Consoles Hit the Net February 23, 2001
By: Mystery  
In a great piece by GameSpyDaily, we're given 6 new reasons to play PSO. Like we needed six more?

Quotage:

In your console-demeaning way, you might be thinking, "Well, yeah I've heard about it, but c'mon…it can't be better than the MMORPG PC games that are already out there, can it?" This is where your world starts to change, because the answer to that question is, "Yes in many ways, it's at least as good, if not better." However, some things have remained the same: boss fights tend to be repetitive, there are lots of find the pattern battles, character dialog sometimes suffers due to the fact that it was translated from Japanese, and NPC interaction is limited. Remind you of any other MMORPGs? If you're honest, you'd have to say that at least two of those things are true of Asheron's Call and EverQuest, as well as the online versions of Diablo and Diablo 2.
