The game maybe playable on dialup. We'll just have to wait and see. Still, I think broadband is definitely a strong recommendation at the least.

Recommended is probly for maxed a maxed out game.My PC can do the Recommended,so I don't care too much.I just hope PSU does'nt follow PSO's online mode.Where if you lag,you keep killing stuff. Also PSO gets all wacked when you unsinc.I seen so many people fighting nothing,simply for the fact their system i being told the creatures are alive still.Even tho they been all killed.A true online experiance would be a nice change.
