Jankaz - have you ever played and enjoyed a Final Fantasy game? Its like FPS games: certain aspects work well. The JRPG genre hasn't evolved much in the past 15 years, but LO is the near perfection of the genre.

Yet at the same time most reviewers reactions are basically "WHAT TURN BASED GAMEPLAY! WHAT IS THIS THE FUCKING STONE AGES!"

Well... unless it's a Final Fantasy game... but even they stopped using full turnbased.

Or Persona oddly.  I'm assuming Persona and the less hyped but franchise powerful RPGs actually go to the guy who is a JRPG freak though. 

You know what's a really awesome game. Puzzle Quest. I got him some live points for that and he got Puzzlequest with it. Man that's a fun game despite being a heavily modded bejewled.

I'm greatly enjoying this game. I bored of FFX because the battles were ungodly boring, but I've clocked in 70 hours on this game so far and haven't tired of it yet.

And for those trying to estimate the length of the game by the length of the first 3 disks, the 4th disk is much longer. Disks 1-3 took 15 hours each, I'm 20 hours into disk 4 and have barely touched the main storyline.

The reviews on this game dont seem to great. It actually looks cool, but I here its pretty generic jrpg. What happened? The guy who created FF seems to be stuck on old rpg gameplay, (like with blue dragon). I hear its better than BD, so lets hope the next one is awesome!

I'll have you know I love the old way, I hate the way Final Fantasy went with the battle system. I miss face to face battles. It's what I grew up with it's what I love and I know several who agree with me. Having said that, the game deserves a much better score than it got, it's my favorite game this gen thus far.

Strange. In Germany Lost Odyssey was released last Monday. The offical launch was also dated for this Friday...

I was surprised to see Lost Odyssey in the stores and picked it up immediatly


Great game and I recommend this to all gamers who likes a great story.

These dreams are just awesome. This is the first game in which I can laugh (Jensen) and also cry (the first dream)


So if you still haven't bought LO ... now is the time!

Don't care about the reviews... they are imo all wrong!

Best game since Conker for me!
