Star Ocean The Last Hope - PAL Collectors Edition
Pure Poison 1 | 2:47 AM on 06.07.2009 10 comments


Today I bought SO4. It was finally released in Australia on Thursday, despite being released nearly everywhere else last year. So far I am about two hours in but since tomorrow is a public holiday I plan to play it a lot more tonight/tomorrow.

Anyway here are pictures of the Collectors Edition:





It includes a game soundtrack which I will put on my ipod later (the only music I have on my ipod are game soundtracks).



These are the 'exclusive' character cards that came with it. I like them, but will probably just keep them in the box.



It also came with a mini strategy guide but I had already purchased the official one online.



Apparently some people say this game sucks but I really like it from what I have played. I love the whole data collection and the battle system is fun. I'm hoping to finish the game 100%, but seriously doubt I will get all the battle trophies from what I've seen.

My plan is to play through the whole Star Ocean series since I never got around to it in the PS1 days. I'm almost finished SO1 on PSP so will probably start SO2 in the next week or two. Anyway time to continue playing!

I still don't get why it doesn't say "Only On Xbox 360." Isn't it an exclusive?

That's an awesome collector's package. I'm a sucker for anything limited edition.

How sweet, they included the anime character art in card form because they cut it from the game. How thoughtful!

That said, I'm really enjoying the game so far, and oddly I don't mind the render art so much anymore now I know it isn't static. They still have different reaction poses, though I not sure if they're the same quantity as the japanese version had. At the very least I find it easier to read expressions of anime characters then 3D because there's less to really interpret. Having a blast in any case, kind of a marriage between the skill system of the older games and the battle system of 3. Which can't be bad.

Wow, so there are people who really do love SO3 rofl. XD;

Ignore what people say, I think the game is great. I was crazy addicted to it. :) And damn, I'm seriously envious because I want the collectors edition.

If only SO4 didn't suck, this would be a nice collector's edition to own. :\
