I'm a little scared about what changes they will make to PS4. Unless the are planning on adding voices, which I doubt, I hope the leave the manga cutscenes alone. A retranslation would be nice though.

I don't see much wrong with the translation as it is now...

Yeah, I thought the game was fine already (though better graphics would be good). Other then that, I see no reason why they shouldn't just leave it as it is (in terms of gameplay, cutscenes, dialogue).

There are a few awkward moments, like when Rune says, "You said your name is Chaz right" Even though noone mentioned his name at the point. Also it would be nice if they changed the names of spells, items, and places to give the series some continuity. For example in the game Hahn has the spell Gelun, but in Phantasy Star Online it's spelled Jellen. Or Lashiec and Lassic. That always bothered me. <br>

As long as they don't take out the funny jokes rune and chaz say I wont have a problem. I'm hoping they make more hunter guild missions.

I´m concerned about the PS4 remake too. PS1 needed a remake, because it was really outdated, technically. But what they made on that remake is basically make it look more like PS4...<p>Now, they will remake PS4 and make it look like what? If that´s what they are going to do, they should better not do it. A PS# remake would be way more worthwhile.

<blockquote>like when Rune says, "You said your name is Chaz right" Even though noone mentioned his name at the point.</blockquote> <br>And why wouldn't that be intentional? Rune is the fifth generation Lutz, after all. This may have been foreshadowing of that.<br> <blockquote>Also it would be nice if they changed the names of spells, items, and places to give the series some continuity. For example in the game Hahn has the spell Gelun, but in Phantasy Star Online it's spelled Jellen.</blockquote> <br>Correct, but since PSO isn't in the same universe, it doesn't matter. It gives them a nice distinction at best.<br> <blockquote>Or Lashiec and Lassic. That always bothered me. </blockquote> <br>La Shiec is the correct spelling. So essentially PSIV's translation is correct.

<blockquote><i>Originally posted by gm2987</i><p>I'm hoping they make more hunter guild missions.<br></blockquote><br>Definetly :~ . The translations are a little bit off: Algo-Algol Landale-Landeel Rune Walsh-Thray Volsh. Most are probably best left as is. btw are the remaking PhS 3?

The correct translation would be Algol, named after our star of the same name.<br>It was made Landale so it would be more presentable.<br>Name changes aren't so bad... most of them sound better than their Japanese counterparts.

No news of a PS3 remake but thats basicly because its not set in the same places as PS1-2 and 4...

To remake PSIII they would need the original head of the team that made it, who is no longer part of Sega. He had so many ideas, and so little time... That's why PSIII is the way it is now. There's much potential, but most of it couldn't be developed...

No Nine Neit changes to PS4. Its good as it is. The only thing I want to see happen to it is be succesfully ported to GBA. Only change things if they really need to be changed

Anyone else think it was just dumb to put PS1-3 on gba and not 4? Come on >.> They could have taken out 3 and put in 4!

Hell, they had enough room to include all of them (I think). But consider this: what is easier to find these days, PSIII or PSIV? (I'm talking about Genesis Copies). Go on E-Bay and check the amount of PSIII copies to PSIV copies. Last time I checked, it was easier to get your hands on PSIV. Archival purposes, maybe, was the reason for including PSI to III.<br>That, and numerical order, perhaps.
