Next up for me will be the Japanese version of Phantasy Star Zero for the Nintendo DS. I could not control myself and went ahead and imported the title from Japan. Oh, I'm sure it'll get a western release. It's just with Phantasy Star Portable not scheduled to hit the US until late March it makes me think that Phantasy Star Zero's release is more than just a bit further down the line. If it weren't for the thousands of hours I've spent with all the versions of Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Universe I doubt I'd be able to wander through the menus with any sort of enjoyment. My initial impression is that the game looks amazing for a 3D Nintendo DS title. I'm also initially impressed with how well it controls. And I'm initially absolutely delighted by how very Phantasy Star Online it all feels. As of this entry I've managed to clear the first area through the boss. It's good to note the boss was more involved than I was expecting. And that the first boss wasn't even the dragon featured in all the promo shots and movies like I was expecting. I don't know how far I'm going to be taking this game as I do want to save something for the US version where I'll be going online. Time will tell...
