Who Still Plays, Dammit!, No really, who? Options

Yeah I actually logged on to PSO for the first time in a long time, and searched my cards...all of them. And no one showed up. Now I gotta know, does anyone play at all or should I just give up on PSO? If anyone wants to bust up some boomas, hit me up. It's lonely in the world of PSO.

Yeah, after I read and then posted that, I went on a PSO DS hunt. I found a few mentions of it. Nothing substantial, but enough for me to start putting my pennies in a jar.
The most intriguing aspect of what I read was the fact that Sega is putting in a voice chat feature. Now, why would Sega stick in a voice chat feature when the person you are playing multi-player with is only a few feet away (playing over the Wi-Fi network)? Hrm... seems to me that the voice chat would be for something more like internet play. Maybe??? MAYBE>>>????!!!!! OMG, that would rock. That would possibly mean getting in some PSO time at all hours of the day.

Hey Donkey, how is the BB community going? Hopefully people haven't destroyed it yet. Have those new areas and monsters been released? I am thinking about that giant hole in the ground level in particular. That looked pretty cool. Also, do you get the impression that they are going to keep making new areas/monsters/weapons/etc. on a regular basis? Seems like they could/would since all you have to do is simply download a patch that integrates seemlessly with your game, rather than the console versions that read off a disc instead of a hard drive. But, if that were the case, then the Xbox version could/would/should already have new stuff!
