It was hoped that this game would single handed help the XBOX360 sell in Japan, a country that is known for their love of RPG's, and with XBOX360's lack of RPG's this was their biggest attempt to bring in the Japanese croud. But has it actually worked? Have they sold console after console due to this game? Unfortunately not. As reviewed by Kiziko, the review gives you the low-down on what was wrong with the game, and if your an RPG fan like myself, makes us feel that bit better that we have the PS3 + the RPG and that not this game.

Blue Dragon has been out in Japan-o-land for a while, and frankly, it hasn't saved the 360 in that particular sales region type marketing thing. I'd hazard a guess as to why with two specific reasons: one, a single game save a console will not, and two, it's just not very good. Not 'I want to vomit on myself then die' bad by any means, just painfully old fashioned and not in keeping with the giant strides the wonderful FFXII has taken in the genre.

      Yeah lost it b4 they entered it. But B.D was suppose to be good rpg for 360 but since it hasn't sold well in japan it shows you the truth. That japan will not buy the system.

    Maybe if they released a dozen RPG's it would help but like the article said you can't depend on one title.
