Bear in mind that "officially" the trial only lasts about a month so by the time it arrives you might not have much time left(although they may just keep the servers alive until the full version is released).

Also the trial package includes a FREE copy of the full JP game when it ships. Make sure that they are going to send this to you as well and not just the trial version.

Mindshare, you say you're from the UK, then how did you get the trial version?

And how are you going to get the full version when it ships?

PS: it's great o hear you can get online from outside Japan with the Japanese version. I was unsure originally to whether I order just the game or that and the modem. Now I know!

I have a lot of friends in Japan, one of whom was a member of Dreamcast Direct and was kind enough to buy it for me and then ship it on to me.

I would imagine by the same process, although I'm actually moving to Tokyo in September, so if it gets delayed, I'll just pick it up myself http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Yes, this was my main concern, but it appears to be dead easy and took me just a few minutes of fumbling through the Japanese manual (although I speak a little Japanese which helped).

That seems like a rip off to me. Normally, you get the trial shipped to you after the end of the trial. The product descriptions didn't say anything about that so I'm assuming the seller will be keeping or selling the full version when he gets it shipped to him. Seems pretty dumb to me to pay a couple hundred bucks just to play for a month

I had a Japanese friend search PSO's site for the place where it stated there would be a free Japanese version after the trial.

He found nothing.

Thats retarded, Its a freaking game. People have too much money too spend. Send some my way, I dont even have a GC.

On ebay people also buy EQ, D2 LOD, and other online RPGS for like hundreds and thousands of dollars sometimes for VIRTUAL items. Its pathetic.


Having this trial would be sweet, but like 400 dollars? It aint that sweet...

Phantasy Star is not worth 300$. Sorry. I'd rather play Counter Strike for hours on end than waste my 300 on this god damn game >>>Note to ebay seller. People actually paying for that need a shot in the head =). Have patcience! Wait till final release and don't blow ur molau

Phantasy Star is not worth 300$. In your opinion it isn't.

Heck, I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than play Counter Strike or any FPS for that matter, but that's just my hatred towards the genre showing.

i guess the trial could be called a "collector's item" since it wasnt released in america and you cant get it anymore, unless someone is selling it :/.
