My first major blunder of the new year involved overwriting my completed file on Lost Odyssey for XBOX360 with a very feeble new game plus file. The game happens to be one of my favorite rpgs boasting a great story, amazing voice work, an even more impressive score, and a classic battle system with just enough variation to be interesting. As such, Its not such a terrible task to play back through it.
Those familiar with Mistwalker, who published the game, know that much of the staff is made of the old squaresoft veterans with Uematsu and Nomura both contributing on the game. Mistwalker also makes the enviroments in its RPGs very interactive. Busting up old wreckage on a beach replaces the traditional treasure chest for much of the game.
I had downloaded some bonus XBL content just before my saving mistake. However to access what i have downloaded is nearly impossible at the beginning of the story though. Since i have such a long road ahead of me again im going to probably play through with my fiancee. She had come in about half way and really like the characters and their interaction so she would like to see the whole story. Well heres to 50 hours of JRPGING.
