So many people have been saying " oh god, can't wait till Blue Dragon comes out" and "Blue Dragons gonna be awesome". I'm like "what"!?! It looks the worst game ever! One guy even said: "Which should I buy Blue Dragon or BioShock?" I MEAN, COME ON!?!?!?! SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!

I didn't care for the demo of Blue Dragon at all. I really didn't have interest in it before the demo, and the demo did nothing to change my mind. I'll probably try it someday, maybe when it's much cheaper, but for now I have no interest.

hype? COD4, Halo3, and Mass Effect have hype... not Blue Dragon. Unless I'm totally missing something.

Blue Dragon is not the kind of game that appeals to everyone. It is a traditional RPG for people who like traditional RPG's of a Japanese flavor. I personally grew up playing these kind of RPG's and could not get enough of them back in the days of the NES and SNES. Blue Dragon is diamond in the rough for those of us who like traditional RPG's.

Yea those 77 people are not hyping the game up. They are talking about how crappy the game was. Where are you seeing all this hype?

Dude, it's a freakin matter of opinion. I would take Blue Dragon over Bioshock anyday? Why you ask? Cuz I personally prefer RPGs over any shooter out there. I'm not saying Bishock is a bad game either. I loved the demo and beat it numerous times. It's personal preference. If you don't like Blue Dragon then that's good. No need to post about it.

BD is amazing, its stolen me away from bioshock, it hits back ot the old PS and Nintendo RPG days, which is why i like it.

I am not too keen on the new Jrpg, but this hits it for me :D

if you like old style rpgs, then go and get it. If not, then maybe its not your taste ;) i hated the demo but i got it, and i have loved it :D

The demo just throws you in, and tbh how many good rpg demos are out in the world :roll:

It's clearly not targeted to the run'n'gun crew, and with its style it wont make any "new" friends (but I also think they wanted it that way), as it pretty much a kinda old-schools rpg.

Blue Dragon is an absolute masterpiece. The characters, the gameplay, the graphics, and the music is very well done. I am so glad I didn't listen to negativity and I went with my gut feeling on this one. I really would have missed out on an outstanding gaming experience.

How does this look dreadful btw?

Lost Odyssey looks great. but random encounters and gameplay even more old-school than Blue Dragon will hold it back from being a success.
