I got it. It's great to play on a larger screen than the PSP. I hope they bring the whole PSP collection to Steam.

Ys is currently the top selling game on Steam. Let's see how long it can hold that rank.

How do the PSP releases differ from the original PC ones? And XSEED has no plans for a physical release on this, right?

Well i hope someone can correct me on this one but i don't think there are any changes done to this release other than graphical enhancements. I doubt for a physical release because one technically exist.

I haven't heard of any major changes. Apparently PSP version has Very Hard mode unlocked from the get go, while the PC one only goes up to Normal at first.

I started on normal difficulty and damn this game is hard. I'm finding that I have to grind because I just don't have the skill to dodge all attacks and still get my hits in. The combat has a great feel to it though. It's faced paced, but you have to position yourself well and combine jumps and ground based attacks or else you get hit. There's also a real danger in large groups of enemies, but they're also easier to kill if you can keep them all within the range of your blade.

Ys Origins was released today. Did anybody pick it up?

I want to, but I've spent a lot on games this month, so I'm holding back until a later date.
