Was WHD the only reason you bought a PS3?

[kanar]

Lol Leung, of course Sony didn't erase hd from our hard drive. They just all backstabbed us yesterday. As a pure Sony fanboy since the first Playstation days, I didn't buy my ps3 for hd, but I spent 99% of my gaming time on it. I bought almost any so-called AAA games on ps3, but I've always been disappointed by their mediocrity compared to this state-of-the-art game. Now I'm not a playstation fanboy anymore, I'll never forget what they did yesterday. Wipeout hd is now the only reason why I'm turning my ps3 on, but I'll play Ace-combat or Forza3 on xbox soon.

Yes, that is the reason I bought PS3 for HD.

Now, I`m starting to play Motorstorm again but not much atm due I`m too busy doing my house project, like new central heating and new electrical fusebox, which was done last week and I`m working on kitchen atm and then I will fit a new front door. Yes I will take pictures from start to finish.

Will I play WipEout? hell yes all the time, cos, I must have covered nearly 2000 hours of playing ALL WipEouts!

Not for me, since I got a PS3 right at the start. My primary purpose using the
PS3 is for Cell programming. I'm about to develop a simple computational
fluid dynamics solver, simpleCFD, for educational purpose, which will later be
parallelized over all SPEs. All the work should end up in a book for
undergraduate students of mathematics, computer science, and engineering,
where the mathematics is threated rightfully and where one also gets a working
source code to see everything in motion.

I did, dude - its bricked! no matter, HD FURY forever... or until they turn the servers off! gah!

Do not say such words!

Arghh, even to punish Sony, don't fall in microsoft's claws, mate !!

[Chill]

**** YEAH this is the main reason for my purchase of the PS3!!!!!! Actually, I puchased a total of 3 PS3s because of this game... I 80 GB PS3 and HDTV for my father, so that he could play me from long distance... I new 120 GB Slim PS3 for my brother, as well as Wipeout HD Fury for the both of them.. and my 160 GB PS3 of course... Still gonna buy a big HDTV when I get back from downrange in Iraq as well!! Otherwise, I wouldn't want such a large HDTV...

I love Wipeout and have worked hard as well to support it, and this makes SL some of my heart space... I support SL with 101% of my heart for hualing this game out of the gutter of fusion... Amen...

[Constrictor]

Yes! Just because of WipEout.

Played some other games, yes, but without W'O'' no PS3 at this site

WipEout HD wasn't the only reason I bought a PS3, but was one of the biggest factors certainly. I bought a PS3 in the April of 2007 in hope that WipEout and Metal Gear would be out within a years time, but both games had some delays, which actually helped me get into a few other games such as Oblivion and WarHawk.

I was always likely to get a PS3, but WipEout HD made sure I got it quite quickly.

I held out until there was a clear winner between the HD-DVD/Blu-Ray war and when that was clear I bought the PS3 for Blu-Ray primarily but I also wanted two games. Wipeout and Gran Turismo. Of course I was bummed when there wasn't a Wipeout for the PS3 and Gran Turismo wasn't a full release (will it ever be?). But since Wipeout came out I've played it continually since. I play other games but only casually.

+100

Except for the bit about xbox (), well said

[OneAVGNFan]

WoHD was one reason for me getting a PS3 on Christmas. The Price and console life was superior in comparison to An Xbox 360. they were the main reasons. I wanted to get WoHd once getting the PS3 and I did.

-Was WHD the only reason you bought a PS3?

Yes. Also got a PSP for Pure / Pulse.

I saw this video and funny as it is, I was reminded of the reason why I bought te PS3, so I thought I'd share it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TM3GbxaNLI enjoy

Same here - PSP first, with Pure followed by Pulse. I only got my PS3 just before xmas, and still haven't played online yet!! (Too busy, but it's coming soon)

[AG-wolf]

lol now that I think about it, I originally bought a PSP only for Wipeout Pure too I bought Pure before the PSP was even released, then I grabbed an old PSP-1000 model on launch day (and subsequently returned it FIVE TIMES until I got one without any dead pixels). I never bought any other games for the thing, though. Portable gaming isn't really important to me, and I eventually got a Slim so I could play Pure on my TV... I wish Pulse weren't so different from Pure, I never liked it from the day I tried it at a friend's house.

[Cyberio]

MGS4 was.

But this is now a reason to have a PS3, is the game which i played the most.

[slimjim]

It wasnt the only reason i bought mine there were a few games i wanted and WO HD was one of them

[Eloï]

WO was one of the exclusives that made ps3 far more appealing than 360 ( along with the last guardian ).

[Amon]

Of course not, wipeout hd is a great title but the ps3 lineup is full of beatiful games
