Lost Odyssey: DLC and New Achievements

Lost Odyssey: DLC and New Achievements
Written Thursday, April 10, 2008 by Alan Pettit

It's no secret that I was a fan of this game, as well as the RPG genre in general. It's also no secret I'm a fan of achievements. This news put a smile on my face.

In Japan only, a new piece of DLC is available for Lost Odyssey for 400MSP. This will feature a new dungeon, a unique boss and a very rare item. You can most likely make a fake Japanese Live account to download and have it work for you on your normal US/PAL account, which I did when Blue Dragon got content earlier than the rest of the world. You'd have to put points on the fake account however, so you might want to wait to be safe in case for some reason it doesn't work. It is also worth mentioning that you will need a save before the end of the game, but after a certain point in the story which I won't spoil here.

In addition, an extra six achievements have appeared through xbox,com for an extra 100 gamerscore. One is a simple ten pointer for visiting the downloaded dungeon, while the other five are secret. That still leaves another 150G for Mistwalker to play with and I sincerely hope the explore more content for this stellar title.

I also hope they release some kind of homing device to find missing items for the Treasure Trove achievement, but that's a whole different article.

I'm happy there are new achievements, but I'm not truly happy until they add DLC that lets one view what treasures they have and haven't found yet. Once they add that. :D

Brilliant! Id love to carry on playing, but my disk 1 has decided not to work =[ I need to take it back.... Sucks that its for Japan only "/ They would make a lot more money if it was worldwide.

I am sure it will be available in other regions in no time. I will certainly be picking the DLC up I loved this game.

I hope it lives up to it's jrpg legacy and the new boss is hard as hell. Omega from Enchanted Arms was a very lame disappointment. LAME!

if the game is more popular in NA, why would you only release the DLC to Japan, where the 360 is the lowest selling video game system?

I'm still trying to get the 1000/1000 at the moment anyway, but more points will be awesome as well as extra DLC, i really hope they bring it to Europe >.< Lucky Japanese...:(

This game is great, but I haven't had much time to play it. We can only hope that the DLC comes out in the US.

I'm fairly new here, but I have a Japanese account, so I would love to get this DLC. However, how does one go about purchasing points for Japanese accounts in the US? It doesn't seem to allow foreign credit cards.

The new DLC got region lock on the patch so not worth to dl if u're playing US/PAl version

Hi, I was just wondering if you could back track through the discs in the game. So after completing the game I could go back and finish any side quests/treasure hunting etc...

Thanks alot

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
