PSP2: E3 Trailer and Screenshots

Ex: It's almost time for another looting and grinding adventure in the Gurhal System as the Autumn 2010 release window for Sega's Phantasy Star Portable 2 inches closer.

Currently Sega is busy showing off the title at their E3 booth, and they've released a new trailer to hold us over until we're able to sink dozens of hours into the new Action RPG.

Yeah, cute title. I'm fairly certain he did that on purpose to get some hits.

NexGen5071d ago

Eh, not really made for hits. On the Sega message boards, this is how Phantasy Star Portable 2 has been referred to for almost a year now. It was called psp for the first and psp2 since before the playstation portable rumor 2 surfaced.

I still get caught off by the acronym though, even though I've been playing Phantasy Star online/universe for years now.

The Great Melon5071d ago (Edited 5071d ago )

lol, I read that title and knew there had to be catch. I had to think through my acronyms for a bit.

zoks3105071d ago

He might not have, some editors have restrictions on how long their titles can be, but go figure... he will get a lot of hits out of it.

CrAppleton5071d ago

Press sheet calls it PSP2.. so it's valid

WhittO5071d ago

Haha... you almost got me.... I didn't fall...

Paradise5071d ago

I guess we will be seeing PSP2 at E3. But not the PlayStation Portable 2, Phantasy Star Portable 2. Love it either way.

Lacky5071d ago

you should really write the whole title.. this psp2 title is just for getting clicks...

peeps5071d ago

was just thinking the same lmao

killyourfm5071d ago

With the first sentence referencing Sega AND a Phantasy Star screenshot as the thumbnail? Come on now..

peeps5071d ago

some people will just see psp2 and instantly click the source link. an E3 trailer and screenshots of psp2 is surely news ppl would wanna see asap so may miss the details

Shane Kim5071d ago

I just clicked the source button instantly. I thought the picture was some random new game for the PSP2.

He sure got me ;).

Delive5071d ago

I read briefly and saw it was Phantasy star. I did not hit the link after that. The title is a bit misleading though. Had the title mentioned Phantasy Star, it would not have received half the attention it got. Not that it is a bad game, people are just looking more toward a PSP2 from Sony than Sega during E3.

LOL Gee, i wonder if he named it like that thinking it just might get him some more hits lol.

killyourfm5071d ago

Feel free to search around for any Sega press releases or on their website where they refer to it as PSP2.

SuperStrokey11235071d ago

Not you, you used the same text as article as you should. Unless of course you wrote the article and then you would indeed be just fishing for hits.

tdrules5071d ago

definately not a deceiving title

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.

The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."

Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.

just_looken36d ago

It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.

gold_drake36d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Jingsing36d ago

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol

SEGA’s Switch Predecessor: What Happened to the Nomad?

Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
