We the undersigned ask that Sony releases the original Psygnosis source code of WipEout 2097/XL [Direct Play] developed for the Windows PC operation system into the Public Domain.
There is a large number of passionate gamers who have been trying to get this bugged game fixed and working for multi-player, correct clock speed handling, full Vista / XP compatibility and music working for a long time.
Considering that Sony is now focusing purely on the PS3 and there will be no more development done on the Windows platform we would like the source code to become public so that the game can become great again.
Seeing this level of support for a game that defined my teenage years feels absolutely surreal. I never thought there were so many people who wanted to see this code unlocked as badly as I do.

Sorry for french.
La physique de ce jeu est sans egal. Meme si beaucoup on essayer de reproduire l'expérience, cela n'a jamais été égalé.
Je reverai de pouvoir travailler sur un projet reprenant le code source de ce monument de la psx. Merci d'avance.

Someone has just to DO IT.

This game is a legend and it deserves to actually run on modern rigs without hacking the registry every time. Sony doesnt care about this anymore so just let the community fix the netcode already.
