Star Ocean 2 Second Evolution is coming to the Vita and the PS4. I already own it for PSX and PSP, but I'll pick it up for PS4. Seems a bit greedy that Square Enix isn't offering First Departure and Second Evolution as an HD Collection though.
Star Ocean 2 has one of the best storylines in an RPG and it's also one of the best RPGs if you can just get past the long opening sequence. If you haven't played it or if you just weren't able to make it past the opening, start the game as Rena instead of Claude. You get to see the game through Rena's point of view and the beginning of the game is almost an hour shorter. Rena also gets the better character of the two, even though for that type, the character is worse than three other characters you can acquire throughout the game(and that you'll have before you acquire this specific character.) I like to play through both storylines and get each character so one game I'll get these characters, the other I'll get the other characters.
