Psychic Force is a video game released by the
company Taito. The releases (in order of release
and including where they were released) are:
Psychic Force (PSX - JP and domestic)
Psychic Force Puzzle Taisen (PSX - JP only)
Psychic Force 2012 (Dreamcast - JP and domestic)
Psychic Force 2 (PSX - JP only)
The game was decently popular in Japan, but
pretty much a flop in the US. (Not to mention
2012 was so badly translated - and they actually
subtitled it instead of paying for English voice
actors, which is alsmot unheard of with a video
game. 9_9;;)
I love the games, thus I love the anime and have
books full of cels from it. *^_^* However, I'll
also be the first to admit that it's actually
very poorly done. It relies too heavily on the
viewer having played the games (there are a lot
of things left unexplained in the anime which I
only know from having played the game) and they
make the mistake of trying to include *ALL* the
game characters (even the ones uninvolved in the
Burn/Keith section of the plot).
But obvioulsy, it has it's redeeming factors. ^_^;
One note about the cels from it. . . They seem to
have unusually fragile lines. A number of my cels
(perfect when I got them) now have signifigant
amounts of line fading - even ones that I got
within a month of the cels' release from the
studio and which have seen nothing but the inside
of my cel books. (Ie: No mistreatment.) I also
recently got a *LOT* of Psychic Force cels from
Anime World Star (almost 30 in the past couple
months alone) and *all* but one of them have had
some degree of line fading - a couple, severe
amounts. So you want to keep things like this in
mind when buying cels from the series.
Except for Psychic Force 2, I've seen cels from
all the PSX release games. The game cels seem to
fair a little bit better where line fading is
concerned.
