    One of the best console MMORPGs for the PS2.

    It's a shame the servers for this game are gone now, because when this game first came out, it had a niche' market that very few people in North America, or in the west played or even heard about. Now, I would say it is... Read Full Review

    A good game for the most part but with some glareing flaws.
