Pulse on PS2 now official!

[Rubix42]

And that's why I think it is a believable idea.

Personally, I hope we get a brand new Wipeout, with brand new tracks. I'll take anything we get with a smile, but that is my hope.

wipeout
wipeout 2097
wipeout 3: special edition
wipeout fusion
wipeout pure/with dlc
wipeout pulse/with dlc

all on the psn downloadable and playable on your ps3.

that would be awesome (and make me buy a ps3)

[Darkdrium777]

Yeah, a whole 'Friggin Sweet' collection would be nice. But Pulse on PS2 or PS3 alone won't sell much. At least I think it won't, prove me wrong Sony with advertising.

Anyways, I think the original stuff we were talking about in this thread has been canned, no? I don't see it happening anytime soon anyways, just like that other thread over there... :/

[darkfaerytales]

any good news about yet?

nice. So I must give up on idea of playing killzone2. Hope the skin editor is here too!

[kaori]

No editor & no online I think, but a two-players mode, and why not a NegCon compatibility! Will you beat new records???

[Hail Seizure]

I hope 480p is there.

i hope this is true, but will only believe it when i see it sat on a shelf in a store. there's been so many rumours and no official word, so we'll see.

I feel the same about this. I got excited when i first heard these rumours, but i'm not going to trust these rumours until i can get some reliable info.

[DawnFireDragoon]

exactly. i really want to play some more wipeout on the big screen, (not counting hd before everyone hurles that one at me! my friend has a ps3 and i've played through hd, but it didn't grab me like the other games (hopefully some new tracks could spice it up, a little more variaiton to the cityscapes and the 'future has no dirt/dust look' of some tracks!) i doubt i will ever buy a ps3, so fingers crossed for this.

it's on the game uk site, which, as much as i hate game, is pretty much comfirmation.

any one at studio liverpool care to comment, fill us in on features???

[eLhabib]

Basically, the fact that they haven't yet called BS on this counts as a confirmation, I guess...

[swift killer]

I would get my hopes up, those two websites are not exactly trust worthy, you can tell by looking, and playfrance is pretty much known for basically talking crap.

still want to know if the rumoured split screen is real, if dlc is really not included and if graphics have been tinckered with, any new options...e.t.c....

[JABBERJAW]

Well, that would be awesome, but call it something else though, not pulse, for sales sake if nothing else. Also, it wouldn't need dlc if all the tracks are included and ships already. If they just could add all of pure's tracks as well, that would be sweet, of course with HD's handling would also be nice. OH, then there is link mode for faster gameplay as well, but if split screen is all, then at least allow one on one races to keep the framerate up. NEgcon (drools, then wakes up).

this is sounding more real as we go along here, which would be great

[Hail Seizure]

480p video output is essential as far as I'm concerned. I'm sick of half arsed, letterboxed, unoptimised PAL conversions on the PS2. Also, I don't have a widescreen TV, so the ability to choose between normal and widescreen aspect ratio would be nice. Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast got both of these right.

Support for the original SCPH-1080 PS1 digital controller would also be very useful, since it seems to be the only controller I can play Wipeout with (and before anyone asks, I've tried the NegCon with all the Wipeouts up to and including Fusion on numerous occasions and I hate it with every fibre of my being. Sorry. ) The Dualshock 1's D pad doesn't have enough travel for my liking, and the DS2 has too much and is horribly spongy (not to mention the fact that the housings of those stupid surperfluous analogue sticks prevent me from getting a comfortable grip on the controller). The 1080 is just right.

[darkfaerytales]

so it's real this rumor that dlc will not included? so basically, the 4 ships and 4 tracks will not be present in the game

sorry me but this is crap...****

so even in this case our american friends will not have the chances to play with the tracks not included
good sony! good! we see how you care about customers who made you rich

to me don't change nothing i have psp with pulse and the packs already cause i live in italy, and basically i don't give a **** about, i will not get the ps2 version anyway, since in the last times i use most harimau, mirage and auricom...but for our american friends it's another low blow

[DawnFireDragoon]

the simple answer here is, no one knows what's what with the rumours.

like you, myself and everyone else glancing at this thread, want to know what's what.

going on wipeout's recent track record, we'll be lukcy to get any info until it either slips onto shelves or dissapears like so many other rumours...

pulse dlc.
2097 on psn.
wip3out on psn.

wipeout hd release date is forgiven due to the circumstances, but you all remember how hard it was to get info on that one too!!!

if it is coming and gets world wide release, dlc absolutely should be included. if not, then i would be baffled by that decision, it wouldn't make up for what happened to our friends in the states, but it would be the right thing to do, none the less. and give everyone access to some great ships and of course vostok reef!!!

there are hints it's coming from various sites we've spotted, but no official word...probably most importantly on features and release territories.

[JABBERJAW]

Now that they got the handling just right in HD, this COULD be the definitive version of the newer games if everything is included.
