Final Fantasy creator discloses more details on Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey; one of the titles to be in Xbox 360’s first year.

Just by being developed by Mistwalker Studios under the supervision of "the father of Final Fantasy" Hironobu Sakaguchi, Microsoft's upcoming Xbox 360 games Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey are garnering a lot of attention. With the original Xbox failing to capture the Japanese market, Microsoft is determined not to let history repeat itself. Microsoft has signed on several well-known Japanese developers, and Sakaguchi's games might play a key role in establishing the system in Japan. Unfortunately, it might be a while before gamers in Japan get their hands on these titles.

Definately happy that there will be more RPGs. I've always knocked the xbox for its lack of game variety (espically in the RPG department) and this will help kill my arguments against it

If I had to choose one type of game I could only play for the rest of my life it would be a tossup between fps's and rpg's but I think that I'd choose rpg's.
