Blue Dragon (Multi-Language)

Tons of interesting character. Fun and the plot is suitable for kids!

Having played through the Asian version of the game (Japanese voice acting, English text), I am happy to say that this game lives up to its pedigree. Quite simply this is the best Japanese console RPG to be released this year (yes it\'s even better than FFXII which is no small feat). The graphics are superb which is a given. Uematsu\'s music is great and should be familiar to Final Fantasy fans everywhere. The story whilst being traditional JRPG fare (little kids saving the world) is well executed with great character development and good dialogue. The Japanese voice acting is superb (not sure about the English voice acting off course) and the localization is good as well. The combat system is where this game really shines though. Firstly there are no random battles (yay). Secondly there are a number of cool ways you can interact with enemies in the field. Thirdly the Shadow job system is not only well executed but extremely flexible, allowing you to mix and match a selection of skills to meet your strategy. Couple this with a play time of at least 35 hours and you have a must have Xbox 360 or for that matter general gaming purchase. Don\'t miss out on this title amid all the higher profile releases this spring :).

i bought this game and i expect it to be great but unfortuantly it\'s seriously boring and the gamplay is so repeated you will do the same attack and the magic for all the characters you can download the demo first it\'s available in the US server in Xbox Live
the game realy so bad and i\'m so upset i spent this much for unworth game, please download the demo first or you will regret it.

If you like JRPG\'s buy this, no excuses!

Great chracters, story and an enjoyable combat system. Sound in the game is of a high quality with an excellent score, but it\'s also the only let down.

Boss fights are accompanied (for some strange and annoying reason) cheesy-80\'s-spandex-style rock music. The kind of thing you would normally associate with Sega, though not quite as bad. After 15 hours of play, I can ignore it now, but yet I wonder what the developers were thinking.

As a veteran japanese RPG-freak I am overwhelmed by how good this game is. The graphics are almost comparable to Gears of Wars in terms of excellence and the world is as full of details as a Shenmue was back in the days with the difference of playing an epic, huge, lenghty RPG. There is really nothing bad to say about Blue Dragon, it is an almost perfect game and by far, far, far the most beautiful jp. RPG ever out there(which by now doesn\'t say that much because of course it is the one and only out there if you forget about enchanted arms for a moment and not counting Oblivion as it is a western RPG). Whoever is as lucky as me and owns a japanese 360 and likes jp. RPGs must get it, all others still will have to suffer and wait for the US version. Overall, by far the best 360 game so far(which is due to my general dislike of western games, I do play them though). Spent all my free time with it, haven\'t been hooked like this for ages on any game. WORD!
