The Phantasy Star series takes a fascinating turn, becoming the very first real-time online RPG for consoles. Well, no so much an 'RPG' as an action adventure. Despite having next to nothing to do with the original games, PSO was nothing short of revolutionary for its time. Yet another Dreamcast phenomenon that never got the recognition it deserved. Includes a 'Trial Disc' of the upcoming Sonic Adventure 2. Double CD case, Dreamcast GD-ROM x 2, 48-page colour manual, spine card.

The 3rd 'Episode' of the Phantasy Star Online series is set 20 years after the events of Episodes I & II, and takes the gameplay in a completely different direction: the battle system is now completely based around trading cards. Hmm. Opinion is still divided on this one. Standard GC packaging, GameCube game disc, colour manual.
