Full tan and free cocktails, okay, but enough is enough. No need to get sick of it. That's why I took the time to make a little Gamersyde Diaries on The Bourne Conspiracy while at the Sierra Spring Break '08.

Hm, what to say? I'm very happy there's a new Star Ocean. But from these scans it's not possible to say anything 'bout the game. Wait and see.... =/

Why don't they announce the platform? I am also very excited about the game - I just want to know if I have to buy another console to play it...

Scans aren't really that good, and most of what is shown looks to be CGI, I guess its still early for them to show in game stuff.
E3 and TGS should be good this year :D

I think if it's not disclosed... it's Xbox 360 exclusive. Another Steal :)

Gamespot, IGN and 1up have it listed only under PS3. Are they just guessing or do they know something we don't?

Just PS3? aha... Well, that's just fine for me ^^ But I hope for 360-owners it's time exclusive... But I guess those pages just guess it's only PS3 ^^

They assume that it will be released on the PS3. They gamble on history repeating itself and their chances to win this bet are rather good thanks to the prejudice of the consumers.
Xbox 360 owner have to admit that, even though the Xbox 360 is the number two when it comes to the installed hardware of this generation consoles in the world, if you just look at Japan the sales look horrible.
The conclusion is that if a Japanese publisher wants to sell their game considerably in their country the only choice is to release it at least on PS3 or Wii as well and we know the Wii is too weak for an HD game.
Yet it is not confirmed to be on the PS3.
I personally don’t care at all, I have both!
It’s just that I hope it will be on 360 so everyone who is already promising the holy land of JRPGs for the PS3 is a bit fucked… but my chances are rather slim…

Anyway, I hope it to be multiplatform, it would be the best for this game. SO3 almost sold 1.5 millions worldwide, now it'd need both the consoles to barely reach that result.

Yes, I'm sure that a Japanese RPG series with a history of being PS exclusive will suddenly jump ship to a console known best for videogames aimed at people who wear baseball caps indoors.

And btw Vesperia did, I don't know why SO4 couldn't. Money is the key which unlocks all doors, and Bill has plenty of money.
Anyway, my doubt is about the multiplatform thingy. Namco is known for supporting multiplatform, yet tri-Ace never did it before. Mhh....

And we're still talking about multiplatform, as in "no matter how bad a game sells on x-console, we'll recover the cost thanks to x-console". SO4 imo won't be a multiplatform game, and that changes completely your point. tri-Ace will have to ponder very well its choice, or SO4 will probably be as good as doomed.

The third was good, too. Not as good as the 2nd, but good enough.
I think this one will be goo, too. But let's wait and see...

Going by Tri-Ace's usual pattern would they really split up 2 of the games they do this gen on separate platforms? I guess we'll see, but I suspect Star Ocean 4 is a 360 exclusive.

I know this is the way Star Ocean has pretty much always been, but does it bother anyone else that this is a science fiction game, and the male and female characters on the first page are still armed with a sword and bow? Mix it up a little! You could give the girl a laser pistol and still have it function similarly to a bow in combat. I just don't want to spend half my time storming medieval castles again.
