i remember there being much more raving about Lost Odyssey closer to when it came out. Since then, there's been plenty of good, more recent competition to steal the spotlight. But as for why 360 fans specifically don't seem to show it as much love as it probably deserves... I'm not sure. One would think that 360 fans would love having such a major exclusive JRPG when they're not common on Microsoft's systems. Although, I think 360 might've became a major stronghold for Western RPGs to the point where some fans simply wouldn't care.


That's weird, because back in 2006-2007 the Xbox was a stronghold for japanese games, especially RPGs.


Which is exactly why we're having this discussion.

Which is exactly what I don't understand. Don't tell me we're back at the "Xbox only plays shooter" thing of 2008. Everytime I've seen some JRPG chat in Vgchartz Lost Odyssey has been mentioned. People (you can tell in this same thread) love to say that feels weird to play japanese games on the Xbox. But people do, actually, and that's a fact. OP is saying why does not the Xbox crowd rant about Lost Odyssey. It is not needed...I think. Well, that's my opinion, though...

360 has more than LO and ToV, though. I strongly recommend Magna Carta 2 and Nier, which are both exclusive to the 360. Nier is one of the best games I played this generation, while Magna Carta 2 is very similar to Xenoblade(and it has a great story too).

Do you think that the OP is jealous of the attention that Xenoblade and Ni No Kuni get from the Nintendo and Sony fanbases, respectively?

I don't see a case for why JRPG fans should be raving about Lost Odyssey more than they already have been, but I can understand comparing fanbase reactions to top-tier games in certain genres.

Neir isn't a 360 exclusive (but it is really, really good). Magna Carta 2 is at least worth a look.

Of course you do! I do speak more than one language too. But bear something in mind: one should not include the japanese-only market when discussing these things, because the insane amount of unreleased JRPGs (among other kind of games) to the west available for the Xbox, Ps3 and Wii is incredible.

 

The fact that Vesperia for Ps3 is japanese-only alienates the 90-95% of the western PS3 players. So yeah, Tales of Vesperia is pretty much exclusive to the 360. (And if you want me to correct myself, it is exclusive in the west)
