I speak, of course, of Lost Odyssey.
I just recently got this game and it has some of the most amazing music I've ever heard in a video game. Also has one of my favorite battle themes of all time. I know the game is kinda old, but come on. You can't deny masterpieces of this caliber.

Random music:

Intro music, beautiful.

Battle theme, because it's amazing.

One of the many boss battle themes, reminiscent of Advent Children's remake of One-Winged Angel.

The theme for Uhra, the first city you visit in the game.

Numara, the second major city. (Absolutely beautiful city btw.)

The overworld (World map) theme.

Another boss fight. Amazing song, again.

The song that best sums up the whole experience.

I could go on forever, people. I won't, because most of you won't even listen to all of those.

Any Final Fantasy fan will feel right at home with this game. The game itself is four discs long, which is the first time any game has used more than one disc since like...The Genesis, lol. Just goes to show how much effort they put into it. LO has at least 60 hours of gameplay with enough side quests to keep you going for an extra 20.

Graphics are beautiful of course.

Voice acting is often hilarious (In a good way), and almost perfectly done considering it's a Japanese game with English speakers (Usually ends badly (/sea all English Anime and Advent Children)).

Definitely give this game a 10 out of 10. Best game I've played since FF8.

Edit:Yes, before you ask, it's Nobuo Uematsu that made the soundtrack for this game, the mastermind behind all of Final Fantasy's soundtracks, other than X-2. In fact, the game itself was directed by Hironobu Sakaguchi, the creator of almost all of the Final Fantasy games.

Lol... Lost Odyssey is Meh at best, it looks and sounds pretty, and has a half-way decent story (zomg someone with amnesia and teenage angst @ 1000 years old, never seen that before.....), but the gameplay is the equivalent of dragon quest... 1.

Lost Odyssey I enjoyed, but I will always give credit to The Legend of The Dragoon as being my all-time favorite rpg, and it sucks it isn't well known at all. I would pay the developer's just to make a sequel /cry

I played it over a duration of like Idunno years back and I still play it today, and I was playing it when I was going through the worst crisis I could imagine so, it really helped me escape when I needed to, not to mention the story and just over-all places in the game were just mind-blowing to me. If people haven't played The Legend Of The Dragoon they really should, they don't know what they are missing! You can't even call yourself a fan of rpg and not have played that game!!

I loved Sed in Lost Odyssey and he was old (Random /ontopic) though to be honest I think he was an homage to Cid, not only having a similar name, but he's a pirate with his own boat which goes well with Cid and his airship.

Or maybe it needs lots of disks because dvd<blueray.
It is a good game, but I still like classic Snes-time square games music better.

Someone earlier said this, but yes, LoD is an amazing RPG, but no, it's not the best game ever.

That being said, it's one of the best RPGs NOT made by Square.

Edit:Scratch that. Morrowind is first, then LoD I guess.

It's a shame Oblivion wasn't as good as Morrowind (Though still amazing.) They used up way too much disc space with voice-overs (Over half the disc was voice) and just didn't have any room for actual gameplay. That's not to say it wasn't a long time-consuming game. It definitely was. Just not as much as we had hoped it to be.

Idunno I was extremely excited about oblivion, and even though I didn't want to think about it, I knew that it just wouldn't be as in-depth as the first Morrowind, but it will always always have a place in my heart, Morrowind is just one of those games that I'm happy that it was made in my lifetime you know? I'm actually gonna go hook up my old xbox to go play it now lmao

Baldur's Gate is like a Diablo clone I believe. Top-down dungeon crawler, right? I know that's what Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance is.
