I love this game is my fav. PS2 game, Crono Trigger being my Fav. of all time gamewise!

I have 288 BTs and I would not call it torture. I found them quite fun to collect, though most look impossible by first impression. The hard part in fact is getting the most you can on Galaxy. The is part is getting getting the ones from the bosses on higher difficulties is simple since there are easy exploits. The main problem is 4D and Universe is a real pain until you make it to Peterny.

you would need no life to get that many BT's.

I could get that many, then!! xD
I gots no life.

Thank you for stating the obvious. smile

But I do want some more BT's...if I get through my huge gaming list, maybe I'll work on it.

There's gonna be a 'surprise' at the TGS, on the timeline of the game. Most likely the same universe.

Anyway, characters from the series will make appearence. They finally take up on 'ocean of stars', you can now free to explore the universe with airship(with POSSIBLE airship battles), so no more linear 'crash here and go there' stuff. There will be quite a lot of planets, not just two or three. There will still be Private Action and the battle system is upgrated from SO3. This is planned to be released after SO1 and SO2 for the PSP. This game is being fully developed by tri-Ace. They are giving their focus and best on this.

On a side note, the main male and female were already presented out as figures back in the Party. Reimi's last name can't be said right now. Related to some character from the series?

[******** awesome find, potential space ship battles...now that would be fascinating!

[Yoshikazu]

OMFG, Star Ocean 4.
now this is a real reason to get a PS3

[Hiroy]

In anticipation, I got all 300 Battle Trophies yesterday. Yay. I borrowed a Trubo Controller to get the remainder.

Now I have to finish Blue Sphere, and replay SO2.

Serious? How in the hell did you get them all. xD

I got a little over 80% and stopped, some of those would take so unbelievably long to achieve...

And yeah, bring on the new Star Ocean releases, PSP and then SO4 please sometime soon tri-Ace. biggrin

[Divinity the winged]

i loathe this game with a passion

[Silentmusketeer]

I think I forgot to activate the Battle Trophies when I played through (that and I didn't have a spare PS2 card).

I think my current party is Nel, Mirage, and Maria. I control Nel for healing and let Mirage and Maria unload. Mirage tanks pretty well and the party is set up for some serious MP damage. I think defeating Freya is the only major quest I have left, but that one's a real pain. I might need to try stun bombs or invincibility pills to stay alive through that huge attack of hers.

[Fayt258]

Oh Freya...she is really tough.

One accessory I found handy is a refined Blazing Pendant, with it you can at least eliminate her elemental attacks. But otherwise, really beefed up characters is what you need to beat her; which includes a fair few Boots of Prowess. lol

Saving time, playing, and long breaks. I had the game when it was first released in the US, so yeah. XD

Oh dear...that means I'm going to be broke again. Or save and reload a lot. Those boots are a bloody pain and a half to refine. Best I can do is throw as many cost-reducing people on as I can and pray.

[Yoshikazu]

I heard that some characters from past games will make an appearance in the fourth one. Well is this true? if it is then i hope its Roger or Leon
