Phantasy Star Zero

Quote:
A brand new title in the Phantasy Star series was just announced by SEGA.



Entitled Phantasy Star ZERO, this will be the series' first outing on the Nintendo DS. ZERO is said to be a completely new game, though it will borrow heavily from the Phantasy Star Online series. This new title will feature a single-player story mode as well as multi-player online through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and local area networks (both up to four players). Multi modes will allow for communication through visual chat, which allows players to draw their own artwork or write their own text for their teammates to see.



Keeping in touch with its apparent predecessor, Phantasy Star ZERO will have the return of many race/job combos from Phantasy Star Online. This includes ones such as RAcast, FOmarl, HUmar and HUcaseal, but a few newcomers have also been revealed like the HUnewm and HUmarl. Furthermore, this new title will feature many new areas and lobbies to explore. Three such areas include the Glacea Ravine, Riou Snowfields and the Ozett Swamp. Information is a bit scarce on this new title, but we can expect to see more details in the coming months, as ZERO is slated for a Japanese release this winter.



Stay tuned! We'll be sure to bring you the latest info as it arrives! Special thanks goes out to Toadthroat over at the forum for bringing us this information! Feel free to join in the discussion!



Update: Famitsu scans


Update #2: The official Japanese PS0 website has been launched! A few important notes from what the site offers include the confirmation of character creation and that there will be a total of three races (human, newman, android) and 14 race/job combos in the game. Also, the main stage (though still unnamed) will be the surface of the planet as well as its moon.

A DS phantasy star, I can't wait to be honest. I think I'll import the Japanese verion when it comes out. I heard about it the day this information was released in Japan. I'm not hte largest Phantasy Star fan, but this specific game is meant to be similar to Phantasy Star Online, that being the only one I like. It looks so awesome, as you can see there are scans in that quote. I really want it. My brother and I are planning to play this game co-operatively 24/7. He's going to get a DS just for this game. Discuss this fantastic piece of awesomeness.

Right, so this was because Forte says he doesn't like himself. I want him to like himself a bit more.
