PSU Lifespan on 360

[SStrikerR]

I've been wondering, how long do you guys think PSU will survive on the xbox version? At this point, I haven't played the game in a while, so I think I'd really enjoy starting over and playing again. No matter how many problems I had with it, it was still fun as hell. I'd play again if it was expected to survive for a few more years.

I'd ballpark it at probably 1.5-2 years, honestly.

I agree but seeing as JP is going maybe more.....

Well, he asked about 360. So I answered in regards to 360.

I'll say about 1 year after PSO2 comes out not more.

It'll slowly die down until there's not enough cost for the servers to stay up, so I'm guessing shortly after the PSO2 launch. :U

[FOkyasuta]

I think like they do it like they did with the DC servers. Shut them down after 8 Years of running. Just a hunch.

I don't think PSO2 will have much of an impact on it to be honest - the majority of 360 players are not PC gamers. More likely the content drought will cause the numbers to steadily dwindle once they run out of non-gc content to drip feed us, which won't take long now.

Either that, or Sonic Team will have one of two options:

1. Actually give us the GC-related content as they've been promising ever since the Supplemental Update went live.

Or, the more likely option:

2. Fess up and tell the 360 community that the entire promise of the GC content release was just a ploy to get us to keep spending our money whilst quietly hoping for the GC content.

I will die if PSO2 won't be on any console, hate gaming on pc.

This. PSO2's launch would have a small impact, but not as much as a content drought/no fast response to Guardians License and server issues would!

But yeah, I moved to 360 during MAG+. Starting over was somewhat of a pain, but honestly with how the game is geared now it took less than half the time to get back to where I was. It's still very fun, and that's what matters.

i'd be shocked if it's around after next year. i haven't played since the supplement update, at the time the population seem to be getting back to what it was before AOTI. i'm guessing the population will determine it's longevity.

[SStrikerR]

Well, i wouldnt mind playing again. So what do I need..Don't I need the PSU disc, then I download AOTI? And of course a guardians license.

That would be it. But, you don't even need the PSU disc anymore. Microsoft released PSU on "Games on Demand" for $19.99 (which is either cheap or expensive, depending on where you would end up buying the actual disc).

You can buy it at gamestop for $4.99 Used.

Depends on the Gamestop. A PSU disc is actually a pretty rare find (seeing as they're discontinued), new or used, at least around where I live.
