In the classroom at JRPG High, Final Fantasy sits in the front row with his collar popped and sunglasses on inside, Dragon Quest is giving the teacher a nice shiny apple and waaaaay in the back by himself, reading a magazine about a Japanese computer you’ve never heard of is Ys. No one really talks to him except a few people but if you ask anyone else in the class you might get a, ‘Oh that guy? Yeah I’ve heard of him. Eeez or Yees or Yes or something? Wasn’t he on the TurboGrafx 16?’
Ys series producer Kondo talks about the series' past, and the upcoming Ys X in this interview commemorating the series' 35th anniversary.
I hope 10 is more like 8 or previous games . 9 wasn’t bad and had some good elements but the zones were annoying to have to clear enough orbs for points to get to next zone . Unnecessary imo. Combat was fun and story was ok but it wasn’t as good as 8 7 6 etc . It’s still one of my favorite franchises . Just bought Ys Book 1&2 on DS . I have the Turbo Grafx 16 copy also .
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "The PSP was blessed with multiple entries and this support continued onto the Vita, with remakes, ports, and a brand new title releasing over the course of the handheld’s life. It made the franchise a perfect choice for this series of articles, because although the series' future definitely isn’t on Sony’s handhelds at this point, it still had some brilliant representation over the past 12 years.
So in this article I’ll be looking back at a history of the franchise on Sony’s handhelds, from its origins on the PSP right through the latest release on Vita, with an emphasis on the quality of the ports to the handhelds as well as any sales figures that are available, alongside a conclusion of how well the franchise has done on the platforms."
Oath at Fhelgana, Seven, Memories of Celceta and Lacrimosa of Dana are amazing games. I adore the Ys series, and Adol is one of my favorite JRPG characters ever.
The new PC port of Ys SEVEN, a tried-and-tested PSP RPG from 2009, is relatively bare-bones but makes the game more accessible than ever.
cool, might get this....i saw it available on the PSN.
Pretty picture.
So many RPGs for the PSP coming bettewn agust to january,
Just WOW !
After Dragon quest 9 for the DS it seems this portable is kinda dead now but not the PSP !
this is really an excellent jrpg and i can't recommend it enough for all those who adores fast-paced action gameplay
Amazing looking title. Especially for a system that everyone always says "nothing new/good is coming out for it". ;)
