Majed Athab writes "You know, come to think of it, the universe of PSP game releases is a lot like our very own ocean of stars up beyond the sky. They're like those twinkling balls of gas, so many of them, so many out of reach and so many that are far in between. But when one reaches for that one star they call their own, it's magical.

In the years since Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom made its English debut in 2012, otome games have enjoyed a surge of popularity worldwide. The genre went from an unknown to one that received multiple releases on various platforms each year. Sony handhelds have long been a haven for such titles, with people who own a Vita enjoying the fruits of this bevy of releases.
Phil writes, "It's the Jewish new year today, and I'm glad I could catch it before the day's end. The Jewish calendar is more than a few thousand years ahead of the standard Roman calendar that we generally use. And it's around more than four thousand digits ahead of SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs VGM volume total.
Regardless, as is customary on Mondays, the Favorite VGMs are here to deliver great video game music to all readers of SuperPhillip Central. This week, the critically mixed Star Fox Zero leads off with its version of Corneria. Then, Mario Kart 7 races onto the scene. Star Ocean: The Second Story is one of my favorite video game soundtracks of all time, so this week I'm showing off a world map theme for the game. Next, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars delivers a titillating tune. Finally, Me & My Katamari busts out a ten minute-long funk-a-licious song.
As always, click on the VGM volume name to reach the YouTube video featuring that song. And if you want to listen to past VGM volumes featured on SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs, look no further than the always-updated VGM Database. Now, let's get on to the music!"
Following its October launch on PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, Square Enix has released Star Ocean: Second Evolution on PlayStation 3 in Japan for 2,268 yen.
The port features a new opening theme song sung by twin duo Rina Eri, Trophy support, paid “support” downloadable content (items, level-ups, etc.), and improved graphics and background music quality.
Anyone know if they plan on releasing this for the PS4 in the west? I didn't even know about this until just now, Second Story was always my favorite one in the series.
