One of the best games this generation. It was a delight from start to finish, and the mini-stories scattered through the game were a stroke of genius!
I'm ashamed I traded this game in after I beat it. Luckily, my friend bought the same copy from the GameStop I traded it in to. Now I can just snatch it from when he's done!
2:20 amazing !! loved the game !! althogh it took me sometime to beat it, i had to play it at my friends place since i dont have an Xbox360, wish they release another edition on PS3 :(
Part 2 of this game can be one TRUE highlight of my future.
I don't know about "YOU" but I'm starting to become RPG starved.
I've been changing since developers have become one-sided with the development of game genres. Without RPGs where will "US" sensual video game players go? what about us! I feel like we've been pushed aside for a faster growing generation, only to fade away with time. (depressingly put)
If they stop making RPGs that are complete, and worth playing then "US" sensual players will have to get out emotional filling else where.The worst part is the only other place left for sensual fulfillment is through woman. This is bad because we all feel nowadays they don't bring such complete fulfill like the games do, just a temporary substitution. Or, is it the games that provide the temporary substitution?
(continues from last post) I think woman have become so wishy washy over the years that RPGs have become a dominate means of emotional gratification for "US" sensual guys. They have continued to provide a "PROMISING" stream of PURE heart felt emotions, even if only for 40 hours, or so. While woman have continued to decline in there responsibilities. I'm afraid money is going to be the downfall of RPGs because they cost too much to make, while bringing in so little. GOD HELP US, PLEASE.
Lost Odyssey doesn't have the best graphics. FF XIII does. Lost Odyssey doesn't have the best CGI cutscenes. FF XIII does. Lost Odyssey does have the best story. FF XIII fails epically. Lost Odyssey has the best characters. FF XIII fails epically again. Lost Odyssey does offer the best atmosphere. FF XIII is a random piece of soulless undead software. Lost Odyssey WINS. FATALITY!
@MioRaem You may be right but Lost Odyssey has the best artwork, story and gameplay. Tetsuya is a little overrated Inoue Takehiko is a complete god at art.
Honestly playing this has made me think. Why did Nobuo Uematsu leave the moment Square Enix formed? He said it was because he got sick of FF but here we have a game made by the creators of FF and he's happy to compose an amazing score for these guys. Makes you wonder what Nobuo Uematsu really thinks about Square Enix as a company. I think Square Enix made Nobuo lie so that it wouldn't tranish there name for futre FF releases. Which suck to be fair.
@gustoThegangsta That's what I said long before that crappy FFXIII was released, but no-one believed me...I saw immediatily from trailers that the storyline, characters and dialoge of XIII were going to be totally terrible. Lost Odyssey on the other hand is one of the best games of this console generationa and deserves a sequel!
@GooGobbler113 Yeah I liked 8 as well but it was confusing and not as fun as 7 and X. But the thing I love about Tetsuya's art for FF is that in each game it changes which is good so characters won't look like a previous character like Akira Toriyama does.
this game got a 8.2 and its an exclusive to xbox 360 and this is the first time i heard about it. i think the only reason why i havent heard of this is because its jrpg but still i should deffenently buy this.
@milontua do it is the best rpg of this generation and my favourite game of 360 nice graphics good characters history music... and i always prefered the turn based system like the olds final fantasy
Lol i love how he's all like huh... Oh well let's get out of here, another great day nothing like fighting a big army and then get a meteor explosion on my face to get in the good mood!
This is IMO one of the best videogame openings EVER! Lost Odyssey is my Top 1 JRPG of this Generation!,
I can watch it every time and it will be always EPIC and fun in all aspects. It's sad to see how this game has been so underrated while JRPGs like FF XII have gotten high scores, being games that only get saved for their name, because, compared to the previous FFs, and with no intentions to offend anyone, is a total crap.
@alanvamp just a little factoid for ya dunno if you knew or not but, the hideo something or another guy that was behind like all of the good FF's had a part in this game's development, thats why theyre so similar!
Uh... I was agreeing with drunken saying lightning isn't even a close comparison. Stated that if they wanted to make any kind of comparison to Kaim closest FF character would be Cecil... Read my post correctly next time.
@MareTranquil I think that they changed the sound effects because in the opening of my LO, the sounds are exactly like this video. Or maybe Mongoose and me have some very bad sound systems XD.
Usually in the trailers put many things (many of them pretty cool) that later are removed.
I like the way this game would talk about the horrifying nature of war a lot, especially in the "thousand years of dreams". They had a cinematic battle scene that most would consider "cool" or that they would actually want to take part in because they think it would be fun, but after the battle your met with all sorts of horrible scenarios throughout the game involving things like all the families that are now fatherless thanks to you, and stuff of that nature.
when i saw this game first i was at my friend. he just bought it and we were watching the intro and we were like "damn that's pretty violent for a game made by the makers of final fantasy!" but we loved it!!!
I don't know how I would feel about being revived by that tower just to charge at the oversized soldiers again, more than likely getting impaled a second time.
In fairness you would have no fear of battle if you couldn't die, thats sort of the point of the immortal characters in the game who are sort of indifferent to the idea.
all I know is that the one part in this game where the evil wizard takes control of the flying tower and pwns the whole frickin world and freezes over an entire city is hella badass. I was like, "Whoa..."
If you read some of the dreams or whatever they are youll see it says that they cant be killed at all. Obviously if they can be killed kaim wouldve died in the beggining of the game (along with the girl with the blue hair but i cant remember her name). They dont "die" anyways if you wait a few turns the immortal characters will come back to life.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this game is great (love it) love all the cuts and other stuff but they shound have had more battle scenes in their. alost they shound have some sort of gun that shoots bullets like mustes or a type of rifle that wound had been cool in here.
At the start if this video that cinamatic has gotta be the best cinametic in the enitre game, this oen and teh cinematic of Seth with Toten saving Sed form the Guards. And the transofmration of cinemtaic into gameplay at 3:06 is amazing!
Although throughout teh enitre game the game doe slack save points, such as puzzle part before figthing the boss of Ancient Fiend in the temple ruins place then straight away having to figth another boss, without the oppurtunity of even saving.
He would. He'd feel every last bit of pain. And even through that immense amount of pain, he can't die. You should read the novels, that explains some of what he feels. In the 1000 years of Dreams.
yeah i totally agree with u the first time i seen this intro i fought it was gonna be a game like dynasty warriors but then it turned out like this but i got the game anyways!!
