see why in 9 months of waiting it ends that we get only 4...however under 4 tracks would be scandalous to me, unless it would be all completely new stuff

    8 tracks are too much to expect and 2 are not sufficient, i think
    I reasonably hope for at least 4 tracks (and their reverse version). But maybe in several packs like for pure/pulse. Colin talked about great content, if i remember well. And the devs seems to sometimes visit this site, so why not a real team mode (there was rumors about it before hd's release) to formalize the "double ladder" and "world cup" events and a brand new next generation skin editor
