Has anyone Actually got the Dialup or Broadband adaptor for the game cube, at present it only supports the one game Phantasy Star Online, however i was shocked to see that in order to play on line you have to register (that part is fine) but then you have to pay a monthly fee to play at something like $8.99.

I went into GAME and asked where the Modems were he told me that there is a problem with the modems and until Nintendo sort this out they wouldnt stock them.

I have seen other places selling them but has any actually bought one and setup online i am particluary interested in the broadband, but then again at home i have Freeserve Broadband and i asked them if they had any setup info with Gamecube and Freeserve, they just replied "Not Supported"

I Currently investigated the Xbox Live and this machine seems to be working fine, there are a number of on line games and is compatible with BT Internet and various ADSL/routers.

All we want is to play on line games via our consoles, but with problems with ISPs and Suppliers what can we do.

If any one has got the Gamecube on-line i would like to here from you , on how you are connected, Dialup, Broadband, the service, Freeserve, BT etc. also how you have connected up your Gamecube, viv RS Robotics Dialup 56K modem and last of all how much it has and is costing you to play on line, based that you are connecting in England

Well thanks in advance for any replies
