Is said to play the same.

http://kotaku.com/5064202/star-ocean-4-looks-amazing-playsthe-same

I was a little dissapointed, but Im still excited on the title. Best RPG to grace the 360 console next year I believe.

Also, good to note. It brought out a great turnout. Could be the breakout the 360 was looking for? Will it finally establish the 360 in Japan as a contender and they will most likely try other 360 games? Only time will tell. What do you think?

( The last chapter in the Star Ocean series: Star Ocean: The Last Hope ) (360 exclusive)

P.S. It had around 25 - 30 booths. Microsoft doing it big.

Cause it plays like Star Ocean Till the End of time a little more then I thought, but Im still excited about the cooking system returning along with the customizations:P

Im still buying it from day one though.

While the combat and general gameplay might be the same, the addition of a Ship being a hub where you can go to different planets, is a nice enough change, and what I was expecting from Star Ocean from the beggining, it being a Sci-Fi RPG and all, I still have good hopes for it, the first one might not be overly amazing, but it was good considering its time, Star Ocean 2 was one of my favorite PS1 RPGs, and I really liked SO3 as well, even with all the hate it recieved, so I'm really looking forward to this.

I didn't say I didn't like it. Just a little dissapointed

Tales of Vesperia was a letdown to me, but I wasn't that big of a Tales fan to begin with. The only one I liked was Tales of Eternia (Tales of Destiny 2 in the US) and it will continue to be so.

Yeah, it looks pretty, but I really don't want it to be Star Ocean: Till The End of Time with a new coat of paint.

Something a little more I suppose, but I know........you can't always please everyone.

Star Ocean 3 killed the series for me, unfortunately. I had 125+ on Second Story and even beat a translated ROM of the original SNES version but I just could not play 3, it was so incredibly bland.

Well you'll love this one since it has nothing to do with Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (Story-wise)

The challenges in the Star Ocean series were always intense though. Thats why I love the series also. I just hope they add different diffculites.

I ruined the difficulty in the third one, where I stuck the +800 attack ori stones 7-8 times in everyones weapon, last boss went down in like half a minute...

I hope they get rid of that no damage thing. Which one did you do? (4D mode??)

Due to the cutscenes being badly impletmented to progress the story I just kept fighting and fighting until I leveled up so high that every boss for the first half of the game didn't even scratch me. I got so many battle trophies that way
