Rare PS books in PDF!

Oh, God, I completely forgot about posting it here, I'm sorry!

I've bought all Phantasy Star Futabasha books and the "World of Phantasy Star" book and made nice PDFs out of them!



I've blogged about it here:

There are also imagepacks available, and in case anybody wants to use them on a website, feel free to do it, but credit Orakio Rob here, ok? You may find all relevant files here:

As soon as they arrive I'll scan them all and make the PDFs available. Hope you like it!

Holy crap, I've always wanted PS swag like this! Thanks so much for sharing! :downloads all:

Oooh, that's nice! Are you able to read those?

No

But I have a japanese friend, and we're planning on translating some of this stuff into Portuguese (my native language, I'm from Brazil).

This is awesome. Good job I can't wait to check some of this stuff out

I know just how boring it is to scan something this large - thank you for taking the time to do so and sharing with the community!

I'm glad I can do it! I've always wanted to take a look at these books, so now that I have them I'm more than happy to share with you all.

Look, the PS1 guide has arrived!

The SPEC issues haven't left Japan yet, a friend of mine will send them to me soon.

Oh my god... the SPEC issues! Been waiting years to see what was inside those. (Do you know if these issues contain the Lutz sidestory, too? Or just Outside Saga?)

Which reminds me- would you mind if I used your Compendium scans for a scanlation project? I'd started scanlating it for myself a while ago when I had a bunch of free time, but I figured since I started anyways, other fans might enjoy it too, sooo...

These are issues 7, 7.5 and 8. The Lutz side story starts in issue 5, but it seems like it ends in issue 7.

The Outside Saga stretches across many issues of SPEC. These issues contain parts 3 and 4 (the last one to be published, but the story was meant to continue). There are also two chapters of "Third", a story by Yoshibon with a character named Nei Third. Now I must hunt for the missing issues...

That would be great, feel free to use them! Just add an "Orakio Rob was a good soul" stuff on your site, ok?

Wow, that all looks very interesting. I wish I could read those books. You have a great find there. Congrats.
