Looks like the system that was capable of producing amazing graphics that TRI-ACE referred to as the platform of choice is ofcourse the PS3! Im betting on a complete unveiling at TGS in 2 weeks.

click the link for screenshots.

This looks like an interesting game. I don't know Star Ocean 1-3 though. I'll be keeping my eye on this one.

You really expect a major sequel to be announced for a last gen system?

They all take place in the same universe, but usually a few years apart from each other and with a new cast of characters. so you won't need to revisit the other 3 games to know whats going on!

2 the PS2 owner: It'll come on PS2 as well.

Furthrmore I wouldn't mind playing the first three games if they're good. Discovering a nice new (Square) jrpg is always nice. Now where do I lobby for the originalStar Oceanto be released on the Wii Virtual Console?

So we are looking at possibly:

- KH 3

- Star Ocean 4

- Unnamed Square PS3 project (possibly Star Ocean 4, the website is an obscure one)

- Final Fantasy 13 clips

...epic showing for Sony.

SO3 was a huge dissapointment for me.. the battle system is a lot diffrent than other RPGs you should rent 3 before you consider 4. its a new story everytime im pretty positive.

how was the battle system in SO1/2? the thing that interested me in SO3 was that within each battle, the game played as an action RPG.

So funny for this to be announced. My buddy just borrowed SO3 from me, and I was over at his house watching him play it not 5 minutes before reading this. As for the pics being CGI movie, that's cool by me. Square has always done CGI cutscenes better than anyone, I'm certainly not bothered by the fact that it looks like they are keeping up the good work.

This was inevitable, I hope it stays on the PS3 only for developmental reasons. I hope to see more of this at TGS but I am also hoping for more news on the PSP releases of Star Ocean 1&2

Square doesn't really do multi-plats, well other than porting all the classic FF games to everything from GBA to PSP to cell phones. They release games for just about every system, but any given game is an exclusive to a system. As far as I know, anyway. Can anyone think of any Square multiplats, other than the FF remakes?

Not doubting this - but, where is the actual confirmation? IGN lists the game on both the 360 and PS3, labeled as "Unofficial". Other than the fact it lists the PS3 as the platform, I didn't see any actual news announcement on the game. Just wondering, and I'm personally hoping this game is on the PS3 only... and like someone mentioned, mainly for development purposes.

Square-Enix have already been quoted in interveiws saying that it is harder to stay on one platform in this gen because costs are so high. They said there will be alot of multi-platform games because developers have to recoupe as much of the development cost as possible. I think last Remnant is just the begining sadly.

Star Ocean was great, Second Story was better, 'Till the end of Time was crap. I sure hope this one will rock. Star Ocean 3 had this recovery time in which you couldn't hit a monster for 1 second or so when it was trying to get up. It annoyed the hell out of me; it is the reason why I stopped playing.

Star ocean one was fantastic...the second one was better though...ironically those are the most valued games for trade in still. Blockbuster offers 30$ for them if memory serves me from when i worked there. I agree on the third one though, i just never had the time to play it in long enough spurts to get the bonus's.
