ArtDink\'s railroad/city building series, A-Train, is going online with the PlayStation 2, the company has announced. The next version of the game, scheduled to make it out by March 8th 2001, will allow you to download new train vehicles from the \'net, and save them to the PlayStation 2 hard drive (which will be available in April 2001 in Japan). While not all that exciting, it has also been announced that future versions, scheduled to launch in 2002 and 2003, may allow gamers to build their railroad and cities cooperatively.
Choo-choooo!

I wish more games will be annouced to use  the HDD

Final Fantasy XI is practicly Garenteed to use it. Unless that is they do the Same thing Blizzard is doing with Diablo 2 and keep characters and items on thier server. It does prevent cheating but it also makes lag very evident.

with an April release of the hd device in Japan,it almost ensures a fall / winter 2001 release for the US / Europe i\'m heavily guessing...

I play Diablo II on BattleNet all the time, and that lag sux ass! But it\'s worth it to prevent all the cheating that went on in the first Diablo online.
