Well if this is the highlight of 360 power I'm even less impressed with the
idea of a new X-Box than before seeing it.
Blue Dragon a giant blue blob of a dragon is in my opinion a dishonor to
dragon lovers of lost detail and less than comic looking actions of one blue
hue.
Lost Odyssey was slightly more interesting looking but still falls short in
RPG depth looks to me as being anything I would lay my money out for a 360
when my current X-Box is delivering everything I want already.

Except for a good MMORPG which is beyond me why MS Bill Gates hasn't
bothered to do anything about even though their company promotes XB-Live so
heavly and their Ashertons Call is only being catered on the PC while
company's like SONY have EQ Adv., FP-XI going for the late coming online
console.

If X-Box 360 is going to stay afloat the future of gaming consoles they had
better come up with some wicked support and follow through fast cause I
believe once PS3 hits the shelf 360 will only once again be the buzz word
for spinning out of control in your car playing Gran Turismo 5.
