You don't have to use the keyboard, there are PC gamepads you know

[HUnewearl_Meira]

A opposed to say, a PS3 or an Xbox 360? A decent gaming machine can be built for a comparable price as a new (non-Nintendo) console, and an existing PC can be upgraded into a really damned adequate gaming machine for the same. Gaming PCs don't have to cost thousands of dollars, and they're good for tasks beyond playing games and watching movies. Personally, I own 3 PCs (not even including my wife's or my brother-in-law's), but I don't own an Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii, because the cost of the consoles is too prohibitive in this economy.
PCs really aren't very expensive, in the grand scheme of things.

Same I liked it because it's fun to play. Dances with birds is another one I enjoyed playing.

[Kinako78]

Well, I can't afford any of the new consoles, either, so there you go.
But I do get your point.

[Kinako78]

Yeah, Dancing Birds is a lot of fun, too.

[PSO fan 360]

ya guess your right and it was fun playin' pso on the Dreamcast with the keyboard but its get new computer for $400 or trade in my old game system and buy the most resent one for $100-200 (as long as they don't have move or that other crap for the xbox on it that would be horrifying to see on such a brilliant game)

[Vintasticvin]

Woooooo great show and yeah I think the expanded colony hub for pso2 sounds nice. Something i had thougt about, an expansive yet centralized lobby of some sort. Really looking forward to future podcasts and news on pso2.

Loved the podcast. Keep them coming. Glad to see people that love the game as much as I do. I would be very happy with any version they put out with the exception of WII. I don't want to deal with the lack of storage and low level graphics.

.

PC introduces hacking for sure. I have loved the fact that 360 servers have been pretty much hack free. Only glitches, as mentioned before, have been an issue.

.

My hopes for PSO2 are:
Mags return, Partner machines stay, techs go disc based again, less lag, same content releases as japanese (weapons, missions), more classes, let master forces shoot a pistol (eggs) come on, picture chat, and word select.

.

I remember seeing the japanese commercial of the girl playing PSO and the picture chat came up. Still gives me goosebumps.

.

Bought my DC for this, and I would buy any other console this would come out on. Done deal.

[raikou]

Same content releases would be nice.
Released at the same time would be great. Not released a few months or years down the line.
