(First discussion topic of this thread! Yay!)

A couple of days ago, Star Ocean: First Departure has been released in Japan, selling 80,000 copies at the first day, which is really impressive.

From what I have played through so far (don't ask how I have obtained this, unless you figure out how), it shows to be a great remake of the original. And since this game uses the SO2 engine, the people who played and enjoyed Star Ocean: The Second Story will also have a great time playing this.

So, does anyone else has anything to say about this magnificent game?
