What a great reason to celebrate :)
Today on GameFAQs the poll of the day asks its users if they have ever played the original Phantasy Star.

Happy anniversary, everyone! I hope you enjoy my little anniversary present, :lol:

Who could have imagined, all those years ago, that Phantasy Star would still be enjoyed and remembered after all this time. It's really remarkable, especially with new folks till finding and experiencing the series. Everyone should try to play the game for a little bit today, don't you think?

Yes !
About Gamefaqs, the question is as follows :
"25 years later, have you ever played the original Phantasy Star?" : more than half of the voters have... voted (^^) "never played a single Phantasy Star game" : very sad but that's not a serie as renown as many others RPG series, unfortunately...

Something I put together a little while ago, but now seems about the right time to put it up:

Happy birthday to Phantasy Star! And congrats to Thoul on the new site design. Myau, I saw the same thing on the Gamefaqs poll. I was very sad.

SS : "Hope everyone has a wonderful Phantasy Star fun filled day today!!"
Unfortunately, I didn't have really time to fill my day with phantasy Star :( But I've seen many sites on the serie and look at some videos !
Especially the link for the video posted by R-90-2 with all the introductions : Good one !

Bragatyr : I was sad too but that's not very surprising...hélas ... :(

It's a shame that so many people at GameFAQs have missed out on the series entirely. Well, maybe that poll will inspire some of them to check out the games. :)

That's a great little retrospective, R-90-2. Thanks for sharing that with us. :)
