Now, I'm not one to start baseless rumors, but does it seem rather odd to anyone else that there is no mention of the required Hunter's License anywhere on the front or the back of the box?

[Captain_Dude]

Oooh, I don't wanna have t'wait much longer...
I wanna gather up a buncha people around ST and MS headquarters and sing songs inappropriate to the moment in protest!

We could all sing Smoke on the Water, Iron Man, or even Irish Drinking Song

EDIT: Oh yeah, HL fee ain't mentioned on either front or back of the box... We can only hope... Maybe the fee will be part of the protest too... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

yeah, that does seem strange. You'd think they would HAVE TO inform the buyer about the hunters lisence. I mean it mentions the need to have xbox live right?

xbox page got updated: http://www.xbox.com/pso2/xfactor.htm

[Phelan]

NO HL!?!?!?!

[rena-ko]

hm.... maybe it will get a sticker somewhere?

otherwise, it also doesn't say something about server seperation or the need of an active live-account to play offline, or did i miss that?


quote from > here (http://www.xbox.com/pso2/) < :
An Xbox Live account is required to play Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II. To play the game online, Xbox Live subscribers will be required to buy a Hunter's License, which will give gamers the ability to travel on wild adventures with other Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II gamers. It also provides access to a plethora of online exclusive content, such as seasonal quests, downloads, and rare, in-game items. The Hunter's License is free of charge for the first two months and, after that, will carry a service fee of $8.95 per month.

The front of the box has an orange square, in it says the requirement of xbox live.

[staticlive]

hhhm... this does seem strange might be that Sega arent gonna charge for a HL for xbox cos they might get money outa xbox live charges

[staticlive]

Does it say anything about a HL

[Phelan]

yeah, the main site does, but I still am perplexed about it saying nothing on the box. I really don't mind the HL as long as Sega keeps updates coming ect. However I do think that there should be info on the box about it.

Dolby Digital! Yes!! Finally I can play PSO in true surround sound!

God, wouldn't it be great if Sega decided not to charge the monthly fee? But knowing Sega, that won't happen >_<

[ALPHAM0F0]

i would sacrafice a lamb using only a tucan if they would get rid of the HL fee. but i dont mind the fee, im still gonna play the game

[Getintothegame]

Wow, thank you!

[2Xtreme]

I just love how one of the supported features listed is "Friends".

[staticlive]

It would be great if Sega did take the monthly fee off from the xbox version... but i belive that aswell has having no notice anout the HL is GC version, my friend informs me that there is no notice about the HL on the GC box whether this is true i dunno its just what my friend said... anyway I would still be willing to pay the monthly fee for the xbox version cos PSO rocks

[Kalbelgarion]

Nope. You can take a look (http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/categories/products/product.asp?pf_id=223852) at the GCN Box Art yourself. It clearly states that there is a monthly fee.

[Joe-Azlin]

st is still gunna charge there cost monthly for the game and microsoft will still charge there monthly fee as well because neither company has really nehting 2 do with eachother. so they will NOT stop charging monthly for the xbox version.

[CaptainFatts]

new classes?!? what are they?! i have to know!!

[LollipopLolita]

no new class, i've been playing xbox pso and there's none.

They're simply referring to the FOmar, RAmarl, and HUcaseal--characters that are new to PSOep1&2, when compared to DC PSO.

[CaptainFatts]

that blows! i was hoping for some new chars! oh well, im still going to be playing.

[x2]

how would that balance out... if they actually made new characters Forces would get shafted because there are only andriods left.... and we all know andriods can't cast.

[Tulathis]

Interesting that the Downloadable Content box is checked on the back of the box. I wonder if they are actually planning to utilize the feature or if they just want us to know it is possible. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[staticlive]

That means for quests etc.

[Tulathis]

That means for quests etc.
It could. Either way it hasn't been utilized, even for downloadable quests for GC.
