Lost Odyssey is GREAT, but NOT that great.

It is the best "Next Gen" RPG, (and one of my overall favorite next gen games), but it is not better than FFVII or even FFX or FFXII. In fact many ps2 RPG's are better in my opinion. Maybe not graphically, but as far as story, epicness, imersion, battle system, etc.

What I do love about Lost Odyssey is the character development. The actual story is weak and slow, but the characters are wonderful and lovable.

A great game...I'd give it an 8.5/10 personally.


 Lost Odyssey is a pretty decent game. It's the first decent RPG we've had in a long time and the best 'next-gen' RPG by miles. But some people are just going nuts over this game so it's nice to see a bit of levity. I suppose a 'good' game can look 'great' when it's swimming in a sea of mediocrity. There are a large number of PS2 RPGs much better than Lost Odyssey.

 I just reached the fourth disc and I'm about 29.5 hours into it and I'd give it an 8 so far. Definitely worth the time of a JRPG afficianado but not the second coming, so to speak.
