It's finally here: Phantasy Star Online
V.2! Yes, the January coming; PSO V.2 will unleashed to the U.K. Public!
Featuring a lot more and new fetures than the original game.
If it's going to be worth paying extra costs to play online, the first thing we have to look at is to see if the game has changed much in its one player state. Gameplay and visuals remain virtually the same in the single player experience of PSO Ver. 2. The game looks as wonderful as it has always, with some of the best textures in any video game. Additions have been made to the gameplay so that you'll find items that are much more useful; when you beat the first boss, you'll get upgraded items that are well-fitted to your character. For that matter, most of the rares you find offline will be ones that your character can use, and meseta seems to be much more plentiful in the offline game. One change that will benefit the gamer is the quick select. Press and hold the R Trigger and press Y, and it pops up the quick item/equipment screen. Of course, there's the big addition of Ultimate mode that is available for characters level 80 and above. Finally, there's the very humorous soccer mode called Go Go Ball. There's really no special technique involved here - just get your character to charge at the "ball" and it will move accordingly. You don't kick the ball into a goal. There's a circular hole where you have to put the ball on to score a point. There are some hilarious animations when you score a goal and those that have seen the Chu Chu Rocket version of Go Go Ball know exactly what I mean. With the new payment system and Sonic Team paying much closer attention to the servers, cheating and hacking haven't been a factor yet and there are now warning messages that will state any "illegal activities" will have you banned. Hopefully, the improved safety guards and the vigilance of Sonic Team will be enough to keep those party crashers from casting healing spells that drain health in PSO Ver. 2.
Anticipation: 8/10 "Looks set to storm PSO fans, but none other" |
