    Game mechanics do not port well to Xbox and nobody seems to join parties. It's like playing an mmo solo and you can't do a lot of the missions solo.

    I loved PSO on Xbox in 2003 very much, but this game feels too different, in the wrong way. Weird walking animations like slippery footsteps, more mainstreamed combat system, complicated menus, menu sounds that will let explode your head, loot that feels not important. I am very dissappointed. Waited for so long. Would like to play the older PSO again.

    Phantasy Star Online 2 is a great combat system wrapped up in a bloated and sometimes confusing MMO-lite package that uses its charming anime flair to stand out from the competition.

    The problem is, Phantasy Star Online 2 still feels like a game nearing a decade old mark. Like man MMOs of our current generation, however fun they continue to be, and however nostalgic PSO players may feel when playing, it still has a quality of being a little dated. Still, there is plenty of fight left in PSO2, and if you haven’t played it, or any version of Phantasy Star Online before, then it’s going to be new to you. Phantasy Star Online 2 is a fantastic game with a lot to offer. With a generous Free 2 Play payment model, PSO2 is certainly one of the best options out there for gamers looking to try something different, without overspending.
