I salute you good sir, you made my day with your comment. I wish there more people like you and me out there.

exactly! its almost as if people who critized the characters were never teenagers ever, like they were born adults or something

you're a smart guy, I like you. thumbs up to you.

... and thank you as well, my faith in humanity is slowly being restored. I think people on the internet think its cool to somehow bash and hate Squall for having emotional problems, as if these people were "perfect" themselves growing up. Squall's journey to becoming a warrior was to learn to be more "human", sort of…

Thank you for that

Dear Japanese people,

just passed through here to continue spreading the poison for this game. The short stories seemed interesting at first, but after the 10th or so I started skipping them. Too many of them!! all whiny sob stories!!! stopping gameplay to read and read is not fun, that's the main reason why I never read the books in the…

great! I knew I wasn't alone on this. Oh and for the record, there's some guy below saying that every Jrpg is just like you described, pure bullshit. Lost Oddissey is just a bad game, period, fanboys with no taste or standards just try to justify it. The similarities between Lost Odissey and Last Story? both made by…

Knights of pen and paper is AWESOME!! I had no idea our Brazilian neighbors had developed it.

*SIGH* No hope for Colombia. I have my fingers crossed for Argentina, Brasil and Mexico and Chile.

What I'm surprised about is the amount of discussion and controversy that this has generated. I have news for you people, ITS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS IN SOUTH AMERICA. ALWAYS. PERIOD. Every single country over here has had to deal with ridiculous pricing for videogames and consoles, since the Atari times. Its just how…

sorry mike, but I didn't make any "oooo" noises this time. The video was really boring to watch, although I admit that it could have been so because I've never played XIII 2 and I don't know japanese so I didn't know what was going on or why. But if you think about it, in the intro of FF8 you didn't know what was…

Still though, the similarities abound. They're both for niche audiences and they're both dominant on the handheld market, they both offer great products. Their price ranges are quite different, Apple wants to be the most expensive in their market, while Nintendo is doing the exact opposite. Apple wants to be cutting…

Finally, someone informed who makes an informed opinion. Its hard to find gamers like you on the comments section, I tip my hat to you sir.

Why does square keep insisting on that horrible battle system? they can't fix it no matter what they do to it, change it!!! man, FFXIII only reminds me of the most painfully boring 55 hours of my life, wasted hours I'll never get back.

Here it is, the game that started the downfall of Jrpgs, the blueprint of Final Fantasy XIII, and the reason I sold my playstation 2.... I've read many blogs from guys that, like me, are also puzzled by the fact that a lot of people liked final fantasy X yet disliked XIII, why though? they're exactly the same game…

You're wrong about the cutting edge tech. When the N64 came out it was cutting edge tech (except for the cartridges of course), and I remember how their big propaganda on magazines was how powerful and cutting edge the system was.

Just read this, and most of your doubts and questions will be answered:

After reading all these posts, it really hit me: people who enjoyed a game as bad as Lost Odissey are the kind of people who enjoys the crap that passes for jRPG these days... same people who liked Blue Dragon, Final Fantasy XIII, Xenoblade Chronicles, etc etc. I'm guessing these people didn't grow up playing Zelda 3,…
