    In just less than 6 months apart, Squareenix remakes the Star Ocean 2 game for the PSP. Fans who loved the original will love this new remake as it includes a few new changes, new graphic interface and more fluid animation than its PS1 version. Other than that nothing much noting other than the new remixed Original sound track and a few new additions such as remade Cutscenes.

  1. It still looks a lot like it did on PSOne 10 years ago. [Jan 2009, p.84]

    Square Enix has done an admirable job of updating classic titles from its library and Second Evolution is just the latest example of their commitment to its loyal fanbase. [Feb 2009, p.70]

    Star Ocean: Second Evolution is clearly a better game than First Departure, despite suffering from some of the same issues.
