I so much wants those game, First Departure for at least playing it and Second because it's one of my fav RPG.
I don't think linking the two game cover makes much sense, but that still looks fine.

Too bad 2nd comes out after Christmas...

Hey thanks ^^

Good, I need something to do with my PSP X_X

So, the game is released now since two weeks, I bought it and find it pretty good so far. I feared the plot would have an "unimportant" feeling considering SO2 and 3's plot, but not at all apparently.

So, anyone played it?

Oh do tell me more! I do want this game, but Im iffy... Hows the gameplay? Story? Etc. etc.

I'll buy this game when I get a PSP 3000. I was never really interested in the Star Ocean series, but I think I want to give it a try.

The gameplay is exactly the same one, with one or two minor tweak, of that one from Star Ocean : The Second Story. It's active time system, there's four character and you control one (though you can alternate who you control at will) while the three others are AI controlled. The game is in 2D but the background on the map and during battles are in 3D.

Battle are a bit more technical, especially if you don't know the system. You can make mere attack, "Killer Move" (uses MP) or Symbology/Heraldry (magic). Since I'm bad to describe, here's the test video :

YouTube - Star Ocean: The First Departure -PSP- EP.1 [2/3] ~USA~

The story happens 400 years in the futur, it revolves (at first) about a mysterious virus speaking on Planet Roak changing every people into stone. Two Earthling come on the planet to discover what happen, but are helpless to stop the virus. They suspect their enemy to have done this, but it's in fact a mysterious third party behind this. to find the cure to the virus, they try to search the original holder of the virus, who died 300 years ago, so they search a way to travel in time...
More would be heavy spoiler on the game's plot.
