Story:"Hironobu Sakaguchi, the Father of the Final Fantasy series, and Artoon present the world of Blue Dragon on Xbox 360. Featuring the character design of Akira Toriyama, the Father of "Dragon Ball Z", and music by Nobuo Uematsu, the composer for Final Fantasy, Blue Dragon is an epic role-playing game (RPG) centered on five youngsters who possess miraculous strength and magical power to control shadow creatures that mirror the actions of their masters."
Blue Dragon follows the story of five friends (Shu, Jiro, Kluke, Zola, and Marumaro) as they travel across the world to confront Nene, the evil ruler of the Grand Kingdom. The setting inspired separate anime and manga adaptations, although these follow the story to different degrees and feature a different cast of characters. The game follows a traditional role-playing design, based around exploration and turn-based combat.
The gameplay of Blue Dragon uses turn-based gameplay elements seen in older Japanese role-playing video games. The game world contains two major types of areas: towns, in which the player can rest and purchase items, and dungeon-like areas, with numerous foes to be defeated.Show more

Blue Dragon is a great alternative to Dragon Quest and probably should of been as big. As one of the two games developed by Mistwalker, the other being Lost Odyssey (vote for that one too), the story is great and a fun tale. The world feels rich and comparable to Dragon Quest 8!
I have so many fond memories of watching my brother play this game as a child. I was 3 years old when the game came out and this game has stuck with me through all these years. I grew up to become a big fan of other JRPGs such as Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest and I feel like this game and franchise really had the potential to be one of the greats. I'd love to see this game get a revive. especially in such a big era of nostalgia and people loving the old graphical style of ps1/2 and xbox 360 games.
I got this game as a birthday present. Just looking at it gives me a warm feeling, like it's the day I got it. I remember the smell of freshly brewed coffee, the rainy day, and the crooked chocolate cake my aunt made. And I get lost in a sea of memories, where every design of those beautifully characters by Akira transports me to a simpler, happier time.
I discovered it through the anime and just had to play it (I begged my mom to buy it). This was the first JRPG I remember playing and finishing as a kid, and I loved it. I've always wanted to play it properly on another platform, since I no longer have a microsoft console and it's not available on Xbox Cloud Gaming or Game Pass. With the passing of Akira Toriyama, I thought all the works he was involved in would get more attention, but apparently it didn't happen with Blue Dragon, which is a shame because I think the game is a lot of fun. I'd love to see this game revived and be able to play it on pc.
This game remains one of my all time favorites. It really opened my eyes to how big a game can be, as a kid I was amazed it had 3 discs! The story, the characters and the soundtrack, everything is just perfect to me. Incredibly underrated game that is trapped on a single platform.
For me, I got into Blue Dragon through the anime. Was a real fun watch when I was a kid, and I've always wanted to try out the game. No Xbox, so I couldn't, but we could through this! Hopefully it shows up on GoG.
