![]() I was a little wary of playing a Phantasy Star Online/Universe-type game on the Nintendo DS, given what little the system could really handle, considering its graphics and content capacity, but I was surprised by how much I ended up enjoying the game. I had been wanting to play this game since mid-2009, back when I heard of its upcoming US release.

There are more than 350 unique weapons available, and combat is handled in a three-beat system, whereby gamers can unleash as many as three normal or heavy attacks consecutively. Gamers take on the role of one of these explorers, choosing from the blade-wielding Hunter race, the gun-toting Ranger race, or the spell-casting Forces, and then selecting from 14 different class variations.Players can also create unique robot "Mags" to provide stat boosts, heal injuries, or serve as an extra attacker, and feeding each Mag surplus items helps them level up in four key areas. And while the apocalyptic nature of the "Great Blank" led to a more peaceful society, a select group of adventurous citizens choose to explore the expansive wilderness areas in order to hunt monsters that threaten the safety of city life. The survivors managed to pick up the tattered pieces of once great civilizations and build thriving, albeit isolated, cities.
