My life shall be sucked away again. I was into this game hardcore on the Dreamcast and GCN, got Blue Burst but never found anybody to play with me the same level. I hope they don't do any drastic changes like they did with Universe, I could never get into that game for the life of me.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG! Once this comes out, I will never need another video game for the rest of my life, and I'm not fucking joking! Back in the good 'ol Sega Dreamcast days, I was hardcore into this game. PSO defined my summer of 2001. I played every night from 8pm until at least 5 or 6am tearing up shit with my photon claw trying to get awesome weapons and awesome MAG upgrades. Words simply can not explain how happy and excited I am that Phantasy Star Online is finally getting a true sequel! The gaming gods have truly blessed us this day!

I seriously cannot explain how happy I am about this. To get some hindsight about how sick with it I am, I had like 12 characters over level 100, plus 2 in bb on schthack over 100, and a ridiculous amount of crazy rares. PSO is one of my favorite games of all time. Its ironic. I just started completely fresh with my girlfriend and one of my oldest friends playing solely offline on the gamecube pso. My friend aaron came down, and I'm like 'man, im totally gonna do it, lets revive this shit'. For the next few hours we had the most fun in gaming in a long time.

You know why PSO is awesome for me? Because of hunting for rares, there is always something to do. And even if you manage to exhaust any ID, you can just make a new character with a new section ID. On Cube, i'd just give my new character my old characters mag, and drag them into Ult in very little time.
The music in the forest is among my most favorite themes in all gaming history.
I am so psyched.... I really hope it keeps the old environments, buffs them up graphically, and adds more shit.

if I had just one thing to ask for,
it would be a fleshed out story.
It totally deserves one, I remember loving and
just being gripped at the super paltry story bits the
original pso peppered in.
I could see them skimping out on it again though,
I guess story really doesn't have much function in a mmorpg.
(or I'm not sure, I haven't had much experience with them outside of pso)

I use to play this a shit ton. One weekend I played for nearly 72 hours straight. I ended up having to wait on my party to ID and sell things and I ended up passing out at the keyboard waiting. I woke up to the title screen about six hours later.
The only time I would want a fleshed out story is if it wasn't something that forced me to play a story mode by myself or with a pre-made character. It would be awesome if they had a story mode that you could do with other hunters. Then they also had the hunter missions/runs that you could do that would be more like classic PSO stuff.
I remember playing with a few of your guys back on the GCN version with my FOmar (Lutz n8). I wouldn't mind having the game on PC, but I would honestly prefer getting it on my 360. I would love to relive those days. Shit, they could have just released the PC Blue Burst game on 360 Arcade with HD Visuals and I would have been going crazy with anticipation. But a true to form sequel, not just some episode stuff, this blows my mind.
Sonic 4, PSO2...SEGA...Don't disappointment!

This is the news I've been waiting half a lifetime to hear.
With Sony getting ready for FFXIV, I wonder if they'd want another "MMO-style" game competing for players.

i feel like everyone in this thread forgot psu was doo doo.
im cautiously optimistic about this.
psp was much better than psu though, and i'll probably pick up psp2.
i bought my 360 for psu and i still feel burned by that.

If this were "PSU 2" I would be worried. I'm going to remain optimistic for now.

PSU was shit
and if great games are defined by the amount of time you spent with them then PSO is one of the best games of all-time
not too sure how i personally feel despite my fondness for the series as i'm not sure i'm the same kind of gamer i was when i was first into the games
at the very least it's news worth getting excited about
i hope this gets a console release
my piece of shit PC can't even handle TF2

I agree, PSU was horse poop.
I liked the DS game, and the demo for PSP2 was good.
If this plays like the original, I'm all over it.
Although I have to admit, I'm getting kind of sick of these games.
I'd probably get the PS3 version, I don't want to have to pay for Live. (I would if I had to, probably).
and what about this?
Wasn't that PSO 2?

As long as it is more like the previous PSO games than PSU, I am for it. I only had my PSU account for like 3 months and canceled. I had tons of fun playing PSO on the Dreamcast with a 28k connection (due to crappy phone lines in the boonies). The game still ran good with even that connection speed.
One thing that bothered me about PSU is that it just had slightly enhanced PS2 graphics on the 360, since it also was released for the PS2. I also remember getting stuck on my 1 player game and putting it down ever since.

Doesn't it stand to reason that they're calling it PSO2 for a reason? Hopefully it'll be a true successor to that beloved classic. And, uh, they did say that too.
I'm glad about this too, because I missed out on PSO back in the day. I'd already moved to broadband, so I couldn't use my DC's 56k modem. I wish I did though. Here's to second chances.

awe man, of course this game gets announced right at a time in my life where I don't wanna play hugely time consuming games like this. But If its more along the lines of PSO than PSU I will probably get it, hopefully I have enough will power not to waste all my time on it.
