Lady Vols & Lost Odyssey

Big congrats to the Lady Vols for number 8.  I really thought that Stanford might win last night but my Vols spanked that butt. 

Anybody played Lost Odyssey?  One of my students was going on and on about it yesterday.  I have mentioned before that the only rpg that I have ever tried was Oblivion and even that wasn't much.  I want to make myself like rpgs but I just don't know.  I need a good story.  I enjoyed Bioshock for the story.  The fighting was okay but that isn't what grabbed me.  Can I get into rpgs?  Do they have good stories?  Does anybody really care?  Stay tuned.

hmmm.... wow... to me this is a bit conroversial.. in that people who LOVE JRPGs (and I actually am one of them) say that the stories are epic, fantstic orgasmic... whatever. I say that a lot of them are thin and rely on stereotype and bad characterization. Often the heroes will do what they do becuase it's conviencent for hte story. That being said: Lost Odyssey is pretty good so far. Kaim is the hero: he is 1000 years old, has lost his memory. You have to basically solve the mystery defeat teh bad guy. With JRPGs the good ones are super complex. a ton of side quests, ots of "stuff" to find, side bosses etc. here's a review if you are interested... http://www.gamefocus.ca/?nav=reviewCard&fid=5026 PM me if you want more information on RPGs. You (I thnk) may like Mass Effect...

Meh, why have such a one tracked story? Get ahold of some local D&D groups. Make your own, have fun, and be WAY more creative.
