I've finally received my Lost Odyssey copy yesterday (#@$# French post) and quickly went to the point where DjMizuhara's console died so that I could record some new videos. Here is the first one, showing some real gameplay with fights, with of course more to come.
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Days ago)
Driftwood @Loakum: enjoy, the one Sony sent us will be there on launch day. Coverage will follow asap. (3 Days ago)

I love that game!!
Thanx for your job.
this games is gonna be crazy....
i'm already in love with it and the story
so when it's state side here i will be getting it...
thanks for all the Vidzz...
The battle music in this game is great, you get this nice vibe from it, and the cut scenes as usual are beautifully done. (Lol @ Jansen's pose at the end of the video)
I wonder if we'll see Kelolons in every Mistwalker game, they're cute and funny.
Blim, thx, man
Everything about this game is average at best! I bet Blue Dragon is more fun than this.
Of course being a huge RPG and Xbox 360 fan my hopes are that eventually the game will turn out to be a quite stellar one!
It's a matter of perspective. For me FF12 ranks as one of the most unmemorable FFs ever made. I couldn't stand playing that game.

Regarding your "everything about this game looks average at best" comment I think you are trying way too hard. That comment alone shows you don't really have any remote interest in this game so I think you would've been better not adding this part
NOT DIABLO SHIT like FF12
You can love the trailers..not the game. You can't love a game before you play it or before it comes out.

Now if you are happy with playing everything as a shooter then that fine, but some of us want something different from our games.
So ME didn't set any standard IMO.
As for FF12 like many have mentioned it was a borefest, I liked the world design, but the story and combat was horrible, I hear FF13 is going back to its roots with turn based combat, so I guess thats taking a step back too huh ?
Im all for that :D

mass effect is more of a rpg than any square game since you actually play it as a character that has an influence on the game world rather than just going from turnbased fight to the next cutsene without having any ability to change the plot in any way.
I love j-rpgs but im not sure if they should be called rpgs at all.
Lost Odyssey is a traditional jrpg, turn based combat, great graphics, great art-direction, awesome soundtrack, emotional/dramatic story, decent at times and nice at times animations (The drunken Jansen´s secuence shows some AWESOME animations in fact)
I would like to see that persons, who complain about the turn based combat in lost odyssey... What they will say about FFXIII when it comes out? (If combat is turn based too in FFXIII of course) ¬¬
but i hope story will be great
anyway, now we have two Final Fantasy series - LO and FF itself. I think it is very positive
I don't know why LO should be a step back in the RPG genre. The gameplay of ego-shooters is the same it was ten years ago, but Crysis or HL2 wouldn't be considered as a step back. I like the old JRPG gameplay. And it's refined and polished with a few more options (like Blue Dragon was).
There is a difference between western RPGs and japanese RPGs. The japanese first and foremost want to be entertained by a brilliant story, whereas we want to see good graphics and much influence on the course of the game (which often results in irrelevance).
