One of my friends owns an Xbox360. Previously the laughing stock of our group (well, untill he got a wii that is) we now are incredibly thankful that he chose to get the console. The reason is two words. Blue. Dragon. This game captured by interest the moment the introduction began. It was beautiful, like an interactive Anime Movie. On top of that, we couldn't help but become attacthed to the characters. Each of us has our favorite. My Xbox owning pal decided to adopt Shu as his main man. The mate who helped me with the Mario Kart wii review found that Kluke fitted his persona best. Jiro was the man for me and as for Xbox friend younger brother...we forced him to have Marumaro, because they look like each other (needless to say, he wasn't impressed). Zola was used by.....I won't say yet. We took it in turns in the battles, with each of us controlling our character of choice. It made it feel more like a team effort. Anyway, the fighting system works very well. It's the general RPG system and it triumphs from the simplicity. We were never confused or overwhelmed. and it was immensely satifying to mow down Green Grunts. The story was entertaining and deep. We found ourselves staying up untill 3 am, just to try and reach the next important plot point. Nene, the main villain, was detestable, just the way he should be and this made him so much better. Even the settings were fantastic, especially the sprawling Underground Hospital. Best of all is the completely original idea of fighting using your shadow! All in all this is the best Xbox360 game I've ever played and maybe one of my all time favorite games. Sound: 8/10 (Not exactly the most memorable, but still good) Graphics: 9/10 (Beautiful Anime esce style) Plot/Characters: 9/10 (Better than most movies, especially the rubbish you see in cinemas nowadays) Gameplay: 10/10 (Simple yet effective) Overall=9/10 = A+

I really need to get Blue Dragon. Heard it was great, but due to lack of time and cash, I have yet to buy it. Also, get a better picture, and I'll recommend it. The picture you used was not only from the anime, which needless to say, was sub par at best, but if I remember correctly, that brown haired girl with the maid dress is from the anime only, and therefore, doesnt belong in a game review. In fact, the only redeeming factor in that entire thing was the fan service, which was overdone to the point of being laughable. |

The picture was the only group shot I could find that'd let me use it. I knew it was from the anime because the game artwork is much different. Plus, I forgot to list the shadows. Shu; Dragon Jiro; Minotaur Kluke: Phoenix Marumaro; Sabre Tooth Tiger (the correct term is ST Cat but since when were games accuatate with paleontological terms anyway) Zola; Killer Bat Fighting with all these cool monsters; its amazing! |

Don't give up. Don't stop fighting for what you believe in. Otherwise your life means nothing | |

Fat chance. He's on Youtube by the way, under alien sighting or something, not that anyone gives a damn, especially not me. Back on topic though; 360 owners, buy this game! |
