Kaim has lost his memories, the past 1000 years mysteriously stripped from him... Unlocking these memories proves the key to thwarting a sinister plot that threatens two worlds.It's a promising premise that's never fully realized."

"Early on in Lost Odyssey... it becomes clear this is not the Japanese role-playing game of your childhood... If Sakaguchi intends to turn Lost Odyssey into a franchise -- and all indications are that he does -- I'd like to see these refreshingly adult themes expanded on further in future titles."

Taking a handful of Japan’s gaming superheroes and having them collaborate on a Final Fantasy-esque JRPG is the equivalent of a slam dunk—speaking of which, manga mastermind Takehiko Inoue is on board for Lost Odyssey, which heads to the U.S. in February.

Microsoft could be planning to expand role-playing game Lost Odyssey into a series. Word comes by way of the Japanese head of Xbox 360, who told regional media giant Nikkei (spotted by All RPG) that "the series" will continue grow as time went on. He believes this will more than make up for rather disappointing sales of the title so far - the current figure stands at 100,000.

For fans of RPGs, Lost Odyssey is a comfy old pair of shoes. On the other hand, if the thought of random battles makes you pale then playing this would be like walking on broken glass. Basically, it's a game of opposites: easily one of the best-looking titles on any platform built on the most traditional roleplaying foundations in gaming. It's incredibly annoying, ridiculously overblown in its story, and sometimes even laughably hamfisted.
