What it Was: "Essentially, 'Diablo' in space. Crawl through space dungeons, kill things, level up, and buy cooler items. Repeat with three friends online for 100 hours."
Why You Didn't Buy It: "Well, it did say, 'Xbox Live Required to Play' on the box, even though that wasn't exactly true. Plus, as you'll see throughout this list (the other 19 games), Sega's in-house products tended to have an inverse relationship between quality and sales (i.e., the better they were, the fewer copies they sold)"
Why it Still Rocks: "What part of 'Diablo' in space' didn't just make you run out to the store?"
Current Price and Availability: "No longer available new; $9.99 used at EBgames.com"
Backwards Compatability with Xbox 360: "No""

and i dont know about Europe/USA.. lol.. maybe people didnt like they had to have a live account to play.
i noticed you mentioned about the live part in the article, i believe what that refers to is, that the game requires an xbox live account to play, in other words if your signed up, your info is stored on the xbox itself, and thus when you put the game in, you can play offline
