It's meh at the moment - have yet to be rained on but the sky is bleak and it's kinda humid...

Ahhh i found it!

I was going to ask you something, Angel, but that thread wasn't suitable, would of gone right off the subject.

I saw you had Lost Odessy, I have heard that it was very good, including online play. I was going to get it but got Mass Effect instead

So i was wondering, is it worth getting it?! How good is it? and does the online play work? and does it work well?

Thats about it

Angel · 08-18-2008, 11:45 PM

Lost Odyssey is not an online game - there are no online playing options as far as I know. There may be DLC but I'm not sure...

LO is a good game - can get a little frustrating when you find yourself dying three million times and the last save point was ages ago (my current issue!) but if you are a JRPG fan then this shouldn't annoy you too much. I just hate running back and forth generating random battles just to level up enough to progress past a boss...

It's a very beautiful game - quite a few puzzles thrown in for good measure - and lots of stuff to find/earn that you may need a walkthrough to find out about. If you are a fan of JRPGs then you'll like this - just be prepared to need to spend a lot of time simply levelling up so that you can progress - even the walkthroughs get it wrong when they recommend you be a certain level. It's best to be at least one or two above the recommended level to be sure of winning.

Get it - it's worth the money and there is a lot to the story so that it's not predictable or dull

Cool thanks for that! And yes I'm a fan of JRPG's. I have played most of the Final Fantasy's and completed them and done nearly everything you possibly can in them! Both Golden Suns (very good games). So yeh i don't mind spending time training in random battles.

I must have been mistaken with the whole online thing then. But my PS2 died like a couple of months ago due to old age, i don't have a PS1 so now i can't play any Final Fantasy at all, apart from DS, which i have XII Revenant Wings and III.

I want a PS1!!

Put it this way, im a Final Fantasy fan and it was the game that FFXII should have been. I still havent completed Lost Odyssey as it is a huge game and takes a lot of time to do everything. However it is the best JRPG ive played since FFX, and i played that A LOT. Recently i havent had the time or patience to continue some parts but i will as its an excellent game.

Go down your local GAME or gamestation and pick up a 2nd hand one for about £20...or try ebay...

Either that or get a new PS2 which don't cost all that much anymore so you can play all the PSOne games as well as the PS2 ones.

LO is very reminiscent of FF in many ways and I reckon you'll enjoy it immensely.

They were selling Lost Odyssey on eBay for like £25 last time I looked; I managed to get it even cheaper since eBay sent me a coupon code/discount code and that helped bring the price down.

The main reason I like the Final Fantasy series as much as I do is because of sentimental value. I originally got into the FF games since before I was a teen (I think) and it was something I'd never seen before. Compared to today, Lost Odyssey trounces on the FF series. The ending to Lost Odyssey manages to tie up all the loose ends really nicely, too, unlike most FF games I've played.

Oh, and yeah, there's some Lost Odyssey DLC available. I believe you can buy a new dungeon area with an extra 100 achievement points, and also another item bundle which costs like 400 Microsoft Points, I think.

I have LO around here... somewhere. I'm a tolerant man, but the main character's erhm.. armour? It bugs the crap out of me!

The rule of "less armour, more skin=more protection" only apply to females. FEMALES!!!

I need to start playing it again and soon before i get tied up with other games. I really like it but when im playing it something always comes up (usually involving drinking and bars) and have to head out. So never seem to have the time to sit and play it for as long as is needed.

If you can answer this then you deserve a cookie.

ok, so i have 3 pies, and 1 of them is rasberry, unfortunatly - they all have maggots, although one of them is apple pie, the first one is rasberry and the third one is peach, but then a forth one comes along which is also apple, so i take the second pie.

I eat half of the pie, then give half to a friend and eat the remaining quartar,when i poo it out, only a half comes out. so the remaining pie inside me still has a flavour, then alliens abduct me and filter the pie out of me, they clone it 8 times,

What flavour, and how many pies are left?

With the hurricanes, hitting America, is anyone being affected, by them? We have had a lot of rain, from the last one.
