IMO FFXII was the worst FF in the series, thats not saying its a bad game, I just didn't like the way it plays.

I liked FFXII better, but it was my favorite Final Fantasy so i'm partial to it. You can't go wrong with either

I would choose LO only cause I played XII for an hour and a half and was bored out of my mind.

Lost Odyssey has a more gripping story, and it's more fun. However, Final Fantasy XII is strangely more addictive.

if you haven't played FF12, you've missed one of the best rpgs last gen. the story isn't all that but everything else is nothing short of remarkable. now LO is the opposite, it has a great story but everything else is not so great.

I havent played alot of FF games only 8, 10 but 12 was simply beautiful. Even though its almost 2 yrs old its a superior game than LO in all aspects.

Lost Odyssey. The story and characters in that game were likeable. FInal Fantasy 12 was the worst FF IMO.

Both great games. Get one now, and the other later. I can't choose between them, I thought FFXII was a rejuvenation that the series really needed, and LO is just a great old-school RPG with fantastic writing.

I happily played through Lost Odyssey and forced myself through most of FFXII, so I'd say Lost Odyssey. I quite liked the skills system in Lost Odyssey, reminded me of Final Fantasy IX.

FFXII, was aweful. The only reason I finished it was because Balthier held everything together.

LO>FFXII simply because LO reminds me of FFX.

LO was just a fantastic game. When it came out I was totally engrossed in it. The best RPG that I have played in a very long time, may going all the way back to BG2.

When it comes to RPG's I play them for the story, and the escapism feeling of being in a different world, and seeing new things and people, and LO had that in spades. All the characters are really well developed, and the writing is top notch. The thousand years of dream is also a really fantasic add in to the game.

FFXII i didnt finish. I'm sorry to say, I really thought the whole thing was weak. IMO it's nowhere near the level of excellence you usually come to expect from Square in a main FF game.

I vote FFXII but you can't go wrong with either.

Keep in mind you could get FFXII for probably $15 now, so both might be an option. Or Buy FFXII now and if Lost Odyssey goes down in price get that when it does maybe.
