Caris Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 What do people think of it? I LOVED the original on the Cube and Xbox i had 3 characters over Level 100 and it took over my life. I cant wait for the next one! i was considering buying a PS2 just for this, thats when i noticed its coming out for Xbox360! I can.not.wait for this. http://www.sega-europe.com/en/Game/176.htm Discuss.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 I too am looking forward to this game. I loved the dreamcast,xbox and cube versions. I will be getting it for my 360 release day. Apparently it won a few awards at E3 off various websites for best RPG at the show and on certain formats.
ShadowV7 Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 I absolutely loved the DC and GC version.Spent over 700 hours on 2 characters alone for the GC version on just Episode 1 & 2 and what an experience it was,loved it especially online,and i'm going back online with it again now.I can go on how much I love it.PSU looks really good.I might get it for the PS2 and buy a modem for it just for this game.I'm really hoping SEGA will announce it for the Wii though.
Caris Posted May 20, 2006 Author Posted May 20, 2006 They wont, i'll put money on that, get it for the PC if you dont want to get it for the GAYSTATION2 ROFL.
mario114 Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 How much is it going to cost per month, and do xbox live users have to pay for it as well as the xbox live service?
Hero-of-Time Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 If its the same as PSO then yes you still have to pay. PSO was about £6 a month.
Helmsly Posted May 22, 2006 Posted May 22, 2006 I was looking forward to it, but I was disapointed to read though that the Xbox 360 version of the game won't be sharing the same servers as the PC and Playstation 2 versions. I've also read that they are seperating the Japanese players from the american and EU players in PSU.There was an interview with the producer though and he said it might change. I'm still going to buy the game but this title was like my number one title I was looking forward to this year now I'm only half interested. BTW if anyones intereted, Sonitv team recently ran a beta test of the game and people posted video's of their gameplay on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/results?search=phantasy+star+universe&search_type=search_videos Theres loads of stuff at PSOworld aswell.
Caris Posted May 23, 2006 Author Posted May 23, 2006 Ahh man, im so excited now i cant wait. Is there any there for the 360? i cant see any.
Helmsly Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 No video's for the 360 yet bcause they where all from the PSU beta they did on PC the 360 won't look any different though. I think theres some video's due to be posted soon at gamespot and ign. The boxart has been shown however:
Caris Posted May 23, 2006 Author Posted May 23, 2006 Yea seen them before, they look awsome. Theres some 360 screen shots up on Gamespot though, cba to link ya's though.
mario114 Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 Is it true pc and ps2 players can meet each other, but 360 players will only be able to met with other 360 players?
mario_jr Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 Is it true pc and ps2 players can meet each other, but 360 players will only be able to met with other 360 players? I belive its vice-versa:hmm:
gorrit Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 Hmm, I don't know how excited I am about this. I played PSO on my DC rather much and played it for 400 hours on my GameCube, and I don't know if this is different enough for me to be interested.
mike-zim Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 is it an mmorpg? what is the game like a general description would be good. i am a WoWaholic.
Helmsly Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 Is it true pc and ps2 players can meet each other, but 360 players will only be able to met with other 360 players? A couple of weeks ago PSOworld.com put up an interview with the producer of the game and he kind of confirmed it but said that it could change. I think it sucks if they separate 360 players from PC and ps2 players. Another thing they confirmed in the interview was that the Japanese servers will be separate from everyone else. You can read the interview here: http://www.pso-world.com/phantasy-star-universe-e3-2006-takao-miyoshi.php There's no word of the pricing yet of the monthly fee or even if it will have a monthly fee (but I'm pretty certain it will have one) Although they are calling it a MMORPG I don’t think it is because there isnt nothing really ‘massive’ about the game compared to WoW of FFXI. Its just bigger (a lot bigger)then Phantasy star online was really. Theres a descprion at the official site for the game: http://www.sega.com/games/game_temp.php?game=psu The cool thing about PSU though is now theres a offline RPG which is sepereate to your online game. It has a main character and story. they claim will take 40 hours to play through it. Online though is going to be like Phantasy star online, where you pick a character, choose what it looks like and team up with people online to killing monsters and leveling up. They have vehicles this time too. EDIT- PSOworld just put up some video's they took at E3 on the front page. They should give a good impression of what the online and offline modes will be like. Online looked great in the first video. http://www.pso-world.com/
Hero-of-Time Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 I have heard that the 360 version isnt coming out til early next year while the PS2 and PC versions are comin Sept time. Has anyone else heard this? If its true I may have to get the PS2 version. Also has voice chat been confirmed for the online play or is it old skool with the keyboards?
Caris Posted June 4, 2006 Author Posted June 4, 2006 http://shop.gameplay.co.uk/webstore/productpage.asp?productcode=XT0101&title=phantasy_star_universe I always trust Gameplay.
Helmsly Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Official Site (Japanese) updated today with some more screenshots: More here: http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/
Hero-of-Time Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 This game is still looking sweet, I wish they would give us a definite date of release!
Adrian DX Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I LOVE the cube game (1&2), I actually still play the cube version sometimes . Might get the PC version if there's no big monthly fee.
Hellfire Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 I need to play a MMORPG, if this one's any good I might get it.
