This review of the original Phantasy Star is from the August, 1989 issue of Video Games & Computer Entertainment. I did the best I could scanning it from two pages.
PS1 artwork sent to GamePro from a reader in their 4th issue. November, 1989.
I can't read German, but it's nice to see the pictures. Thanks!
I'm sure most here have seen the following review posted on Fringes of Algo. It was from U.S. National Video Game Team's Electronic Game Player magazine, under Sendai Publications and written by Steve Harris. Electronic Game Player was the forerunner to Electronic Gaming Monthly (EGM) lasting only 4 issues during 1988.
