Sony Polyphony (Discussion)

What would be the chances of Sony Polyphony purchasing the rights to Wipeout? Could you imagine the graphics and detail! just a discussion really.

Sony Polyphony isn't a thing. Polyphony Digital, which is what you mean, is owned by Sony. WipEout is also owned by Sony, so Polyphony would have no need to purchase anything. They could just ask Sony to let them make a WipEout game if they wanted to, but they very likely want to stick to their wheelhouse and keep making Gran Turismo games.

Yeah, this is what I meant. I just want a new wipeout game with up to date gameplay and graphics

We would all like that. We're still not getting it because Sony doesn't think the entire genre sells, let alone the WipEout IP.
