Phantasy Star Online

Have any of you played the MMORPG "Phantasy Star Online : Blue Burst"? Well the official servers are shutting down as of the end of March 08, and as of Jan 9th 08 (until the final shutdown) anyone who has ever had a 'hunters license' i.e. a subscrition to the game, will be able to play completely free.

So in other words; if you've ever played the game in the past you can d/l it for free and then play for 3 months for free.

Doubt anyone here will be interested, but I thought I'd at least mention it.

1) The 'private' server is illegal.

2) It's complete crap. It's laggy, bugged to hell and constantly full. Not to mention the fact that they've messed with the drop-rates and suchlike thus ruining many aspects of the game.

Hey! Don't blame the messenger. I've only played it once for around 3 minutes, just remember someone posting that link on a clan website and thought it may be of use to someone, obviously not.

ooh, interesting, might re-install once the server goes free for the last three months.

I loved this game - played the beta - I remember running around with someone called...Yumiko I think. She/he was pretty high level and we (with a couple of other guys) would run around absolutely kicking butt

I never subscribed though :/

Inferior game.

Sadly looks like many of us original PSOers don't have a choice but to move there though. Ah well... at least it's had an update recently, with the AoI pack.
