What Gamespot Users have to say about Star Ocean: The Second Story
- Rating:10
An amazing story that can be played over to have different effects and from different points of view.
So I've gotten through all of the first 3 Star Oceans now. This one reuses the same type of skill system as the first one and the third one also does however, I just have to say that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I ... Read Full Review

Just like the psone version, but much better and a nice make over.
This game is very good and has more replay value then Star Ocean First Departure, which is a good thing to say. The battle system is better as your comrades use skills more wisely, and even your magic user Cecline doesn'... Read Full Review

really fun!
I quite enjoyed the first Star Ocean remake for PSP. First Departure featured bright, colorful, well-animated new visuals, terrific quality cut-scenes, tons of solid voice-acting, and an overall wonderful old-skool JRPG ... Read Full Review

Quite possibly one of the best RPGs of all time. A new experience with each playthrough makes this game a champion.
Warning: There will be spoilers to follow, so read at your own risk. However, beyond the story, I will be light on them. While wandering the realms of space in the battleship Calnus, Ronyx J. Kenny (from Star Ocea... Read Full Review

Considering the deep gameplay, flashiness and knickknacks that modern RPGs have to offer, Star Ocean: Second Evolution holds up quite nicely. Not only does it have an engaging story, moving music and pretty, old-school g... Read Full Review

A decent port from the playstation version. Was it worth $40?
Ah, Star Ocean. A beloved RPG series loved by many, and hated by many. Me? I'd say I'm in between. Star Ocean: Second evolution is an enhanced port from the playstation version, with various additions. Such include anime... Read Full Review

What happened here?
I was always a fan of the original SO2. That doesn't make me bias towards the original, or what you would probably label as a purist, but there were things that I expected from this version. I'll skip on the reviewing o... Read Full Review

Not a bad re-make of Star Ocean: Second Story.
I just beat this game a few hours ago, and I thought that this was very good. Not a bad re-make of Star Ocean: Second Story. The story in this game takes place 20 years after the events of Star Ocean: First Departure. Yo... Read Full Review
