WipEout on PS3 may let you create your own ship to share

With the advent of WipEout Pulse approaching for the PSP, and an old trailer to get you pumped for trippy-fast action, buzz has been accumulating for the PS3 edition of WipEout. While it has been off the map for a long time, we've at least got some words from developers at SCEE that could carry over into the PS3 game. It's the hot topic for games to exploit online functionality and downloadable, user-created content. With that in mind, we have to wonder what is planned for the WipEout series once it makes its next-gen debut.

WipEout on the PS3 plans to exploit the PSN, naturally. The devs want it to be a place where you can "download and learn anything and everything about WipEout." In addition to that, they're allowing you to go online and come up with what you think a true WipEout ship should look like. Why does that matter? Well, " I think anything we do on the PS3 will incorporate this sort of functionality because its not always all about playing the game, it's about getting involved in the game." So, what this means to us is full customization of our very own WipEout ships for any of the games coming out. It's speculation, but who knows. We'd go for it.
