I say we organize a Coup d'etat. Shed off the shackles of SEGA's Oppression!
It seems that the free trial is no longer in existance. They counted the open beta for the XBOX360 (containing the minority of all players) as a free trial for everyone, and if you don't play 360 I guess SEGA couldn't care less.
As you can see, bonus days are given
when you first sign up which is almost a free trial - but not quite.
The bonus days onlly appy to an account once, I think, so not every time you buy a GL (Guardians Licence) - or they would have just shown the days on the subscription options in a more straightforward manner.
So you have to pay, but when you first pay you get 'bonus days' - but at the end of the day I think you still have to pay whether you like what you see or not. So, it seems a pointless system.
Oh well, looks like offline for me. Unless I can get someone to pay my GL (from the US). I think I might be able to do that, though.
A bloody bunch of idiots Sega is.
OH so that's what those bonus days meant. Too bad theres no free trial.
Here's the best thing - it appears countries that do not use the Address Verification System on their debit/credit cards can actually cheat the system and pay.
Sadly the UK does have the system. France, Germany, Spain and Italy don't though.
*fumes* must... supress... urge... to strangle nearest SEGA representative...

Hehe, aw well it's not so bad. Hey Moonwraith, if people cheat the system and later their governments impose the same system we have going they'll all be forced to quit or somehow pay through US cards. I hope that's not a likely scenario, since it would seriously annoy a lot of gamers, and a proportion of the PSU community.
