I loved Star Ocean 2 and Star Ocean 3 was pretty good, but I never bothered to train for those post-game option dungeons
I can't wait to get First Departure and Second Evolution for PSP, and Star Ocean 4 for the 360!

And I never finished III yet, but I plan on it sometime in the future. All in all it's a good series!

I don't think I've played it in two years actually
I forgot what part I was even up to. I think I was fighting in some temple with some crystal monsters. I can't remember
EDIT: It was this part. http://youtube.com/watch?v=1HsBtS6fWSk&feature=related
I can't beat that thing and now my PS2 crapped out so I can't even play the game.

It was really obvious that the one who created it was the Tales of Phantasia group, but it was still really distinct from their previous game.

oh, tri-ace... where would we be without your nifty battle systems...
it's nice to know people know their RPG stuff...
I only played the first and second one. I actually tried completing the bonus dungeon in SO2 only to have the floor wiped by my rear by the boss there... Celestia.. something-or-other. That's when I never touched it again...
remembering SO2 made me want to dig up some of those horrible voice clips... like this one... remember the Decus/Vesper fight? :|

I hope you aren't saying that cause everyone in that game has a tail. Or are you saying that because it STARTS OUT as a button masher. Maybe you haven't given it enough time, I dunno. I dunno why you would say that, have you played the origonal version? I haven't gotten very far, but I like it from what I've played. ...although yeah, at first you're basically mashing buttons, but it gets better.

I enjoyed Star Ocean 1, and it's the only game in the series I've somewhat played. I LOVED all the Star Trek references littered through the prologue. The Plot and Characters were good, the non-linearity was also amazingly executed.
But, there was one MAJOR problem that prevented me from continuing.
The MAP is linear. That wouldn't be so bad, except there is a LOT of trekking back and forth in the game, and without some sort of useful transportation system and tons of random battles, the game gets repetitive in the wrong ways. I mean, yes there are ships, but if I remember correctly, it was only one way!
Some day I aught to go back and beat it, but augh!

Er, I have to disagree with you there. I honestly enjoyed playing the first Star Ocean. I mean, other than the gameplay, the story itself was pretty interesting. I'm not sure why you dislike it so much though > u <;
And I didn't realize that the first Star Ocean game was never released outside of Japan. Too bad, it's a pretty fun game.

Anyway, SO3 started out pretty fun all around, except Sophia annoyed me (most characters like her usually do). After a while I found the story tended to drag on and on. A lot of characters were rather cliche' too, though I suppose that isn't always a bad thing.
What bothered me the most was this. With a game in which space travel is a central theme...
Spoiler:
The games best feature was definetly the battle system. It was what kept me playing. And the chance for different endings was a fun idea, though I never go the one I wanted.
