A name synonymous with PlayStation®, WipEout® is the rapid combat racer that defies gravity and defines generations.
Known for its blistering speed, iconic music and pure multiplayer mayhem, WipEout has starred on every PlayStation format since 1995 - and is now set to rip through the air on PlayStation4 and PlayStation4 Pro.
Featuring all the content from WipEout HD, Fury and 2048, WipEout Omega Collection packs in 26 reversible circuits, 46 unique ships, a ton of game modes and some new and classic music tracks.
It's time for WipEout veterans to come out of retirement and new pilots to make their debut.

Do they take they payment upfront?
BuzzDuraband to powerbrick
25 Apr 17#15
Don't quote me, but I think they take immediate payment on PayPal and on dispatch with card.
Marcoos to powerbrick
25 Apr 171#19
On dispatch, unless you use PayPal, then it's immediate.

I noticed that after I ordered :/ Oh well, I'm in the queue if it doesn't turn up anywhere else cheaper.

I've checked on Game and apparently the steelbook is a 'preorder bonus' with the four themes.

Hitman the complete first season steelbook edition is also the same price.

25 Apr 171#20
I could be wrong, but I think you get that with any disc version.

I just see this being a pre order bonus also, just not worded as one :smile:
The standard one is £25 from Tesco mate. But I'd say it is defo worth the extra your are paying for that steelbook.
BuzzDuraband
25 Apr 172#26
Yeah, sorry. It was £40 on Shopto moments ago. I was just confirming the price drop there. But I do agree with you. It's definitely worth the extra few quid for the steelbook.

Just went to place the pre-order, checked my ShopTo orders and realised I had already pre-ordered the steel book edition for £26.86 somehow previously. Just had to cancel it haha!

Don't think that would ever happen I think Sony own the IP.

25 Apr 17#49
heat added,but pre ordered standard version from simply games for £24.85,saving a bit more ££ & having the game is more preferable for me

Showing up as 35.99 euros for me....:wink:

Yeah, that was before it happened, when Psygnosis (now defunct) owned the IP.
BuzzDuraband
26 Apr 17#53
Weren't Psygnosis owned by Sony?
MSK.
26 Apr 17#54
I'm bit unclear about that. I think they may have been part owned by Sony, then completely bought out by a different division of Sony later on.
BuzzDuraband
26 Apr 17#55
I seem to recall they were. Then I forgot what I was on Google for as I remembered they made Lemmings (masterpiece) and some other really great titles:smile:

26 Apr 171#56
Now a new Lemmings game I would buy in a heart beat.

26 Apr 171#57
Did Sony have involvement with Amiga games then? My games knowledge doesn't extend that far back :wink:
BuzzDuraband
26 Apr 171#58
No. Only from 1995 onwards from what I'm reading as part of Sony Entertainment Interactive. WipEout was released on the Sega Saturn in 1996, so I'd assume (big assumption) that Psygnosis were one of the studios Sony grabbed hold of to build their gaming division.
SEI was actually founded in 1993 and their first game was released (Japan only) in 1994. They then brought releases to Europe and such in 1995. Including (the title I'd nearly forgot about) Battle Arena Toshinden.
Whilst we're discussing games of the Sega nature. I'm not sure if you had/have a Mega CD? Do you remember Night Trap? It's been re-released on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 this year for a 25th anniversary. I'm kind of excited for nostalgia, but overly nervous, too :smile:
MSK.
26 Apr 171#59
That's what was bothering me, because Psygnosis were formed in 1984, long before all of that.
Battle Arena Toshinden is about where I started, I still have that one the shelf :smiley: Never had a Megadrive, SNES or Amiga. Just got to play friends occasionally. Probably a bit after the fact.
Night Trap has a familiar sort of feel about it, I watched the trailer the other day. But it's not something I remember. Maybe I'll give it a try this time around :smiley:

I just pre-ordered it so I guess it's back in stock.

game.co.uk also has this listed at £29.99
Not that I'd choose Game over Shopto, but y'know. It's there.

Anyone get the 4 themes that was meant to be included? My steel book was battered when it arrived wedged in with the regular box and sleeve from Grainger games...

Sony swallowed them up after the Saturn iirc and they still worked under 'Psygnosis studios' for a bit before later being rebranded a SEI Europe, Liverpool studios. then I think the link was lost altogether after.
