NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
TOO MANY GAMES!
BRAIN...OV..ER..LO...

Ahem.

Strolling over to various websites, I looked at what was in and stuff.
Right after drooling around the house, I looked at the reviews for this game.
The reviews confused me.
Anyways, AGN is known for its wisdom, so...have you gotten PSO for the GCN, and what do you think of it? I heard there's an online fee, and there's no keyboard either...

EGM gave scores like 10, 9.5, 9.0. Its $9 a month for online play. They said Sega promised a keyboard upon launch.

Reading more, I found that while there is no kybard for NA, chat/keyboard is controlled by the C-stick, so you can still move...
Plus, the first month of online play is free. I'm gonna get it. I can't rent it, so I'll just get it. Hey, there's always multi-player.

Yeah, AoHell is a fucking bitch. That close...but now I have to get the modem (again, I returned it when it didn't work), and convince my parents to get rid of AOHell. I'll probably make a reference to price...hehe...
AOHELL!
Oh well, the offline mode is still pretty good. 😊

I thought PSO had a single player mode. Sure, it wasn't what was intended, but I don't think I would shell out the cash for the modem for just that game. There would have to be some really really good titles for me to do that. If PSO has a single player mode, I may rent it or something, otherwise, no big deal. I'm not all that excited about it.

No one is renting it...cause you need unique serial+stuff to play online. *shrug* They don't want complaints.

I'd love to play with you guys, but no way i'm paying money to play a game I OWN. Just another way for the gaming industry to rip us off...

You're not paying to play a game you own, you're paying to have access to, and use the public server provided by a company willing to host it... none of which you own.
