WipEout 2048

[Vaskadar]

I had received confirmation from one of the game's music composers, (or hints really) at WipEout 2048. But now it's finally reared its head.

It's not Vita exclusive, it has cross platform multiplayer with the Ps3.

 

[Vaskadar]

Yeah, I read that before you posted. 'twas my mistake.

It is Vita exclusive, but the cross play feature works with WipEout HD Fury on PS3.
There likely will be no WipEout 2048 PS3 version though.

There likely will be no WipEout 2048 PS3 version though.

...because the content is already in Wipeout HD / Wipeout HD Fury.

WipEout 2048 will have tracks and ships exclusive to it.

I'm currently working as level designer/environment artist on this game at Studio Liverpool -UK
There is a load of new tracks currently exclusive to the PSVita only and as stated, the cross play is for the HD & Fury content that ships with 2048.

Well, say I never bought a PSP in the first place, and haven't owned a portable gaming system since the GameBoy Pocket... what then? Is the PSVita backwards compatible?

I really would like to be able to play WipEout 2048... oh, and Lruce Bee, have you spoken to Tim Wright lately?

 

[Darkdrium]

PSVita is backward compatible with PSP games and will allow for some features like screen smoothing.
You should be able to play WipEout PurE and WipEout Pulse on it when it releases (Though it most likely will require buying the digital versions on the PlayStation Store.)

Lruce: I want hard tracks damnit! Modesto, Chengou and Sebenco style plz.
Also you guys should come hang out with the fans
