I bought it about a year ago, because it was £5 from £20, and I thought "what the fuck". This was also when I bought ten other games of which I have all completed; Lost Odyssey and Eternal Sonata amongst them. But I have a felling I will just waste my time with Blue Dragon. The weird thing is, that I was super pumped about Blue Dragon before it came out -- I loved the art style, Mistwalker looked promising and the demo played well. However after poor reviews saying terrible story, flat characters, cringe-worthy voice acting and most of all being all out generic and unmemorable.
On top of that, I'm kind of sick of the +3 attitude after finishing Eternal Sonata.
Well what do you think? Should I invest hours into this or plunge it into the "to be sold" bin

Is Blue Dragon Worth Playing?
" Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees. If you don't mind old school 16bit RPGs, which Blue Dragon pretty much is, then you will love the game. "yeah what he said, only play it if you have a lot of free time on your hands and if you want to play a game which requires very little effort
Ive finished Lost Odyssey and I'm currently playing Eternal Sonata with my girlfriend. Although Blue Dragon does fall flat in a lot of areas, I loved the class-based combat enough to stick it out. By the very end of the game it was starting to wear on me, so take that as you will.
I was recommended Blue Dragon, and it took me a while to properly get into in. I'm onto the second disk now and I'm finding it easier to play as a lot more has happened in the story. The voice acting is atrocious, but I put it onto Japanese with English subtitles and I find it more bearable. :)
Blue Dragon is one of my favourite 360 games. Like a poster above, I had to change the audio from english to japanese. The kids were bad enough, but Marumaro is the SINGLE worst character in all of gaming. Seriously game-breaking. I wish this game would get a sequel, but I am in a distinct minority of being a huge fan of the game.
