I don’t know what a steelbook is, but it looks very pretty.
I think I’m going to buy the game, but not the PS4.
Yeah I like to do things differently.
VERY nice looking steelbook.
Makes me even more disappointed that the USA is getting screwed out of the WipEout love YET AGAIN.
And they wonder why it won't sell well here!
It's bad enough that I'll have to get physical and digital to get all the bonus stuff. I just hope that the money convinces Sony to make a proper new entry into the series.
Pre ordered my copy in GAME today. Still not sure whats happening with the steelbook over here, but I plan to have it!!!
OBH - it's the ACE here, give your bro my regards :)
Was it 2009 or 2010 when he showed me the double BR on Sol2 which you taught him - he showed me and I got the record in rapier online in that lol
Frankenstein moments hahaha
Bless
Peace
This is the ONLY confirmation about the steelbook that I have seen so far. Australia is PAL-land which makes me think that Europe will get it but GameStop couldn't confirm anything either. This is strange. I will wait one more week but after that I'm gonna take the chance and pre-order without knowing what to get.
Look, if a problem for others to get this AUS Steel Box version [It will be UK/EURO compatible - as Aus uses the same UK based PStore ] , I'll order and pay for as many as I can afford, then sell them off to forum members without profit, just postage cost to whoever wants them.
It's AUS $54.95 here ATM....I'll drop in to my local EB games and order 15 copies, that's all I'm prepared to slash out for....first in first served if you want one....that's if I can get 15 copies....will find out tomorrow ..stay tuned.
Don't think we are getting offline racebox where we can pick single race or time trial and then race for practice. Hopefully I am wrong
I think I read somewhere that we will get the singleplayer campaign from 2048. Multiplayer will be new design. Hopefully they will add racebox also for 2048 tracks.
@blackwiggle Thanks! :p
I wonder if that Steelbook will look the same in all regions. Gods help my wallet if they all look different, and awesome.
Thanks, @Blackwiggle !
They have confirmed 2048 racebox multiple times
"Each game has its own career mode, plus there’s a racebox mode which lets you tweak and customise your own races."
From blog
Important questions:
1) Is the custom soundtrack feature from HD still in?
2) Is the Racebox also available for 2048?
1: Unfortunately not, but you can play your own music via Spotify or your HD. We think you will love our new soundtrack though, it’s proper awesome!
2: Yes yes and ….yes!

Online racebox is also confirmed
https://twitter.com/SonyXDevEurope/s...26879460458497
You can also play split screen on 2048 tracks.
Racebox for single player was what I said. I know it's in multiplayer, which is awesome. But will we be able to pick tracks, select speed class, then play TT or single race in single player mode. TT Is the way a lot of people practice
I've found another retailer -JB HiFi [who has a shop directly beneath where I work] also has the Steel Box pre-order edition of the Omega Pack, so I'll have a chat with them on Monday
https://www.jbhifi.com.au/games-cons...ection/331986/
I mainly use Zone as my practice. It was one of the modes that made me play HD/Fury without Pilot Assist.
Mine is ordered for steel box edition! cannie wait!
stevie :)
Further confirmation of the Racebox features...Attachment 10651
Also, there is a LOT of love for the steelbook on NeoGaf too, they need to make this thing available!!!

This months PlayStation mag has some dual shock light bar decals with it, a few Omega Collection ones, the games logo and some of the teams, the white part is clear so your controller lights up the logo's...

Baaahhh, no Qirex decal! I'm disappointed! ;)
Haha! I thought it was weird they skipped over one of the original 4!
Warning: Attachments are broken
Gutted at the lack of custom MP3 support. Zone mode just won't be the same without it :P
I expect they will make all the rest available at the PStore.
As for the Steel box version, I've found one place is making them available to be picked up in store [preferred] and the other is only posting then out [I've had games stolen from my letterbox before, so that's not happening ]
So I'll go and order the copies for the people that asked me to today, from the store where I can pick them up.
I was going to order a heap of them, but feel I might get left with multiple copies if I do.
EDIT: OK, I have bought 3 copies of the Steel Box edition, one for Jabberjaw, one for Hybride Divide, and one for myself.
I asked if I had a requests from anybody else that wanted a copy, could I just come in and added it to this pre-order [as I've already payed in full for these ones], I was surprised when the guy behind the counter said 'Look, I let you order these three, but I can't order any more for you, as it's only supposed to be one per customer', he said I might be able to order via another store, but since it would still come up as the same name, it would probably ring alarm bells, and the orders might get cancelled, which is not something I would want to happen.
You can use media player app on ps4 to use mp3 soundtracks so its better than nothing
I did a video of the ps4 dynamic theme with the PS3 version of HD main menu music using media player

XDEV confirm no cross play available with 2048 on Vita. No surprises there as mixing the campaign with a racebox would cause all manner of problems. No word yet on PS3 crossplay
Yeah I did that first time I went in, I even know the guy I ordered from. Went back a second time to check again, the chap pulled up the games they had for pre order on his pad there was only one SKU for Wipeout Omega so either all of GAME's copies are the steel tin version or none are and they have misinformed you, or your a lucky bastard and your store had it and for some reason mine doesn't lol I would find that a bit strange though.
lol, only way to find out when it's released. ;)
stevie :)
I wonder if the things that stopped working in HD after the first week of release will get fixed for the remaster, I'm talking about online in game chat and player identities shown around craft when racing.
In game chat could be a double edged sword if it were fixed, but the return of player identities would be cool.
I'm excited, I came back to this forum because of this!
Me,too~!
@fshylhx same here. It just occurred to me how cringey my username is, and how many dumb things I said on this forum in the past. ANyway, it's good to see sony still has interest in wipeout. Hopefully they'll use it as a pilot to see if they want to make an all new game. Hopefully 2048 will have racebox now.
Same here.
used to play a lot in 2015 then i took a long break... when omega collection was announced i came back :D
edit: will omega have a new forum? or will we just continue posting on hd/fury and 2048 forums?
Yeah, I'll be setting up a new forum as more details of the game emerge and as we get closer to the release. For now it makes sense to keep discussion in one topic as there isn't much out there at the moment.
I've updated the first post in the topic with a list of details currently known
Does anyone know if the wipeout omega theme is available right after preorder in European PS Store? Cause I can't find this theme anywhere on my Playstation. Thx.
