Blue Dragon Demo
Not sure how many of you 360 owners take full advantage of the demos uploaded the the XBox Marketplace. If you do though, definitely try out Blue Dragon. It's the upcoming game from Mist Walker, which is headed by the father of Final Fantasy. The game in itself is a little too childish for my tastes... but it does have a great battle system.
It basically revolves around a charge system, which seems really cool. I downloaded the demo and played through it a couple of times. I got used to the controls and everything... I can't say I really like the game but it's definitely much better than a lot of other RPGs I've played. So if you've played games like Star Ocean 3, Radiata Stories or Grandia 3 and been reasonably satisfied... definitely play through this game. It's a much more refined game.

I just tried it, yea it's childish but at least it has some fun in it, i would probably suggest www.ijji.com if you want a fast paced good graphical game with a weird announcer(don't ask just listen...)

I'm looking forward to it. From gameplay footage and trailers, it looks like it'll be fun. I love the art style (I'm a fan of DB series) and well, it justy looks like it's a good solid RPG for 360.

Yeah a bit to cartooney for my tastes.

I tried the demo on the cover disc of OXM (official xbox magazine) and it was actually very good. I like the art style, music and character design. the only thing I didn't like much was the slightly slow battles compared to more faster paced RPGs....but that might be because the demo was only 60 minutes long. The bosses are very good looking too. Also, I didn't really bother to look through the menu properly due to the time limit but it seemed okay. I'll definetly buy it though as it is enjoyable for a rpg.

I don't have any plans to play this game. I never liked the way it looked in the trailers, and a friend of mine d/l the demo and it didn't capture my attention at all :/
Plus I have played Star Ocean 3 and I didn't like it xD

I read a couple of reviews on Blue Dragon. The game doesn't really attract me. The game play seems alright. The storyline is really cliche. This game is more of a rental.
I heard in Japan people got a Xbox 360 just to play this game.
Blue Dragon Demo 
it would be like... There would be a controller with one button and that's it, because they wouldn't want to confuse people.
