Phantasy Star Online: Red Burst

[mustis81]

Back when Blue Burst was first released, I remember seeing on SEGA's website an ad for an alternate version of Episode 4 of the PSO series. It may have not been called "Red Burst" but it had something to do with the color red (to differentiate between Blue Burst) and it was also to be released for the Gamecube. Does anybody remember this or am I just crazy?

I don't recall any of this.
(I don't recall seeing any Blue Burst proper ads from that time either. So I'm not suggesting you are wrong, just that I don't know anything about it.)

Do you remember anything else about it, like where you saw the ads or what kind of medium it was? Or which region it was for?

no in japan they released blue burst which was an high resolution version of episode 1 and 2 from the Gamecube on PC with quite some new stuff, like the multiplayer storymode of every episode and the quick command keys

Spoiler!

and after that they released Episode 4 separately

Spoiler!

I think you have those in mind
In comparison with our version, which was one whole package you could download for free.
don't think we got things better tho, which is not
PSO E1&2, PSO E1&2+ and PSO E3 are the only games released on gamecube (and a demo of pso epi1&2 but that doesn't count)

Anybody know where I can buy a copy of the two Blue Burst variants pictured above? Never seen them for sale anywhere.
