<div class="IPBDescription">doom 3 vs. star ocean?</div> <a href='http://www.gamefaqs.com/' target='_blank'>lookeh todeh's polleh</a>

I just thought it's funny that, as of this post, people are looking forward to star ocean more than doom 3, and the majority aren't looking forward to ANY august release. Star Ocean and Doom are neck-and-neck though.

I hate to admit it among this crowd, but I voted for star ocean <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo--> I'm just all hyped out re: doom 3 (and HL2, for that matter), I figure there's no way they can live up to anything and they'll probably both just be a couple new good shooters, nothing for the history books... hopefully I'm wrong, but the excitement just goes away after a while, when it has nowhere to go for so long...

    Whoo! Star Ocean is coming out?!

    Wait....I thought the....ahh nevermind. It's just the translation. I just hope they don't screw up the voice acting....

    Which reminds me, I haven't played it yet and it's collecting dust in its case XD

    Star Ocean looks pretty cool but it doesn't even have a UK release date -.-

    The problem with Star Ocean is that it takes so long to translate it.

    I had my import copy for a year, and yet they're only releasing the English one recently XD

    But I still haven't touched it yet o_O
    EDIT : I figured if they kept the battle system the same as Star Ocean 2, then I might enjoy the battle system XD

    How in the HELL can you compare Doom 3 to Star Ocean? Doom 3 is a FPS while Star Ocean is a RPG game... omg how stupid.

    Anyway.

    Star Ocean - The Second Story for the PSOne was a really awesome RPG game, if you're a fan of the series, check it out, it's awesome.

    And we all know Doom 3 is going to be awesome anyway... so I won't go there.

    I just watched the anime series of Star ocean, and then played the psx game.. kind of boring then <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The good thing about Star Ocean is the combat system, and the fact that (almost) all the characters are useful in their own ways.

    Yes I usually end up using him because he's too err...overpowered. Nobody's complaining though since it's a console RPG XD

    And if you look up some Star Ocean 2 sites, Claude's birthday is the same as mine <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Besides, the combat system was what I liked about it the most.

    I alsways used Opera. Mainly because of the fact that if you use her ultra which I can't remember, Chisato's flamethrower, and Claude's mirror slice, enemies get plastered against the wall and cant ever move. Its fun beating the final boss when he never hits you.

    I never beat Star Ocean 2, I could never beat the last fricken boss even at level 200ish, I never got to see my ending because I released the boss' limiter, something I wish I never did because no matter what I could never beat him, I think once I got him below 50% health.. but only once =/

    Game sucks. I base this on absolutely nothing except its fans.
