GameCube Modem Adapter

Modemy!

Like most people, I do not have Broadband internet access at home yet so my only method of playing Phantasy Star Online is through this and my second phone line.However, the game plays fine with very little evidence of lag with my ISP, and most people I've met online have 56ks anyway.Word of warning though, before buying, contact your ISP about using playing online through your Gamecube because some 'don't except third party software'. Luckily, I changed ISP to one that accepts online gaming and the sign up process on PSO was quick and easy.So, if you're playing PSO and aren't intending on getting Broadband in the near future then this is a solid, reliable option and really an essential purchase.

This adaptor is a must have for any Gamecube user along with the first Gamecube online game, Phantasy Star 1 and 2. Whether you need a broadband or just regular modem adaptor, one has to be bought soon to utilise the full gaming capabilities of that Cube. If you do not hav any friends with whom you can play video games, this modem adaptor will enable you to play with others with the same interests from as far away as Tokyo.To go online with the Gamecube and your adaptor, you will also need an active account with an internet service provider (ISP) or the data required for dialling up to the internet (username, password and dial-up number) with a call-by-call provider.So, to sum up, YOU MUST BUY THIS ALONG WITH PHANTASY STAR ONLINE

What else can I say? If you want to access the Gamecube's (currently limited) selection of online games, you'll need this adapter to do so. Its very disreet and fits under the machine in one of the empty bays. The telephone line will fit into the socket revealed at the side. The modem seems to make no noise what-so-ever, even when dialling up, which is nice to see, and although there may be some issues wih what ISPs you can use for connecting to Phantasy Star Online, this is down to their servers and the method of connection rather than th modem itself. The hardware is perfectly fine.

the gamecube modem adapter is a esential piece of hardware for any person who wants to play online games and doesnt have a broadband phone line at home,the modem will run of a standard phone line but you also need a isp to connect to the internet with the modem and only a few isp's dont work for example (aol) so other than that is a good product and it will provide fast and easy access to online gaming for people of all ages and really bring some games to life
