The new Star Ocean: The Last Hope trailer is full of that oh so special JRPG flavor. And I heart it very much for that.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again- they just don’t make JRPGs like they used to, but Star Ocean for the XBox 360 looks to be all kinds of epic, with some sweet graphics, and ridiculously fun looking battles. Plus, there are spaceships. Sign me up!
Looks awesome… but I jus can’t get the Japanese style characters. They all look and sound the same.
Hmm, I’m a little split about this one. I’m about 50/50 on JRPGs in general, and that scale is heavily weighted in favor of Final Fantasy titles, but the combat system here does look potentially great, and it sure is pretty. I’m just hoping the characters aren’t quite as annoying as they seem in the trailer.
My brother is a fairly big Star Ocean fan. At least a Till the End of the Time fan. I think he’d like this, but I rather go for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 or something.
I lol’d at the “Edge Maverick” character’s name. Other than that, looks to be a decent game. Trailers can be misleading though.
