Someone had posted this at another board I frequent. Here's a link to a Chinese site in regards to it. The 4 screenshots suggest it could be a port of PSOX. There's talk of shutting down the original PSO PC servers.

I don't think ST is gonna make much money off this one. To them I say just finish ep3 then hurry up and go to work on PSO2.

Actually yeas. They will. Ah-king has confirmed this to be true. Here is what he had to say on the matter.

PC PSO server will be shut down on Dec 31th. PC PSO Ep1,2(JP and Chinese version) in 2004, ST will use server save. The cheating problem in PC ver is very serious, people can use cheat codes to make all enemies to drop rare items(online)... In this summer, it has a hacked version for people to play PC PSO without paying HL, you will play it on the test server.
