We he must have just got it wrong. by the way jolli, do you have that random level thing, is it worth it ?
No i don't, and no i dont think it is, (thats why i never bothered with it) i came across the King Poo the other day and holy shit hes a toughy, the only boss i haven't managed to beat yet.

As for the impossible mode i have still not managed to beat the land shark at level 55, 3 hits and you're dead so i think them saying level 50+ is a bit inacurrate.

HOLY SHIT! finished the game finally a few days ago and now im just going around trying to get all them achievements and MAN is IT TOUGH.

King Poo is unapproachable (currently level 52), the Kelaso Village five dragons quest is super hard (the second draon takes 800HP per turn, HOLY SHIT!) and there just seems to be brilliant bosses all around the world (sea cube snake, gold mecha robo, 4 armed robot, a dinosaur boss in the aurora ruins ... just to name a few and they are all optional stuff!).

I have to say this game has THE BEST FREAKING HARD ACHIEVEMENTS EVER and those who flamed the game because of this simply deserve a beating!. I definately see the point of the very hard achievements, they basically make you go and have a look at the entire game world which in my opinion is THE BEST thing you could do with the achievements.

MS better, Im saying better, green light Blue Dragon 2 and after all of this I just cant freaking wait for Lost Odyssey now. Amazing value for money! just amazing!

I agree alimo they need to greenlight a sequel immediately.

If they don't I'll never purchase another MS console again cause it shows they have no vision. Definitely one of the 360's best titles imo.

So you promise to swear by that ?

So what if they announce BD2 for their next console ?

I think you also need to remember that Sakaguchi may not want to do a sequel, he may want to do something new altogether.

I think given the game sold almost 300k in Japan now, micorosoft better not let it go easy. they need to build franchises over there to gain popularity. Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey deserve to at least be trilogies.

But MS have already said they are not concentrating on Japan anymore.

More importantly, how well has it sold in Europe and America ?

I actually think that if Lost Odyssey doesn't do well on the 360, Sakaguchi will look to the PS3/Wii.

IN America, the game pretty much floppped managing about 80k on the first week for a total of 100k at the end of the second week, then the game disappeared from the top 50 in the US. What a pity honestly, If a game does not have FPS and Dark stapled all over it then it plain simply doesnt sell. Europe is a much better market when it comes to RPGs so I presume the game hopefull has sold well. I think if it manages to sell about 500k-600k worldwide, we might get a sequel but time will tell.

I really, REALLY, hope that Lost odyssey does A LOT better.

I'm sure Lost Odyssey will do much better at least in the state's.

Hopefully it will push a lot more people to appreciate turn based gaming, probably not though. :P

let's hope so. Lost Odyssey does seem to better Blue Dragon that's for sure in terms of Epic-ness and its Art sure will appeal to more people than Blue Dragon' Let's cross our fingers! :D

I have no idea how Lost odyssey is doing in the Famitsu Most Wanted lists. I havent been able to find them posted lately ?

lol jolli you got me good there. If they do announce a Blue Dragon sequel I'd totally cave in and buy it :)

Well Sakaguchi did say pre-production is already taking place for Blue Dragon 2 and that he wants to do a sequel if Microsoft greenlights him to start working on one.

Yea I think Lost Odyssey's mature style gives it a pretty nice advantage over Blue Dragon especially in regards to this market. I also think thats a game Microsoft is going to throw their full marketing muscle behind in the USA. I mean Microsoft talks about wanting to make progress in the Japanese market and right now Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey and I assume anything from Mistwalker is the best chance they have of doing that.

Blue Dragon is Microsoft's most successful game in the Japanese market ever I think that alone earns it a sequel. Microsoft has to nurture franchises like this so they can gain popularity in the market. According to the end of Blue Dragon the potential for a sequel seems pretty huge. It would also be pretty interesting to see how they improve the game's engine. Blue Dragon's second wave in Japan I think would not only have greater awareness, but a much stronger opening.

Call me crazy, but I suspect Blue Dragon IF Microsoft properly markets it this Christmas will get up out of its wheelchair find a pair of working legs in the USA then manage to stand on them for a nice period of time :)

If Sakaguchi does indeed investigate the Wii and PS3 then I'm set there as well since I own both those machines :)
