Just found this on Andy Davis' website as I was browsing around. It seems to be an early development screen from WipEout Pulse, showcasing an unknown track and an early FEISAR model. The HUD style and track style show that this was a very early version with their resemblance to Pure. If anyone knows what track is shown here, a response would be very much appreciated. Thought some of you might be interested in the early game look.

Yes, it's a real shame. No good reason for it. A few of the NA players managed to get hold of it, but I'd have loved to race against INFAXSU on Gemini Dam Black, amongst others.
Damn straight it's one of many. Goddamn Sony to hell for killing off SL. Still manage to find some love for them though.
Also, I'm pretty sure if you have a US version of the game, you can trade it in for free at any game trading shop for a UK version and get the DLC. But the problem is that it's not exactly stable at times with the game. Sometimes ships don't load up on the selection screen, sometimes the menu just flips out and freezes, sometimes the game loads forever, and sometimes the game fails to even start from the XMB. These are the things I've personally come across with DLC with WO Pulse. I still freakin' love this game though. It (and Pure) were the ones that actually kinda relit that adrenaline-filled spark I had for WO that had dimmed from playing Fusion. Btw, this track is a b****.
The DLC works on EU and NA versions of Pulse, it's just that it's only available on the EU PSN. As far as I can tell, the two versions are exactly the same, except the NA version fixes the Single Race times bug that's present in the EU version, and the title screen looks slightly different. Yeah, the DLC does make the menus a bit laggy, occasionally freezing up while loading a track. Awesome tracks, though.
Wow, that seems to be a very early screen. Most of the design in the HUD and track is clearly Pure, but the ship is already showing signs of Pulse's render engine, like the blob specular shine.
That's why I found it so interesting. I had never seen anything so early, I mean, someone who didn't know very much about WipEout would easily think it was from Pure... interesting to see how the design changed, though.
