Chrono Trigger can suck it. Phantasy Star was the true greatest SNES RPG.

Come on! Don't be shy. Tell me the truth. We already know the movie director, tell us the game director!

*shrug* I don't see what the issue is. He said that Yamaguchi first played the Phantasy Star games during the 'days of the SNES', not that he played them on the SNES. From the way that was written, I'd just assume Yamaguchi first discovered the series during the Super Famicom era. It'd be like me saying that I first played Astrosmash (for the Intellivision) during the days of the Atari 2600.
IGN makes more than their fair share of screw-ups, but sometimes you guys try a little too hard to find fault.

Sorry, but I think you're trying a bit too hard to justify IGN's glaring fuck-up.

Here's the interview in Japanese form. Actually, there IS an error in the IGN article, but it's not the thing you guys were pointing to.

....just please let Phantasy Star Universe have more to do with the original series than PSO. PSO was a fun multi-player game, but aside from some familar looking enemies, had little to do with Phantasy Star. it didn't really even feel like a Phantasy Star with all of those character classes. and whatnot. i didn't get too deeply into PSO. i quit after the DC releases, havent played Ep II or Ep III. or anything other than DC PSO. i still play it with friends now and then but....its NOT PHANTASY STAR AS I KNEW IT. even Phantasy Star III felt more like a PS game than PSO.... i don't hate PSO just... blah.
so I have hope that PSU is PS5/PSV or at least takes us back to Algol and has the PS essense......

Ah, true, I forgot about that part.
God knows how Sega's teams have been reshuffled. Overworks was mashed into Wow to make Sega Wow, but I've been told part of Wow was let go during the Altered Beast fiasco, plus you have the whole suck-everyone-back-into-Sega thing, so this 3rd R&D outfit could be anybody.
Considering Reiko Kodama hasn't been noticeably attached to a project in a while, though, she'd be my first guess.

Yeah, evidently Wow Shanghai was dropped completely (who were originally working on Altered Beast). Sonic Team seems to have somehow maintained itself though (post UGA take over), they're still using their logo even. I'm guessing the 5 basic divisons (Sega Wow, Sega-AM2, Hitmaker, Amusement Vision & Sonic Team) are probably still in place, just brought under one overriding management.WarPig said:
I want Reiko to do a Rayearth DS port.
Sonic Team is also plastered all over the official PS Universe website. Personally, I don't care which way the game goes. If it's a very traditional RPG, great, if it's more an action RPG game like PSO, even better (as long as the story is fleshed out more than it was in the PSO games). Also, why does this new game have to have much to do with the originals? Do you want the new game's story to tie back into the old ones? I'd rather see a new story that has elements of the old Phantasy Star games (like Final Fantasy games do).
Rayearth on DS or PSP would be cool, but does anyone care about that property in Japan anymore?

Didn't Sega actually hold a large stake in Clamp or something? Is Rayerth at all a valuable property over there anymore, I know it's somewhat known over here now thanks to the digests.WarPig said:See, that's why ya do it now, when you don't have to pay too much for the rights
Yeah, I remembered the Sonic Team logo but this loose Overworks/Wow connection got me confused. :/john tv said:Oh, for what it's worth, I was talking to jarrod, not you. But either way, I think I came off sounding a little bitchy when I never intended to, so my apologies to both of you!

Sega owned a piece of the Rayearth property, at least, they co-produced the show (that's why Sega's toys division did all the Rayearth toys as well). That was during the period when Sega was involved in a couple of animation productions (they had a piece of Nadesico, too).
