Wipeout HD

Wipeout HD, trademarked and stylised as WipEout HD, is the eighth title in the Wipeout racing video game series, developed by Sony Liverpool for the PlayStation 3 console. The game marks the Wipeout franchise's debut on PlayStation 3 and was available exclusively as a downloadable title from the PlayStation Store; it is now available on Blu-ray disc packaged with the Fury expansion as of 16 December 2009. While the game borrows its tracks and teams from the PlayStation Portable games Wipeout Pure and Wipeout Pulse, the content has been upgraded for the game to render up to 1080p and at 60 frames per second with a Dolby 5.1 surround soundtrack.

The game was released on 25 September 2008 in EU and US territories, and in Japan on 29 October 2008. Wipeout HD and its expansion (Wipeout HD Fury) were released on Blu-ray on 16 October 2009 in the UK. Wipeout HD, along with its Fury expansion pack, was also chosen as a free PS3 offering as part of Sony's "Welcome Back" program due to the PlayStation Network outage.
