Wipeout HD Coming Soon to a PS3 Near You

While the PSP sequel was being asked about, Wipeout on the PS3 was also being questioned. The title says it all. It will feature have online multiplayer. It will also be available on the Playstaion Network before the year ends.
During the last few weeks, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has been showcasing Wipeout Pulse the European gaming press at it's PlayStation-branded loft in London. While the PSP sequel was the focus of the event, questions about Wipeout PlayStation 3 were inevitable -- Sony's Liverpool studio director Clemens Wangerin confirmed the game in a recent issue of Develop magazine -- so we asked Game Director Tony Buckley for more details.

Understandably, Buckley wasn't too forthcoming, but confirmed the Liverpool based team wants to quickly release an iteration in the form of Wipeout HD, which should be officially announced in August or even earlier at E3. 1UP learned Wipeout HD is simply the first step, with a "major" Wipeout release penciled in for sometime in 2008. Wipeout HD will feature a online multiplayer mode and, while unconfirmed, likely HD-enabled tracks from Wipeout Pulse, as well.

Wipeout HD should arrive on the PlayStation Network before the end of the year.

    I REALLY can't wait for this game. I lover the WipEout series.

    And the fact that it'll now be HD is more than suitable since it's ahigh-tech/futuristic styled game.
