I don't know about you, but Blue Dragon was one of the best games of 2007. In fact it was in
my opinion the BEST game of 2007.
Blue Dragon felt like a warm comfort blanket.
I had been playing a lot of games all at the same time. But once I got my hands on Blue
Dragon I played it from start to finish without anything taking its place.
Its nice to have a game that is not only and epic story but can hold your attention for 40+
hours. Blue Dragon was that for me. It was like coming home, to a turn based house, in
Japan, where everyone speaks english.
And god willing and jesus tarry it will be that way again.
I'm only two or three hours in, as I haven't had a lot of time to devote to it. I'm really enjoying it, except for Shu's constant reassertion of the fact that he "won't give up". We get it little buddy, you're persistent.
@ Kyo Nanbu: I'm an old-school RPG fan and I didn't like what I saw. I only played the demo, but the characters turned me off so much I wouldn't buy it. I felt like I was playing Dragon Quest when it came to battles and shit.
Admittedly I'm more of a FF fan, and Lost Odyssey looks more like that series. I'm quite excited for it.
Yeah on the recommendations of many, this will be one game I pick up. I haven't had a great RPG to play in awhile. Well besides Mass Effect but I'm aching to sink 60 hours into another game. I have a disease.

Sadly it was released on a console mostly known for shooters and during an era where no sexy bishies equals no sale for most people.
The game was crazy fun.
Admittedly I'm more of a FF fan, and Lost Odyssey looks more like that series. I'm quite excited for it.
