Here is an interesting quote from Ohta Kenji, the producer of Phantom Crash:
"An Xbox Live add-on disk is something we were thinking of to make this even more enjoyable, but this is only planned for now and nothing is confirmed. Or maybe in the next Phantom Crash..."
Now, I'd heard about the possibility of online for the sequel, but never as an Add-on. That might be pretty good, especially if you play online for money just like you do in single player. It would complete the motif they have presented. The more I play it, the more I wonder if Phantom Crash isn't supposed to be a mech game, in the classic sense, so if it fails to conform to my expectations in that regard it's hardly fair to dock it. More later.
