Phantasy Star Online (Legal)

Thread: http://files.halomods.com/viewtopic.php?t=35512

This was released in Japan but never in america, so someone just got the files off a disc...and yeah. The file to download is a torrent so you will need a torrent downloader, here are a few links to Bit Tornado and Azureus, I prefer Azureus myself. If you already have one, just download the PSO PC torrent file.

Download Links:
Azureus
Bit Tornado
PSO torrent file
Note: Read the readme or else it won't install correctly!


This game is so totally awesome. Too bad I can't seem to get passed the damn dragon -_-

If I remember correctly, because it was never released here in the US, there are no governing copyrights to it so it's legal to spread (as long as you're in the US and spreading to the US) but as soon as it's released (or even lisenced for that matter) it becomes illegal to own those copys.

This, of course, does not take international copyright into account.

And not having any legal schooling, whatsoever, I could be totally wrong.

I for one think this should be locked/deleted. I'd like to think that the warez rule is based on principle, not law. The fact is that you're still stealing intellectual property.
