Great RPG for the 360

The game was fun and if you wanted to do everything correctly and unlock most of the achievements you'll be spending a good amount of time in the game. The game couldn't done without the little yellow dude he's just annoying throughout the game.

Blue Dragon - Xbox 360

it's easy to see why blue dragon is the best selling xbox 360 game in japan

blue dragon may not be selling as well here n the states as it is in japan but once you play it you'll see why japanese gamers like it so much. it even doesa pretty good job standing up against final fantasy, which was created by the same man who made blue dragon. eventhough it doesn't reinvent the japanese role playing game it does do a great job at being fun by feeling both familiar yet fresh at the same time. the battle system is turned based but luckily there are no random battles and bause of that you can sneak u on your opponent and surprise him from behind to gain an advantage in battle. also there are no weapons to buy because you use your shadows which manifest into a different creature for each character to fight with. during battles you can have characters either on the front line where they both cause and recieve more damage, or have characters with less defense in the back casting spells and taking less damage but at the cost of causing less damage through melee attacks, pretty much like the 1st 6 final fantasy games. the shadows that your party members have can switch between nine different classes on the fly and as each character earns mor "sp" or shadow points their shadow's class increases and they even gain new skills as their rank in one class icreases enough. some skills you can use on th field to do things that range from throwing a bomb at an enemy that stuns them so you can attack 1st after engaging them in battle to things like defeating weaker enimes just by touching them to things like turning yourself invisible to avoid combat all together. the cool thing is that when you gain a skill you can switch to another class and equip the skill you just learned from the other class providing you with lots of options as to how your party members fight in battle. also the music is awesome and the characters all have their own unique personalities.

Typical Japanese RPG

The game is a nice looking game. I found that the story was all over the place though. It was hard to follow. The fighting system was your typical RPG flare with a little bit of coolness with your "shadow" doing the moves. Good traditional Japanese RPG. Maybe too easy for hardcore players.

Not good enough? It lookes like final fantasy?

Over all this is a good arcade style role play. Lots of guys from final fantasy and lots of different gamestyles and test to complete. I say pick it up, it should give many hours of gaming enjoyment if you havent played final fantasy yet. Ok game
