YAY!!!

wth is this ?? :?PurpleHaze89

For those not familiar with the series hees a video of Ys: The Oath in Felghana, a remake of Ys III.

Ys The Oath in Felghana

Also worth mentioning is that Ys I&II was perhaps the most popular RPG on the TG-CD, which was ported to Virtual Console a few months ago, and a remake is came out for the DS last week. The series has been around for quite a while, going as far back as the Master System.MAILER_DAEMON

Indeed, its also 1 of the top 3 most popular RPG franchises in Japan.

Check out 1 and 2 for the DS ppl!

Looks great. It says an english patch will be available? Hmmm! I tend to hate playing these sorts of games on PC, but I just might try it.

I wish they'd port it to PSP.

Are you serious guys!?-Oath

First you admit that it isn't popular over here in the US then you question why no one knows what this is... You answered your own question earlier.

The first game that got a perfect 10 for EGM was Ys book I & II. Thanks for the info TC.

[QUOTE="tOtalPWNaAe"][QUOTE="PurpleHaze89"]wth is this ?? :?Sonic_on_crack

It was actually a very old series from the TurboGrafx16- CD days (1989-1992). Y's was also one of the 1st games on CDrom.

I love the series. Unfortunatelly Falcom doesn't release their games outside Japan, we have to wait many years for fan translations. Ys VII will be PC exclusive like Ys: Oath in Felghana and Ys: Origin? I hope to see the graphics and gameplay going to another level of depthness and beauty :DRyuRanVII

Nope, 1 and 2 never came out on the PSP, just the DS, so far. Yes, APPARENTLY Chronicle will be a PSP prt of 1 and 2 for the PSP.

7 will most likely start out as a PC exclusive.

Oh ok cause I thought I heard something about a psp version of 1 and 2 years ago. Guess I was wrong.

In the US, no. Not all the games have been localized and TBH we got the inferior versions of each, but Japan knows better, Its one of the top 3 franchises there.

No worries ;)

Are the other titles better than the PSP and DS ports?jasonharris48

Absolutely. The PC version of Ark of Napishtim (PSP game) is vastly superior to the PSP game, its the definitive version. Better graphics, smooth translation, extras and such. A translation patch is available.

Ys I and II COMPLETE is also superior to Legacy of Ys (DS game), its sprite quality and translation are perfect.

Actually, if you interested in the series go here, Classic Gaming- Ys Series : http://hg101.classicgaming.gamespy.com/ys/ys.htm

It has breif summarys and pics of every Ys game, awesome site.

TC im guessing this is a game that you would be totally confused if you havent played every singel part right.finalfantasy94

Well thats to be seen, so far there is 0 info on this game but I would have to assume that the game continues from 6 so maybe...

Actualy, no. The story for the most part is self contained so only2 characters have connections to past games, its no big deal.
