Has anybody played the Phantasy Star remake(sega ages) on PS

[rgam2000]

If yes, what are your impresions? Or if you haven't, are you looking forward to it?

[Redeemer]

Dunno. id have to see it myself

[Benoit]

Akui (aka Andrew of Ill-Intent) has played it. If he ever drops by, he'll tell you<p>Personally, I'm not looking forward to it.

[Redeemer]

only if i see it will i be able to express my opinion so for now i remain neutral

[Mizehrith]

I'm still looking forward to the North American release.

[SkymanDr]

Very much looking forward to it, as well as the other 3D-ages games. (Thogh Ps1 is naturaly the most anticipated!)<br>Yep, I'm one for nostalgia!

[DaveGeorge]

since I havn't got a PS2, I'm not going to buy it, unless they release a GC port that is Yeah right, like that'll hapen !@#$

[Hero]

too bad for me as well x_x<p>it's a pity i dont have PS2 console. and i'm sure it's going to be a blast ^^

[Benoit]

It's even more disappointing when you know that they easily could have made this a PSX game. PSX consoles are cheap nowadays, so it would have had a larger audience and be more readily available.

Actually, it doesn´t even go near that. Could have been made ages ago for PSX as well with the same quality.<br>

[Benoit]

That's exactly my point.

[Mizehrith]

Heh, around the time I'd bought a PSX, I was even more intrigued by Phantasy Star-related material than I am now, so it would've been one helluva surprise to have seen PS:G1 on the PSX. All I had was PS IV; the other games included in the Phantasy Star saga were a complete mystery to me, and internet access was not an option at the time, simply due to a lack of availability.

I'm just happy to see that haven't given up on the series completely. It's been too long since we've gotten any traditional Phantasy Star games.

[DaveGeorge]

Hey HERO! You're back! Long time no see.

The only reason we are seeing these remakes is because there was a high demand for it, and a third party company is funding Sega for the job.<p>This was no initiative on Sega's part at all.
