Electronic Gaming Monthly: EGM 177, page 129

Postby Thoul » Fri Aug 12, '11, 12:01 am

In issue #177, from April 2004, Electronic Gaming Monthly provided a brief review of Phantasy Star Online Episode III. The three reviewers focus on the game's switch to a card based gameplay system. All of them agree that the game adds new complexity to the series, but would have benefited from the addition of voice chat. They awarded the game the highest review score in this issue, making Phantasy Star Online Episode III the Game of the Month. Even so, the article only spans about two thirds of the page. The remaining third, not included in this scan, is an unrelated advertisement. For the sake of comparison, the longest review in this issue is two full pages devoted entirely to Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, which scored a mere half point lower on the review scale.

I liked the story, but I am personally not a fan of card games like these so I passed on purchasing this. Though, I might have picked up at a later date simply so I could say I own all the PSO games, lol.
