I'm pissed off that both Best Buy, AND J&R say NOTHING about the PC version. EBgames has it though, and it comes with the soundtrack!

Screw EB games, I am waiting until Wal-mart gets them. I never liked EB games.
If I go to local EB game store, I still see "Smuggler's Run" for 39.99

Well, today is officially the shipping date of the game. Start sniffing around a store near you the next few days to find yourself a copy since most stores will carry them Wednesday or Thursday. Here is a random gameplay video to hold you over: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTa-dnccFCg

I'm pretty much assured to get my copy on Wednesday, since I have it on order from EB Games with overnight shipping. The kicker will be patiently waiting until then if some store does happen to get copies in tomorrow...

I think I have figured out the my PS2 connection problems, so I will be picking up the console version hopefully tomorrow! Probably won't have a chance to play much until Friday, however, but it would definitely be cool to get in on the ground floor with some fellow Gamingforce members.

If you have a good enough PC to run it, I STRONGLY recommend getting that version over the PS2 one. The PS2 one suffers from slowdown when there's a lot of monsters on screen. (which is very often)

How ya doing, buddy?

I was fully intending to until I read the requirements. My processor is outdated, it's a 1.3. What I gathered from talking to my dad some time back who advises me on and installs all my computer components, to upgrade a single part would take updating for most my parts to ensure compatibility. And maybe I really should get around to bulking up this box in the near future, but as for today, I wanna play PSU.

I've got the game in my hands now. I'm working through the registration site (stinks that you can't handle all the billing and stuff in the game like with FFXI) right now, so I'll get back to you.

EDIT: Great, network error (-613). Does this have to do with opening ports?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I heard that the US version of the game COMES WITH NO CD KEY. So all you'd really have to do is install the game on your PC using a friends DVD or downloaded copy and register a playsega account and pay the monthly fee. I can't believe Sega would do something this stupid. This will only hurt game sales in the end. =\

I'm installing the game now, just went and picked it up after eating lunch.

I won't have time to play until after my classes today though. :<

This is likely so people can play both PS2 and PC versions with the same account, which I know a few of my friends plan to do.

And, billing is started. Now to just get the game and install/patch!

Does this mean you'd have to play the game on PC, or will this work with the PS2 disc too?

If any of you can help with my problem, please check my thread in Help Desk.

EDIT: Okay, figured it out. I had to set it to DHCP (auto, not manual). But now I have to open up space in my memory card. Hope the end result is worth all this.

How ya doing, buddy?

The JP version had a CD KEY. It was required to set up your account so even if you had the PC version installed you still couldn't play unless you bought at least one version of the game. But the US version just lets anyone register an account. So as long as you have some sort of copy of the game (downloaded or friends copy) you don't need buy it in order to play. Only have to pay the monthly fee.

This likely won't work with the PS2, though, since it has that DNAS check that's plagued many copied games from going online.

Well, all systems are go. I registered for 30 days (does it have to be renewed each time, or is it automatically renewed until you say so?), created a character, and went as far as the tutorial. Things are looking good so far. This whole game runs circles around FFXI in terms of shortcuts (checkpoints in dungeons=brilliant). I love the little chat boxes too.

Right now I have to start painting my room, but I'll be on later. Hope to meet up with some of you so we can learn the ropes together. Although I never played anything from the PS series, I decided to choose a name with a bit of reference, so let's see if people notice.

Name: Darius Forge
Class: Human
Job: Hunter (for now)

Catch you later.

Name - Uzuki
Race - Numan
Job - Force

Got in a group and did a mission. Good stuff so far. The not being able to chat freely thing might be a problem, may need to look into a PS2 keyboard. I stood in the middle of the ground floor and said, "HOW DO I SHOT WEB?" which resulted in from other players, "Sup /b," and, "All /brothers meet at the fountain." Thought that was kinda funny.

Will be playing more on the weekend.

Yeah, the logitech keyboard controller is just as handy here as in FFXI. I also joined a PT with 2 other people, but they were ahead of me, and I had no idea how to check their location. I eventually caught up, but they weren't the chatting type apparently. After we finished, the leader chose another mission but I wasn't allowed to enter (guess I needed a prerequisate).

Only thing that bugs me so far is the draw distance in the lobbies. Characters are grey shades far away, making them look like ghosts or something. Takes a few seconds before they actually appear. I've seen some cool outfits and robot parts though. There's a lot to learn, but I'm sure it won't take nearly as long as FFXI did.

The game just patched 4 times in a row for me, and it's doing it now for a fifth time. I got the PC version. Is this supposed to happen?

Well if I don't needa CD key, could Someone direct me to a D/L of it? I'd like to give it a shot, AND save money.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
