If Pulse PS2 actually gets a Sep. 3rd release I am going to have a head explosion out of pure excitement.
i think this must've been some crazy rumour that got out of hand, as we haven't heard anything. if not...then let us know studio liverpool....please, go on.
Who cares about Pulse PS2...... *cough HD cough*
If it's still happening it's going to be way low on the pecking order at SL, obviously.
I care because it's highly unlikely that I will buy a PS3 soon, if ever.
Maybe, but since Studio Liverpool lost the F1 license to Codemasters there's now over 100 employees now working entirely on the WipEout series. It'll be low on the priorities list compared to HD and "Wipeout PS3" as you said, but it should be happening! Plus, the PS2 is going on surprisingly well even as the PS3 will be two years old this autumn. There's still a market.
of course, the wishful thinking of this would be seeing Nick B. back as lead designer
I'm not going to assume that Nick even wants to come back to the old concept. Or that Colin is bored with it. But it would be interesting to see what Nick might do this many years on in WO and general game development.
^ Agreed. It'd be a "Fusion" of old and new schools...maybe they should call the next game Wipeout Fu......wait.
Now, speaking of the PS2 version of Wipeout Pulse...;)
I was under the impression you didn't have a PS2 Lance? Although with the price of it ever falling I guess you put on on the list?
Of course I will buy it if it snakes it way out, might only play it for 5 minutes but you know how it is, just have to have it.
Is it gonna include the DLC? That would certainly make it a more attractive buy for you Americans who were unfairly deprived of the extra stuff I guess.
Twisted Metal Head-On came with lots of extras when it was ported from the PSP.
Wipeout HD will certainly have the extra teams unless those "four extra ships" are actually G-Tech, MediEvil, Cokestyle and Puma II.
It would seem that it would be the logical thing to do.
as much as i love my PS3...i still play the PS2 as much for MGS2, MGS3, Tomb Raider Anniversary, Fusion and FF XII...
it's great to see Sony cater Pulse for the PS2 crowd and its great to see the sleek black box still going strong...and I will definitely be getting Pulse on the PS2 even though I will have HD as soon as its released...
I've not played my PS2 in ages, it makes sense for Sony to port it to PS2 (I mean it would have made sense to make it on PS2 in the first place) they can make some profit for little effort.
Ever since Pulse was announced it bugged me as to why they were putting it on PSP? Is there no more online for PS2? Did they just think about making more money off downloads? Whats the reason?

confirmed release date? maybe.
hope so. :)
Please tell me it's not PAL exclusive.
i would hope not, just for you guys. no fusion, no pulse dlc...i'd hope they would release it in all territories with all dlc included. with the number of ps2's out there i'm sure sales would be good enough to justify it!
We got Fusion! Albeit it wasn't published by SCEA. We didn't get Wipeout 3 SE, extra music in WipEout, Omega League, and the Pulse DLC as you mentioned.
oh, i wasn't aware fusion finally got a release there! shame about 3: special edition, that was a great package, perhaps it'll get a release on the psn at some point or be unlockable in a future installment of the series as a bonus!
if this release date for pulse ps2 in new zealand is true then i'd guess PAL uk and NTSC would be somewhere around that time too.
also if this is true, it's a whole new level of non-marketing...
We've had Fusion for six years. I should know, I was the only person who camped out 30 minutes early at the mall GameStop to buy it. ;)
