Square Enix New and Upcoming North American Releases (January 2008)???

No Way5570d ago

I wonder if Star Ocean: The Last Hope will be any good. Might consider picking it up..

PixlSheX5570d ago

I hope so. It has been a long time since i played a good rpg.

MisterNiwa5570d ago

Get yourself a goddamn NDS or PSP!

lord_of_balrogs5570d ago

I'm still unsure about this game. I'll have to watch some of the gameplay videos first before I decide considering there's no demo.

lordgodalming5570d ago (Edited 5570d ago )

For some reason, the Japanese characters in the header of the finalfantasyseries.net website are displayed backwards. If you think I'm crazy, check out the word "Cocoon" right above the words "Final Fantasy." It should be spelled "コクーン." wtf

Marceles5570d ago

lol yeah that image of Lightning is from a japanese article, it just looks like the picture was mirrored the other way including the text of the article

I've got star ocean for 360 pre ordered on lovefilm (as in, they'll send it me for rental when it comes out)

I don't want to buy it because if they ever do bother with a PS3 port then, with sonys policy of "It must have some sort of improvements" which usually is extra content then i know i'd want to buy that one instead.

laaakokaracha5570d ago

sure thing

there is already a lot of gameplay out and it looks very good in my eyes.

if ur fan of SO than it is a must

PlayStation Plus is a secret paradise for RPG fans

From games that digitaltrends DeAngelo Epps has always wanted to play but missed out on, like Odin Sphere, to newer titles that he'd love to re-experience like Yakuza: Like a Dragon, there was enough there to justify diving back in. And those titles aren’t even a small percent of what’s available here. Vanillaware titles, Square Enix games, NIS franchises he’d never even heard of — there’s a whole lot to dig into.

PSPlus is Amazing for RPGs and NIS America, Square Enix and Vanillaware games are perfect for PSPortal.

LG_Fox_Brazil150d ago

Not really a 'secret' but a paradise indeed, I just finished Soul Hackers 2, pretty good, and started Labyrinth of Galleria and I am having a blast. Tons of great RPGs in the PS4/PS5 family

Mr_cheese150d ago

Secret is the click buzzword. Can't have a title without bait these days.

anast150d ago

secret, shadow, hidden

Perfect for playing on the Portal, since rpgs can be such timesinks. For those people who can't stay glued to the TV, it's good to give some freedom around the house, out on the porch or whatever. I haven't picked up a Portal yet, bc of life priorities, but I definitely anticipate picking one up asap and playing more rpgs!

ziggyzinfirion150d ago

I'm currently playing Final Fantasy VII:Remake for the first time on PS5 and I am freaking blown away by this game so far. I don't know why I waited this long or due to my huge backlog but had to be honest, this game exceeded my expectations.

OtterX150d ago

Yea, story pacing aside, the combat system is pretty killer, especially if you slow it down to play it more like a tactical turned based jrpg!

I actually wish FF16 had gone this route, instead of the DMC route. The FF7:R system gave enough action for those who wanted to play that way, while still appeasing us old school turn based jrpg fans.

Glad you're enjoying!

crazyCoconuts150d ago

Some of the best in game HDR I've ever seen in that game. I liked it a lot too. My first final fantasy game believe it or not
