The american players get the game at 24th of october but here in sweden we get it at 24th of november http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif I was wondering what would happen if i ordered it from the US. Will i only be able to play on US realms/servers or will i be able to play with my friends who has the EU version?

from what I understand, EU and US are merged, so I would guess yes.

yea all 360 systems will be connected. Sega fears the lack of people playing psu on the 360.

360 will have /us/eu/jp all connected, this is likely due to it having a smaller playerbase

ps2/pc will ahve us/eu connected, and jp seperated

feel free to errata me if Im wrong

No you are right. I just misunderstood you, at first i though you mean that the 360 servers would be linked to PC / PS2 servers.


EDIT* Kul å se att det faktiskt finns lite PSU lirar i Sverige också. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Hej hej Starshape. Jag bor i Stockholm http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif Roligt att se andra svenskar.

Sorry english dudes.

The servers should be crowded 24/7 if US/EU are connected http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif Great stuff.

Ordered from video games plus for a cheaper price than the game would have cost me in sweden (448 kronor)! Fantastic http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Thanks for the nice answers everyone.

japan has a large playerbase for pc/ps2, whereas xbox is a smaller playerbase alone for being a single system (not merged like pc/ps2) but not very popular in japan, thus merging them to make it a playable playerbase for them.

Sorry man I had to take a guess at what this means...I just love the swedish/finnish language cause it resembles my german language.

Does that sentence mean..."I am from Sverige, where do you come from?"

God i know im horribly wrong but it's so fun. Teach me!!

Uhh...yes. yes US and EU servers should be linked. Yup. Why not just import. Alot of places in the U.S. import. Amazon.com hahah

Verkar finnas många svenskar.. jag skapade ett team här på pso-world http://www.pso-world.com/teamcenter.php?op=viewguild&gid=1126 tror länken är korrekt.

Just ordered mine from there too. One thing makes me worried tho, Arrival time should be anywhere from 1 to 14 business days.

If it takes 14 business days, then i kill myself.

I live in DK and stuff from VGPlus usually takes less than a week to reach me. This better be the case this time too. Otherwise I'll be joining you.

I'm still ever so scared Sega won't allow us to buy a license with an EU credit card until November 24th. And that when the time comes, a license bought with an EU card won't work for an NA version :/ I'm taking the chance, though!

We don't know if it will work or not. Many Sega games ARE region free on Xbox/360.

What's your source? I really need to know this! Does anyone have 100% assurance, or a link? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

Callous
Oct 20, 2006, 06:51 PM
There's no way anyone can know until the game is out and someone tries. There is no word from Sega on whether it is or not and they're not going to be advertising it even if it is region free. You just have to wait.

Or just be the one who takes the chance and informs everyone else :)
