ah i was a BIG fan of PSO so i look forward to runing home and dling this :D

well d/loaded it and played it for 25 mins, cant say im keen.. the gfx reminded me of the Mod for Quake that turned everything into dayglo colours and fired air pellets..

A better game for free (atm) is rose online (www.roseon.com) catch is, its so popular getting a slot on a server its a case of waiting for 40 mins before you can get on...

oh i played rose and that got tedious as i got a car and second class and there was no aim after that =( so i gave my stuff away to my bro

btw start game seems to be blanked out for me on psobb, any deas?

Maybe they should actually design a game for the _PC_ instead of this console rubbish, they could use advanced features such as:

-use of a nice pointing device called a mouse
-more than 4mb texture memory (makes the graphics look less 2001-ish)
