If Blue Dragon sells in America I will personally go to the house of whoever bought it and deep fry their 360.



 

 

whats wrong with blue dragon
your insulting a game that was made by the greater of the greatest franchise ever.



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B   

Proud supporter of all 3 console companys

Proud owner of 360wii and DS/psp              

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

O for december as long as they get more news on it im guessing lost odyssey has a decent possibility of making 100k as long as its released when it says it is

(really depends, if blue dragon does really well i expect same for lost odyssey same type)
