    It's sarcasm, more or less, about how most people supposedly know all the new features of WOHD.

    "Two new heads-up displays? Oh, they're from Wipeout 2097 and Wip3out. Yeah, I don't have a source for this information, I just know already."

    Kind of like how "Wipeout PS3", the one after HD, supposedly runs on some form of the MotorStorm engine because some blogger said so.

    Then again, I could be reading into this too deeply...o_o

    Either torlporl is informed or he's just being very very teasing.
    But I like it anyways

    Though the four new ships, I mean, that's probably the worst kept secret of the game's new features.

    Unless it's a four-pack including G-Tech, MediEvil, Stealth and Cokestyle.

    I agree with Darkdrium-- Torlporl is either brilliantly witty or knows something, I'm not sure which is the case.

    well, icaras is misspelled so I am cautious against letting my hopes rise too much.

    Hi guys,


    (I like u Torlporl) I don't know if it has already been said before, but Hd will contain 8 reverse tracks, 4 more ships (for sure the pulse packs), new HUDS, offline 2 players splitted screen + trophy support (SCEE official response, the source said )

    ^ The Gran Turismo approach? Nah, at some point they have to cut it off and finish the game. Though, it would save the trouble of being nickeled and dimed to death to get the "full" game.

    god, I really hate all this speculation, but then every other day a bit of supposed info gets out and fuels my personal hype for this game, aaargh!

    well, doing a quick google search on 'torlporl' has revealed that he seems to be located at Liverpool (the town, not the studio, mind you) - so maybe he really DOES know.

    ssshhh, Colin, give us some comment on this already! We're foaming at the mouth!

    Default not torlporlatorl

    The guy posting as torlporl is masquerading as someone from Studio Liverpool, but is not said person and the information posted by them can pretty much be taken as garbage.

    it didnt seem like he was claiming to be someone from studio liverpool as he was writing from the perspective of someone who only plays the game... however maybe he is a tester or maybe he is totally full of ****! personally i dont care at all because i dont believe anything that doesnt have a credible source

    Whatever the truth, I hope, pray, and dream of Icaras in the starting lineup.

    Since they won't confirm nor deny the epilepsy thing or any other technical problem for that matter, I came up with a theory of my own with regard as to what the technicality could be.

    *Game is 99% complete*

    *Game gets rated*

    *Game now passed to marketing where they slap the most ridiculous rip off price tag on it that they possibly could*

    *Some Sony guy comes along and almost falls out of his shirt, knowing we've ripped Wipeout fans off in the past but this is a stage too far, even for SCEE*

    *Marketing point blank refuse to lower the price, panic ensues and extra features are added.*
    Well, the game will certainly bee sold at a higher price than it should have been originally (but we will never know ^_^). But since there is additionnal content which could have been added through DLC (not free obviously) I don't think your thoughs are justified.
    Just my opinion though ...

    Im sure the game will have unlockable ships like in Pulse... if you go to the website, the qirex ship that they show in the wallpaper artwork looks like the standard design, and the qirex ship that appears in most of the game's screenshots and videos look much different like the concept ship, so there might be some truth to what he says. then again, its obvious that weather what he said was true or not, he said it to tease us, because he hasnt been back to comment on it again

    Never give up hope. Seriously, Icaras billboards were quite prominent in all the preview videos and trailers I've seen - especially at Chenghou Project.

    Like I said, the four new ships deal is the worst kept secret there is right now with this game.

    ^ Reminds me of the Fusion official boards. XD

    Whatever happened to the days where people would pretend to be Gary Coleman or Rick Astley on message boards as a joke?
