Made a new section outlining the characters in Phantasy Star. Hope this make it a bit better, hope to add some pictures when I figure out how to do it. I didn't know if the spoiler warning was really necessary, but Dark Force isn't even known about until the end of the game, so I figured better safe than sorry.

Thanks 4 including my section on the Algol Solar system... it does look better with the rest of the PS stuff.
I wrote a longer, more informative article about the Algol planetary system and made that the main article for the Fictional universe section. It still seems incomplete, though, so I would very much appreciate improvements (my work could always use a few). ;-) Celzrro 16:13, July 27, 2005 (UTC)
In an effort to standardize videogame articles, I propose moving information regarding the series as a whole to a new article entitled Phantasy Star (series), while leaving information specific to the first Phantasy Star game in this article. This would improve clarity in the article and help separate information on two very different things. Let me know what you all think about this. If there are no disagreements (or nobody else says anything), I'll carry out the standardization in a few days. Celzrro 21:50, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
I hear all of the Phantasy Star games were extremely expensive when they came out. Like 80 US dollars or something. Does anyone have a reliable source saying that it cost that?
Someone just changed what I believe originally stated "In the United States, Phantasy Star sold for $70.00. This made it the most expensive video game being sold at the time." to "In the United States, Phantasy Star sold for $1.00 This made it the least expensive video game being sold at the time." I'm not exactly sure if it did say $70 but obviously the $1 is false.
I've played through this game to nearly the end, and it does not seem to be 40 hours (maybe 20.) Could someone either get a good citation or remove it? Y0u | Y0ur talk page 06:34, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Isn't the Mega Drive version quite rare? Maybe it's worth a mention. Firthy 23:25, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Maybe it's also worth mention which plataforms PSI was already in: MasterSystem, MegaDrive, Sega Saturn, GameboyAdvence, Mobile Phones (you see, PSgeneration 1 was mentioned but the Deluxe Edtion wasn't), PlayStation 2 (twice). Newsblade ( talk) 22:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
As fas as I know, Myau is female. Either that or the many PS sites I visited (and even my PS cartridge) are lying to me.
I think not... 1 cover art, 1 gameplay screenshot, 1 portrait for each of the game's six key characters. Doesn't sound excessive to me at all. -- Stormwatch 23:11, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Any word on how much the Pokemon series ripped off the gameplay and graphics from this game? Anyone agree with me on this point, I like Pokemon, I just think it is based on Phantasy Star —Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.11.93.135 ( talk) 10:09, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Dark Falz and Dark Force are two different translations of the same boss title (or name) "Dark Phallus". Dark Phallus is the official Romanization for these kinds of bosses as we can see in the official artwork (see also the PS Collection Romanization) and even in "Phantasy Star: At the end of the Millenium" where, for instance, PS1 DF real name is shown to be "Pro Phallus". So I think instead of having “Dark Force (Dark Falz) we should have “Dark Phallus (Dark Falz)” or “Dark Falz (Dark Phallus)” in that topic title. 217.129.240.153 ( talk) 18:03, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
The "Dark Phallus" romanization was deleted but the truth is that
By the way: "Dark False" would be a much better romanization than "Dark Force" or "Dark Falz", because that was their intention.

The player starts out as Alis Landale (or Alisa Landeel in Japan)
アリサ (Arisa) was officially Romanized as Alicer (see: http://www.sabrecat.net/restoration/psc/ps1/ps1-6.jpg). However the latest official Romanization, shown by a presentation of the proto version of PS1 remake, says it is Arisa (see: http://www.rpgfan.com/pics/psg1/ss-010.jpg). That's the latest information regarded to her name, so we need a source about her name being "Alisa" in Japan. 84.90.24.156 ( talk) 13:23, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Much like I've done with Phantasy Star II and Phantasy Star III, I've gone through and made a number of changes, all to improve the quality of the article - both in terms of writing and organization. Below is a list of the changes I've made.
