On gaf someone said it got a 9/8/8/8 from famitsu Xbox 360.
heh, coming from Famitsu 360, that's kind of bad lol.

rental confirmed if true. for the slow uptight people, I'm kidding


I just want the game out already. I'm pretty confident this game will own, well at lesat judging from all that I've read and seen(20/20 thing aside). DMC4, SSBB, and LO all in the same month? Plus College? Yup, should be interesting :p

I have a feeling this will sell WAY BETTER than Blue Dragon. Mark my words, it'll be 100k-130k First Week (Blue Dragon 80K first weej) followed by a 30-40k for the second week.
I really don't know about that... I'm tired of seeing people trashing it at 2chan because the character design looks too Korean.

Far from it maturity is not something the Japanese are keen of, why do you think Anime are so popular ?

Haha I figured you were kidding or maybe not :P, but I'm positive 80% of the people interested in this game now wont end up getting it anyway because reviews will easily sway their decision and this game is destined to get crapped on in reviews. I'll look at reviews, but only just to see what they say. Ultimately their opinions wont matter to me (unless they say what I want to hear hahah) this game was a guaranteed purchase the moment it was announced :)

heh you already know me :) I give the finger to any review I don't like when it comes to a game I'm interested in.

If I myself can't find the reasons for why I shouldn't purchase a game then its still a purchase. I was originally excited about 99 nights when I thought the story would be great, but then I found out how disjointed it all was and that I expected it to be a much different game than it really was so I ended up not getting it. So regardless of what a reviewer says about lost odyssey and I KNOW its going to get shit on.

random battles
anime cliches
Old tired game mechanics
Bad story (its anime stuff and not final fantasy)
Non interesting characters (not final fantasy)
Bad pacing
Too many damn discs packed full of too many cutscenes

1up review gives it no higher than a 7.5
gamespot 7.0 (perhaps even a 6 Enchanted Arms will have a better score)
IGN 81
Gamesradar 90
Teamxbox 83
Gamespy 4.5/5
Gamepro 5/5
Gameinformer 92
Eurogamer 6
Edge 5

Will evntually average out with an overall metacritic of 75-79

Watch me be right :)

Time to wait till next week for the Japanese Gafer's impressions. Hopefully, it's all good. Sucks DCharlie was banned. I was looking forward to seeing his pictures. He took some real good ones for Blue Dragon back when it was released. Oh well, good thing we still have Blim

In other news
- battle tempo is extremely agreeable

- boss fights are tough but if you polish your tactics, they are fun

- Kaim's existence in the story is, according to Shigematsu's writing, very deep and well crafted. A virtuous story, as Sakaguchi also said

- event scenes progress with beautiful graphics, impressive

- battles have a noticeable effect on your characters, which develop in an enjoyable way

- it's a good RPG for adults to play and take lots of time playing through

- scenario is very "bitter"

- 4 DVDs with amazing video and beautiful music

- it's a shame about frequent loading and the poor lip-syncing (cause it was synced for the USA voice acting haha)

heh, pretty funny to hear them complaining about the lip-syncing. Us folks in the west have had to deal with that kind of stuff for years when it came to playing their games. Oh how the tables have turned!

Also, buy it or go fly off a cliff

GZ: I hear you've been playing Mass Effect lately, how has that affected your schedule so far?

Hironobu: What? Oh sorry, as you can see I'm playing right now. Yeah, I've already told Microsoft I'm canceling all the other games I had planned. GOD DAMN THRESHER MAW!! BURN IN HELL YOU CENTIPEDE!

GZ: How are your reactions to how Blue Dragon was recei- Dude! Dude! Use the canon, use the canon, you're gonna crash!

Hiro: Goddammit don't question me! I know what I'm doing!

GZ: Dude you're playing on easy mode, I beat this twice on hard.

Hiro: Shut up! Shut up! YES! Sucka MY Guchi bitch! Phew. God I love this game. BioWare FTW!

Anyone know about this thing with the game being 20-25 hours long? How can it be that long if they apparently have twenty hours of cutscenes?

LOL I don't buy that 20 hour worth of cutscenes crap lol. That was a mistake. Its 8 I think with one hour being ingame? Or was it 5? I forgot.

4 discs? 20-25 hours long? Oh come on... no way not if the person even remotely attempts to appreciate what is there in the game. If someone rushes their way through the game? A huge waste, but then maybe its possible like that :)
