Wipeout XL/2097 for ps3

[blackwiggle]

The cat's out of the bag guys.

Due for release 2009 .

WIPEOUT XL for PS3 as listed on IGN's new releases due list.

And at a price of $28 I think this will be a Download only.

But it's got a release date of DEC 31st ....
I hope that is wrong.

Sorry for posting this in two different areas ,but I thought it warranted it.

And at 28$ they must be kidding. I know it's WipEout XL but damn, if it's at that price I'm going on a tour in Quebec (the province) to find a copy, it's going to be less expensive.

For information purposes, the highest price on the PSN Store for PS1 classics is 9.99$, Castlevania SotN.

Great for those who don't have it I suppose. I still have the 2097 original PS disc I hope they get round to Wip3outSE on PSN though, could do with that!

(woops didn't notice other thread)

[blackwiggle]

That might mean 12 player online races.

[JABBERJAW]

It would mean 15 player online races Don't ****ing change it, The physics I mean. But at least have analog work, dpad would be awful

[blackwiggle]

I wonder if NeGcon support will still be implemented?

Now that will sent the cat amongst the pigeons,watch the price of those go through the roof [as if they haven't already] if it is usable with this version.

[IH8YOU]

So is this going to be a psn classic? Or remade with PS3 visuals??? 40 is justified if XL is in 1080p 60fps.

[djKyoto]

Yeah, I'm guessing if this is true, it will be a 1080p/60fps version of Wipeout 2097, like HD is for Pure/Pulse.

PS1 games on the PSN aren't anymore than $8.45 AU. I'm hoping it's a typo. Some new WipEout stuff could be nice...

[stinkleroy]

Oh a full HD version of 2097 would rock my world!
I hope that is the case, otherwise that price is ridiculous

[SaturnReturn]

I've not played it before, but I've heard XL is quite good. In some ways I hope it's not true. It could lead to a whole new level of addiction. Although I would quite like to know what all the fuss is about.

[blackwiggle]

Price quoted is too cheap for a disc.

Where does that leave you?

US $28 on What?

A massive down loadable 2097 in HD .

YES PLEASE.

[Amorbis]

I highly doubt this, it doesn't really seem like the sort of thing that just happen to me. We already have WipEout Pulse on PS2 and PS3 supposedly coming out within less than a month. There has been no proper proof of either of these, but I do know Studio Liverpool likes to keep things quiet.

I'd like to see it happen as well, but it probably won't. That's my pessimistic view on this sort of thing . Maybe a huge E3 WipEout party will happen, which would be awesome.

[andybob35]

Old skool psx action... hopefully it'll be a 60hz version (like XL) and not the slower 50hz version ive had to get used all these years.... (2097)

Online racing would be good, plus minor graphic tweaks (1080p... hmm unlikey as it'll just be a port)

The d-pad rules...

[blackwiggle]

It's easier for SCEE to appease the die hard wipeout fans with the requests at this forum to reproduce ,what for a better tearm's "The Classic Wipeout" experience.

My god,it wouldn't take much of a search to see how many people here have requested such a thing,I being one.

I would rather have a REALLY well reproduced 'CLASSIC" updated than a half arsed new game.

We [ Niggling doubt's that not all at this forum after the EURO Convention] are completely in the dark regarding the don't know for a fact WHAT is coming.
15 days to go till E3.

If nothing announced during those 3 days then it's back to hypothetical situations.
I'm dreading that COLIN and so should you.

[LOUDandPROUD]

I haven't played XL or 2097, so I'm pretty excited at the prospect of these games being HD-ified and brought to PS3...it'll be like brand new Wipeout to me!

[blackwiggle]

Well it's coming on to easily 10 + years since 2097 was originally released.

SCEE must be of the opinion that since it is such a "Classic Game" that those over 30 would of "Moved on" and "Stopped playing games" so that they could "re Market" XL/2097 to a NEW GENERATION.

WRONG!!!!!

Watch for the backlash fools.

Wipeout is a Generational thing,kids these days will not put the time into learning and mastering the game.
They have far to many other distractions

[Spece2goin]

Why WipeoutHD was so cheap compared to these announced $28?

hope they'll work to make it worth the money! i'm looking forward to discover the myth!

[KIGO1987]

Interesting

So there is additional content from the original PSX version to the PSN version, yes?

[blackwiggle]

Who Knows ?

I don't.

But Logic vis a vie pricing would suggest so

[0L4F]

uhm, since it was announced at au.ps3.ign.com, aren't we talking Aussie dollars?
