    Holy crudmuffins, for once Square Enix Japan didn't completely screw us over with their teaser sites. Anyone remember "Star Galaxy"? Yeah, ugh...

    But it's actually happening now. Their very Star Ocean-like teaser site turned out to be for Star Ocean 5. And it's being developed by tri-Ace, a studio many thought to be dead after they were bought by a mobile company. Coming to PS3 and PS4.

      Editing … I played one of the star ocean games on 360. It was pretty mediocre, so why should I be excited for this?

      Editing … The only one I really got into was Star Ocean 2. Couldn't get into the other ones, let's hope this one will change that.

      Editing … I guess it's good Tri-Ace will make at least one more big console game, even though Star Ocean 4 was terrible and I'd rather have Valkyrie Profile 3.

      Editing … The article has been updated with more information and screenshots, so check it out if you're interested, but in short: The game will now have seamless battles, they're trying to recapture the feel of SO3 (notice the logo is identical), it'll be set between SO2 and SO3, it's being developed for PS3 and ported to PS4, it's about 30% complete, and there could be more games if it does well. Oh, and Gries, you played SO4 which is generally considered to be the black sheep of the series. SO3 is the most beloved, and they claim to be making a concerted effort to capture the same feel. Also, I would've rather had Radiata Stories 2.

      Editing … I love all SO games, with 3 being my favorite, so I'm very excited for this one. I also love how they specifically made the logo look exactly like SO3. That's a good sign.

      Editing … I really should get back and finish SO4 at some point. I probably didn't appreciate it enough at the time as high-budget home console JRPGs were still plentiful, and SO4 is one of the games that fell by the wayside. I didn't particularly like the story or characters, and I didn't wanna play it unless I was willing to sit down for at least 10 hours so I wouldn't need to keep rebuilding the bonus board to get that 140% EXP boost or whatever. Of course, you'd probably have to sit down for 10 hours regardless, with its crazy massive overworld and dungeons. I really hope they add the ability to save anywhere in SO5.

      Editing … Say what you want about SO4's terrible graphics and mindnumbingly boring story, but it's battle system is excellent.
