Exclusive Lost Odyssey Movie Available

The Unreal 3 graphics engine is an amazing one, if used well. While games like Blacksite: Area 51 don't do much to help this excellent engine become more popular (at least for me, Blacksite: Area 51 was somehow disappointing, especially because they didn't optimize the graphics properly, and the overall "unfinished" feeling of the game), Lost Odyssey is an excellent title that uses the Unreal Engine 3.0, and today, it just got released in Northern America...

Currently, Lost Odyssey is only available for the Xbox 360, being already released back in early December 2007 in Japan, and on the 8th of February, in Australia. Unfortunately, Europe will have to wait until the end of this month, because the European release is scheduled for the 29th of February.The story of this RPG game is spinning around the many generations that are influenced by Kaim, the user-controlled character, a man who was condemned to live for 1,000 years (I wouldn't mind too much getting such a sentence!). It's a story of love, hate, peace and war, all taking place in a world getting close to a "mystical industrial revolution".

Today, we just got a message from Game Invasion's Jeff Palumbo, informing us about the latest exclusive video from Lost Odyssey, so we would like to thank him A LOT, and also share this with you. Just go here and enjoy it!

I really hope they are going to make this available for PCs as soon as possible, because otherwise I'll be forced to buy a game console... Lost Odyssey is a damn good reason to justify expenses on a game console, even if you are only gaming a few hours per week!
