star ocean 3

[NAILBAT]

dammit i want this damn game so freaking bad...and yet they keep pushing it back...anyone know the offical release now?...I guess tokyo x racer3 and FF-X2 will have to keep me occupied for awhile

[Jalbrean]

I don't believe there is an official date. It's speculated to be coming out in February, but until Square-Enix says for sure i'm not going to get my hopes up.

I've been waiting for what seems like forever for this game. I'll just continue to listen to it's soundtrack and wait... -sigh- erg.

[Shlup]

If they push the release date back one more time I'm going to kick someone in their soft spot.

According to EBGames.com the current release date is Feb. 3rd.

That just figures. The day before that we'll undoubtedly get caught in a time loop as in Groundhog Day and have to wait even longer.

I'm really really looking forward to this game. It just needs to hurry up and be released.

just think about this, the longer you wait, the better its going to be

I hope it has some references to Star Ocean: The Second Story.

Indalecio is my favorite villain of all time, I hope they at least mention him in it.

Why? Who the hell cares?

[Lord Chainsaw]

Star Ocean: The Second Story had some reference to the original, namely Ronixis Kenni.

I would like to see some reference, such as this in Till the End of Time.

I for one "care".

Indalecio was a very well done villain, but you just had to go through sidequests to unlock his past. That is obviously something you didn't do.

And I'm a bit curious, who is your favorite villain? I'm sure I could grind him into the dust. And please for the love of god don't say Sephiroth.

*raises hands* I hate sephiroth and FF7. If i don't go with FFs ill say i liked Legend of Dragoon's Moon Child thingy (been awhile can't remember name) and Lloyd. With FFs I dunno...Anyways I never really got into Star OCeans...are they great games?

[TheAbominatrix]

Star Ocean games are incredible. Until yesteday I'd only played The Second Story, but I picked up the rom translation of the first one from www.dejap.com Check it out. The games are very similiar, and very fun. The battle is real-time (mostly), character development stays pretty deep despite the number of characters it's possible to get, and there's all sorts of fun skills to play with.

[Lord Chainsaw]

I'm very interested in playing the first one, but I have no clue on how to work that file in the link.

[crono_logical]

dejap only has translation patches of games - you still need to get hold of the original japanese ROM from somewhere else to use the patch with.

[TheAbominatrix]

www.edgeemu.com is where I got mine.

To sum up what the dejap readme file says:
Make sure you have the newest version of snes9x
Whatever the file name of the rom is, rename the patch file the same.

And that should be it. I had a bit of trouble because my snes9x was old, but other than that its easy. And it's definitly worth it.

Well we now know that the release date isn't Feb, as Square-Enix announced Drakengard will be their first title of 2004, and it's being released March 2nd.

Egh I'm betting the rumored June release date is when we're gonna get it. I won't mind too much as long as we get the Directors Cut. =\
