First off I would like to say that Star Ocean can become highly addictive.During the first 15 minutes of the game I thought I just blew 50 bucks.But later on I found myself staying awake all night long playing it!The Storyline of the game is straight foward,but towards the end of the game it turns into something completley different. Gameplay:The gameplay is pretty accessible.And its fairly easy to adapt to after a couple of hours.Like in all RPG's when you level up you gain new abilities.You can custimize them to your liking.Although during gameplay you may find your game freezing by running into a monster.And finding an annoying dialogue box saying"loading Data from disc" So you may wan't to save your game often. Sound:Not much to say about the sound in the game.You will most likely find yourself annoyed listening to the same battle theme over and over again when in battle.But in boss battles their is a bit of variety.And Sometimes you will be listening to Rock Music.And the levels music are pretty good as well,but you won't find yourself humming them. Graphics:Great! The Game Has lots of pretty and vivid colors.But the Characters seem to have a "Anime/Manga" look to them.(some of them at least)There aren't many CG movies in the game.They look fine,but pale in comparison to Final Fantasy.When you use Special Attacks and Symbology"magic"sometimes the attacks look a bit 3D and bright. Well anyway if your looking for a good RPG with a long interesting story and great gameplay,Give "Star Ocean till the End of Time" a shot.
