<P><FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">SEGA of America has recently signed a deal with e-commerce business 'Digital River', to manage all of SEGA's published PC titles for Online Retail. To go alongside SEGA of America's recent rennovation of their Online Shop on SEGA.com, anyone can now go along to </FONT><A href="http://www.shopsega.com"><FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">www.ShopSEGA.com</FONT></A><FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"> and buy &amp; download pratically any of SEGA's PC titles.</FONT></P><P><FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Currently featured games include <EM>Worldwide Soccer Manager 2006</EM> (<EM>Football Manager 2006</EM> as it's known in Europe), <SPAN class=bold><EM>NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2005,</EM> and the more classic PC titles<EM>&nbsp;Vitrua Squad 1</EM>&nbsp;&amp; 2<EM>, House of the Dead 1</EM> &amp; <EM>2, </EM>and <EM>Vitrua Fighter</EM>.</SPAN></FONT></P><P><SPAN class=bold><FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">SEGA of America recently used the Download method of distributing <EM>Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst</EM> across all of the English speaking nations instead of sending it out more typically to retail in shops as SEGA of Japan used. Does this mean that all future PC titles from SEGA will be getting the Download treatment instead of making you all go outside and buy them in the shops? Well, with pro's such as instant access and non-localisation, and the more business pro features&nbsp;such as huge&nbsp;time and cost saving, i'd guess so! We'll have to see with <EM>Phantasy Star Universe </EM>however since it is also due out for PlayStation2 release early next year. Since Europe and America are to recieve the game at the sametime, a <EM>Blue Burst</EM> release for <EM>Universe </EM>on the PC seems very likely.</FONT></SPAN></P>
