[Lime]

When can we expect the collection to be released?

 

[Omnii-chan]

OH FUCK, OH FUCK YES

These games at 4k 60fps will look incredible.

 

[whitehawk]

I reaaalllly hope this supports 3D (not VR, 3D).

 

[sankt-Antonio]

Can't really wrap my head around the fact that I played wipeout 20 years ago with "firestarter" in constant rotation. I remember it like it was yesterday.

 

[DBT85]

Native 4k????

Trailer itself says dynamic 4k, so same as HD did on PS3.

I honestly sat and gave this a good long think, and I have had some incredibly insane ideas in mind. Like, I feel like it's going to hurt NOT to do them. But I have no way to legally execute them for anyone but myself and If I wanted to take it upon myself to make a proposal, I don't really know who or how I could ask...it would take an act of Sony at this point (up to now, all the official themes we've done were due to companies seeking out us).

I'd drop everything to do it though.

Surely there are people in the position on this forum that are able contact certain people working on it to make that official request?

 

[Vally]

I'm really curious to see how the tracks from 2048 look in this collection. The scenery on some of the tracks is stunning

We Have Explosive too. Those two tracks are iconic

Thanks a lot!

I am fucking HYPED.

 

[KillGore]

oh my god

 

[Shin-Ra]

The quality of the trailer really doesn't do the upgraded visuals justice.

[Nasbin]

I can't believe this is real. What a sick PSX.

 

[pswii60]

It looks wonderful. Looking forward to this.

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

Considering ps3 version was 1080p 60 fps

Wwhat to expect from ps4 and ps4 pro versions?

That's what I was thinking, I don't have a PS4 Pro or a 4k TV

 

[Sidewinder]

It looks wonderful. Looking forward to this.

It really does, was already a real gem on PS3, this will be the ultimate WipEout Edition. Hope it sells well, maybe they'll make a new one some day on PS5

 

[Mr. Pointy]

It ain't new Wipeout but I'll take it.

 

[Dio]

Considering ps3 version was 1080p 60 fps

Wwhat to expect from ps4 and ps4 pro versions?

It was dynamic 1080p, not full all the time.

It changed resolutions based on what was going on onscreen to keep the framerate at 60.

I can at least expect this to stay a solid 1080p at all times and a solid 60fps at all times, and have a "4k mode" that uses the same tech but for 4k, not 1080p.

 

[shink]

Oh my god so IN.

 

[eyeball_kid]

Now all we need is Namco to bring back a limited edition PS4 version of the NeGcon...

 

[Izuna]

Okay, NOW I want a PS4

edit: oh... ;( HD, Fury and 2048

aka...

Okay, Poop, and Super Short and Easy

I thought this was like a super duper collection or something

 

[Rephil]

Best Wipeouts, all together, in 4K.

I can't ask for anything else. There's like 200 hours of gameplay here.

i'm so happy!

 

[Mr. Pointy]

My PSN avatar has been the Assegai logo from Wipeout Pure for the last 5 or 6 years. l thought it was the Qirex logo.

 

[yurinka]

more than 26 unique tracks and 46 unique ship models

PS blog mention this, but as I remember HD, Fury and 2048 have 18 tracks combined.

This means WipEout Omega would feature at least 8 new tracks, or at least Pure/Pulse tracks not included in HD/Fury. Not sure about the ships, but maybe it's the same case.

 

[eyeball_kid]

The feels. Summer can't come soon enough.

I really hope this collection is partly about testing the waters. I'd love to see a new Wipeout built from the ground up for the PS4.

 

[ghibli99]

4K Wipeout... don't wake me from this dream.

 

[Corto]

I'll buy 2 million copies so Sony resurrects Studio Liverpool and we get a proper new Wipeout.

 

[Curufinwe]

This might push me to get a 4k TV, Wipeout is just that good.

I got an HDTV for Wipeout HD.

I'll get a 4KTV for Omega. And a Pro.

Does 2048 onlyy have six tracks?

HD Fury has 12.

 

[TONX]

Time to bring back G.A.M.E ?

YES please. I want to contribute music.

 

[Oppo]

Now all we need is Namco to bring back a limited edition PS4 version of the NeGcon...

STOP IT

i can't

my nostalgia is flaring up

Spoiler

the throw on the 2 analog buttons was preposterous but i loved this thing

 

[DangerMouse]

Bam.

Glorious.

My Pro is ready.

 

[Poimandres]

Thank you thank you thank you!

Do we know who is developing this? Would be nice to have some older tracks in there as well, but it's understandable that they would need a lot more work bring up to modern fidelity.

Also, I barely played 2048 because of the 30 second load times so really looking forward to getting to know those tracks inside and out.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Any info if it's going to be retail?

 

[Oppo]

you know - not really, on the fidelity. i mean yeah some work but the way the art direction went, everything is angular and wantonly low poly sometimes, i don't think it would be so tough. relatively speaking.

personally I would want them to improve the ship explosions. Slowing down and then just pooping out of existence was kind of anti-climactic. Those things should explode into 1 million pieces

as for the developers, there are three logos at the front, I think two of them are internal Sony Studios, plus a third-party

 

[chaosblade]

If this has any new content it's an easy day one purchase. But even without that it may be worth it for 2048 in HD at 60 FPS.

 

[repeater]

2048 at 60 fps will be great.

 

[eyeball_kid]

STOP IT

I don't even know what Namco originally made it for, but my gods was it perfect for Wipeout.

I do wish they'd throw in some XL tracks to this collection. (I'm not familiar with all of these games so maybe there were some remakes)

 

[LoveCake]

Why have they not included 2097 (the best one imo) in this though?

 

[Dimitri0508]

Does 2048 onlyy have six tracks?

HD Fury has 12.

They propably included the special zone tracks from HD and Fury, so I don't think there are that many new tracks, if any.

 

[Naked Snake]

This might push me to get a 4k TV, Wipeout is just that good.

This and TLOU2 are the only games so far that will make me get a PS4 (Pro). Only wish it also supported 3D 1080p downsampled, or VR.

 

[Naked Snake]

Why have they not included 2097 (the best one imo) in this though?

Because that one has never been remastered, and bringing it to PS4 level would require a ton of work, like building a brand new game? It is my favorite one too (XL).

 

[Blablurn]

This is a pretty nice announcement! Glad they are doing this

 

[Gxgear]

It's gonna be my first collection title on PS4, and just my 4th remaster title after GTA V, TLoU, and Gravity Rush.

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

Was there any decent tracks in the PS2 game?

I loved Fusion despite it having a bad reputation. Wish they'd release a map pack from that entry.

 

[RootCause]

Will this be digital only?

 

[freefornow]

Extremely happy for this.
Would have loved a complete collection. Imagine Wipeout 2097 fully remade/remastered (akin to Crash N Sane).

 

[Raylan]

Again: I'm so happy right now. Finally, WipEout is BACK!

 

[DBT85]

. This is what drives me kind of nuts. We used to have a connection that would've born fruit, like, 8 years ago. But everyone has moved on.

Well I sent xdevEurope a tweet. Maybe if a few people jump up and down they might give you a poke. copy pasta or just retweet folks!

Please someone get in touch with m0dus on #NeoGAF to get some themes made #WipeoutOmegaCollection @SonyXDevEurope http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=225942126#post225942126

 

[Curufinwe]

Oh yeah, forgot about Zone.

What was the resolution of 2048 on the Vita?

 

[Bishop89]

YOU ALL BETTER FREAKEN BUY THIS!

I WANT MORE WIPEOUT GAMES!!
