you could just buy the 360 version, it should be cheap(er) now.

Star Ocean 4 is coming out on the 5th of June, but there are issues with it. Nazna's review was critical of freezing problems, and I think there have been problems with slowdowns. Also, IGN's review highlighted backtracking issues over disc changing.

I know the game hasn't been announced for PS3 yet, but I am leaning towards waiting to get it on a blu-ray disc, most likely with extra content.

Really depends on two things.

1. Are you hungry for JRPG?

2. What's your backlog look like?

I would stay away from purchasing it unless you really want another JRPG and you don't have anything else to play.

1. I am not that hungry, I still have to finish IU and do a bit of LO, but I do fear WKC and then FFXIII early next year

2. Not that great now, apart from achievement and trophy huting, though I do plan to get several cheap games in June, I'll get inFamous the week before as well, with the U2;AT beta

Yeah, so I should probably wait a bit, especially as it did not get that great reviews as well

Wait until E3. By then we should have a better idea, if not total confirmation, on SO4's PS3 status.

Just rent the 360 version first. If you have the issues mentioned, wait it out, if it doesn't effect your experience pick it up.

Renting won't work, I can't just have 1 or 2 achievements....

It is not full price, but it is not reduced, as it is not out yet here in Europe
