According to the standards that have been set for the PS3 and the game scores it gets. And considering the Fact that PS3 owners are notoriously known for being jRPG lovers.

You would think that they would be running out to get a 360 now seeing that Lost Odyssey why not AAA but still a dam good AA title.

It's looking like Lost Odyssey is a dam good jRPG for the 360.

So riddle me this question is the 360 WORTHY now? Being the 360 has cleary made huge strides in the RPG market. And have some decent jrpg's now also.

So are you PS3 fans tempted to get a 360 now. I mean there is nothing worth noting for the PS3 and jrpg's until atleast 09 for FF.

Pretty good score. I have to admit, the 360 looks like the better console for RPG's at the moment.

LO was never hypes as a system seller or a AAA game. But it has lived up to a very good AA title like it was hyped.

Not bad if you ask me for the 360 just getting it's feet wet for jRPG's

Lost Odysee?? Wtf? I love my JRPG but i'm not interested

Besides, IGNis probably the most leniant credible source. 8.2 isn't anything special. Maybe if it were in the 9s I would wish i could play it, but still wouldnt want to buy a 360

Not even if M$ paid me to own a 360 there is no way I would own one. I have a PS3 and maybe later when the hype of the Wii dies down I may get a Wii. I have enough PC's that can play most games but chose not to even try anymore because of the various conflicts that can pop up or I don't care to search the web for different drivers for hardware to make a game work well.

Different reviewer.

Not that this matters, if you play JRPGs you wouldn't take any of these review sites to heart.

First of all, you forget that only GS scores count. ANd from what I read in the IGN review, that 8.2 is being kind. Considering RPGs are about the story and IGN gave the "presentation" (which includes story) a 6.5. I expect GS will flop this game accordingly.

I'm really looking forward to this game but I think most JRPG without 360s fans are going to wait for more JRPGs like infinite undiscovery and those other two games from ATLUS before making their purchase.

I bet you guys one thing!!! If this game would be called Final Fantasy: The Lost Oddusey than it would sell in the millions and would have gotten a better score. Everything mostly sells better if it has a name to it.

Just like Halo 3!! If it was called some other game and had another dude insted of Master Chief in it....do you guys think it would sold so much? No!!

Same goes to Super Mario Galaxy. If it was called Super Rudy the Fox Galaxy, and insted of Mario it would have been Rudy the fox it would been goty or sold so many.

I'm really sure of it. But there are always exeptions so I could be wrong with SMG.

It scored an 8.2 at the main site and a 8.0 at the AU site.

Again, not that it matters for JRPGs.

So because one JRPG score decent it must mean the 360 is worthy :?

I say 360 should just stick yo WRPG's and leave the generic snorfest JRPG's on the ps3.

Wow that totally didn't deserve an AAA whatsoever. It was lackluster at best, good job GS is around to give it the score it deserves. although I would of given it an 6.0.

It's looking like Lost Odyssey is a dam good jRPG for the 360.

So riddle me this question is the 360 WORTHY now? Being the 360 has cleary made huge strides in the RPG market. And have some decent jrpg's now also.

So are you PS3 fans tempted to get a 360 now. I mean there is nothing worth noting for the PS3 and jrpg's until atleast 09 for FF.

I think it was hyped A here at GS.

Actually, the original hype for this game was AAA. The hype died with each gameplay vid that was shown though so who knows what it is now...

Anyway, if I didn't own a 360 I wouldn't buy one for this game. Eternal Sonata is the only great rpg on the 360. For PS3 only owners, White Knight Chronicles and FF XIII are still the best looking JRPG's on the horizon, and well worth waiting for. Meanwhile, the PS3 is still offering plenty of other variety. I'm highly excited for FF XIII and Versus... but I'm even more eager to find out how soon Disgaea 3 and White Knight Chronicles will hit American shores. PS3'ers are in for a treat when Eternal Sonata hits this Spring also.

Please stop hyping this game up after this review, it is going to get destroyed by gamespot, and every other site. Destroyed. Anyone who read the review, would know this. Terrible Story, Framerate problems, Long loads, unlikeable characters, very generic gameplay (but very fun). This will probably be the highest score it gets. Probably be like Folklore, amazing game, poor presentation.

No one is hyping this game up but fakeboys, people are just saying they're looking forward to playing it.

Blue Dragon didnt't get destroyed, it has a 7.7 average, which is still considered good.
