Star Ocean: The Last Hope is at last finding its way to the PlayStation 3. Originally released as an Xbox 360 exclusive, this Japanese role-playing game from tri-Ace will be releasing worldwide on February 9, 2010 for Sony's Machine, nearly a year after the Xbox 360 version. Not much is changing about the game, though some new language audio tracks are being included to take advantage of the extra disc space blu-ray offers.

They're wrong. Though it can be argued that the genre's biggest franchises (Final Fantasy) has lost its way, a little digging beneath the surface reveals a wealth of great games that are equal to, if not better, than the best JRPGs from years past."
My favourite would be Lost Odyssey...it was the real Final Fantasy 13 game for me. Good characters, good voice acting, the music was amazing, the theme music was better, the battle system was good (can't beat turn based). I could go on...
Plus Jansen was hilarious...one of the best characters in a JRPG for me
No mention of Resonance of Fate is a fail. That game can easily go toe-to-toe with any of the games on that list. It had the combat that Final Fantasy 13 SHOULD have gotten.
Garces f, imo, should have made that list. Liked Ni no Kuni, Star Ocean and Nier. Really wished Last Odyssey came to the ps3.
PS3 Attitude: "From tiny outfits that provide no more protection than dental floss, to massive armour that even Chuck Norris would struggle to walk in, it has to be said that costumes in videogames often look pretty ridiculous. We literally could have picked a selection of games at random for this list and they’d still have been relevant, but these are the five characters we chose in the end (after we picked them at random)."
Hey,after suffering through all those "Kay's" I earned the right to see Myuria's skin!
An online retailer is currently offering substantial discounts for several high-defitnion role-playing games on the PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.
Eternal Sonata (PS3) - $19.15
Eternal Sonata (Xbox 360) - $19.90
Record of Agarest War (Xbox 360) - $18.15
Star Ocean: The Last Hope International (PS3) $24.48
That's not really "substantial" as far as discounts go, especially with how old those games are.
Am definitely going to be picking this up!
So this SE game will take advantage of the PS3. I guess this superior version isn't labeled "unfair" since the 360 got this game months ago. So why is Square still ruining the PS3 version of FFXIII again?
theyll get more extras on the game, just like every game does when it comes to ps3,
so yeah, in other words, xbox had a beta.
Must buy for me. :)
at the end it will look worse on the pos3.. same like FF13 :)
