To get online you would need a sealed copy of PAL PSO v1 or v2. You can play on official servers until 3/31/2007.

Please read the latest news on the front page for more information.

if you have a pal version 2 you could get a snak from sega, they do still hand them out for v2 but not v1. i dont think we have to conserve them very much now that the servers will be going offline.

Yes, or the japanese edition. Since august 2003, you cannot go online with the american copy.

You cannot use your US version 2 to get on official Sega servers. You will need a "SEALED" european version to get online.

No you cannot go online with the Japanese version outside of Japan.

Yea because you need to access an ISAO account to get online with the JP version, it prevents westerners from getting online.

why would they do that? honestly, i cant see why it really matters if they play with the jp version instead of pal version.
