It's so much cooler than Final fantasy. I get to fly to other planets in a rocket ship while battling alongside androids in a futuristic sci-fi world. Final fantasy just got knocked back a notch on my coolness chart. Well to be honest so far I've only played Phantasy star IV but that is enough to convince me of the uber awesomeness of the series. Is it true the Genesis cartridge used to cost upwards of 70 dollars!?

Damn! Really that much? Any particular reason for such a huge price?

Yeah, the same reason Dragon Quest VI (or maybe V) cost the equivalent of $150 back in the day.

I'm playing the first one and it's pretty fun. The "Robotcops" look like Storm Troopers.

When VI was first released, it cost 11,970 yen (about 100 dollars). It went on to sell 3.2 million copies in japan, becoming the best selling game of 1995 despite being released in December.

Leap before you think!

I can't stand the first two. Just way too primitive for me. I know that brings a charm for some, but I really can't play them.

The first Phantasy Star cost lots of money, barely less than the Master System Mark 2 itself! Thank goodness it only cost 500 points this time!

Edit: I also quite like Phantasy Star, even though I only have the original on the VC.

If only we got the PS2 remakes, I think they where Japan only.

@fudgenuts: Y11970 = $129.41

I have a few Phantasy Star games for PS2 on the Sega Genesis Collection, and they're ok. However, there's not much guidance throughout the game.
