Did you collect the trading cards?

Postby Thoul » Sat Nov 10, '07, 9:53 pm

Back when Phantasy Star Online was first coming out, Sega released some virtual trading cards featuring things from the game. Did you collect those?

I passed on them, myself. I just didn't see the point of getting excited about that.

XD they made trading cards? They shoulda made em with PS1-4
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

No, don't think I ever saved any of those. I'll bet they are much sought after now and probably worth a good bit.

There were PSIV cards? :o I didn't know about that either. What do they look like?

Early issues of the Sega Visions magazine had some trading cards packed in. They were more of a general Sega games thing, but Odin, Amy, and a few other PSII people had cards.

I had a few of the PSO cards, but I lost them in a computer crash somewhere along the way. Pity they weren't all archived somewhere.

I never heard about cards for the other games. Are there any pictures of those anywhere?

Remember reading about these virtual cards once before back when I actually bought PSO. But by then the US website for the game was broken and none of the images would load.

In Japan they actually did have a PSO: Episode 3: Trading Card Game. I have a few of those cards, as there were some included as bonuses with the Episode 3 memory card and the Episode 3 soundtrack.

While going through some old backups the other day, I found a bunch of the PSO virtual cards that I had found somewhere. Maybe I'll see about adding them to the site. Those would be pretty cool images of the day.

I also didn't see the point in collecting those, so I passed up on them.
