Our take on the Square Enix Star Ocean PlayStation 2

Star Ocean: Till the End of Time is tri-Ace's PlayStation 2 action RPG, published by Square Enix, and the third main entry in the Star Ocean series. It is known for its fast real-time battle system built on Fury Points, bonus gauges and customizable combos, plus a long dual-disc story with private actions and multiple endings. It suits RPG players who want deep combat systems and lots of optional content over a polished, modern presentation. Compared with Final Fantasy X or Kingdom Hearts, its battles are more technical and its story and voice acting are more divisive; it is also the entry many series fans consider the strongest of the PS2 era.
