know about the series back when it first was introduced to the gaming
masses back on the Super Nintendo or the original PlayStation. While
I grew up around those platforms I just didn't really know about Star
Ocean. My focus was on Final Fantasy, Tekken, Suikoden and Crash
Bandicoot.
However, I did pick up both remakes for the PlayStation Portable (The First Departure and The Second Evolution).
