blitzkid1
it would be wonderful for ff to score AAA, i have a ps3.
and eternal sonata was on the 360 with an 8.5
LO is alot better than ES.....but it didnt even score an 8LO got an A, theres absolutly no reason for this to get higher, this looks worse than LO aswelltherealmcc0yLost Odyssey was a good game and deserved an 8.5 personally or atleast an 8.0.
[QUOTE="therealmcc0y"]LO got an A, theres absolutly no reason for this to get higher, this looks worse than LO aswellDante2710you havent play LO....
Ive heard and read great things about LO
I think an easy AAA, because it tries new things never seen in a JRPG before, looks amazing and very freshkostmpekirNO Way.
The latest build seems tight and it's actually coming sooner then I expected but so far so good.
If the game plays as good as it looks from the videos then a AA should be easy but who the heck knows anymore with JRPG's when L.O., the best JRPG this gen gets scored A. :?
I'm looking forward to it and it seems all of a sudden, September is going to be a great VG month with I.U., V.P. 2, Star Wars Unleashed & Left for Dead. :D

I would predict AA, but JRPG scores around here are messed up. Lost Odyssey, the best JRPG so far this gen in my opinion, only got a 7.5, when it was deserving of 8 - 8.5. It tried to be an old school JRPG, and got graded down for it. The double standards here at Gamespot never fail to astound me. When Mario goes old school, he get's praised for it (New Super Mario Bros,) but Lost Odyssey is punished for it, even though it is exactly the type of title I wanted. If you like old school JRPGs such as the earlier Final Fantasy games (before 11) then you'll love Lost Odyssey no matter what the review says.
So therfore, I reckon this game will get A, even though it might be deserving of AA.

I think a solid AA from what I've seen. My only complaint is the va, especially because they feel the need to yell out the attack.
Btw, what is the innovation? I've only seen the two vids.

lol @ your sig... that "how do I look" thread was epic :D
becuase of the stagnation of the JRPG genre.FF is the best jrpg
any jrpg on the 360 will never score anything above A status :D
Dante2710
you should read up on it. It is a seamless world. So eevrything happens in realtime without loading. Environments and some of your five senses are major gameplay elements. There are more I just gave you a cheap summary of it.I think a solid AA from what I've seen. My only complaint is the va, especially because they feel the need to yell out the attack.

:lol: yup, good to see another fellow OT`er in here :PAside from great voice acting and somewhat interesting characters, I actually think LO got the score it deserved. I think far too many have way too high expectations from the man that created FF(and far too many pats on the back). Far too many have acted like Mystwalker was going to be the 2nd coming of Jesus for RPG's or something. Blue Dragon and LO were average at best and they lost points for more than being just old school. (ie: nothing like being ripped out of what could have been a very emotional experience by a mini game!)
Tri-Ace has it's own following of loyal customers, I'm one of them and I've been following this game since it's first trailer, but from what I've seen thus far, I'll go out on a limb and expect an A at best. The story seems shallow, the voice acting seems a bit questionable and I wouldn't mind seeing the lips move in sync with the voices.
High - 8.0
Low 7.0
It's going to fall between those numbers. I'm sensing a lot of people are going to complain about the voice acting. From what I've heard, it's cringe-inducing.
Well the English voices seem to have been dubbed over in the video, all the combat text is in Japanese. It's also way too early to judge the story.Aside from great voice acting and somewhat interesting characters, I actually think LO got the score it deserved.

Terami
This is one of the most ambitious JRPGs in recent memory, so a lot can go wrong. But in tri-Ace I trust!

it would be wonderful for ff to score AAA, i have a ps3.
and eternal sonata was on the 360 with an 8.5
If ES got a 8.5, Lost Odessy should have scored 9.0. Love em both but LO was much better.Does anyone remember the game Radiata Stories made by Square Enix (Tri Ace team)?
The way they talk about the ideas reminds me of the game. I wonder whats gonna be so innovative about it. The only thing I see that is innovative is the fact that your desicions make an impact on the gameplay.
Anyway I think it will be a AA solid game. I wish that would finish this ( they might have finshed since it has a Sept 2 release date) and just get to SO 4 to tell you the truth. 8)
Note: I will also be purchansing a 360 (Sept ,2) for the game so it better be good, otherwise its back to the store.:D
I dunno if back to the store is a good thing with L.O. to play and T.o.V. coming along very nicely.Does anyone remember the game Radiata Stories made by Square Enix (Tri Ace team)?

It's more of a cross between Star Ocean and Valkyrie Profile in an open ended seamless world.
Situational Battles
As players are faced with a variety of episodic situational battles, they will discover that they may have to try various methods to defeat the enemy, where the most obvious solution is rarely the right move. Players can assemble parties from a pool of 18 characters, choosing those with the best combination of abilities for the job. Snipe distant enemies with the help of a bow-wielding ally or skilled magic user. Based on each player's decisions, the intricate environments will offer a variety of experiences, presented in a way never before seen in RPGs.
I don't see the game getting getting AA. probably the highest will be 7.0 at gs.istreakforfoodDo you know anything about the game though, or just basing that on one trailer?

I'm not bashing the game. I can only go by with that one trailer atm. Looking at it just didn't sit right me. It's my opinion on what the score it will get. I hope I'm wrong and ends up scoring higher than I predicted.
I'm pretty sure I'm not informed as you. Just been reading articles and info mostly posted here.
edit: I have played some of the tri-ace games. My favorite game from them has to be Star Ocean: Second Story. Honestly I'm not trying to bash the game.
I'm hyping this and Tales of Vesperia both at A+ just to be safe. But from what I've seen, AA for both.
Lost Odyssey should've been a AA title as well.

I agree, it's too early to judge the story, but all I said was that it seems shallow.(so far) We don't know enough about it yet. Don't take my impression wrong, I think it's going to be a must buy for RPG fans. I just don't think it will score high, like so many other JRPG's.Please Log In to post.
