Nice one Colin! Guess this confirms the price then.
I have to say that I for one would have been willing to pay a LOT more for this title. I am shocked that the final price is so low. Ah well, hopefully I can sink more cash into the DLC then, huh? ;)
I think they would be, just like itunes and all that, almost anything and everything a company sells in the UK get VAT put on digital download or not. I doubt PSN games are exempt.Quote:

Well, normally, I would be getting it from the US store now, because it's the cheapest of the bunch, by far. But then, this is wipEout - I will pay as much as I can for it. €17,99 it is!
Thanks for the info Colin!
I lol'ed :DQuote:

Geez i am so freakin excited, now i have a trustfull feeling : HD will mark a new step in Wipeout history.
This price saddens me in some ways. Firstly I KNOW this game is worth at least $40 US and that they are offering it so low is amazing to me. Secondly I had to lol at the fact that "Fatal 'Fail' Intertia EX" came in at $29.99 [and still is] and is less than half the game that Wipeout HD is. Which brings me to the point that had they released Wipeout HD in July on the PSN, ZERO copies of Fatal Interia would have sold, so in some ways it was a blessing for that shite of a game. On a side note, no matter what the price would of been [short of FREE], it would have been to high for many idiots and die-hard retarded Nintendo fans of F-Zero [which fails by comparison].

That says just how much of a great deal this game will be. I'd happily pay $40 for a game with this level of content, seeing WipEout HD at $20 is a testament to the PSN's aim :gQuote:

I loved F-zero waay back in the old days, didnt like the N64 one, but enjoyed the gamecube one, it had some lovely features. They are different games and aim to do different things.
Regarding Pulse downloads for USA, well this is not official, just my personal opinion BUT given they havent been released yet, I doubt they ever will be, its a bit late now after all. Why ?
I've no idea, but to me it seems if they havent released them yet, then its unlikely they will for whatever reason
but like I said, this is NOT official in ANY way shape or form, it is just my personal opinion
So we have got some fixed prices in Europe and in North America. Whats the official fixed price for AUS? Ive noticed in the PSN store Ratchet: Quest for Pussy at $33.95 AUD, is this the price for Wipeout HD for Aus as well? Currency conventer from Euro to AUD says yes.
Colin, I very much agree with that opinion; SCEA have let it slide well past the point of no return. I'm guessing it's because the downloads for Pulse were not well received both for reasons of perceived excessive cost and for the download ships not having been available for online racing.
Off topic but Colin seems to be reading, so it can't hurt to ask right?
Any tips on how US zoner's can lawfully obtain the packs?
that sounds totally reasonable, but R&C was $29.99 NZD. That means you guys got totally ripped off.Quote:

I suppose this is either a promotion for PSN or because additional content will follow.
But 18€!!!! I'd have never imagine that.
Hope to see it (very) soon ^_^
(BRD version seems very far now u_u)
The Australian Price of Wipeout HD is:
$27.95 AUD
If you guys have not known yet.
BTW what the NZ price out there, you guys in NZ?
Canada: Québec's price is 22.56$ CND.
I wouldn't know for the other provinces since tax is different.
Any idea what the prices of the DLC packs would be?
Whats the set price for the Wipeout HD Fury pack??
please be patient
you will know it. just wait!
(around 10€ would be ok)
And how much approximately will cost all-in-one (wipEoutHD+patches+Fury) pack?
My gut instinct says around €20Quote:

As Paul has pointed out elsewhere, price and release date are not yet set.
Now I'm going to make a crazy suggestion... until you read it from Paul, or Tony or Damien via the official sony blog dont believe anything you read. :D
It doesnt matter what site you read it on or who posted it, the first accurate news on launch and release date will come from Paul, Tony or Damien or via an official press release, rumour and specualtion on other forums, or on game websites, will just be baseless guesses.
Thanks for the post Colin:g
What?! But, but... unfounded, baseless speculation is what keeps me going between official announcements! What am I to do?Quote:

Thanks, Colin!
Whats the set price for the Wipeout HD Fury pack?
I wouldnt mind knowing now, so i can put the specific amount of credits into my PSN user account. bit on a budget now atm.
I've put $40 in my account weeks ago to cover the cost ,I'm just hoping nothing else comes along to tempt me beforehand.
Battlefield 1943 nearly got me,but then I had a reality check and realized that I would probably play it for about an hour of so then never touch it again,being easily bored by FPS.
i need to do that too,
btw bw. Do you use a credit card or a debit card on the PSN? Cause im thinking about getting a debit card, but im not sure how reliable they are.
I likes ma debit card. Problem is PSN only accepts Credit Cards (or did so half a year ago)
**** it, seems im still going to have to ask my dad do drop in some dough from his credit card again. ucksake.
Why cant there be a system like with iTunes where you can by some credit in the shops with your actual cash, then hit the digit pin and off you go with more credit on your PSN account.
There is, just not for you or me because we don't live in the US.
Do you mean to say that Sony actually gives an advantage to gamers living in the U.S.? It must be the Only effin advantage they give us.
I use my debit card to buy stuff from PSN.....:?:
I would prefer KIGO's suggestion since I have no credit cards and do not want any even if I could get one. Don't want to use debit cards either. All of that stuff is too insecure. Too easy for someone other than oneself to empty one's bank account.
Yeah I'd prefer that too Lance, however as Rapier Racer pointed out, we lowly creatures in the Euro - Australasia zone don't have the choice to buy PSN cards. Does anyone know why that is?
Cuz USA > Euro/Australasia...duh! :p
