Lost Odyssey (Xbox 360) Official Japanese Release Thread

The 3rd part was awesome.

No frame rate issues, no pop ups, minimal loading so far.

The council was a bit empty though, lifeless... it's Jibral Castle (BD) all over again. :lol

Is there a lot of cities in this game? That's what I love best about most RPGs, because from the videos it looks like it's all about the battling.

I chopped all the loading screens out of the videos...loading time times on averge of 6 seconds, which isn't all the bad at all.

I've got 2 or 3 video going up later on today, once I get home from work.

Great job with the videos, makes the 3 month a wait a little more bearable :p

So. Hows the game?

To be completely honest, I just haven't gotten far enough into the game to really give an impression. So far, I've had like 8 battles and walked around the city talking to a bunch of people. So I haven't really done too much, the game is visual stunning and so far the story is pretty interesting. I'd rather keep my comments to a minimum, until I get a little further in.

fair enough

But I must confess - judging from the videos, this game looks awesome; really, really awesome.

Cool Cool. Keep us updated as you get further along. And thanks for the vids!

I haven't seen texture pop in the first part, does that mean they chose longer load times over loading in game?

The longer load screen I've seen on this vids didn't make even four seconds. I guess there will be longer load times anywhere else, but from what we've seen there, it won't be that annoying as some people guessed before.
 
wow, looks fantastic!

is there any pictures of the dvd boxset? i've read in other message boards that LO comes in a DVD boxset like a DVD movie collector's edition.
 
The first city alone looks bigger than all of BD's cities put together. :D

The game looks really polished and not rushed as some worried.

Now I want impressions, and part 5. :p

9/10 NeoGAFfers don't understand statistics. The other 3/10 don't care.
Thanks for the video's guys, I love the music in this game.

Good choice, imo. Mass Effect's pop-in looks ridiculous.

Part 5, the ending was hilarious, I laughed.

The whole thing was great, the voice acting is superb. The one thing I hated about FFX was the voice acting.

Plus, the sound, not just the music, is really good.
 
The artist for this series is incredible, I absolutely LOVED Vagabond. I'm slightly dissapointed though, apart from Seth and Kaim, I am really not digging the art design for some of the characters :(

I hope we won't get a shitty case like Blue Dragon's one with piled disks. And that box cover is much better than the european and US cover.

Well that pretty much confirms the soundtrack will be fucking awesome.

Yes, the music track in the combat sounded gorgeous.

Dont like the heihachi-esque general much at all but everything else, and main characters specially, look really nice. And i liked the first dream/nightmare cutscene, the 1st person perspective.

Btw, so Jensen seems like a well rounded funny character without becoming an idiot, and overall the jokes are at least decent enough?

edit: i may end up getting the japanese version when it gets cheaper just for the box alone. I still have the blue dragon silver one, nicer than the us/pal ones.

is the game on 2 DVDs are 4? because if its 4, why there are no holes in the center for the remaining 2 DVDs. unless 2 on top of each other?

I imagine the holes for disks 2 & 4 are on the sides that we cannot see.

The other 2 DVDs are on the other side of each green flaps.
