Star Ocean remakes landing on North American PSPs?

With a possible subtitle for Dragon Quest VI, I think we’re done with Dragon Quest DS rumors for the time being. Star Ocean rumors? Let’s move on to those.

We’ve been waiting to hear something official about Star Ocean: First Departure and Star Ocean: Second Evolution in North America. Square Enix registered trademarks for both subtitles in North America, but that’s about it. Out of the blue Gamefly is listing both games with a placeholder September 30^th release date. We’re probably not getting both PSP Star Ocean remakes on the same day, but this is the first sign of them.

Also interesting is Gamefly lists the Last Remnant as a PSP game. This is most likely an error since we know the game is in development for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Let’s hope Star Ocean: First Departure and Star Ocean: Second Evolution aren’t privy to the same kind of mistake.

Yeah, it'll be awesome to play So2 again. Most likely with some GREAT voice acting this time around.

I'm actually going to miss the crappy but classic SO2 voice acting, it's just so uniquely terrible that it's endearing. I probably quote from it daily. It's sort of the same situation as with Dracula X Chronicles. I kind of hope we get a Japanese voice option with these games, too.

I'm looking forward to these. It would be really cool if Square gave us both of them in 2008. Maybe one in September, and another in December? It's more likely that the second one would be released in '09 though.
