Ahahahahah that's so typical.
Not the fact that it comes later than expected, no, it's the fact that nobody tells you.
You guys can't imagine how much Sony's advertising and releasedate strategies get on my nerves, no, you really can't.

this means I'm going to buy another game first, Burnout is getting a bit boring.
Nnnnnoooooooooo !!!!!!:brickwall
Bummer! Summer is typically considered to start on June 21st.
Ugh. Well, I guess it's for the best, I mean, MGS4 comes out in about 2 weeks. But still, I want Wipeout and I want it now!
hmm. it's still May from the official sony uk site but who knows. Release dates, and the way they are always moving are just there to really frustrate the fans imo :p
You guys have no idea how pissed of I am about this
I bought my ps3 back in december because at the time 31/12/07 was the published release date for WipEout HD on the AU playstation web site
It never came so i contacted sony and asked them where it way becasue they did not update the site.
date got changed to april - june
then in april the dat got change to 29/4/08 again it never came
I contacted sony and asked they why and also asked the for compensation because i've now been with out the game I bought my $700 ps3 for 5 month now.
I think we should start a class action against sony and it's misleading infomation.
Yeah but it's not like the ps3 has come down in price since December for us.

I'm trying to plan my holidays from work around this release. My boss is getting a little frustrated with me saying "I need some time off soon, but I'm not sure exactly when".

Welcome to the WipeoutZone, "Sugar". :)
Please read the guidelines before posting further.

yep. I might have even worse news: just talked to a source within Sony today, and he told me wipEout HD might not be out before September!!! He said he's not sure he's on the latest info, but the official date they are supposed to say if someone asks is September.
Please, someone from SL, get on here and ease our minds (and hearts) by denying this in favor of a more soon-ish date!
uff.Trying to pretend i didnt read that eLhabib.
...
...
nope, not working. Bugger.
Well as long as it's getting released 'when it's ready', rather than 'when some bloke working in publishing thinks its a good time' i dont think we can complain. Still if it is September then maybe a little closed beta to make sure the multiplayer is superawesome is in order? :cowboy
Not only may Sony want to perfect the online gameplay, they may want to release Wipeout HD in the fall launch window, which always gets way more sales than summer releases.
Not sure if this holds for PSN downloadable games so well as optical media releases-- but in general it's absurd how much of a lift September/November/December releases get, and also the fraction of sales that occur during the first month of a release.
September holy crap can I kill myself and re spawn then.
i'm already sick of waiting
well 1up says this

WTF really? Maaan, sorry to break it to ya, but I'm not a big fan of Pulse... I only played some of it for like the first week... Pure was a hell lot better... that freaking sucks if that's true!! It's going to be so sick when it comes out though...
hello people,
on its european official playstation site, the date always May a 2008 for wipeout hd...a French site is also the first to have obtained the exact official date of release of the title : May 29, 2008, therefore let published this date on the official sites is deliberately to mislead the consumer...
:evil
I don't know wipeout fusion on ps2, so while waiting, playing wipeout fusion on its ps3 does helping little for have patience and it's worth the sorrow?
thanks (and sorry for my english)
Is there not laws about false advertising and publishing missleding infomation can we sue sony ???
Heh, seriously? Well, you could have had it in December, if you wanted to play something unfinished.
No-one's been misled. December was a serious date, but if problems come up, Sony can't just add a week on and release it then. There are release 'windows' to avoid other big launches and so on. I pity any publisher who tried to get a game noticed two or three weeks ago, for example.
Mario kart did just fine against gta4 and being me I would have bought all three if WO had have come out.
WO is as just as big a title as they are IMHO.
The main problem is sony arn't marketing WO in the same way and that will have a negative effect on sales.
What are liverpool studios and sony so scared of ??
Spend some money on faster development and some TV add's, sell and pitch WO to the world!!! It's an awsom franchise. Why keep it a hidden secret.
OH and PS bring back the neGcon
...sue them for what? False advertising is when they sell you a product and it doesn't match the description. Release dates for games change all the time, I fail to see what the problem is, it's not broken promises, any kind of serious gamer should realise that release dates always change, and if you're not a serious gamer, why are you here whining about release dates? This is exactly what's wrong with society today, people thinking they can fix everything with lawsuits. It's a video game, I'm sure you'll live if you have to wait a few extra months.Quote:

As for a lawsuit I dont think so it just my way of showing anger.
not a serious gamer?? well i've been play video games since I got my commodore 64 back in 1984 so......
By advertising a range of upcoming games! The rascals.Quote:
