New In-Game Messaging Product Introduced for 'Phantasy Star Universe' Players

Blue Orb has announced a new accessory product for players of Phantasy Star Universe that allows them to type text messages directly from their game controller. The new Phantasy Star Universe Special Edition Texter is a Phantasy Star Universe-themed version of the Texter game messaging product from Blue Orb for use with the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system. Under license from SEGA of America, the Special Edition Texter is designed specifically for Phantasy Star Universe gamers.

Gamers can use the Texter with the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 2 system in online environments for in-game text messaging, with additional messaging options through the Xbox Live Dashboard for Xbox 360 players. Typing with the Texter is much faster than using on-screen keyboards and also replaces the need for an external USB keyboard, making messaging a natural part of the gaming experience.

The Phantasy Star Universe Special Edition Texter comes packaged with posters and stickers featuring characters from the game. Additionally, a "Guardian's Code" included with every Special Edition Texter allows the purchaser to get a free Phantasy Star Universe t-shirt in his or her size from the Blue Orb Web Site.
