Pros: Good Graphics, Great Story, Simply but Fun Battle System
Cons: Slowdown, Loading Times

Pros: Really great game with a deep moving story
Cons: Graphical problems there are plenty, villian is a bit lame.
Summary: I got Lost Odyssey about a year ago but I didn't jump right into it. I got bum by FFXIII being anything other than great, and even though I did try I could not get through the Last Remnant. But I eventually gave this game a try, wow all I can say is this ... read more

Cons: Voice acting in some spots, may be too familiar for some people

Pros: Unique battle system, good storyline, short loading times
Cons: The dreams can start to get annoying at times.

Pros: Ring system in combat, interesting story and use of dream system, decent graphics, responsive controls
Cons: Fixed camera, lackluster sound and music, same old JRPG gameplay mechanics, no world map

Pros: Interesting story elements, great cutscenes.
Cons: Bad camera, choppy framerate.
Summary: If Lost Odyssey—the latest Xbox 360 Role-Playing Game (RPG) from Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi’s Mistwalker Studios—proves anything, it’s that you can make pretty role-playing games for modern consoles, but the game mechanics are still mired ... read more
