Phantasy Star Portable for PSP! Never mind

Wednesday 5-Dec-2007 8:05 AM Nothing to see here... it's just a port of Phantasy Star Universe
2 Comments
The latest issue of Japanese Famitsu magazine reveals Phantasy Star Portable for the PSP. Excellent news we thought, then noticed that it's just a port of PS2 and 360 effort Phantasy Star Universe... without the online stuff.

Phantasy Star Portable (to avoid confusion we won't refer to it as 'PSP') is based on the PS2 and 360 MMO and its upcoming expansion, with the addition of new missions and story points.

Unfortunately the online mode - the focus point of PSU - has been reduced to 4-player wireless multiplayer. Disappointing, but if they can cut off the story fluff for wireless games it could turn out to be a harmless, fun hack-n-slash.

The handheld version is being handled (ho ho!) by Japanese developer Alpha System, who we (and our mate Google) have never heard off. Lets cross our fingers together.

"Your mate" Google obviously likes me better, because I assume this is probably them. Right name, right country, right area of business (sort of) Smile

PSU without the online mode? waste of time if you ask me, i own PSU for the 360 and play it online all the time, it rocks but the sory mode sucks ass big time!!!!! If they remove the online mode from the PSP version then it will be totall tosh. And no, 4 player wireless is not the same. No where near!
