Phantasy Star Online GC

Has anyone seen Phantasy Star Online in the stores yet? I am a little dissappointed that they were not in the sunday ads. I hope that means it was not delayed.

I don't believe so, but this game isn't supposed to ship until the 29th. I've been playing the import version, so if you're getting it let me know I can hook you up.

The reason no keyboard exists right now is the same reason the broadband adaptor is hard to find. Nintendo and Sega agreed to a limited test-run of the first batch of PSO and modem/BB adaptors.

If they sell enough copies of the game, Sega will release a keyboard and another batch of copies. If not, they will continue to support it in a limited fashion.

My store wont be carrying PSO Online or the modems, or the braodband adapters.Thank god I bought the last copy We got a voicemail stating that those items would only be carried by major retailers. Seems this is the case with GameStop as well. The broadband adapters arent THAT hard to come by, so If you spot one do pick it up for you may go without one later. There is no region lockout for the BBA, or modem with American GCs. With that said...happy hunting.

Does anybody here play PSO (Gamecube)? Maybe we can get a game together sometime. I just started last night. A little bit of the Battle mode would be awesome.

My Wal-Mart in Houston had the game and at least two network adapters in the display case.

Can someone quote me a price as to how much it costs per month to play this game? Also, is it a fee you can automate online, or does it require a check or other such slow payment option?

Thanks for any responses.
