Wipeout HD demo coming Christmas Eve

Sony's just informed us that WipEout HD's been a pretty big success story. It is SCEE's best, and fastest, selling PSN download for the month of November. But SCEE's still not happy. It wants more people to enjoy the game, so it's releasing a demo version onto the European store next week. On Christmas Eve, to be precise

The demo will include a single track from the game. Once you've played that through you'll then be given a preview of all the other tracks. If that sufficiently tickles your fancy, you can buy the full version directly from the demo for a temporary reduced price. SCEE doesn't say what the cheaper price is, exactly. Only that it will return to its normal price on January 8th. We're betting this lower price and demo will persuade a good number of people, drunk on festive cheer, to part with their cash.

Hoping this is true for the American store too; would seriously consider picking this up at a reduced price.

All of these late demos coming. Trying to boost Christmas sales I suppose.2008-12-19 14:34:00

I think it's some of that, but Wipeout HD already has huge sales. I think they're just trying to rake in the skeptical customers more than anything.2008-12-19 14:42:00

I'll give the demo a go, but I doubt I'll be buying the full game. I love the original wipeouts, but it'll have to be quite special for me to spend any cash.2008-12-19 15:29:00
