By now you’ve probably come across some great previews for wipEout HD, the upcoming anti-gravity racing title on PSN. Between the 1080p racing at 60 frames per second, the awesome trophy support, motion steering via SIXAXIS, online racing and A LOT more, the excitement level is understandably high. Well, we have some more wipEout HD goodness to share today in the form of an OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE.
Drumroll, please!
Your wipEout HD thirst will be quenched on September 25. Yes, that’s right, just 10 days from today. For just $19.99, wipEout HD will be available for download only and includes the following awesomeness:
* Full HD Visuals
* 5 Game Modes - Single Race, Tournament, Time Trial, Speed Lap and Zone Mode
* Online play that supports up to 8 racers competing on a track at a time
* 2-player split screen (horizontally and vertically) offline
* 8 reversible tracks and 12 teams
* Optional use of SIXAXIS motion controls to steer your ship

Rep Power: 4 | Comes out on my birthday... To bad I don't have money any more because I have a girlfriend...
The last thing I bought off the Psn was Pixel junk Eden. I used to buy something once a week...
She dumped me today... Then took me back.. Hum.. I miss my video games a lot..
I have a lot on my mind.. I find out if my mom has breast cancer on my birthday.. I might take a break again before I end up banned again.. ______________________ He thinks he drinks to much because when he tells his two best friends I think I drink too much, no one speaks. No one speaks. Quote: |

Sorry for linking to another forum...but just look at the pictures throughout this thread, then try to tell me this game doesn't look awesome. :) http://forums.gametrailers.com/showt...=560835&page=1
It is a must buy...I am having a blast with it. 1080p at 60fps at it's finest.

It is just awesome. | I actually prefer Extreme G over Wipeout, but Wipeout is pretty friggin' awesome. I downloaded it last night, and it's very similar to Extreme G. With Wipeout HD being next-gen, however, it has plenty more features (better than XGRA) that will keep me satisfied. ______________________ |

Rep Power: 2 | I was playing Wipeout on the PS3 the other day. I warn you now, playing zone while in a "different" state of mind  is stupidly intense. haha I nearly threw up. Great game though, especially for a tenner. ______________________ |XBL BL4RG14N T04ST| |

Rep Power: 2 | I guess as a gift to people in Australia, they are giving this game away for free just for signing up for PSN. All you have to do is make an account from Australia and they will email you a code to download this game for free. I am going to try this tonight when I get home.
***Edit***
I read the article wrong it's Austria not Australia. Either way if someone tries this let me know if it works.

Because I don't.
Can you enlighten me?
Thanks. |

| Well I never noticed.
Maybe I should pay more attention. ______________________
