This is a upgraded version of Star Ocean on the Super Famicom that Nintendo and Enix thought wouldn't work here in the west in 1996, but they were wrong. Fast forward to 2008 and you get this lovely gem for your PSP. It's essentially Star Ocean: The Second Story's game engine from the PS1 with the First Departure's story line plugged in. Do yourself a favor and don't miss this excellent JRPG.

Star Ocean First departure for the PlayStation Portable is one of the best games on the handheld the Second Story second evolution even better the item Creation in first departure isn't as good as the Second Story evolution it's still workable and the replayability to find new characters works as well

I've first played the star ocean 2 for the psx. I finally got this game and got to play it. It was really interesting to play this game. And in the pros and cons section below: Yes, I'm aware that this was originally a SNES game. Opens up some things for Star ocean 2 and 4 players. Cons: Very short game Bonus dungeon was a bit of a letdown Not many different endings Not many free slots for new chars to join (I was forced to have 6 char slots used, leaving only 2 slots open in the end) After some voluntary events, one character leaves Rather high enc rate Character art Only ONE character is able to call for bunny, if you don't have this character, better luck next time No your own transportation vehicles such as an airship Pros: Very much like the Star Ocean 2 for the psx The story BEFORE events of Star Ocean 2 is unraveled here Movie gallery Voice gallery Great humor, got me cracked up SO many times Upgraded graphics, game looks great Great soundtrack New character StoryRead full review
Generally, the game is pretty fun to play through. It lacks some clarity as to the story line--where to go, what to do. I take my games kinda relaxed and tend to exhaust them on the first run through (take 80 hours to play a 30 hour game), but I got lost a couple of times and had to resort to the internet for help. There is a lot of backtracking. That would be my biggest problem with it. However, the soundtrack is fun and not completely monotonous. The anime vignettes are fun, and the story is clear and moves along pretty well. Overall it is a lot better than other RPG's that I have bought for the PSP. Worth buying.
Though the graphics arnt what I'm use to im getting used to it these games are awesome just like 3, 4 and 5
