Star Ocean The last Hope

[Julian]

The thing is, with how Star Ocean is set up, there is potential for really epic story lines. They just have shitty writers or something

SO4 was starting to go in the right direction, with having more than one crappy planet that you're stuck in, but they fucked it up. I don't blame them, though. If they could have made the game and not have to have worried about pleasing everyone with pretty graphics, they could have made multiple huge planets with lots to do and explore, and the game would have been really epic.

sigh, what can they do though?

[Elcura]

I get that feeling as well, that SO games could be potentially awesome with the amount of stories you could do, but I think it's just a JP mindset that prevents them from doing really great stories. Or maybe I've just played so many RPGs and whatnot that I'm just not impressed anymore.

[Kuya]

Is it so much to ask for more RPGs, that you know, are supposed to be story centered to... actually have a decent story? When the gameplay far exceeds the story in an RPG you just sort of have to wonder why they make it an RPG in the first place.

Latest Famitsu scan

Apparently coming to PS3, nothing official yet though

[Julian]

You gotta be fucking kidding me

oh well, at least that means that I don't have to bother with any more of that achievement crap

[Elcura]

YES GOD YES! BEST NEWS EVER!

Haha, my reason for owning a 360 again just disappeared.

[Kiarax]

Isn't that a really really old shop people used for trolling? Could be wrong, but it looks so familiar.

[Alina]

Started this over last night, going to get all of the ending, collection, IC, and sidequest achievements done in one go.

The only next gen "RPG" that I've enjoyed was Folklore. But I was also rather hit up for good games at the time so I don't know how others felt.

[Kiarax]

Folklore was fun, but the having to replay the game again as the other character to finish the game was stupid,. I never did finish it 'cause I got bored halfway through playing as Keats since it was just the same damn levels again with a ever so slightly different strategy on boss fights.

Still waiting for Vesperia and SO4 in Europe, gotta love living out here, Vesperia still isn't due out for a few months. I'll probably just wait and end up importing the American PS3 version. If the PS3 SO4 announcement is legit I'll probably just end up waiting for that too.

[gandorf]

So4 was never announced as an exclusive so the chances of it coming to the ps3 is good but it will probably take a few months like what they did with bioshock lost planet and eternal sonata.

[Xno Kappa]

Bioshock sucked! That's all I really have to add.

[Ollieyk]

I'm still really enjoying Eternal Sonata - Doing a good job of holding me out until another jRPG gets ported over to PS3, hoping SO4 is one of them

Looking around, it seems like that image is a fake >.>

Sites said the same shit about an enhanced port of ToV not coming to PS3 when it was revealed in a Famitsu mag, along with exclusive content

Then when it gets officially announced this happens.

[Julian]

It's not hard to shop stuff.

If Famitsu had really released that, there would be more speak of it going around, and, why is the "scan" cropped?

Also, that says Summer 2009 for the PS3 release. You really think it would come out that soon without any word about it? Sure it's possible that the scan is real, but 99% of signs point towards fake.

As we always say, poidh. Until it's proven true with real evidence, it's most likely fake.

[Kiarax]

I did say I'm pretty sure it's an old as fuck image people used for trolling. The fact that half the info boxes are seemingly empty seems like kind of a giveaway.

[sruon]

Necro but Star Ocean is -finally- coming out in europe (why yes, the regional lock was so useful) and it's up for pre-order for 17£ here (so much better than the 59€ I was looking at 3 days ago.)
