This is one of those awesomely-rare times (quite possibly the first in PS history) that I actually get to report that a Phantasy Star game is coming out earlier than originally scheduled. Check it out and rejoice, next month will be here very soon. :)

So there's only a month left till the English release, eh? Good stuff. Anything about how download content will work? Unless there's some huge news that the English PSP will have infrastructure-based multiplayer I'll stick with my Japanese copy though.

[Tyreek]

March 3rd huh? Heh. Let's hope it's good news for this game Ruby.

[Dragwind]

Some buds irl just recently picked up PSPs, and they're big PSO fans. They've been looking forward to the multiplayer on PS:P for a while, so this is great news for us.

[Tyreek]

I wouldn't mind mixing it up with a mod if this game has some usable wi-fi. ;)

[landman]

What about Europe? any more languages and not only Eng-Fra-Ger? or just English for us???

[Celi-Ka]

This game's being pushed forward as well? Very interesting.

[ThePainMaker]

Could really careless about the release date because ive been playing the japanese version but i would still say it is worth buying insted of downloading.

[SubstanceD]

I can't believe it! I am going to get to play PSP in less than a month from now.

[4x4eyes]

Well, if anybody has Adhoc Party for PS3, I'll be looking forward to joining all of ya for a game. I could really use the help if they release the download multiplayer missions.

[aarosmashguy]

yes yes yes yes yes. Just 1 more month to go.

Any word on a North American or European version of the service? Id love to have it in english.

[Akaimizu]

Pretty wild news. Looks like I'll be preordering a bit faster than I thought.

[Raekwon™]

Great news!
I dowloaded the demo yesterday and even if I didn't played a lot I really liked it :)

Can't wait till march... :D

[Lionheart_VIII]

[Sol_B4dguy]

This is a nice surprise. Can't wait for it now that I've played the demo. :)

[Jepp027]

I am very excited about this, I dont exactly have a working ENG demo but its only 3 weeks away for the full version

[OMitra]

w00t the game ive always wanted on a portable is finnaly here bawler!!!

[mummite]

My amazon pre-order says. . . .
Delivery estimate: March 5, 2009 - March 6, 2009

that is with 2day prime shipping. . . . I am guessing I should get it Thursday :( I want it now!

[Dagger_32]

I am getting off work early tomorrow, the nearest Best Buy is 90 miles away so here's hoping they actually have it when I go to pick it up! ...I might just call ahead... there are a few Gamestops and Walmarts along the way so hopefully this time tomorrow I will see you guys on Ad Hoc Party with PSP! w00t!

[bear39153]

Just ordered, was hoping to pre-order, but saw that it was out early(it's been a while since i stopped by here, >_< ). Been playing the demo for a few hours now, and i have to say that i really like the game. not as cumbersome as i thought it would be, aside from switching weapons while on the run(doable, but it takes a bit of dexterity on my part).

[landman]

Any news on the european release if there is any? xD

[RubyEclipse]

There is a release across the pond, but all you English speakers over in the UK will be getting it a bit later. (Official date still TBA, I think)

Glad to hear people are finding it and picking it up, I really hope we make a big splash with this game. Let me know what you guys think, I've beaten it twice now and really enjoyed it, so I'd like to get some feedback that I can pass on up the chain here at SEGA. :)

[Dustin27]

That's awesome! I'll be able to pick it up soon instead of waiting for a couple of weeks.

[landman]

And any news in what languages it is being translated for the european release? or will it be only english? (in wich case I will import it now)
