Hey guys.
Yes! Won an auction for an in-box Japanese Sega Mark III version of the original Phantasy Star, only $18 shipped! :]
Spoiler warning:
It's in really nice shape, only thing is it's missing the manual, not a huge deal. My Phantasy Star collection is looking up! :D
Is the game good?
Yeah, I'm not familiar with Sega games.
Oh yeah, the Phantasy Star series is awesome. Well, the original 4 are, not extremely fond of PS Online or PS Universe really. The first Phantasy Star game was definitely ahead of it's time. It was released on Sega's 8-bit machine, the Master System. It was a somewhat simple RPG based in a Sci-fi setting. It was more technically advanced than some of it's RPG rivals of the era. As opposed to Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy's static monster sprites. Phantasy Star had fully animated monsters in battle, as well as pseudo-3D first-person dungeons.
If you like classic 8/16 bit era turn-based RPGs then you should definitely try out the original 4 Phantasy Star games.
Thanks, I'll check Phantasy Star out.Hey Cosmic.
