I know that linking to external sites for this is pretty much frowned upon, but if you guys want you can Digg this article I wrote up about this. I used boco's and vexvegaz's pictures as example.

It might help get the problem noticed by bigger sites.

Consider it done.

no problem, thanks!

if anyone who understans spanish (maybe someone from florida, san francisco, san diego, LA, texas... (do not know more places in the us where people speak spanish), or speaks it, could switch he's/she's 360 to spanish and try if the game includes Spanish subtitles i'd be very very pleased.

I can't understand they include Italian and german Dub option in a game targetted for the American language rahter than putting Spanish or french on the game xD this is very silly! :lol

 

[h3ro]

Such bullshit... Who the hell thought that this was a good, let alone a rational way of packaging a game... freaking morons.

 

[Duderz]

Wow, so much for buying this game, I'm not putting up with that kind of crap - Halo 3's LE screw up was enough.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Is the manual at least color?

I'll never understand why the United States, the biggest market for video games, always gets screwed with shoddy packaging and black & white, super-thin manuals.

The white sleeve really makes it extra sad. It's like some bootleg.

At least everyone isn't slamming it with 6/7s like BD >_<

 

[h3ro]

If this game had Final Fantasy in the title it wouldn't get a single score lower than 8.5...

I'm still too heated over the damn game case to even care about that review right now... idiots...

 

[MCD]

he gave ES 8.5 btw.

 

[harSon]

Nobody is giving it high rankings either... It's going to end up with a High 70% rating just like Blue Dragon.

 

[AgentOtaku]

....I can see myself waiting for the asian version to drop to like $20 on play-asia, buying that one, then swapping out the case with the NA one down the road....

....this shit is infuriating

Listening to someone who 9'd No More Heroes prattle on about ANY form o technical flaw or iffy gameplay element WHATSOEVER is unfathomable to me. It's like reading a dining review from someone who willingly eats hamburgers out of the dumpster, and not in the charming Earthbound way.

 

[FateBreaker]

this is pure conjecture, bbbuutttt....

"Mistwalker’s latest Xbox 360 RPG, Lost Odyssey, is shipping today, and our review is almost ready for release. We caught word that there is a difference in load times between the review build we had and the final boxed version, however, so we’re waiting to double-check if this is indeed the case before we post.... We’re hoping to have our review posted tomorrow—stay tuned

That's kind of ridiculous. NMH is fun, but it's the biggest technical mess I think I've ever played for more than 20 minutes.

But I am kind of less forgiving of technical hijinks in turn-based RPGs. Just different expectations.

they really do need to check on this. after playing for about an hour or so i noticed very little to none load times when transitioning from level to level or area to area.

would you happen to have a link to exactly what the problem was b4 the release?

Honestly, It wouldn't surprise me if that was the next brilliant idea from MS...

Oh and props for using up three CD-Rs for GAFs pleasure.

ain't that some shit....ah well, in the end who gives a fuck? If the game is good, then deliver that bitch in a garbage bag for all I care.


EDIT: Wow, we really have some picky bitches here, huh? lol

Or maybe...some of them never were going to buy it? mmmm mmmmm?

your packaging is better than mine

I hate to tell you this but I think that might be pirated.

 

[rs7k]

WTF? This for real? They put all four discs inside a simple 1-DVD case, like that?

Yours came with notebook paper? Lucky. The back of my box listed one of the features as "write your own instruction booklet"

What about the transition to battles? How are the load times?

 

[RBH]

I just picked up my copy.

Brilliant. :lol :lol :lol

I'm still stunned at MS using a fucking sleeve envelope in the box. So incredibly bush league.

 

[Desi]

Hopefully they get some sense knocked into them and we can request blank replacement cases.

Why would you want that?

 

[vexvegaz]

2 - 2.5 sec maybe? i guess coming into this game i was expecting load times to be soo high it can almost be annoyingly unplayable. the longest load time ive noticed so far is when the game goes from play to cut scene. but shouldn't that be expected?

 

[Takuhi]

I just picked up my copy.

:lol :lol :lol
I am loling so hard that it HURTS!

 

[Teknoman]

Why would you want that?

Why not? Beats having 3 discs stacked on top of each other and a paper sleeve for the 4th.

So then the retail has improved over the review copy?

 

[Desi]

Why would you want that?

hm just thinking if EA can refund people for Medal of Honor: Heroes 2, Nintendo replacing Wiimote straps and giving jackets, MS can hook me up with a green case that can properly hold four discs. SE DMC4 for PS3 from capcom was kind of sad too.

Seriously. He also gave both of Blue Dragon and Silent Hill Origins a 6, so it's pretty much a laughable matter :lol

 

[Alex]

:lol, you figure after all of the shit MS has gone through this generation, and right after the Halo 3 box nonsense that they would eventually catch on.
