About this product
Product Information
Star Ocean: First Departure is a remake of the original Star Ocean. First released on the Super Famicom in 1996, this version marks the first time the game is available in North America. Star Ocean: First Departure had a release date of 2008 on the Sony PSP platform. In Star Ocean: First Departure, a group of friends is searching the cosmos to find a cure for a new disease that has ravaged their planet. When they come into contact with two warring factions, they are sucked into the middle of their fight. To find a cure for the disease, these friends must first put a stop to this conflict. The game was developed by Tri-Ace and published by Square Enix.You will have to battle if you want to make progress in the story. In Star Ocean: First Departure, you will take control of one character while the computer handles the other three. Your character has a basic attack combo that you can modify by using two special moves during battle. Chaining together basic attacks and special moves is your ticket to big damage. You can also use spells and items during battle. These spells and items can heal your damage or make you impervious to attacks. Many of the combat systems in this game were overhauled from the original release for the Super Nintendo. Armor and weapons will make all the difference during battle. A set of new armor can mean the difference between barely surviving a fight and coming out without a scratch. However, if you can't afford a new piece of armor, you can always craft it. Each character has his or her own set of crafting abilities. These abilities let them make items ranging from weapons and armor to a plate of delicious food. Characters will often need to combine their skills to create items of the highest quality. The crafting skills you learn in this PSP game aren't just limited to this mode. You can use these skills during battle to power up your character, such as giving him more armor. Star Ocean: First Departure differs from most PSP RPG games in that it isn't linear. Instead, every choice you make propels you towards a different ending. The choices you make will also influence the members who join your party and even who you meet. No two games of this PlayStation RPG play out the same. Interspersed in the game are anime cut scenes produced by the esteemed Production I.G. company. All major plot points in the game are also voiced by professional actors. Famous voice actors, such as Yuri Lowenthal, lend their talents to this PlayStation title. This title has a rating of T for Teen due to its animated violence. Fans of the Star Ocean series finally get to play the game that started the series with this PSP title. This title features the same excellent story as the SNES game from Japan but with upgraded visuals and gameplay mechanics.
