Houston, TX | I'm very excited. I hope they decide to add some more content like classic tracks from the PS versions. Also I hear this is just something to tide us over until the true PS3 Wipeout game is released. Anybody hear more on that? |

Brooklyn, NY | No I think it is the true PS3 wipeout, and at 60fps and 1080p what else could it be, but they promise ongoing DLC |

I used to play Wipeout64 all the time. For a second time, I am envious of you PS3 owners.  |

I LOVED flying around the course in the original, and this was the first game that I bought for my PSP....this is always a must have for me. |

| There will be online play for up to eight players is what I am hearing. Early review from the U.K. are saying this game looks phenomenal and puts other high def games to shames (i.e. Wipeout HD may be the benchmark for true 1080p games). The only downside they are saying is you are getting essentially the same game as Wipeout Pure. Small price to pay if you ask me (especially since I don't have a PSP). |

Yes, this had an awesome soundtrack that really suited the feel of the game.

| Thanks....yeah, I remember being so shocked when the "new" release of Firestarter came out in the states,. I already knew every note by frickin note...lol
While I doubt the new one will be quite as cutting edge, they've always seemed to have decent music...Hope the new one continues this.
::EDIT:: Dang...they had Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Orbital, Daft Punk and Underworld...all who eventually came into their own in the techno scene. nice picks! |

| The album has a few different tracks that were on the game, and it is missing some that were on the game.

Well, I don't know about the states but these bands were huge in europe when they appeared on the first wipeout - so it may have been clairvoyant for the US, but was a fairly mainstream set of tracks in the UK. |

| Just to clarify WipeoutXL (or 2097 for the limies) was the second game of the series. The original Wipeout had all of its tracks made by CoLD SToRAGE (the guy who did Canada and Body in Motion on XL). Also many of those bands, while not as big as they were in the UK, were already on the forefront of the electronic dance music scene in the US.
I recommend the WipeoutXL CD for anybody who wants to hear a great representation of the best of 90's EDM. Lots of rare tracks and a few exclusive to the CD (Fluke has a really sweet remix of Atom Bomb found nowhere else but this CD). |

It should be the same for the US, and I see the store updates sometime after 4 PM on the east coast and no later than 6 PM. |

It's available at the US store now. I might be making an early move for the exit just as soon as put the new coversheet on my TPS report. |
