I just finished the download, but I'm kicking some asses in Enchanted Arms right now.  I'll check it out in a bit.   Do you think that we'll be able to party up with each other in PSU?

I guess you should be happy that you could play for 10 minutes as mine is still stuck on 2%  sad.gif.

Count yourself lucky.  This has to be the worst game I've ever played on the 360.  It's really sad, I'm a Phantasy Star fan and was looking forward to this one.  You're basically thrust into a world with no real objective or backstory.  The graphics are horrid, design is bland, music is cruddy and repetitive, and the gameplay... oh the horror.  Fighting is a button mashing fest and the lag with other characters is horrible.  It really is a shame. sad.gif

wow, not only does this game look like garbage, it also freezes after a few minutes into the tutorial like lowend said. its like the camera hangs there waiting for something to happen and then eventually freezes. thank god i didnt pay for this! wink.gif

wow man thats odd, i just downloaded the entire thing in about 40 mins... maybe you should try restarting the download?  blink.gif


Heh restarted it 2 times and first time got up to 3% and froze, so thinking it would go further restarted again and now stuck at 1%. Man was really looking forward to this game as me and my girlfriend are still to this day playing PSO. I'd be happy to just be able to DL the beta and test it out myself though  tongue.gif. Sad to think how long I've been waiting for this game and now with what you guys are saying about it   ph34r.gif.

yes, but the "good ending" (achievement) is the one you DONT want...

i have a friend who finished it, and he gave the ending up after i told him to, and it made me stop right there and return the game... i actually thought the game was "decent" while i was into it though, i liked the CG's a lot.

as for PSU, it already cracks me up, robots in a line, dancing for like 20 minutes without stopping!

edit: PSU not PSO

edit edit: tasselhoff burrfoot if anyone sees me in there!

Is it really that bad?  It doesn't get all gay again, does it?  I'm about 30%+ in so far and I'm really enjoying it.  I'm not really an achievement whore... how is the regular ending?
