Heya everyone just been lookin for some decent forums that have some good gaming conversations and thought id give gamespot forums a try :) i been around IGN a long time and just a little tired of how most people are there, so time for a change.

With that said, dying for SO4 and cant wait til this week, who else is just totally stoked for it to finally get here?

Id also like to add that i dont agree/like reviewers that much, so please dont be to harsh when i totally disagree with just about every review out there :p

I also loved SO3 which i know so many people hated for the ending, but i actually loved that twist being i hadnt really seen that done before in a game. And SO4 cant get here quick enough, i tell ya though from checkin the achievement list, looks like these are gonna be some toughies!

I hate it when people use acronyms and assume everyone knows what they're talking about. I have no idea what SO4 is either.

I almost always disagree with reviews too, most of the time they make petty complaints that don't apply to a huge majority of gamers out there. I'm looking forward to Star Ocean 4 as well, probably more so than Resident Evil 5.

Hey guys, thanks for the welcome ;) and yea i just assumed everyone was on board with what SO4 was being its out this week lol but either way cant wait for it!

As for my join date, yea 06 i think but it was only to post a question somewhere i think, i honestly didnt even remember if i posted here or not, i got about 30,000 posts at IGN and just need a new bunch to hang with and some new voices really :)

As for the reviews issue above, yea what i find with most reviews is just that they base their decisions off like one or two negatives and thats it, and then like wildfire it spreads and people will claim so and so game sucks because its only got a 6.5 or 7, when to me its all just so subjective...someones 9.0 rated game may be crappy to me and their 6.0 rated game may be fun to me, so i just dont even bother with reviews.

Ive also found that most reviews just put games on scales as a whole, so if Mr.FPSer fan that loves his shooters gets his hands on an rpg, chances are hes not going to be excited for it...so 9 times out of 10 i think you just get reviews based off their general bias to other genres.

But anyways, lookin forward to some good conversations!

The Star Ocean series is like the Final Fantasy franchise. Each new game features a different group of people, almost entirely unrelated to the last game or any others before it.

Really?? Hm, interesting. I enjoy a great debate as long as people just refrain from name calling and what not, and with some of my obscure opinions debates come often lol but its all in good fun, i just hope mods dont take it as being argumentative or what not like on other sites, its just odd.

Just if your like a 'fanboy', no i didn't call him one mod!, then just don't go to a different system fourm or system wars, system wars is like what its called. Its a war there. Moderations left and right! I always get modded there and in the Wii fourms lol, i just don't like it and i have to speak my mind there! Hope it helped!

The great thing about games like SO also is that there is so much content. Nothing against other genres, but man a jrpg like Star Ocean seriously packs a punch with content, tons of quests, items to build, tons to explore, massive dungeons, great music and story...its just always got the complete package.

In my eyes, The Last Hope will be the first top class current gen jrpgs. All the other jrpgs so far were just meh, to me.

Yea its gonna be a great game, but i got to disagree with ya bro about top class jrpgs, Lost Odyssey imho is one amazing game. I sunk in 115 hours on that game and man what a ride, that 1100/1100 was so worth it. Tales of Vesperia is also incredible, im working on the 1000/1000 for it and its just an amazing game all around. Last Remnant i really find to be underrated as well, tons of content, tons of rare spawns, tons of items to build, great characters.. pretty good jrpg. Infinite Undiscovery, good but not amazing but still had alot of sweet things about it. And Blue Dragon other than the art style of the characters, i think was solid...loved the battle system the music was incredible thanks to Uematsu, and just the game as a whole was pretty good i thought. But thats my take of the jrpgs so far ;)

Ha how could i forget Eternal Sonata, yea that game had sheer class to it, absolutely amazing looking too. Speaking of ES, i still plan to make a 2nd run to get the achievements, that was the biggest down though was that 50 hours of playing net me like 120 achievements, its like wtf lol but yea, amazing game.

I had SO3 last gen and it was a little generic but not horrible, I never beat it of course. This new one has some impressive graphics and looks like it could be a better outing though, so I think I'll pick it up one of these weeks.

Welcome to Gamespot! I'm also hyped for SO4, and we'll definitely get it on tuesday! Also, don't let yourself get too much into the reviews of others; what really matters for you is YOUR view on the game - and that can only be accomplished if you actually play the game, and not someone else.

Yes you will. SO4 is a prequal to the other Star Ocean games. So technically its the first one. It looks pretty solid.
