Скачать или смотреть Electronic Gaming Monthly's Top 10 Phantasy Star Games

Nintendo Entertainment System owners may have had Final Fantasy, but if you were a Sega fan, then you had access to a completely different kind of phantasy. I’m of course talking about the curiously spelled Phantasy Star franchise, which started on the Sega Master System in 1987 and is still going today, with the latest installment being Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis. With all this talk about Final Fantasy XVI, I wondered how Phantasy Star compared. More specifically, what did Electronic Gaming Monthly say about this long-running series?

In case you’re wondering, EGM reviewed a total of ten games in the Phantasy Star franchise. That includes three of the main installments, one compilation and six Phantasy Star Online titles. They hit pretty much everything except for the 8-bit original, which was released two years before the magazine started up. What we’re going to do today is count down the best and worst Phantasy Star games using Electronic Gaming Monthly’s own words and scores. There’s no editorializing here, we’re going to focus on what the critics said back when these games first came out. So, go and grab an energy sword and your favorite mag, because this is another futuristic episode of EGM Ranks Phantasy Star.
