I'll do my best!
As a side note, this thread has reached 50,000 views. :rock
Is that an upside note or a downside note? :D
Well it's somewhere on the side. I can't really say where though. Maybe it's diagonally to the side, in one of four possible spots? Or between the diagonals and the vertical/horizontal, in one of the eight possible spots? I don't know...
PS: If there was a reference to something I obviously didn't get it.
Indeed I do. Utica to be exact.Quote:

On-topic: Can't wait for Sept., or is it Oct.? Ahh, well, whenever.
*does a 50,000 dance*...whatever that looks like...
so...this PAX 2008 thing looks promising...new videos???
with all that 3D model data of the craft floating around...(no pun intended)...I was thinking today that it wouldn't be difficult at all for Studio Liverpool to upload that data into say maybe Objet, or any other nice 3D printers or rapid prototypers and make some cool models of the craft...
finish the model off with some nice sanding and airbrush work...(burn marks from missiles and whatnot included)
get some perspex...cut it into a nice little stand...suspend the model on it...
voila...WipEout HD collectible model...
I would pay whatever price.
Yeah I'd definately like some wipeout collectable ship models... id pay just about anything also, especially if they levitated above their stand or something. I laugh thinking about what id pay for wipeout hd right now... I just spent 60 dollars on three wipeout hd t-shirts alone...
Oh what a great idea. Wipeout collection ships. Maybe they could hover by using magnets. That'd look really cool!
I'm sure one model was made back in the days, like 10 years ago or something (maybe Colin can confirm). It was litteraly floating, thanks to a magnet. But i don't think it has ever been commercialised :(
If I lived in Seattle still I would definitely go to PAX to try the game! Totally worth missing work or whatever.
I think there are lots of Wipers in this area :)Quote:

Jabberjaw lives east of New York state-- Vermont is it?
Lots of potential to meet wipers in person (though unfortunately I haven't had a chance yet because of work demands :( )
Heh, true enough ;)Quote:

Just spent a VERY long time reading this whole thred lol, i'm gutted i never knew about this forum as i've been a Wipeout fan since PS1 days. i even kept my wipeout fusion, about the only game i did keep other than TT when giving my PS2 to my other halfs kid sister (HER BRIGHT IDEA). But its taking so long and it seems so close i cant bring my self to re-play it any more...I just want WOHD sooooo bad. Its getting bad when u finish work and the first thing u do is check the PSN, and that been going on for far to long...my worry is when were all done with WOHD what next?? we would all sell our grans for this game (or just maybe me) so when were wanting more were gonna be expecting something unlike anything SL can pull off at the mo, but just to think with the expirience and advance in devs for the game it could make WOHD look dated...ok i'm just really wanting this to come out next thurs....Oh and grat forum guys:beer
Much like this floating globe!! Only their would be several magnets on one big grid that connect like a puzzle peice, or that can be taken apart and seperated throuthout the room if you wanted... saweet idea... ;):Quote:

I'll be going to the convention tomorrow boys... get their at eleven and try to hang out all day unless it gets boring lol...
Huge warm welcome Flashbax!!! Wow that is unbelievable that you're that much of a fan and it's been that long since you've discovered this site... welcome!!
Welcome to the WZ, flashbax. If you ever read all of the WZ threads, you would have not my sympathy but my stunned admiration. It was a lot easier to do when I joined the original forum and read it all, but that old version is gone now except possibly on one of AmigoJack's harddrives. Enjoy the now. :D
Started to read the Release date thread the day i joined, think it was thurs. Its not to busy at work so i just sat and read as much as i could (to avoid eyes bleeding) in between work and finished last night. Back on topic, well kinda. The latest firmware is going to have the ability to take pics from games your playing, i think it was called screen grab? now i'm thinking this is due out soon and maybe will be around the same time we get WOHD and if so the 2 of them could make for some serious images to show your mates...
WOHD has a Photo Mode anyway :)
Yeah I have to admit...I really like the way these forums have evolved over the years...and it's even nicer to see SL gracing us with their presence on the forums every now and then...Quote:

Hey guys, I'm spanking new to this forum, and I'm sorry for asking so much from you guys without contributing much to this forum, but I really need your help.
Just an answer to this question:
If you were a betting man, when do you think WO:HD would be released?
Obviously on a Tuesday because most new games are released every Tuesday. Secondly, most likely in September here due to the recent news.
I'm asking because I'm heading an initiative on a multiconsole forum, where we have all resident electronic musicians creating an album SPECIFICALLY for Wipeout:HD. We've actually released 2 albums before, with general themes, but we're all excited for Wipeout (got a lot of us into this sort of music to begin with) and thought that this project would be perfect.
We started around a month ago thinking, "Yeah we got a lot of time, the game is probably delayed until December, we can even work on a couple of tracks" because the news reports all hinted at a 6 month delay into December. But because of this news everyone is scrambling to get their stuff done.
So I set a new timeline where we have to be done by the 23rd of September...what do you guys think?
It's funny, I've been waiting for this game FOREVER, and the second I hear news it's coming out so very soon, I'm actually stressed rather than relieved!
