User Reviews

The best entertainment in net play

PSO is really the best entertainment in net-playing. I enjoy more playing PSO than Counter-Strike for PC. The reason is the diverseness of the game in many hours playing. In CS you only choose one of 2 sides and try to kill the other( or save hostages or plant a bomb). In PSO you and your role-playing game team of 4 characters at maximum will face a lot of labyrinths with a thousand of enemies and different sceneries. There is 9 classes of adventurers, including sorcerers, warriors, gunmen and robots, each one with a lot of magic spells, battle techniques and a variety number of weapons. And the most important: even without a broadband, you can play it without a lag! The real-time text-communication improve the notion of a group in exploring the dungeons. The real-time graphics, the light effects, the characters' illumination, the scenery textures and details, the playability, everything at all are excellent. Sometimes you look like a jedi playing with your light saber, even better when you have the double faced light saber, like Darth Maul's in Episode 1.

Just play it and see if is really good as I said(I have no doubt in it!)
