Phantasy Star Portable 2: Infinity Blast and PSP2 Data Transfer

Posted by Ricardo

Hi still on vacation, here’s a small post about Infinity Blast. If you recall the scan post, there was a section regarding Infinity Blast where it has 4 effects based on your battle type.

Infinity Blast

03 l 300x170

Shougai PSO has added some information within this month’s Gemaga Magazine. (Scan Pending). Infinity Blasts are available at Level 10. They are usable only for a limited time, however you can extend it by performing a “Chain Combo.” This is essentially attacking an enemy continuously for as long as you can.

Based on your battle type (Hunter, Ranger, Force, or Vanguard) the type of attack can change. If you are a Hunter, your Infinity Blast will be that of holding a one handed sword and attacking at a close range. If you are a Ranger, your Infinity Blast will be that of a laser beam that shoots enemies.

 

PSP2 Contents

Sakai makes a post about the meaning of PSP2 Infinity. The name means that it will break the usual limits set in place within the series, so that you can continue to play this game endlessly. (You can see this system within Reincarnation, though it sounds like more features will be breaking other limits…)

All contents of Phantasy Star Portable 2 are within Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity. This includes Story, Mission, and Items, etc. This allows for all contents of PSP2 save data to carry over to PSP2 Infinity. This includes your character’s appearance, level, all your items in possession and shared storage, titles, any data you can think of carries over.  Infinity will of course include enough content that is equal to that of a new game.

All Download Item Data for Phantasy Star Portable 2, will carry over to Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity. You do not need to purchase the items again.

Save Data Transferring

psp2i import1 300x225

You can import various Phantasy Star games into Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity. Some of these methods work just like before, so refer to the original importing link at the sidebar.

  • PSP2i Demo to PSP2i Full: ALL DATA TRANSFERS
  • PSP2 Full to PSP2i (Demo or Full) ALL DATA TRANSFERS and you get 5 Fusion Codes
  • PSP1 to PSP2i (Demo or Full)  You get Exam Saber and 1 Visual Module.
  • PSU to PSP2i (Demo or Full) You get Exam Saber and 1 Visual Module.

Note: If you are transferring PSU or PSP1 to Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity, they work exactly the same way as it did when you transferred to PSP2. Please refer to this post concerning the original data that transfers over.

*Fusion Codes are used to synthesize weapons. When you synthesize the same mutual weapons, the attribute percentage improves.

ストーリー、ミッション、アイテムなど前作の要素はすべてはいっています
The Story, Missions, and Items (et cetera) from the previous game are all included.

So, “All data in PSP2 are in PSP2infinity”

I know I’m wondering how this is supposed to work when PSP2 nearly used up the UMD space but maybe it’s compressed or they took out dialogue and cutscenes to save space.

Maybe they’ll break the UMD storage limit too.

I dare to think that this expansion wont be released in UMD format because of storage limit, I think there is a high chance this will be digital DL only IDK what you think guys

My guess is that it’ll be DL like the DLC extra missions or something of the like. It’d be easier that way.

The only thing that has me worried is all the talk of DLC and the like. It doesn’t seem the current PSP2 is set up to accept any DLC from PSN since there is no ‘Import’ option and most of the PSN DLC is already in the US version of the game. While the DL mission can be used with the US version any ‘imported’ content cannot. Makes me think they may not have plans to do an English version of Infinity. There are things to unlock what’s already in the game but nothing in the form of adding to what’s there.

I wonder if PSP2i storyline is just going to be short or something. . .
Since they’re talking about being able to remake your character and have 2 games, practically, in one it will probably be like PSP to PSP2. New UMD and import character.
I don’t care either way really as long as they can make it happen I just hope they bring it to the States!

@Vertigo

The US/EU version of PSP2 does not have the PSN DLC items. People were mixing up items that were only available through DLC Missions with PSN DLC, which are two different things.

PSP2i’s storyline is 50% longer than PSP2.

@Rottweiler
It will be UMD, they already have JPN price listings for UMD and DL versions of the game. Wouldn’t really surprise me if they were able to compress data or increase storage space on a UMD.

I don’t think the story takes up that much space, honestly. Cutscenes and audio, yes- but isn’t it usually just still images and text?

I hope that my level and items will not be gone when i import my save on PSP2i

when will PSP2i will release in America? is it the same as the JP (feb 24?) or you can have multi language game when you buy from JP?

1)The US version does not yet have a release date.
2)You cannot use a US save file on a JP game.
3)Though PSPs are multiregional, the games are still going to be in their native language. (i.e. a game made in japan will have little to no US text.)

PSP2i Demo to PSP2i ALL DATA TRANSFERS
PSP2 Full to PSP2i ALL DATA TRANSFERS and you get 5 Fusion Codes
PSP1 to PSP2i You get Exam Saber and 1 Visual Module.
PSU to PSP2i You get Exam Saber and 1 Visual Module.

when i try to import the game from psp1 and psp2 to psp2 infinity appear that my save data doesn’t exist
both are cleared, but i don’t know why i can’t import
i want the exam saber that’s the reason of my desperation
it doesn’t matter (for me) to pass all the contents i just want the exam saber

If there isnt a US release of this game, im gonna be ssooooo pissed at Sega. They might lose me as a customer…

Elijah, what Ruby Eclipse (the former community manager) said was that Sega has no plans to bring Infinity to the West.

this is considering that colonel is in the game -_- which would likely mean a huge thing with copyright… plus its already passed some months since infinity got released

What about the meseta I earned? Can it be imported as well. It says storage and shared storage though, so I was just wondering.
