Final Fantasy 7?!! You mean the Final Fantasy 7 with a horrible translation?!! Wow.....just wow.

Good to see opinions.
I just hugely disagree. FF13 is trounced upon by Lost Odyssey. Graphics hands down go to FF13. Everything else goes to Lost Odyssey. Including emotional cutscenes and music. Nubuo. You rule.

How do you view scripting. Word for word? Or how it pans?
After all JRPG i probably the worst genre in history for scripting, but we cant compare FF7 to other genres. Now Grandia 2 was great. But that was laughable scripting.

Word for word if thats the case FF12 has the best scripting out of the main FF's & thats my least liked one....but I admit it has the best dialogue/writing
If its on how it pans out FF6 trounces every FF to hell & back. rofl.

I hugely disagree too. in gameplay prt th most, i luvd ff13's gameplay mor thn any rpg this gen. in emotions lost oddesy hs more standout scenes, bt the characters in ff13 i liked as they wer all based on cliches, but devloped in a un clichd way (except for horrible fang). In lost oddessy the chrcters stayed cliched and th kids were annoying.
music in lost oddesy ws very disappointing considering nobuo made it, ff13's battle thems are much bettr thn the lost oddessy ones.
the story in LO was bland & boring, the dreams wer sum of the best stories I hve ever seen in gaming on th othr hand, they wer genius, lost oddessy excelld ther ina way no game has. ff13 story did things i hvnt seen in rpg's, it made each character time bombs, put them agenst their country, put them through situations i hvnt seen in rpg's. (like hope & snow balcony scene in chapter 7 of ff13)
ff13 brought a unique world with it, lost oddesy felt too familiar, ff13 felt new & fresh. ff13 trounces lost oddesy evrywher xcept for emotion scenes
in this gen for me mass effect 2, tales of vesperia & ff13 stnd leagues above other RPG's

Accusing the LO cast of being particularly cliche is kind of... odd. What part of them came across that way to you?
And, uh
Could you link to the two best FF13 battle themes? I'll do the same for LO, for comparison's sake.

Cool.
I wont argue the point. Because we have both said our opinions.
And thats what they are. Opinions. :) At least we both like the genre. :)

Yeah I agree, with FF6 beating FF7. But I meant since FF7's script which is the last one I really liked in JRPG's, that LO was a new refreshing game. Although it probably has the worst bad guy in history. LOL
