they are really dragging us along. why don't they just cancel the game already. it's obvious it's never coming. It's been 2 years since it was announced in the west!

I'd still play it if it came to NA. I wouldn't touch any other MMO, but I'd go crazy over PSO2 if they do end up bringing it over.

Also, if they do end up bringing over PSO2 and it does marginally well, there'd be a good chance that Nova would be brought over too.

Sounds like what someone says when they're negotiating with someone but the other side is playing hard ball. By the time the game is released it will be outdated and japan would have moved on to another better version...

Yeah, they need to quit yanking our chain and just let it go. As much as i really wanted to play this game, i don't see it happening.

Agree, i think they will not bring it over here until they "finished it" in Japan.

Cmon will, for me is obvious that they still not cancelled because the "Bring PSO2 to the west" generate publicity, free publicity, they will not officially cancel it until this phrase stop, because maybe for you this twit is just a way to piss off many fans but for many other people is a relief. You know this for sure but sometimes you have to think the corporate way.

I'm current playing the game with Episode 3's Update....all I can say is now this game is "most completed" for western audience but also there are many things that they need to revise for making a release someday.

[/size]Also, I'm in the last bunch of Episode 1's Story.....I will post something about that latter, stay tuned .[size=78%]

I have a feeling that Asiasoft nabbed the exclusive rights to the English version from SEGA Japan, I say this because when they launched it they touted how it was the only English version.

This should be at the main segabits page.

To make matters even worse, Asiasoft lost money on this:

No it shouldn't. This is just the standard response SEGA PR has given us for the past two years regarding the English release of PSO2. There's basically no news here aside from that the PR message they're supposed to give still hasn't changed.

[George]

Yeah I agree, its just a typical PR response we got last September. Yep, in a week and some days it will be a year.

I'll post it on the front page when they do more than talk.

If it comes west it needs ALL of the additional content that has come out since as standard...

I think that is a given myself (if it ever comes) . Maybe SEGA West are waiting for PSO III content and then ship it over . Also SEGA need to bring this to the next gen consoles now , before other 3rd parties start to bring their online games to the next gen

[Nirmugen]

The game will be active at least 5 years more.
I can guarantee you that.

[Mariano]

It was created with that intencion.
