I was reading through this article because I played this game a few years ago and forgot the plot. What I was presented with was poorly written, it sounds like a Japanese fan tried to write it in English. It gets even worse when you get to the part about the characters. Could an expert on this game who is fluent in English revise all the grammar eyesores? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.160.213.253 (talk) 01:05, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
I removed a paragraph because although it meant that RG makes references to "many" sci-fi works, Star Wars is the only one mentioned. Also, that section is about the Plot and Story alone.
If the Star Wars reference is mentioned because it's the easiest (as whoever wrote it, "obvious") to spot, then it's better to wait for SCEA/Level-5 to complete their US localization and release before putting it back there.
And it would be wise to make it a point that Rogue Galaxy does not "rip-off" elements from Star Wars but rather, makes an allusion/reference/homage to them. Furthermore, consider watching Disney's Treasure Planet as it's likely to have also been made an allusion in RG (and Robert Louis Stevenson's adventure novel "Treasure Island").
Also consider this statement for possible/future inclusion in the article:
(Akihiro Hino talked at length about his company's newest PlayStation 2 project, Rogue Galaxy. (...) He explained that Level 5 chose the title Rogue Galaxy because the protagonist will eventually team up with bad guys only to fight other bad guys.) http://rpgfan.com/news/2005/1872.html —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.29.183.201 (talk • contribs) 16:44, November 2, 2006 (UTC)
Once you get to more depth of story line, its not much like star wars or treasure planet.
Until we get more info on the U.K version -- please do not add the release date. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zeta26 (talk • contribs) 21:01, January 9, 2007 (UTC)
Speaking of the UK release date, since when was it moved back from June to September? The official word is still June:

Could whoever changed the release date provide a source? Philtrauferson 17:14, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay, I'm changing the release date back to June. I can't find any source which says September. If I am wrong, feel free to correct me, but no-one seems very enthusiastic to do so right now. Philtrauferson 22:10, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK says the release date is September on it's review of the game (although in another part of the magazine it says August). Leemorrison 15:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

I think we need to email Sony to get their word on this, though I can't find an email address to send it to. If someone can get a relevant email address, I'll send a polite email. No saying if they'll reply though. Sorry if this is a bit un-wikipedia-y. Philtrauferson 00:37, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
AberforthD, you're probably right. I say keep the 29 June off the article for now. Leemorrison 22:47, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I removed "Star Ocean" from the combat section as Star Ocean's battles, although using the same graphics as out of battle, do use transitions. Also, although I did not remove either of them, Kingdom Hearts II and Final Fantasy XII are significantly different in combat due to the ATB time delay in Final Fantasy XII between attacks (as opposed to Kingdom Hearts II's more fluid and seamless combat system). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.51.88.231 (talk • contribs) 12:43, April 4, 2007
Rogue galaxy is better than kingdom hearts 2 and final fantasy XII
I've noticed that when talking about the characters, somone added in rather useless information about how useful/useless certain characters are and how their skills are useful/useless.
Shouldn't this be less about how the author views a character and more about just the character?
I'd change it myself...but...well...meh.

The US version, at least, is dual-layer, I'm fairly sure. I've no verifiable source, but it's a pretty big deal among people who try to pirate it. Beaumains 22:36, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
I believe Burton should belong in the Other Characters section. he shows up more times than other characters and helps out the crew by telling them about ancient legends. Either he should be added, or people like Angela and Miri should be taken out. BioYu-Gi! 18:58, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
With out Angela or Miri the other character woulndn't join the crew so they should stay in. User:Teyachi 18:58, 15 january 2008 (UTC)
Some guy removed the list of planets and characters. That doesn't make sense to me, as every other video game article lists the characters. At the very least the main 8 need to be put back in, I don't know about the planets. For other examples of video game articles with characters, see Jet Set Radio Future and Dragon Quest 8.

They needed new stuff to start out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Teyachi (talk • contribs) 03:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
