PSP:Phantasy Star Portable
From PSU Cyril Wiki
Phantasy Star Portable is the third iteration of SonicTeam's Phantasy Star Universe series. The game is exclusive to the Sony PSP and is scheduled to be released in Japan at some point in 2008. While Portable offers no online capabilities and thus is not connected with the PC, PS2 or Xbox 360 servers, four-player multi-player is available via ad hoc. In addition, there is also a single-player story mode where players accompany Vivienne, a new CAST prototype from GRM, to investigate recent terrorist activities across Gurhal.
