An enticing story, but the graphics and animation could be better. Still a great game.

User Rating: 8.5 | Lost Odyssey X360
Lost Odyssey is a fantastic game, and it is one of the best 360 RPGs. In my opinion, it contends with Oblivion, but the two games are of a different genre of RPG. From the makers of the Final Fantasy series comes a game that might as well be in there. The game starts out in a mixture of CGI/in-game cinemas showing a massive battle between the countries of Uhra and Gohtza. The tides of battle constantly shift, the soldiers of Uhra getting decimated, then siege engines enter. A massive group of soldiers from Uhra die, and you are finally introduced to the protagonist, Kaim. He's standing alone, taking out Gohtza single handedly. Then a meteor falls, and kills everyone. Small spoiler, but doesn't affect the story. Kaim lives, and we soon learn that he is immortal, wandering the earth for all eternity, which is a gift and curse, yada, yada, yada. He looks like an American Eagle pretty boy, and the first companion, the female Seth Balmore looks tougher than Kaim. The only thing redeeming this game from the worst character ever is that Kaim has the deep voice of a BAMF. Enough about complaints though. Lost Odyssey's story quickly evolves, exposing a possible overthrow of Uhra's government, and a journey of a lifetime for Kaim (which has already happened hundreds of times.) Along the way you meet Kaim's family, more immortals, and new friends as you struggle to expose evil in a massive war, all the while restoring Seth and Kaim's memories. All in all, I highly recommend the game.
