I'm guessing you're referring to X-box PSO. To that question, I don't know. But, just a little off topic comment: You really shouldn't be saying that word you used to abbreviate Japanese. Some Japanese take it as highly offensive such as the "n" word here with African-Americans. I'm just letting you know, from now on, use JP when referrring to Japanese.

[Coady]

Oh sorry didn't know, yea I ment the xbox version.

Part of it may have to do with the language barrier.

But the biggest reason is because ST has to use M$s servers. M$ has each region separated, and will not change their settings for just one game.

If you want to have that changed, you have to complain to M$.

[Coady]

Aw well that sucks, Who wants to complain with me!!

I already tried when I played PSOX.

No luck...

[Coady]

I'm not surprised.

I think the reason we can't connect with the JP servers is because the amount of units the Xbox has sold in Japan is so low. I say that the amount of people online in Japan with this game is equivalant to half of the legit population on the xbox version here in the U.S.

This looks like the start of another of those console wars that used to plaugue these forums. Actually if PSO was XBox only then I bet it would have sold shitloads of boxes in Japan.

[ulyoth]

it would have but the they arent stupid, they know which is the better console.

[Link00seven]

Stop the console wars...

Yes, because as we all know, Nintendo and Sony took out a legal injunction preventing Microsoft from having cross-region games. Next week, how to have fun with petrol.
