    Default Coming to Playstation Store: WipEout for the PSP

    just got this off, Gamasutra http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/new...hp?story=12422


    "While rumors still remain unanswered as to whether the PS3 will see a next-gen Wipeout addition to the series, at least its ancient ancestor will be making a comeback - for the PSP's PSOne emulator. Gamasutra reports that the Wipeout downloadable PSP-playable will slide into the PlayStation Store, along with the equally futuristic, equally racer, equally PSOne Jet Moto. Coming out when? No word on a date, TBA, we guess. Price stands at US$ 5.99 each."


    can't wait !

    Thanks Kandang - lovely info, and thanks to Sony for a nice price too. I`vE rEally enjoyEd original WipEout latEly, though I`m still only a Venom pilot and have only worked my way to Terramax, but having it on my PSP would be marvellous.

    Now us non-PS3 owners just have to wait for this stuff to become available via PSP/PC download. Would be interested to hear some first impressions if any of our PS3 owners get this.

    equally racer? I don't think so. Equals crap is more like it, although it might run better on the psp. How about link mode? doable or not?

    As far as I have understood, one can only buy and download it via the PS3. It seems that this might change, though: Sony opens web browser for PlayStation Store [qj.net]

    I can't see it either.

    It must only be on the US and Japanese versions of the store for now. Us Europeans have to wait... again!

    The following PS One games are now confirmed for 22/06 on the Store (for PS3 and PSP):

    - Crash Bandicoot
    - Wipeout
    - Medievil
    - Jumping Flash
    - Syphon Filter

    Piranha5p33d5: Seriously? LAME.

    Besides, I already have the original...although taking it as legally as you can on the go doesn't sound too bad.

    I want this to play on the move so bad! So am I going to have to get this from one of my mates who have a PS3 then?

    Depending on how long you are willing to wait.. yes or no.

    Hackers have located a piece of code in the latest PSP Firmware (3.51) that indicates the ability to download and run games from a MemoryStick. It looks like Sony may be gearing up to finally give PSP owners a direct download "Store". The question is... when?

    Did anyone here get WO1 from the US or JP PS3 stores at all? I'm just curious if the licensed music is intact. I imagine it probably is as the games seem to be running exactly as the original PS1 games did but, if not, it would have knock-on implications for 2097 and W3O.
