Phantasy Star IV commerical

I love the Phantasy Star IV commerical that was aired in Japan. It really looks like a partial preview of a Phantasy Star IV movie, which I'd definitely love to see! The actor who plays Chaz really looks the part.^^

yeah it is pretty mad . I'm suprised that sega never licesened PSIV to be a real movie or an anime series I think they should have.

Oh, I agree, Lucas. It is really surprising, as so many games have been made into films, such as Mortal Kombat, for instance. Many westerners haven't even heard of Phantasy Star, which just baffles me. I thought I read somewhere that Sega made an announcement that PS IV was going to be remade, like PS I, but it never happened. A remake of the game would certainly draw new attention to the series and thus heighten its popularity.

That was interesting viewing

I always imagined Chaz Ashley as somewhat younger looking, though. He's only 16 at the time of PS4 and looks quite juvenile in the images from the game. In the trailer, the actor seems quite a bit older than that.

hopefully one day sega does consider doing something like that. Cause Phantasy is quite a popular rpg series

Haha, indeed - the actor portraying Chaz does look quite a bit older than sixteen. I also get a laugh out of Rika's flexing her metal-arm thingy. And, where is Rune in that commercial???

And Lucas, I agree... here's to hoping that Sega will.

I had seen this quite some time ago and I always asked that same question. It shows Chaz, Wren, and Rika, who are all part of the "main" four, but not Rune, who's the last of the "main four". It does make one wonder.

[face=Times New Roman]Maybe the casting director couldn't find an actor with his looks who was prepared to dye his hair light blue... [/face]

But wasn't Rune more of a leader figure/guardian to Rika and Chaz? Granted, Wren was Rika's teacher along with Seed, but Rune just seems to be more of an important character in the game.

Either Sega didn't have enough money to pay for another actor to be in the commerical, or, as Srijita says, they couldn't find an actor tall and smexy enough to sport Rune's fabulous blue hair.^^

Maybe they though Rune would be too much of a spoiler. Without knowing his name, if you'd played either of the first two games and saw a blue haired guy in a white cape? Most people would be guessing he was Lutz right away.

Out of all the commercials, that one's my favorite. It's cool to see someone that actually looks like the characters. And to see the huge claw from the Japan box art, too.
