Blue Dragon


The first RPG for the new generation finally hits upon us…

I would have to praise Microsoft for what they did to this game.

They translate the game from Japanese to English/Chinese/Korean within 5 months from the Japanese release for the Asia market. The Europe and America region will have to wait till end of this year. A full Year late from Japanese release..

With the Asian version, they kept the Japanese voive over intact, with subtitles of English or Chinese. Great job Microsoft.

With Hironobu Sakaguchi creating and spearheading this project, Akira Toriyama's character desogn and Nobuo Uematsu's composed music..many would think that this game cannot go wrong. Indeed, it does not disappoint. It's amazing infact.(comes in 3 DVDs!!)

High Definition graphics, addictive combat, deep character growth, interesting story line, amazing and haunting music..and a song sung by Ian Gillan..it's really a great job done. Creativity unleashed.

Was so so anticipating the experience that I bought the Japanese manga during it's release in Japan..amazing art by Takeshi Obata(Death Note fame).

Guess another 60 hours of time wasting on this experience...
