Wipeout Pure: Stealth Edition

[Space Cowboy]

Does anyone know the details concerning the stealth track and ship?
Is it possible to get this content without buying that awful film?

[Drakkenmensch]

There's always renting (if your local blockbuster rents UMDs) or borrowing from a friend, assuming one of your friends is a maniac who must have everything wipeout related no matter that it comes packaged with the black plague itself.

Any other options would be illegal and should not be discussed here.

You dont have to tell me, Im fully aware of all that jazz.

[Drakkenmensch]

Oh, I'm aware that you are, but I just wanted to make it clear for the benefit of some newer members on the forum who have been making requests of... shall we say, dubious legality.

[Space Cowboy]

Ok, sorry dude, one of those days

[Drakkenmensch]

No worries, it's all cool

Is it an original track though, or just a rebranded version of a track that already exists in the game? This isn`t completely clear. Either way I can live without it: either because I don`t see the point of paying $40 for something I`ve already got, or because I won`t be blackmailed into buying something I don`t really want, as a way of paying over the odds to get access to something I would want. I`m guessing it`ll just be a track-rebranding thing. In which case, who cares anyway?

[kaiotheforsaken]

i think i'll buy it. the movie wasn't the worst ever, and i love extra content so i'll probably scoop it up.

[mischiefdemon]

Will this extra content add to the existing game or will it be a stand alone thing?

If you can add it to what I've got, then I might get it... If it comes on a seperate UMD I don't know if I like the sound of that?!?!

[Rouni Kenshin#1]

I've never heard of this stealth edition.


and my blockbuster dosen't rent UMDs, but thats the manager.

some elaboration on the stealth edition would be nice


(huming and all that Jazz)

[APVangeliLMS]

theres a copy of that at my local gamestop, used, and its $7.89

I bought the stealth UMD and was really dissapointed. The movie is crap imo and the WipEout content cannot be used as an add-on to the full game. The content on the stealth UMD is a stand alone demo version of the game. Except for the stealth ship there's nothing really new on the disc and the speed classes only go up to flash class. The unlockable pics differ from the ones on the Pure UMD, but they're just some cheap screenshots, nothing special...

As sad as this may sound, I can only advise you to spend your money on the stealth UMD if you really do like the movie or if you're some kind of WipEout collector/completist. If you're none of these two, then save your money for Pulse I say.

[Spaceboy Gajo]

Thanks for the review Tomahawk.

Now if the price was right, I'd pick it up. I've seen the movie and thought it was entertaining. However, that was to settle my curiousity in the first viewing and nothing more. Not enough action shots of Jessica Biel for owning the UMD. Now if there were scenes like the stuff she does for I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry then I may consider dropping a few dollars for the UMD. However it has to have the demo also on there. Then I could say it's a win win situation

[Airrider]

The Stealth racer, I hear, is absolutely awful compared to other ships. I wrote that Wiki article in the very beginning, and am proud of what it has evolved into. Thanks, everybody.

[Seek100]

This has been posted so many times already, it's not an addition to the game, it's a standalone demo, it will most likely be a rebranded track & ship like the Coca-Cola and Wire05 stuff, probably even another Koltiwa and recoloured Nx1000. Yet another example of the insurmountable ghey of the Sony suits milking wipEout now that it's back in vogue.

[Egg]

It's not a re-branded ship, I can tell you that much.

[element42]

I don't really care about the ship too much, we have lots of choice already , and if it's anything like Medievel, it really wouldn't be worth it.
But an exclusive track? That would be likely to necessitate purchase, and much gnashing of teeth in the direction of SCEA. :x

[InvaderF00]

This is essentially a demo with some rebranded stuff.
Wonder if it could be ripped and used wth any of the other Pure versions out there. We could all use a 4-5th Koltiwa track.

Tell you ne thing though, that stealth ship got a big ass.

[Nio]

Will there be a download at yourpsp?

[Egg]

No plans for a separate download, as far as I know.
