360 News from N4G | Phantasy Star Universe
360 - Phantasy Star Universe - Phantasy Star Universe Online Play Will Not be Free Contrary to the rumors, Sega's Massively Multiplayer RPG which is due out this year, will cost users a ten spot every month to play online. Orange Lounge Radio reported a while back that the MMORPG would be free for Xbox Live Gold members, and has corrected their statement after an email from Sega.

There has been a lot of speculation about fees for MMORPGs on Xbox Live. Because the monthly charges are meant to sustain servers and an infrastructure, some believed that the $50 a year paid for the Xbox Live Gold service would provide the needed systems and cut down on extra fees sharged directly by developers.

360 News from N4G | Phantasy Star Universe
360 - Phantasy Star Universe - Phantasy Star Universe details New details have emerged of forthcoming PC, PS2 and Xbox 360 title Phantasy Star Universe - including news that you'll be able to create and customise your very own virtual living space.

That's according to an article in Famitsu, partially translated by GameSpot, which says you'll use special "remodelling tickets" to choose yourself a room from a range of designs.

You'll be able to spruce up your space by purchasing special items, and give other players presents, too. When you're online, up to five players can come and join you in your room - and even when you're offline, it'll still be open for others to come and visit. And if you need to drum up a bit of cash, you can even hold a jumble sale in your room to get rid of any unwanted junk.

360 News | Phantasy Star Universe
Sega's last console, the Dreamcast, has been dead and buried for almost five years now. One series that absolutely refuses to die with it, however, is its online version of RPG classic Phantasy Star. The game has hopped from Dreamcast to GameCube to Xbox, never quite catching the mainstream MMO appeal. Phantasy Star Universe hopes to change that by offering a planet-spanning single-player game in addition to the limitless, online dungeon crawling. The series began as a traditional, solo RPG, ...

360 News | Phantasy Star Universe
Long ago, on a since-retired console, the universe of Phantasy Star big-banged its way into existence and a legion of fans was born. Since then, the battered series has moved from platform to platform as a sort of RPG hobo, never really getting the cozy home that it enjoyed on the early Sega game ...

360 News from N4G | Pimp My Ride
360 - Pimp My Ride - Xbox Live Video is broken "Technical issues have resulted in a very unpleasant experience for our members," says Microsoft

Microsoft has promised refunds for American Xbox Live users who have lost money trying to download from its new Video Marketplace, which went online in the States on Wednesday.

The new marketplace allows users to download TV shows and movies in both high and standard definition, including films such as Three Kings and episodes of South Park, CSI and, erm, Pimp My Ride.

Perhaps expectadly, the high demand for the new Xbox Live video service has caused many a technical hitch, with Microsoft's Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb admitting that "these technical issues have resulted in a very unpleasant experience for our members, including extremely slow downloads or not receiving the content they purchased."

The Major says that a team is working around the clock to fix the download problems, and that anyone who has experienced a problem such as losing points without receiving a download shout call 1-800-4MYXBOX.

"Thanks for your patience, and please know that the team is prepared to make things right for those affected," he says, "including refunding Microsoft Points where appropriate and as quickly as possible.".
