That's taken a wander off the map as far as the topic of the thread is concerned - I don't see a single bit of Wipeout PS3 info in there at all, just some, probably, non-gaming journalist telling people what they should think and do.

Sorry Rob i didn't mean to go off topic!! :)
I'm currently in Australia and have heard from a friend who works for a big electronics chain here that 100,000 PS3 units have been recalled from the U.S. due to some sort of problem, don't know if there is any merit to this story, anyone heard anything like this coming out of the U.S.
Hey there.
Anyone know the game Motorstorm?
Apparently the engine from motorstorm is being shared by other internal Sony Game studios. One of the games rumored to be using it is Next Gen Wipeout.
Motorstorm happens to be one of the finest looking games on any of the next gen consoles with awesome lighting, particle effects and a solid framerate, so with a bit of tweaking and some Wipeout magic we could end up with the hottest looking game ever.

What about wipeout? On PS3??? This girl just wasted her time reading the whole thread...
(Lock?)
Interesting, but unless the craft are being splattered with mud and we're having huge awesome crashes, I don't quite see how it works.
Plus, those pics don't do it justice man. It is so blurry - and I'm already wearing glasses...:blarg

Hello, thank you pac666 for another topic, it is finally official the episode ps3, i'm happy ^^!
Wednesday I will test the playstation3 on MotorStorm in a salesman, an event because I don't buy the console at his exit (normal because I have the 360) I could see whether it can support the WipEout shock the BIG ps3 :-) MotorStorm is for the moment one of the only games who interest me, then hope that he tears off the face, but considering movies HD, I think that yes. The most important think is "gameplay", wait and see in two days.
just wonderin...
would u guys get a ps3 just for the new wipeout if the next wipeout on psp was alil dumbed down (graphics, tracks etc) compared to it?
.
Concerning the earlier diversion to Motorstorm, etc.: As Rob said earlier, this thread is strictly for discussion of Wipeout on PS3; let's keep it that way, please
.
i think it would be nice if they created a game that followed throughout the whole history of the FX leagues. all the way from the original game to the next (is it FX750?) league - showing you in a little greater detail the demise and corruption of the original leagues, and then the re-emergence of AG racing in the FX150 league (yes - i have been doing my homework - after abandoning wipeout after the disapointment of fusion i forgot about the series and its history entirely) . it would be cool to see all the old craft and circuits in next gen glory - and it would also make the game very diverse and lengthy. what do you guys think?
It would make the game impossibly expensive and we'd have to wait 5 years to see it. Except by that time a new console generation would arrive and the game would have to be rewritten for it, and we'd have to wait even longer than 5 years. [ :terminal shock: ] ;D
well....yeah. you are right. but im not giving up on the idea! :D
yes, :terminal shock: is pretty much the exact description for having to go [insert huge number] whole years without wipeout. 4 or so was bad enough.
fyi
quote from Clemens Wangerin Development Director SCEE Liverpool taken from latest issue of Develop mag (http://www.developmag.com) delivered today:
"...Wangerin is sure that with the Pure experience under their belts, the team is now "beyond the notion of 'here's the planning, now lets go to alpha, beta, master, and then move on to the next part' - our plans include a period post-master now where new ideas are being built and packaged up for release.
The approach will presumably replicate itself for the next PSP instalment of WipEout and its PS3 debut."
Wangerin can't say much about either game yet, aside from acknowledge their existence, but providing "Sixaxis controls, maybe online multiplayer and downloadable content" to the latter, on a machine he says in fact "has a learning curve a lot easier than the vector units on the PS2" is what excites him.
And with one PS3 title already in the can, "the challenge for us now is to stay ahead of the curve".
Good find!
Finally an official proof for the next WipEout(s) :)
http://www.developmag.com/files/cove.../Dev69_web.pdf
here's the full article btw.
Studio liverpool feature starts at page 22 and the wipeout info is at page 25.
WOW. Great find guys.
TWO new wipeouts on the way, another for the PSP besides the one for PS3!!! I am so pleasantly surprised!!!(even if it is the same game different format.0
If anyone's interested, in the picture of the development staff, I'm the twat wearing the Chargers hat in the middle background of the crowd with a face like Beaker from the Muppets. There were a bunch of shots taken at the time - figures that they'd pick the one where I wasn't smiling properly. :redface:
Brilliant news! Even though there's no particular details. :nod
Not bad ;)
My English may not be good enough here. Do you mean "even if they choose to do the same game for both the PSP and the PS3", or is there any information already telling us that it will be the case?
What if they do the "same" game? On one hand I guess the PSP version would look bad compared to the PS3 one, so it might decrease the appeal of the PSP version. But on the other hand, they may implement some PSP vs PS3 mode, or a cooperative mode, and that could be awesome :g
I don't know what are the chances of SL doing two completely separate games. I'd say not many, simply thinking of the development costs.
I'm not sure what would be best either.
What do you think? :)
I hope that there is enough difference between the ps3 and psp versions of the game that it is desirable for the average joe to own both. I'd say a large portion of the people on these forums will buy both anyway.. but we are hardly representative.
I can understand why much of the game would be shared should that happen though.. sharing assets between 2 platforms has to result in a lower average development costs...
rob: since the cat is officially out of the bag now, and there's meant to be images or something finding their way online relatively soon... will you be hosting a copy on wipeoutzone.com or at least linking to it from the main page the moment it arrives online?
I wish I could answer that for you, mate, but I cant.
All the press releases are controlled from outwith the studio, down in London. Sometimes I'll be allowed to reveal stuff the day it's announced elsewhere (the download packs for Pure, for instance), other times we don't get anything for WipeoutZone until the horse has already bolted.
My hands are well tied, basically - you'd know if I could say something. :)
if they are working on the psp and ps3 versions together, you can guarantee that they will have some form of PS3 - PSP link feature planned. What they have planned has piqued my curiosity.
I'm sure the difference b/w the psp and ps3 version will be significant but they will be interconnected somehow.
I hope Sony Liverpool show something soon after the PS3 launches in the UK/Pal regions.
ooops - i hope i didn't let the cat out of the bag - but just had to post the news.
sorry if it trod on any toes.
Not at all - you're free to post whatever has been released... as am I, unfortunately, which means we rarely get any exclusives. :|
*images Rob watching the next game's progress and being happy while thinking "ha-ha, you lot don't know which f*cking nice things are going on here*
;)
Already revealed, but now it's confirmed on GameSpot (which means it's "official"):
Now I have a reason to buy the PS3 in the future. This is great news. ^_^Quote:

