I think im more qualified than you! ~sigh~ I cant remember what game he was after but they were like, its not out on that system. We were like yes, yes it.

I think after that we went to came and then got it from there. So what do the pratice?

Well at most Game stops here in the States the people are friendly and they are quite knowledgeable and you don't need a gaming degree which is cool. I just don't like the fact that you get one forth of what you pay for a game if even that sometimes. That is how the business model works for Gamestop. I have friends that work for them and they are super cool I must say. They usually have a well balanced staff with everyone having interest in different gaming genres.

Ohhh... Star Ocean 2... <3
It was my first major departure from Pokemon into the big wild world of RPGs, and I have to say, it is still one of my top 3 favorite games to this day. I got it when I was about 10 (I'm 18 now) and... <3
The storyline was great, the characters were so memorable, the artwork was epic (got the strategy guide just for that. Lol), the music was sweeping, the private actions (need I say more?), and the overall blend of fantasy and Sci-fi was just refreshing. I don't have a PSP just yet, but when I get one, I'm going to pick up the remake right away (as well as SO1.).

Star Ocean One is awesome too! I really love this game and apparently when I was playing the game at work I had hid it in a desk at work and someone snatched it away from me which really made me sad.

Well i have to say that Star Ocean 2 was one of my favorite playstation 1 RPG games. Its sad that i dont know what happened to my playstation copy. Still i have the PSP verison of the game. Lucky that didnt go missing when i losted my PSP otherwise i would have been sad. That said however i would still like an orignal copie again.

Whats Star Ocean 4 like? its on my list of games to get?

Wow, very nice! I would have done it too. I am getting my ps3 next month so it will be a bit longer until I get a PSP again, but I will get it if for no other reason than the SO games and FF games lol. I almost got a copy of the psx SO2 but decided to hold off, the graphics for the psp are a bit better in a way, and after hunting through ebay they game will be cheaper on psp as well now. Scary how many psx games are soooo overpriced (to me anyhow) on ebay lately.

I think it's funny that you lost your Play Station One copy, whereas for me my Play Station Portable copy was stolen and I still have my play station one copy. Those are really rare. I have Star Ocean One, which I'm just about to beat. I have only played the first couple of hours of Star Ocean Four, and it is interesting. I have only played as four characters so far. It looks like it could possibly get really interesting. I just need to get back to playing it but Dragon Age Origins has greatly distracted me from doing that. I have been disconnecting and reconnecting my Play Station Three and my X-box Three Sixty going back and forth playing games from both systems.

@LadyKikyo ~ Yea, you may as well get it on the Play Station Portable. You won't regret getting the play station three as it is so multi-facetted. Make sure you get one that is backwards compatable. I know they have one with two hundred and fifty gigabyte memory available for the hard drive for three hundred and forty nine dollars US.
