[Ryna]

During the course of this week, Gamespy has been running a series of interviews with the creators of Phantasy Star Universe. You can read them by going to this <a href="http://xbox360.gamespy.com/xbox-360/phantasy-star-universe/" >page</a> and scrolling down to the "Articles" section. Most of the questions that were asked had been addressed in previous interviews. However in one of the interviews, Akio Setsumasa - a network engineer - revealed that the XBox 360 servers are expected to be region-linked. Also, he confirmed that new online content will be released on a regular basis - along with periodic content expansions. He expects this will make Phantasy Star Universe feel like a daily TV drama. Finally, Gamespy has released a <a href="http://media.xbox360.gamespy.com/media/683/683256/vids_1.html" >new trailer containing PC footage</a>. Do not let the XBox 360 title fool you, this movie is definitely based on the PC version of the game.

Hmm the new vid is interesting in that there are 6 people with life bars playing and there is a PM with someone. So unless your PM has one of those health bars you can bring PMs with you in a full room.