How exactly does that make it any more official?
The job advert at Frontier Developments said for three years that when you went to work there you'd be working on all sorts of exciting projects, including Elite. Guess what - no new version of Elite has been released or announced! :D
Given Sony's past history, it is a given that Wipeout and GT will be in development for the next generation console.
You will notice however, that the rumour mill doesn't have any details of the the game. Look what a surprise Fusion was when it eventually was released. We ain't gonna know much of nothin till just before release.
{sorry for the double negative, but I was feeling silly, like the journalists. ;) }
Yeah. In between late 2000 and when Fusion was released stateside I saw no new screens except the early developmental ones...and then after all this waiting it turns out to be the black sheep of the series. :/
Hi guys, long time no see. Thought I'd drop by to spread the rumor that first details and most likely screens of PS3 wipEout are supposedly to surface this or next week (this info comes from inside Sony) - so I think it is finally time to get excited!
cheers, eL
*Becomes silent*
*Raises lighter in the air*
// Hopes he has a whole lot of fuel in that lighter.
// Has a feeling that he'll be holding it for a long time before he sees PS3 Wipeout screen shots.
what I posted is just what I heard from someone who is in contact with Sony HQ every week. I guess you probably know a lot more about what's really going on...
Long time no see Martin, you left Wipeout board & Kai for too long !
You probably know that we will spend great time in MArch in Amsterdam for the 1st euro convention hope to see ya there and feel free to post here if you interested ;)
:o The ghost returns. Hi eL! About time you got back here. :)
It is indeed, now put WoW in the bin and back away slowly...
WoW??? Oh my goodness, what are you thinking of me? I would never touch that thing of evil, it turned too many of my friends into full-time basement-inhabitants!
Nah, I'm just busy and moving in with my girl on top of it. Been lurking the boards here and there, but don't have the time yet to really pick up speed again. Expect me back in action by April! ;)
cheers to y'all!
oh and Arnaud: I read about the Amsterdam convention, and I'd LOVE to go! I just don't think it's gonna fit on my schedule, sorry. But then you never know what's gonna happen...
Sure, sure.
qj says that EGM says.
somebody else on another site quotes qj saying that EGM says.
What did EGM actually say and is it believable?
I suspect we're not going to know for a while.
