Moatoob GBR S3 and Fireworks for August 7th 2009

This update will include a mini event called Guardians Boost Road. Guardians Boost Road will run from August 7th to August 28th. Players will run a series of missions back to back to earn points based on the mission difficulty. Each time you complete a mission, a certain amount of points will be added  for that mission only.

As you play each mission, your lowest point score will determine the amount of drop rate boost given to that mission. I highly advise against playing one mission over and over. Playing missions evenly will be a more efficient way of boosting your drop rate.

Moatoob GBR Missions

  • Desert Terror C-S3
  • Desert Goliath C-S3
  • Stolen Weapon C-S3
  • Rogues' Shortcut C-S3

Note: Players without the expansion pack, Ambition of the Illuminus, can not participate in S3 ranked missions. However they are free to join C through S2 rank missions to participate in the event.

Some drops players will be hunting for during this event include; Lumira / HP Restore and Lumirus / Wall.

The Rest

Neudaiz Fireworks will run from August 7th to August 28th. It will also include the Fireworks room item.

Don't forget to pick up your Sonic Birthday gifts, they will be deleted from Common Box storage on October 1st.

Phantasy Star Portable 2? Opening video included in UMD

New Information on Phantasy Star Portable 2

Phantasy Star Portable 2?

It seems Phantasy Star Portable will be getting a sequel. Over at Sega Nerds and IGN there is a post which details some content included in a Phantasy Star Portable Greatest Hit bundle. This bundles includes a sneak peak of Phantasy Star Portable 2's opening movie.

As great as this sounds, what is going to happen to Phantasy Star Universe. There has not been any news of a Phantasy Star Universe sequel nor an expansion pack. Though you could call AOTI Supplemental update an "expansion," it leaves Playstation 2 players from experiencing the visuals of new weapons. Every new weapon that's released will only look generic on their end.
