Where's WipEout HD

[beanbandit]

So E3 is happening, and not a single mention (that i can find) of any news on WipEout HD. The last time any news or footage was released was May 16th.

wipEout HD -- PSN (Available Summer 2008 / Rated E10+)

One of the most beloved PlayStation franchises of all time returns with wipeout HD for PS3. Available exclusively for download on PlayStation Store, players race at blazing speeds and experience adrenaline-filled, anti-gravity racing action in full-1080p High Definition (HD) running at a breathtaking 60-frames-per-second. Featuring a selection of the best tracks from previous versions of the wipEout franchise meticulously reworked for PS3, wipEout HD supports up to eight player online multiplayer racing in addition to various other race modes like Tournament, Time Trial and Speed Lap. Featuring a new Pilot Assist option to help players navigate tracks at blazing speeds, wipEout HD also includes a Photo Mode, support for the SIXAXIS wireless controller's motion sensing controls, and a bumping soundtrack with Dolby 5.1 surround.

So its summer, and still no word. Is this going to be another HOME, delayed. Another GT Mobile, when we've finished the current project were working on.

Come on Sony, pull your finger out and get us some information.

There are some 'specific technical issues' associated with wipeout HD (http://blog.wired.com/games/2008/07/...cal-issue.html)

Thanks for the link, something is better than nothing i suppose, but i wish this was out already.

Oops, seems the delay has been caused by the failure to pass epilepsy tests.

CVG has been told that WipEout "fails the epilepsy tests so much that it has to be re-engineered."

Wonder how long that will take to fix?

Nearest thing to wipeout at the moment is Fatal Inertia EX, Thats a nice challenge, not sure it justifies the £20 price tag though.
