There is one thing I can't find here which really bugged me in PS:P1. Will you be able to give/trade items to other people? Me and my friend was rather stunned when we found out I couldn't give him items in PS:P1 to help him catch up with me.

Only C- and B-ranks. A- and S-ranks are apparently not tradeable. I can understand why--the prevention of duping of rares and stuff--but if you can't drop an item you pick up in the same mission where you picked it up so you can let a friend have a drop that you can't use but they can, that would be really dreadful.

Look at it this way, using this new "Final Grind" system, if you have a fully ground B or C Rank that you don't want nor are interested in "final grinding", and someone else is, and even has the necessary means to do so, you can trade them this B or C Rank, effectively trading an S Rank indirectly, since once the target person final grinds it that's what it will become.
I mentioned this to a friend of mine earlier since he didn't even think about it, and I have a feeling not many are realizing it either yet.
I don't think that system is going to be as incredible as it seems at first glance. Its not like you could grind a C rank Rod 10 times, do a Final Grind and bam its a Psycho Wand...
Otherwise why would we ever need to hunt rares when we could just buy C rank junk and grind it.

That's how it'll work.
Not necessarily a psycho wand, but it'll be an S Rank, with specific "status effects" that apparently are exclusive to this type of "final grind" system.
I'll give you a PSU example itself: deljabaner to deljabaner+, a B rank to an S rank, with added virus effect and quite a lot more powerful.
I'd say that's completely worth it in my book, and trading with that in mind is perfectly viable.
Edit: Also, you can't do it everytime with every weapon, it was revealed that there's a limit of Final Grinds (or, in fact, "Extend Codes", the item that allows you to do a Final Grind) you can do, so you better use them wisely and with weapons you know you'll want to evolve.
Rod (10) is still a Rod (10) even if its an S rank, with sparkles, a chance to inflict Confusion and higher stats.
Rod (10) =/= Psycho Wand, is what I'm saying. Sure Rod (10) > Rod but its still going to be Rod (10) >>> Psycho Wand in terms of stats, thats not even mentioning the visuals.

The stats also increase when they turn into S Rank, so much that if they're level 5 weapons their level requirement is bumped to S Rank requirements (god knows what the number is, could be 50+ or more, depending on the weapon).
So, no, a Rod (10) is still not a Rod (10) even if it's an S Rank, it'll be another weapon, with different stats, S Rank equivalent boosted stats (they didn't say if this new weapon can have grinds applied to it, but I guess we'll find out soon enough).
Its about time.
Did anyone see the latest FunFan thingy? A Red (rare) box drop contained a C-rank weapon -- its about time they distinguished them.
Now, they can take all those cool weapon models they have and allow them to be good. Lets pray this solves the problem of S-ranks truly being the superior rank, instead of grinded A ranks. If you can upgrade a B-rank to an S, then you should be able to upgrade S-rank into God-tier.

Dunno if I misread it or just haven't seen it:
So the jpn release date will be december 2009....so are there some hints when the US/EU release will be or if there will be an US/EU release at all?
Thanks and my apologies if I can't read. (If it's already mentioned in one of the few topics)
