xbox PSO rollcall (for real)

Now that we know its gonna have a fee, who else besides me is gonna pick this up. I know Eric will be getting it, or else.

ill still get it.

just need the money for the game.

did i mention i hate not working?

well, I was originally planning on playing the gamecube version, but the no keyboard thing bugged me so I quit

now that after microsoft made an official statement stating that there wouldn't be a fee and then turns around, back-stabs everyone and says there will be a fee afterall, I don't know if I'll get it just for moral reasons...

oh well, at least you're getting two months instead of one month free and you'll have not only have just keyboard support, but voice chat as well... so i'll consider it...

oh yeah and whats up with the fucking concept of not being able to play offline without a valid xbox live account!? i never needed a valid seganet account to play it on dc last time i checked. that makes absolutely no sense at all. somewhere it was mentioned that this was done because the japanese version had it as well so they wanted to get it over to america as fast as possible, thus not taking the ten seconds to delete the stupid thing.

i don't care if in japan you would automatically have a valid xbox live account or not, just because they were buying the game with xbox live so they automatically have one, it's still fucking retarded to even bother to implament that...

microsoft mentioned that the reason for this fee was so that sonic team could update the game and yadda yadda yadda... well how come mech assaul tand every other xbox live game is going to have/already had updates and they didn't cost anything past the intial 50 bucks... this time around i have to say that sonic team can suck it... i mean the game doesn't even have a persistant world or anything even similar...

makes ya wonder if you could sue microsoft for lying since they stated again and again that after the initial $50.00, you'd never have to shell out even a penny for anything xbox live related ever again.

same goes for that seganet bull shit where you had to pay for certain games (was supposed to be all of them, but they fucked up). evne though i could completely understand why that happened, they still stated that everything was going to be free, so legally they had to keep it free unless ther ewas some fine print htat i missed...

FUCK!

edit: looks like i went a bit overboard... well my simple answer to this topic's question is "probably".

The reason for having xbox live to play it offline is two fold, first off the japanese version was built around the xbl interface, I dont understand what the real deal with getting out as quick as possible is though, its taking them 2 months. Besides why even have an xbox with out Live, its kind of pointless imo.

Second it will prevent offline duping which is good, xbox version could be the most hack free version yet.

I'd like it to be free, but I'm not gonna complain about cause I want the damn game.

I'm not... eek! eek! eek!

No, that's bullshit. I can't help myself and I'll be forced to buy it first day. Damn you Sonic Team.

Eric, you got xbox live right? You need it to play.

Now you have to have Xbox live just to play it (even offline)? This is getting sweeter and sweeter.

I hope that it's hack free, this way.

I'll be on for the first 60 days... that should be enough. Look for Goraniman!

Same here. I will be on for the 2 free months. After that I will probably be done with PSO till Episode 3. Cya guys online. buttrock
