Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Phantsy Star on line episode 1(version 2)
This product is more or less for old time sakes, its a little more glitchy than the newer games, but the thing about this one is you have to make more decisions because of the smaller bank size, also it seem like the monsters in the ultimate mode are tougher in this version. Still it is better than version 1 in the things you can do (the scrolling) It is still fun to play even these days.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Ignore the biast reviews.
This game is good. But you should only get it for two reasons.

The first is if you are a hardcore PSO fan. Version 2 for the Dreamcast doesn't match up at all to the Gamecube version. And most people that have been playing the Gamecube version have transitioned to the more superior "Blue Burst" for the PC. So this is a novelity perchase at best.

Secondly, if you are going to play this game, Sega doesn't have their Dreamcast servers up anymore. So you'll have to find a private server to play this game online. Yes, they are out there. But this game simply isn't all that much fun unless you are online.


There are also some key diffrences in the Dreamcast version in comparision to the Gamecube version. The most prominent one being that you actually drop the weapon that you have equipped if you die rather then it just merely being unequipped. I don't think I have to tell you what that means if you're playing online. And for those of you that are looking forward to playing all the offline quests, some of the quests that were in the Gamecube version were downloadable only in the Dreamcast version. So you'll miss out on a few of the quests if you stay offline. But you will have more fun with that quest where that useless RAmar, MOME, tags along with you to fight the Del Rol Le. Unlike the Gamecube version, he doesn't play dead and you have to protect him the entire fight. I thought I'd mention that for those that want to try that quest out in a new light.


In summary, this is a novelity perchase for the fans and nothing more. You can only have one character at a time in the Dreamcast version as well. So, whatever class you pick, you're stuck with and you don't have the other 3 slots to play with. It's also worth noting that the HUcastal, RAmarl, and FOmar aren't in this game either. None of those classes were particularly practical anyway. So, that's no big loss. But if you're looking for a version of PSO that can be played online for free, this is the best thing you can get outside of getting a hacked J version of "Blue Burst" to play on a private server (which is hard as hell to find now).

The kids that say that this is the best game ever, should know better.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Phantasy star online ver. 2
This is defenently one of the best games I have ever played. Its a lot of fun getting to make a character but even more fun to put them into action! This game rocked you've got to try it.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great
this is a very good game except that the only way you can play is online and sega is shutting down the servers so you can't play version 2 at all if you wan't this game then get the original or the one for Gamecube or Xbox
