Walz is the guy who will join your 3 man group in Phantasy Star Online at 2 AM to go take down Dark Falz.

Damn those were the good old days… Setting up my PC as a run through to fool the Dreamcast into thinking my DSL was dialup internet. I played PSO and Shenmue so much my family hated it.

DSL

I did some shenanigans back in the day to fake a local network for my xbox 2001, so we could 'LAN' with others over the internet, mostly 2v2 deathmatches. I remember you neede cross-over UTP cables, and we had to learn what that meant. What did your DSL/Dialup switcheroo give you ins PSO and Shenmue? Just regular old multiplayer?? or something like pokemon trading over the link cable?

Dunno where op was but in the UK at least it wasn't possible for the longest time to get the Dreamcast to use a flat rate dial up because Sega did a deal with British Telecom. This made multiplayer pricey af... I know this because my dad was not amused at the £230 phone bill I racked up in the first month of PSO 😅
