Pulse interviews.

Just saw them in the background of the photo :)

Nothing gets past you, eh Max?

That's my monitor in the foreground... I wonder why they cropped out someone as handsome as me? ;) :D

- editor which allows to create own skins for your craft
- 12 teams, 8 from beginning (Feisar, AG-Systems, Assegai, Qirex, Piranha, Triakis, Goteki45 and EG-X), 4 downloadable (Auricom, Harimau, Icaras and Mirage)
- alternative routes named "Skill Cuts" = short cuts that are just useful if you really have the skill to manage them (as complicated as Anulpha Pass's chicane)
- three new weapons for eliminator mode (Leach Beam, Repulsor and Shirkan)
- AI refined
- Racebox mode = create your own races
- Race Campaign mode = career mode (Clarko explained that already I think -> based on grids)
- skill of the AI is adjustable
- profile, record and ingame-screenshot upload to official website
- not sure yet if there is region-specific content again - Colin hopes not.
- loyalty points for each team - gain these and you get team specific extras. e.g.: fly many races with Feisar and earn lots of Feisar points = many Feisar related extras
- 1st track named "Talons Junction"
- Vector cut out

So sweet!

Skill cuts, loyalty points and, erm, Icaras (:g) are what first impacted my eye. Loyalty points sound like the secret dream of many of us here... at least of many among those displaying a team-specific avatar... although I can already hear the multiplayer-related screams of rage (it's gonna be FUN :g).

Also Career mode sounds like a realistic improvement.

Oh, and the uploads to the official site.

And all the rest. But I really wonder about them loyalty points, and the extras. Additional liveries? Additional skins? SHIP UPGRADES by any chance?

Don't hurt me, but with EG-X, Mag Locks, loyalty mechanics and the additional weapons Pulse is starting to sound to me like Fusion done the right way. Life's sweet once again. Thank you Studio Liverpool.

According to Colin there will be none. :)

That photographer is sitting in MY CHAIR!

I thought they'd retire it for posterity...

We're not even in that room any more - we're in the big room through the hallway from it. Your chair has, in fact, been retired. :D ;)

Actually we covered it in petrol and burnt it

Unfortunately it was a week too late, and you'd left by the time we lit the match

but we are back in the room of life as opposed the room of doom

uhm... back on topic... there should be something on IGN soonish (it was written last week)

"The best way to enslave people is to make them believe they're free."

True, very true...

My quote of the day would be...

"The best way to defeat an enemy is to make him your ally":D

Nice picture there Max! Waiting for new evidence to show up from you Maximilian Sherlock. :+

The best way to make a pig fly is to put him in an airplane.

Sounds excellent :+ It will be interesting to see what the loyalty points get you and Talons Junction is an excellent track name :D

On a slightly different note, Colin you remind me of Ricky Gervais

Ah patience, something us wipers gave up when we succumbed to the original PSX game the first time we laid eyes on it.

^ And leading up to the release of Wipeout Fusion.

Thankfully Gran Turismo 3 held me over until then...

Was waiting Pure since 2000...

Pure was the second reason I bought a PSP
