Sounds fun, but also like it'll make some of the boss battles ridiculously micro-heavy if you play it on the harder difficulties like 4d in SO3You have access to a jump move. The implementation appears to be a bit counter-intuitive at first. To Jump, you first press and hold down the jump button. Your character assumes a jump position and locks himself into place. You can then push the left analogue stick in the direction that you'd like your character to perform the jump.
New to the game is a system called "sight in/sight out." As part of this system, you can use jumps and side steps to get into and out of the enemy's field of vision. The transition between in and out states is accompanied by some special visual effects, including slow motion.
the more i see of SO4 the more and more i want it to release faster lol. If it's anything as good as SO3 was it's gonna own ^^. least we got the psp remakes of SO1 and 2 to look forward too atm.
There's a bunch of new direct feed shots here

Im in love.
I don't usually care about graphics, but goddamn those are nice (but lol @ texture stretching at the end of the chair, seams ftl). I will love this game to pieces if the battle system is as good/better than SO3. I have faith it will be. I hope the story is good, but frankly, I wouldn't care even if it wasn't.
I already posted those on the other topic :<
Well I didnt feel like bumping the old thread that was in the RPG section so i amde one in general here since people see it right away when they click on game sub forum.
Holy hell at those graphics. The battle graphics look fantastic.
Slowly chugging my way through Star Ocean 3, can't wait for 4.
3 was great xavier ^^. you'll probably have a 100+ hr game file by the time you finish the main story (disk 2 was totally wtf on its plot twists o.O). still need to finish 2 myself. gonna probably wait to do that till the psp remake comes out in january although i have the ps1 version still.
anyone know if SE is actually doing simultaneous worldwide release on SO4? pretty sure they are supposed to be
Thats their plan as Im aware of, it'll come out on 360 first and PS3 later down the road.
The graphic are beautiful...I will have to buy an xbox for this one I guess. >_>
Character design doesn't impress me tho..most of them look kinda generic. It's nothing awful, but I hope they will be more interesting than their look.
Character design isn't impressive so far, but very well executed. Looks like people you would expect to be in a JRPG (little mage girl, protagonist with a sword etc). I don't think SO has ever had great character design, but I think the most standout was probably SO2.
SO needs more weird races and shit. I hope the rest of the characters are more interesting, but as long as they don't annoy the shit outta me I think it'll be fine. I pray they make a true PS3/360 VP3 after this...
They should bring back Indalecio Limiter Off as a bonus boss battle. Would love to see atleast one of the Ten Wise Men in these graphics.
Well technically SO3 already has fox-, cat-, dolphin-, bunny-, monkey- (sort of) and three eyed people, they just got hardly any screen time at all except for a couple player characters in each game that all played just like the humans anyway. Star Ocean is a good example of how a gigantic and semi-detailed universe can be rendered largely irrelevant. Does anyone else who read about it even remember how creation energy works?
