funny how the exact points of why KH was an fucking awesome rpg are now coming back as to why lost odyssey looks disappointing.
I play games for story content, so I don't care how it plays half the time, I'm prolly the only guy in the world that seriously wouldn't mind the great evil of an interactive movie that games are indanger of becoming.
Most japanophiles wants to suck off Toriyama and go into some form of an epileptic fit if you dare say anything negative about his 'artwork' so I'm fairly certain that Microsoft know what there doing at this point. Whilst Japan is an important market in the world of electronics it is a FUCKING hard egg to break into, especially for some gajun.
Lost Odyssey looks like a fun RPG, sure it's one man army mode, but if you seriously have a compliant about that then you need to look at every game made in around the last 25 years. It's a fantasy game, If you want realism go play BubbleBobble.
I really dislike Toriyama so I'll prolly avoid Dragonball Z ... sorry Blue Dragon, simply because I'm a stuborn cunt.
To call Sakiguchi the only talented member of Squaresoft team is somewhat of a leap of imagination, there are many talented individuals within the company, Nomura for example. However , I agree that almost none of them had his vision of what would make a great game, he wasn't a smart business man and that is what signalled his end at Square-Enix, with the Titanic The Spirit Within the final nail in the coffin.
What's sad is that the man, wanted to make games and make good games and he got frozen out by the company, he almost single handedly saved.
In a game industry of EA's, THQ's and Square-Enix's I as gamer am increasingly concerned that the value that big companies put into their games is waining. It's more important to buy a franchinse than to make a BETTER game than the competitor.
Sakiguchi hasn't let me down yet, time will tell.

those are the only two pics you have?
you went to the TGS and came back with a cheesy looking model and some blurry glare ridden PS hardware?
please tell me you have something better then that. You went to the friggin TGS. I've debated doing many an evil thing to get into either that or E3, and since there IS no E3 anymore...

I have to link the rest because the size allowed to post pics is too small. I only posted my two Cell phone pictures first because they were of small size. The girl was posing for somebody else, I thought what the hell and snapped it. I actually felt bad taking pictures of any of the girls there. They all seemed dead or dying inside already . . .
