Neocrisis: 129 new screens for Phantasy Star Portable coming to the psp.
Man, Phantasy Star can be confusing. There are so many different kinds of games in this series, but they all get tossed under the same umbrella. The oldest games are turn-based RPGs. The newer ones vary between MMOs and action-RPGs. Wouldn’t it be nice if things were simplified...
Phantasy Star online episode 1 and 2 is one my all time favorites. Just make that better...
What I need to know is when is Sega going to make and release Phantasy Star 5. All I need to know.
Even if they did, then i doubt it would be released outside of Asia. We haven't had a Phantasy Star game since Phantasy Star Portable 2, and that was 7 years ago !
I don't know why, but Sega seem's to have abandoned the west when it comes to Phantasy Star.
Pretty much. You would think that sequels to some of their franchises or remasters of games like Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, Headhunter, Virtual On online, Jet Set Radio, etc would make them some easy cash as digital titles. Even VR titles of Virtual Cop, HofTD or even something crazy like Crazy Taxi VR. Nope. The Sega I knew just isn't there.
Maybe Sammy has them on a tight leash and just uses their assets for Pachinko games like Konami does. It's a shame being a Sega game fan but no Sega games to look forward to.
Seriously though! When I first saw this I thought I missed an announcement or something. I thought it was to prep people up for the next game. Damn
"Phantasy Star Online 2 (GameCube, 2012)"
May want to change that to (PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Nintendo Switch, Android, PC and iOS, 2012)
I need to know when the fuck SEGA is gonna wake up and make a full on PSO 3 with the unreal 4 engine or some shit so I can get lost in the best god damn futuristic world with my pet mag as their god-tier PSO themed music blasts my ear drums forever and ever.
Wake the hell up SEGA, the time is NOW!
CFD!'s Rob Rich reviews the newest Phantasy Star for PSP:
"A few years ago, players saved the Gurhal system from total destruction when they fought back the SEED infestation. Now the small collection of planets is in danger once again, from an enemy that most of its denizens don’t even know exists.
"Who cares, right?
"Just like its predecessor, Phantasy Star Portable 2 has a story that almost no one cares about, told through static character portraits and very little spoken dialogue. And that dialogue is both bad and awkwardly acted. But also like the first game, what people really care about is the Diablo-style grinding for experience and phat lewts. So does this second game on Sony’s “little handheld that could” manage to improve the formula, or is it just spinning its wheels?"
