Although every other entry in the series has appeared on a Sony console, Star Ocean: The Last Hope is currently scheduled to only be released on the XBox 360. Apparently this is down to the fact that the 360 is easier to develop for – something which has been noted by one or two other companies previously.

This fifth installment features more of a science fiction emphasis than past titles, with the ability to control your own ship, and the battle system now includes four party members. Serving as a prequel, the events depicted take place a few centuries before Star Ocean in approximately the year 2097.

Zavvi have this game available for £14.95 – for more information, click here.
