Phantasy Star Online 2 May Be SEGA's Savior (2D-X)
SEGA is in a world of financial hurt at moment and it needs something, anything, to alleviate the situation. Phantasy Star Online 2 might be the remedy SEGA needs. It's that good.

It won't be its savior if it will be restricted to Japan and released too late (2013 is too late yes). Being F2P (or to be more precise Freemium) is a good move, but we need a SOONER + WOLRDWIDE release. I really want this on my Vita.
i was in close beta and "open beta" sega jp is in talk to just translate text to English and publish English version them self, if not theres already some one doing a full english patch pso2 isnt ip blocked and wont be
Well Sega's been on the right track so far. VF5:FS coming to console this summer, hopefully PSO2 comes to the west as well. All they need now is polished Sonic game with more than 1 year of development time. Cue Sonic Adventure 3...
Its too little, too late Sega, you, like all these other Publishers, Had an ENTIRE GEN to put out AAA games, instead you published "crapola" games, 1 after another this entire time, this game SHOULD HAVE come out at the beginning of this Gen, now you want ME the gamer to save your "ship wreched" hide cause your in the red again, and sinking fast, NOPE, how bout you REFUND me the Gamer for all the crappy mediocre half heart, half baked games you made this Gen, & then maybe I`ll consider saving your Hide by buying this game, outside of this: HOLD YOUR WALLET.
It won't save SEGA since it only hits the PC market. If they had made it for the console to replace PSU then perhaps they could corner the MMO genre. Oh well, may SEGA R.I.P.
I think we may hear a pso2 release for a console announced at E3. They would be missing out on too much and it would be a bad, bad business choice (unless in some weird way an announcement for any nexgen systems is made and they make for the new systems) to not put it on consoles.
