Star Ocean - Who's Buying?!

[QUOTE="Rakuho"]

what improvements did they make? i know they added in japanese voiceovers to hopefully dull the shrill pain, but what else?LoG-Sacrament

I believe you'll also be able to alternate between CGand anime character portraits and menu design... but if you're asking if the international version will include things like new characters/quests, then the answer is... maybe, but not likely. Some say there "might" be an extra playable character (not a newly introduced one, but who was previously an NPC)... at any rate take it with a grain of salt... i sure would.

But really though, the Japanese language option is the best aspect about the Int. version; new characters or not.

Those are the changes that the PS3 has and 360 version dosent:

• Improved Gameplay
• Slightly Improved graphics
• A whole new layout for the menu, setup and battle system
• The ability to switch from Anime and CGI
• Daul Audio Japanese and English
• 6 diffrent languages
• 4 New characters
• Some kind of connection between SO4 ps3 and SO1/SO2 PSP
• co-op
• 1 Disk

[QUOTE="Texas2089"] I don't remember hearing anything about new characters so if you're expecting any you'll most likely be disappointed. If there were any new characters I can almost guarantee there would have been SOMETHING to show them off. Think of the other JRPGs that have been ported to PS3. Eternal Sonata and Tales of Vesperia. Both feature new characters and both times they had shown the characters before the game launched. With only 5 days to go its highly unlikely there will be anything new outside of maybe one final trailer.Texas2089

Yup im now pretty sure it does have new characters ( site ) inow remember that this new newsletter annouced extra characters but your right tho i know that for ToV and ES they showed the new characters.. who news maybe Square want us to find out when the game is out

since i havent played the game at all yet it really wouldnt matter to me if it had new character or the same characters.. i been waiting for this for so long and its finally here! :P.

so they upgraded the graphics in this port? not enough for me. I refuse to pay $60 for XBROKE dvd game ports to PS3. The only other games i did buy just to have something to play, that were ports are RE5 and DMC4... both which i realized aren't worth $60. So now any games that are ports i'll wait until they hit the $30 or less price to buy.

I'll only pay $60 for PS3 target platform games.

I'm so getting this game. I already have it paid off so I'll be picking up my copy next week.

Depending on the user reviews Ill most likely get it.

If you're asking whether to get Star Ocean or FF13 I'd pick FF13 100 times out of 100 times over SO4.

Star Ocean 4 is a good game, but FF13 takes precedence over everything right now. If you can get both do it though. Like I said it's a good game, but it suffers from a mediocre plot and mediocre characters. Great battle system though.

Whats Star Ocean?

i

just being thursty by jrpg on ps3

I played it on 360. It was aweful. A Story-driven game should have at least a "good" story. But what you get in SO4 is just terrible. And Character Models look creepy.. those faces, they can't express any emotions. I did not feel the characters at all.. maybe I'm still used to VC's godlike Characters.
