You'll be banned, that's why.

If you try the same card more than 3 times you get a 24 hour ban.

I tried more than 3 times on thursday night, so my bans lifted for today.

I assume you tried 3 times yesterday? Meaning your ban will be lifted today sometime.

That's what the message "The credit card details cannot be updated right now" means.

All I can say, it turn up your amp :)

so did you not try it at all yesterday?? if so, how many times did you try it (or does it just time it from the 1st three attempts?)...

ps. i was only kidding about the whole murder thing.

edit: also, i just phoned them and he said there wasnt a problem on their end, which there must of been, because why else would my card of been rejected in the 1st 3 attempts (all details were spot on...)

From the first time you seen the message "The credit card details cannot be updated right now" a 24 hour ban is in place I believe.

There is no problem at their end now I don't think as my card worked, but there was up until today.

I entered my details today by going right into the store and clicking buy now on Wipeout HD and it asked me for a card.

Ok, i have a question. I've downloaded that soundtrack, but...

1. Unzip the package

Unzip the package on a USB key. Select "Extract Here" if you can. There should be 2 folders in your jumpdrive's root directory, "MUSIC" and "PICTURE".

how are you meant to unzip it when it's a .rar file? Or am i missing something?

[ShadowMoses]

winrar (google it)

[OzO63]

Haha, sorted.. cheers! ;)

Got this when it came out -- it really is properly good ;) Bit of a shame that's not a whole new game because it's one of the best HD games i've seen.

[ShadowMoses]

For ?11.99 I wasn't expecting a brand new game, but then what can they do to make it 'new'? New tracks will come out I'm sure but it's essentially the same game isn't it?

I think it's a must have game if you have a pS3.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Bit of a shame that's not a whole new game because it's one of the best HD games i've seen.

Definitely the most annoying part of it all, or worse still why not just make a full retail game with 100% new content.

[Si_]

I was being a bit sarcastic there... enjoying the game loads but it just leaves you wanting something new/longer/something not in older games :p

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Yeah I agree with you, the game looks great and they've done a good job of it by the sounds of all the reviews. The exact reason I'm not rushing out to buy it though is because I already have the previous games where they took the tracks etc.

I may buy it still as I'm a bit starved of games right now until the 24th. Also looking at COH though!

[houlty]

thank **** for that, my card finally works...

yeh but pure/pulse on psp with ****ty psp controls and 480*272 display cant compete against the ps3 version

[Sethos]

I am really on the edge, should I buy this game or not? Really miss an extremely fast paced game where reaction times is the key element. I never really got into WipeOut, had a few of the games but back then they just seemed like a low-budget racer but my opinion changed over the years.

So is this as fast paced as I remember it or just some slow racer on some colourful tracks created by developers on shrooms?

It can when they are free :yes: I won't say anymore :p

[LingeringSoul]

I played this at my buddy's house today, and good God, it is amazing. I'm a pretty big WipEout fan, so maybe it's hard for me to be impartial, but this game definitely does justice to the franchise. If you've played either of the PSP WipEout games you'll be right at home.

Between this and the upcoming Socom game, the PS3 is looking so tempting right now.

[FiB3R]

Say no more, but it really is a completely different experience. ;)

It's well worth it m8, honest.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Anyone setting up Neowin MP matches?

Or is this another game you all pretend to not know each other online in but talk about all the time on here :p

[ShadowMoses]

Too busy with single player at the moment. Played 2 races last night online and it's flawless, so looking forward to getting more involved at some point.

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

I'm too crap to play online just now, learning SP first.

[ShadowMoses]

Put autopilot on

Yeah I do, but I still want to skill up a bit before I go online.

Main thing is to learn the courses inside out on Venom speed first. The campaign mode is great for setting you up for Rapier/Phantom races because it forces you to go through all the race courses repeatedly slowly first.

Just remember that when you do move up a speed bracket your driving tactics and lines will have to change slightly. Generally... slow speeds = more d-pad, less airbrakes/sideshifts, fast speeds = less d-pad, more airbrakes/sideshifts.
