    It is the best way to play second story. The PS1 version does not hold up well, and it is worth it to have.

    I loved the original start ocean games, for some unknown reason developers are forgetting to make the games fun first before worrying about big graphics

    Already was a great game and still is today with updates. A very well done remake that keeps the charm of the original but brings it to a new audience to appreciate.

    Another solid port remake of a classic jrpg. The download is for more languages and has nothing to do with the game itself. So don’t fear
