Pulse interviews.

[xdirex]

Pure was the second reason I bought a PSP

It was the first reason for me, although I've come to realise that my PSP is an extremely cool, useful little gadget since then...

heh - my first reason was because it is portable

the wipeout pulse au interview

We do not want to skew the main racing in Wipeout away from racing and towards weapons, the racing needs to be the core so by having Elimination Mode it enables us to concentrate and focus on weapons more without harming the 'racing' experience.

HELL YES!

The classic tracks went down well with Pure so there is always the chance through downloads we could bring a few more back, but in the main game it is all new content.

Oooh, I wasn't expecting that! All new tracks... woah. Nice!

We have been careful not to make every track all about mag strips, it is a cool new idea, but it does not flood the game, it just adds an extra element.

Good, good...

That's a nice article, well found!

[RJ O'Connell]

Ohhh...the wait is killing me...

Good stuff in that interview. Really hope to see more!

[Asayyeah]

Thanks a lot Colin for all those precisions : seems with the 3 levels of difficulty you will satisfy a large range of players from the newbee to the hardcore racers : well found

[supersocks]

about half of the tracks have magnetic sections, half do not

SL, you 50.01% rock! (and believe me that's much coming from the worst pessimist in history)

hope this interview on Spong hasn`t been posted before but anyway two things stand out: vector is definitely goneand the Amsterdam Grand Prix gets a mention! Nice!

[RJ O'Connell]

Also seen in the Spong feature were the logos for the league, Triakis, Qirex, Piranha, Mirage, Icaras and a b/w one for Harimau.

Need. Now. ^___________^

Tony Buckley: Oh yeah, and I’ll say now, that the Phantom class will always be for nutters! People whose talent with WipEout tracks and ships is almost frightening! You know, there was a WipEout conference a couple of months ago in Holland, and the speed these people go - and the control they have over their ship - is simply amazing. We will always have a speed class that is for those purists.

Absolutely brilliant stuff!, I`m glad he mentioned us.

[infoxicated]

Heh!

Tony was worried that some might be offended by the term "nutters", but he meant it in the most complimentary way.

[Task]

8 D I think we're all well aware of how crazy we are!
At least, when it comes to WO...

[Asayyeah]

The Amsterdam Klan strikes back

Nutters, speed freaks, aliens : no offense at all , we all come from outerspace mwhuahaha

[Rapier Racer]

lol

Hmmm that piccyture the very bottom left one on page 2, as soon as I saw that it scream Florion Height at me, just a glance at that first corner and of course that board over the track

[Mad-Ice]

To be a nutter or not to be a nutter, that's the question? But to become a nutter is the answer!!! A WipEout Nutter

Very cool interview. I am so looking forward to the skin designing program. I am getting my sketch book out now. I feel so happy about that Tony mentioned the Amsterdam Wipeout Convention!!! That for sure!

[benjahman]

[Asayyeah]

'We feel like we've got a winning formula and as long as we can invigorate it we can please the solid install base of WipEout fans. We've got to cater to them first. We want people to share their experiences, so we've given them the tools to do that'

Cheers Tony Buckley
