sorry if theres another topic on this, i used the search and couldn't find one so i started a new one.

anyway, this topic is for discussing the upcoming PSU game scheduled for a fall release on the PS2, PC, and XBox360. if you plan on getting it or have thoughts on it please feel free to share them. PSU is supposed to have both a single player (where you play as Ethan Waber a 17 year old) and an mmo mode (where you design your own character).

Note- this information came from GAME INFORMER Magazine

One thing I like about PSO was the subtle story, you didn't have to find out anything. But you had the option to flollow the story, and what happen's when you get to the end? Noting offline... online I think some rare items or something...

i plan on getting it but the price of the online service may determine what i get it for. if the price is too high ill get it for the PS2 jus for the solo play without worrying about my comp screwing my over. if the online price is alright then ill get it for the PC. I can't wait to see how this turns out. the guys at GAME INFORMER got to test the solo mode and they found it to be really fun, even though there were some bugs still in the system. The character creation for the online mode seems to be alright too. Can't wait :D

lol its all cool, but remember, the single player is supposed to be really good too.

as to the offtopic thing about my sig, i already know about the updated version of the sigs but since i was the only one who had this sig for a good 3-4 months (i didn't have the quiz up till recently) i think ill keep this one for a while to come.

I've played the other version on the Gamecube and stuck at it. The trailer I saw on Cinametech of Phantasia Star Universe looked great. But I think I'll pass on this game.

I won't be getting PSU if it was anything like PSO. Really, PSO was only interesting for about a month or so. You can only play through same, short story so many times. After that, it's nothing but pure grinding and item collecting. Then once you've done that, there's nothing left to do but re-roll. And do it again.

Anyways, if PSU wants my vote, it'll have to be a LOT less linear.
