I just read psuniverse.net's review of PSU.
http://www.psuniverse.net/articles/20061...1928.shtml

I couldn't help but notice this: look at the names of the planets of the Gurhal Star System in PSU, and compared them to the names of the Algol System in the original Phantasy Star:

Moatoob -- Motavia
Neudeiz -- Dezolis!
Parum -- Parma!!!!!!!!

Same place/alternate Universe, a different place, or just a simple naming-after?

Which star system are we in in PSO? There are the planets Coral and Ragol. PSO doesn't have much of a link with PS, but I'm sure everyone will remember "Muut Ditts Poumn", which definitely refers to Motavia (the FOrce weapon Prophets of Motav is also a reference of this planet), Dezolis and Parma.

Someone keep an eye out for what the environments of Moatoob, Neudeiz and Parum are like, and report any other similarities to the Algol Star System!

Other interesting things:

Will there be a Dark Falz/Profound Darkness/Great Shadow?

What is the SEED? There was this very kind (!) computer called SEED in PSIV, was he the one who created HUnewearl Rika? I doubt very much that this is the same SEED, but I feel like I need to point this out simply because of its name.

Ok, this morning I finally got information on my university loan and I've decided I'd like to build a brand new PC for myself, one that's capable of running PSU at full spec.

I'm never built a PC before myself, but my dads done plenty, so he's going to help me out with the basics, but what neither of us know about is graphics cards. Can any of you tell me about what cards are the best on the market at the moment, or what ones are the best value, and will do what I want of course

The Card will need to be able to play PSU at full spec, that's the main purpose of buying it, but I also want it to be capable of playing newer games, since I plan on playing more PC games, and also being able to play TES4 Oblivion, since I'd like to try the PC version with all the mods.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Ok this game works by someone saying a word then the next poster has to make another word of the last letter. Like this.

Example:

Darkwolf:ground

Darkwolf(2)olphin

No bad words tho. and you can't use the same word a page twice.

I'll start.

I downloaded the demo of this earlier today (available from steam or www.introversion.co.uk) and it's rather good. I intend to order the full thing tomorrow, although one thing is stopping me - it's EXTREMELY SCARY.

Okay, I recently unlocked Ultimate difficulty with my primary character, and I was just wondering... I haven't gone after any side-stories in the other difficulty modes, and I figure that this is my last chance, right?

I'm talking about things like getting Kireek's Soul Eater; one-time events in the storyline that it's possible to miss if you aren't careful. So yeah, are there any other little side-quests like that I should go for? I don't want to miss something awesome, now, do I?

If it affects what I can do, I'm playing the Xbox version, using a level 70 FOmarl character, and I can't get online.

So, uh... anything I should go for?

Labeled Membership and priced at 9,99 EUR under the Phantasy Star Universe tab.

Guess it won't be long now (at least if my order comes in on time and it's region free).

Long ago, I was a super-active member of the Ragol.co.uk community, but then WoW came along, and PSO kinda fell to the wayside.

However, I'm back and ready for the release of PSU on the 24th (Though I may not be able to play it) and I'm already back into PSO: 1&2.

So, what's new? =D

The Kawarai One-Piece is bought from the Cubic store in Neudaiz, and is a cute, albiet frumpy dress. Comes in grey. For female fleshies only. EDIT: Picture of it here, top row, sixth one from the left: http://psupedia.org/index.php?title=Imag...lothes.jpg

Considering the Beta ends tomorrow, I doubt anyone will want to buy it, but meh, I thought I'd try anyway... *first post lawl* :alien:
