phantasy star for psp? sounds like a good game, ive never played any of the phantasy star games before, i guess this would be a good game to start with

[JKKDARK]

Yes, it will be based on Phantasy Star Universe

This is great news. So is this a homebrew? or a actual Published game. Reason I ask is because PSU (Phantasy Star Universe) for the PC was very graphical, (dunno about PS2). It would be great to get something that would connect to sane servers like the old PC/PS2/DC used to do. Which btw, I was sad when they brought the official servers down :-(

No no, it's an official game.

Thats awesome. (Yeah I posted to soon.) Decided to read the actual article :-P Anyway, I hope this comes over to the US. I would love an MMOish game for my PSP :-)
