    Because of in-game advertising, most likely to support the cost of the DLC (How come it's so cheap right?) and maintaining the server, so that you, the fan, the player, can keep playing WipEout, you won't be playing it anymore. Well okay, fine.

    How I see it, this is more money to make more WipEout. Twas fine back in the day with the loading only reading "Red Bull", what's different now... The sound? The sponsor? It's still a loading screen... You're gonna play WipEout HD after...

    As far as "The video-game industry doesn't put ads in game"... Trackmania? Quake Live? Grand Theft Auto? Burnout? etc.
    Hmm, me saying I won't be buying anymore DLC from them is NOT the same thing as saying I will never play WO again. Me saying the ads "make me not want to play" is NOT me saying I will never play again. Perhaps you should try reading what I write instead of trying to prove an opinionated point. Nice try, but no dice.

    And all of those games you mentioned, I don't play those...I specifically don't play GTA because of the ads. I would NOT have purchased WOHD if they would have told us there would be ads.

    That is all.

    Edit:

    I don't understand why people are ignoring the ad issue because the game is so cheap right off the bat...75% of the game is a REMAKE of tracks/courses that were already available. They didn't make the game from scratch, hence the lower price IMHO. I personally don't approach the game as if it is a "new" WO, hence the price seemed about right to me.

    Oh, and I would have gladly paid more (or at least been given the option to pay more) if I could have the game with NO ads.
