I;m very excited for Eternal Sonata.  I found the demo they put up on the japanese xbox live marketplace surprisingly impressive.  Blue Dragon looks cool also.  It's frustrating that throughout both xboxs, there hasnt been one decent JRPG, and now two are coming all at once.   Assuming Namco-Bandai don't delay Eternal Sonata for Europe :evil:

Very good score. I'm really looking forward to this game and Blue Dragon also. I can't wait since I'm really itching for some cool JRPG action. With those two games, Lost Odyssey, and Mass Effect my RPG needs should be well covered for some time.

I was interested in this because of the concept and the battle system seemed interesting. Unfortunately after seeing a cut scene it just turned me off completely. Oh well not everyone can like the game.

I'm definitely all for Eternal Sonata. In regards to Blue Dragon, I really don't care if the game is good. I won't buy it because I absolutely detest Akira Toriyama's art style.

The art style doesn't do anything for me, so I'd be lying if I said I inteded to run out and buy it, but I am interested in playing the North American demo.

Looks fun, just like Blue Dragon. Taking their sweet time, though.

Mostly about Eternal Sonata.  I'm not a big Toriyama fan, but the art style didn't stop me from enjoying Chrono Trigger and DQ8.

All of these RPG's are going to come out at the same time.  It really sucks that these companies do that.  Do they think that gamers don't play games any other time of the year?

yeah I am a little bit, but we're probably part of the minority as alot of successful jrpg's in the past have been quite easy, while those that were less successful often were described as being less accessible. Anyway thanks ananda, I've been dying to know how this game was gonna do, and honestly I think I'll end up picking it up earlier than I will Blue Dragon. Sure Blue Dragon scored better but that was like half a year ago, and for me the game just missed its window, I thought I'd be playing the game by April but apparently it takes 6 months to make text translations. Hopefully, they are taking extra time on Blue Dragon to tweak the difficultly.
