Great things come in bundles (just ask the gamers who got the Premium 360s). Sony realizes this and has made the move to bring you Wipeout Pure: Stealth Edition. While I hope this isn't just their cure for a certain lackluster Hollywood release, this definitely has the potential to open up a lot of doors. What would be more enterprising than bundling a popular movie and its very own video game counterpart in the same media package? I could see this happening with Harry Potter or other similar brands as time goes on. Stealth plus Wipeout Pure bundle

Fix the title, the movie is called Stealth, I believe. :)
It's a pretty crappy movie otherwise, though Wipeout Pure is pretty kick-ass.

Thanks for not telling us anything at all about the actual content of the disc. Thanks also for linking to PSPupdates, which consistently gets things wrong and doesn't care. I try to believe you guys are at least a little better than that.
Last time I heard about this, the game was only going to have one (unique) playable track, not found in the normal version of Wipeout Pure. So it's more like a demo, and similar things have been done at least several times in the past with other consoles.

Actually I think it has 3 playable tracks. Plus they're charging $40 for it, which is ridiculous.
The movie is worth, maybe $8 and the game has been out long enough that a 3 track demo is worth... who knows.
I'd love to see this happen more, but I think this was just a one time deal to get people to buy this piece of crap movie.
