So while I played Phantasy Star Online a fair bit on the Gamecube and a bit of Blue Bullet when it came out I'm actually fairly unfamiliar with the series. I played a little of Phantasy Star Universe and the original game but never got super far in either. Well since I've been really enjoying PSO I guess I want to try playing the other games so what's your favorite Phantasy Star game/the best place to start.

Also I notice that the first two games both have remakes on PS2 that've been patched into English. Those any good? Like would it be better to play those over the originals?
 
Phantasy Star 4 is best of classics and is fully enjoyable w/o any add ons. It has a few good rom hacks out there as well. All of them are playable actually but all of them have some nice re-translation stuff if you want.

Use this for Phantasy Star 1 if you don't want an Engrish translation to deal with:

Phantasy Star 2's English fix:

Phantasy Star 3 English fix:

Phantasy Star 4 has a re-translation and so on as well...in case you want it. This is trying to give a "generations feel" for the PS2 game that was canned.

Rebalance of Phantasy Star 2 that I've heard good things about and also a re-translation:
https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/1404/
PS2 is playable without this but I've heard good things about this hack so I figured I'd show it.
 
I never actually played any of the main games outside of PSO.
Maybe I should.

Well damn, these all look pretty good. I’ll check them out. Thanks [:
 
Did not know of the fixes! Thanks Rune! Looking forward to replaying 4 and 2 (rebalanced) again!
 
Sadly haven't had any luck with the PS2 rebalance hack. Seems it was coded with a specific PS2 rom in mind and the only site that had it was Emuparadise. -.-
 
Oh don’t worry. Someone linked me to a Chrome extension that lets you download roms from Emuparadise.
