CAGiversary!
I got it cheap at CC when they put it on clearance. And I love the first few hrs that I played. Then I suddenly gave it up for time being.

I can't provide link now cuz I'm mobile on my iPhone. But wanted to help fellow cags whose into japrpg.

I just hope now tale of vesperia would drop in price so I can play a few hours and forget it also

All gone now - good thing too, I was about to pull the trigger! I should go grocery shopping and just stop looking at CAG :p
 
[quote name='GrilledWitOnions']I see what you did there.[/QUOTE]

I didnt!(like most of the in game music related things) but thanks for pointing it out! :)

This game isnt bad....I felt there was more to be desired overall but the gameplay is fun and the story isnt all that bad..you learn a little history while you're at it!
 
I love Lost Odyssey and will play through it again. I tried to get into Eternal Sonata for both 360 and PS3, but couldn't get past its uninteresting story and repetitiveness.
 
[quote name='InFlames215']Almost exact same thing for me. Like JRPGs, love Lost Odyssey, but couldn't get myself to like Eternal Sonata.[/quote]

Exact opposite for me, I just can't get into Lost Odyssey. I want to, Everything about it says I should like it, but it's so DULL. I wish I understood why two Microsoft Game Studio-associated developers can't make a game with a steady frame rate. (My experience with Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey so far)

On-topic. I just beat Eternal Sonata tonight. If you've played Star Ocean 3, you'll like the battle system. However:

Comparison to Final Fantasy X, don't read if you haven't finished that:
The ending is about as satisfying as the series of end battles in FFX (as in, lame).

$20 is about what this game is worth. Star Ocean 4 and The Last Remnant are better RPGs, though.[/quote]
I completely disagree about Star Ocean. Though I finished it, I certainly didn't enjoy it.[/quote]

Did you play and like Star Ocean III?

EDIT: Worth it at ≤ $20, I think it's one of the few good JRPGs this generation
 
Damn... missed it. This is one of those games that I'm still on the fence about but I probably would have gotten it for $17.
 
[quote name='GrilledWitOnions']CamelCamelCamel says it's the lowest it's ever been. If I had a job I'd bite, I really want this game (what am I doing on a deal forum w/out a job!)[/quote]

I'm on a deals site BECAUSE I don't have a job. Helps me get my gaming fix cheap.
 
Now $19.49 - I heard PS3 version is much more harder (and expensive, of course) than Xbox 360? Why? Can anyone care to explain?

From what I've read and experienced they've lowered the exp and the enemies hit much harder.
 
I guess PS3 is more hardcore? o_O; Okay, that came out wrong. Well, I'm getting Eternal Sonata for 360 since I won't want to fight my sweat all the way to the end, so 360 will be light for me like diet (no, I don't drink diet). XD
 
PS3 version released recently so, like Bioshock, it costs more for the PS3 version compared to the 360 version.

I love a lot of different JRPGs, but I simply could not get into this. I tried, and I tried. I liked the setting...liked the art direction...liked the music. But I couldn't get passed the uninspired gameplay and awful, awful, awful, awful dialogue. Some of it makes "master of unlocking" and "Jill sandwich" seem well-written.
 
Crazy good deal.

I sort of agree with bigdaddybruce though. Love the art style, music and setting, but the a lot of the dialogue is pretty laughable. Gameplay is pretty decent. Not great, but good enough. I still haven't finished the game though... something always interrupts me.

I also wish some of the achievements were easier to get. I think you'll only get like 300 points for finishing the game the first time. Oh well, not a big deal though.
 
You know, Big, I agree with you, the voice acting and dialogue is pretty obnoxious.
But it really isn't that much worse than most JRPG's is it?
