Well, I have seen the demo of Lost Odyssey in action. The game is so very grown-up and pieced together with such seamless virtuousity that I really don\'t know what to say. I\'m impressed as I\'ve ever been with a videogame. It is beautiful. I\'m about as excited about it now, as a fully functioning (really), independent adult, as I was excited about Final Fantasy VII as a college student, as I was about Final Fantasy IV as much younger man. I look forward to this game.
Seeing (and playing) is believing, and I am a believer in Lost Odyssey. My immediate judgment is a belief that it will sell this console to at least a million Japanese gamers. And Microsoft must think so too –it’s going to make sure this game is everywhere. It will be featured most prominently at the company’s booth at Tokyo Game Show, and, if its promise to host all show-floor demos on Xbox Live holds true, that should mean this game\'s demo will be available for download next Wednesday night.

The above is just a snippet from a four page article, an excellent article. I\'m not sure how Japan is going to receive Lost Odyseey, but I\'m more excited for it than ever.
EDIT: There are...pictures of the game floating around the net...I can\'t remember what this forums\' policy is on scans...worth a look...you know what one of my favorite Xbox sites is?

Looks impressive, but RPG\'s are dead to me. I can try and feign interest though! ;)

even i have a hard time with RPG\'s the last few years.
playing EQ years ago in its prime ruined it genre for me.
especially turn based ones, ugh.

I went through a lull a couple years back where I was tired of RPGs. Final Fantasy X just ruined the genre for me, I hated it in every way possible. Now I\'ve started picking them up again but at a much slower pace, and with plenty of time between titles.

I love the almost non-existant transition from CG to realtime battle.
New screens (both realtime):
