IncGamers: Star Ocean: The Last Hope Review

4
IncGamers' Marcus Holland looks at the 360 exclusive JRPG.

"Although set in space, SO: TLH does not escape the trappings of other fantasy inspired JRPG's: The main character is a cute wide-eyed, young man on the brink of manhood, who has many tough choices to make before gaining hair on his chest. Check. Cute wide-eyed young girl who is the love interest of said boy, who is both shy and very wise. Check. Loads of chests (although set in space) containing treasure to find and open. Check. Your party member's turn green and emit bubbles when poisoned. Check. Well you get the picture, SO: TLH does not break the mould here and I found it all really comforting like a nice hug rather than an over familiar slap in the face."

I never got on with Star Ocean. The setting gives such fantastic possibilities, but never actually fulfils them. The eternal problem with space games, to some extent, but Star Ocean is just so bleedin' generic it makes it feel much worse.
