LostOdyssey. I rented this game earlier this evening and I seriously felt like I was sitting through a seminar on vacuum cleaners within an hour of playing. I gave it a shot, the battle system was ok, but the story. . . .OMG the story and characters are horrible! Who else has played this game and does anyone hate it as I do?

I thought the characters and music were the best part of the game.

I actually started playing Lost on the Xbox 360 - eek, not enjoying it one bit. So far, it's been my worst game I've played. Actually, wait... I take that back - Blacksite Area 51 takes the cake for the worst game I've played this year.

Yeah, RPGs seem rather flat this gen. Even the mediocre ones from last gen are better than most this gen.

It's a JRPG, it takes more than one evening to get going.

It came with my Xbox360 as part of a deal and I agree, Lost Odyssey is not a very good JRPG. It has some pretty interesting sections but overall it's far too repetitive.

Other than the attrociously long load times going into battle I enjoy the game. Combat is a bit slow but I think the characters and the story are pretty good. The plot seems a bit paper thin at times but I find I actually want to know more about the main character's past.

Oh jesus christ

Ok Lemmings don't get mad that he had an opinion on the game and bash good PS3 games.

Anyway I loved Lost Odyssey. The story was fun, love the music and characters, and the game just had this nice oldschool jRPG charm to it.

Now as for worst game this gen it has to be Lair or Haze or Hour of Victory

or if we really want to get on Mistwalker.....Blue Dragon...what a stinker.

If you thought the story and characters where bad, you obviously didn't play it very much. Lost Odyssey is definatly the most underrated game on Xbox 360 and if you dont like it you can go to hell.

I like the cast of characters except for Kaim's grandkids and the villain. As for the plot it was good until you reach disc 2. The battle system could of been better. On the other hand though the short stories were well written, sound track was great and it was better than Blue Dragon IMO.

I like LO. I thought it was a good game. I liked the characters as well. I thought the developer/s did a nice job giving the characters personality for example Jansen.

how come no one's mentioning shovelware as the worst game this gen?

I'm just sayin'....

Oh and I don't really have an opinion on worst but biggest letdown for me this gen had to have been Battlefield: Bad Company. they might as well call it **prepare for lack of humor** Battlefield: Glitch Company. cuz srsly I've seen headshots that GO THROUGH people's heads on multiplayer(PS3 Version)

The crappiest thing about LO is it takes soooo long for it to get intersting. I'm on the 3rd disc and it has finally got cool. A game should not take this long to get good. I had to force myself to pick it up again.

Doesn't really kick in properly for the first 5 or 6 hours, most of disk 1 is exceptionally slow going.

You people really need to play games like Yaris or Vampire Rain to get a real sense of what a terrible game really is. :D

Maybe its a trade-off... not as many good RPGs out yet, but we got one of the best ones with Mass Effect.

And if you dont like Mass Effect you can GO TO H.... Ok, just kidding there. I am still amazed that guy said that. :)

I'll disagree with you and say that Lost Odyssey was rated exactly where it should be. Average.

Unfortunately not. When I say worst game in a long time, I mean several months; it was more of a personal metric on time. The last really bad game I played was Gears of War about a year ago. I KNOW, please don't kill me Lemmings! I just thought it was a very lame game with good graphics and ok gameplay.

I own it and best RPG so far this genDarkslayer16

Agreed. It's not one of the "worst games", because it didn't get some of the worst reviews. It's just not for you. I thought the story and character's were very well done. It got quite emotional, too, but you didn't really give it a chance, seeing you just got it today...

It sounds like you just don't like great games.

I thought that the characters were very good, and if you take the time to read the dreams, those are also little neat stories, that add to the overall world. Except, Cooke and Mack. I dislike them greatly and their story arch was used and re-used again and again.

The Dreams (so far) are honestly very entertaining. Although they are coming up a little too frequent for my tastes right now. I'm always like "man another one..." but they end up being enjoying to read.
