RPG of the Week 6/7: Phantasy Star

[A Genius]

A little, late, but my computer was acting funny.

Computer: Marry me!
Me: The crud?

Anyway, this week's RPG is Phantasy Star for the Sega Master System. It is, undisputably, the greatest 8-bit RPG of all time. Although you might say that it should probably be classed as a 16-bit game, since it sure looks like one. The game is highly nonlinear, which is the main reason why I like it so much.

I thought FE and Bamahut Lagoon were better.

But it's still a good game.

This Summer, I intend to get it.

However, knowing Sony, I highly doubt that they're going to bring the PS2 remakes to America. If they do, however, then I will buy a PS2 for them.

-A Genius (Well, since they're adding a map to the dungeons in 1, I probably won't get that, since part of the fun was figuring out the dungeons.)

To answer Marth's question, no. Not much. You can go straight to 2 if you want. As for 3, well, 3 has next to nothing to do with the main series, so I wouldn't worry.
