Hello!

Hello and welcome to my Phantasy Star Universe blog!

I hope to talk about my adventures here and update as new and wonderful things happen. I would also like to share suggestions and strategies with readers when I have any good ideas. Feel free to express your thoughts here as well. That would help build a sense of community, and maybe you could meet some new friends to battle with! For those who haven't been playing since day one, this blog could perhaps serve as a nice history.

I should mention here the date I received my copy of PSU. It was a pre-order received on 25 October, 2006. The game was released just a day before in North America, and so I was happy that the package arrived so soon. My brother had made the order. Being an ex-FFXI player, I expected to have to purchase my own copy of the game, so I went to the store the same day and bought a copy. As it turns out, SEGA was over generous and I had just wasted $50! After my brother signed up, I installed from his copy of the game and registered after him, and everything worked just fine. Thankfully, I hadn't opened the game, and the store was willing to give me a complete refund within 30 days. I guess SEGA figures they are going to make enough profit from the network mode, because everyone and their brother (no pun intended) can install using the same copy. I can imagine the retail stores are not as happy about it...

Anyway, enjoy reading my blog! I'll do my best to keep it interesting for you! Ciao!
