Ok its not a supercomputer, but the graphics on my computer BLOWS MY GAMCUBE VERSIONS out of the water for sure.

I have a 3.2 P4 , 1000 megs of ram, 120 HD and a Radeon X850 xt 256MB card baby that , when using all the bells and whistles it has, is a site to see! I love it! I still have to adjust to playing on a PC though. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif INFACT I just bought a controller becuase NO MATTER HOW MUCH I LEARN THE KEYBOARD OPERATIONS it just doesnt feel right unless I use a controller. Probably just me on that one. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif I think I will move my comp to my 32 inch sony trinitron and play it ON THERE! WOOOOOOOO!!!! My card can do that. I love it!


One thing though. If my game looks this good now using my comp, THERE IS NO WAY IM GONNA PLAY Phantasy Star Universe on my ps2 now. NOPE! Not EVAR!

Hope to see you guys out there in PSO BB land.

BTW. I would leave you guys some screen shots but IM a dumbass when it comes to doing stuff like that, sorry http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif.

PSO BB RULES!

End of Line.

I believe Drithe is trying express his feelings about being able to play Blue Burst on a reasonably decent PC. He seems convinced that the PC route is the way to go when PSU comes out.

Welcome to PC land, a happy place of pretty graphics and general console pwnage at the expense of well, money for up-to-date electronics.

I use a (PS2) controller too actually http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif I played the original PSO back in it's Dreamcast days and there's no easier way to play it.

WTF that's freaky O.o I didn't post this thread... though I agree the PC PSU will definitely be the better one http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif PS2 is showing its age...~

Don't turn this into a "My PC is better than your PC" topic. You'll be going off-topic if you do and will probably encourage some flaming. Also, there will always be someone out there with a better PC than you. ;p

In any event, I agree with the original poster. I'll probably be playing PSU on my PC.

Wait...you can use like a GC controller on the PC for blue burst?

^No. You can however use a PC game pad.

And the graphics are cleaner on the PC and I like that.

If you can find a USB converter and a driver, then yes, you can use a GC controller on PC for Blue Burst.

wha? WRONG! u can use any controller you like. u can ever use a snes pad if u wanted to. checkout lik-sang.com they have just about every converter u would want. i am using a ps2 stick and it works exactly like the gamecube stick, so i would recommend a ps2 converter. just incase u plan to use it for other games cuz the gc stick is garbage =P

The Logitec Wireless Rumble Pad works well for BB.

As for PSU, don't forget, the next generation Playstation will run like a supercomputer with special modifications that are supposed to be even greater than the souped-up XBOX 360.

It just keeps getting better.

It doesn't matter what the PS3 has, PSU if for the PS2.

I'll be playing on a so called 'supercomputer' later, too.

It'll look all funny because it'll be stretched on the screen. Ah well.

I'm going the PS2 route for PSU, the graphics right now look really good, and the PC version may look better, but i'd rather the PS2 controls instead of a KB and mouse setup, sure there is USB converters, but why spend 20+ bucks when it will cost me none?

In short, if your PC isn't running BB at max settings, don't bother upgrading to play PSU with better visuals, stick to your PS2 version if you have one.

Mark my words! PSU will come out for either ps3 or xbox360.

I prefer consoles, that and my computer can just about run sonic 1. I hope they release a new PSO for the next set of consoles, and while they are at it do somthing to stop idiot hackers swarming the game and ruining it for everyone. I stopped playing all versions online because of this. Anyone know if the P.C. will stop it?

We don't know if the Blue Burst will stay hack/dupe/cheat free, but thus far it looks very clean.

Sega had made it clear they intend to keep Blue Burst clean and we hope they are able to do that.

I'm also enjoying the fact that I've frozen/timed out several times but have not lost weapons, mags, items or meseta.

Oh how refreshing http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

On Xbox Live, I met hackers and dupers in the first game I played. "Rare" items... weren't, and people just kind of slaughtered everything. That edition of PSO was seriously a cesspit, despite Microsoft's dislike of hackers on their service. I hear Halo 2 is also battling hackers on Xbox Live, incidentally.

In PSOBB, I haven't seen anything untowards yet. I'm sure someonw will figure out how to hack it eventually, since even the big MMOs get hit from time to time, but hopefully BB will stay squeeky clean. =)

Highly doubtful, unfortunately. It might but not for a long, long time. I'll be on the PS2 version regardless, computers and video games just dont mix for me, I'm all about consoles when it comes to gamplay.

PS3 will be able to play PSU because its backwards compatible anyway you fools. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif
