the story in the first was the best but as for game play 3 is really up there
if they did not mess up the game mechanics from the first to the second i believe it would have smoked the final fantasy series out of the water and finally put that dead horse to rest.
By the way, those were some pretty random images at the end of the trailer. An amputated and maimed Cecily, a picture of a shoe covered in Ziggy's son's blood, Juli giving MOMO CPR, Voyager's pedo face, young Albedo being grasped by a harem of unbearably creepy Realians, Dmitri's pedo face...
@MegaCoolkid209 Well I don't know about you, but I don't rely on reviews to determine if I like a game or not. Kingdom Hearts is great too, but Xenosaga had a way better story, better gameplay, better music, better emotions, better voice acting, better characters, and better depth. It's an all-around better game.
best RPG Game ever for the PS2!it's a shame namco and monolith stupid pulled the plug on the already in progress Xenosaga 4,5and 6. Why pull the plug of three games already in progress x.x not to mention, Xenosaga Frontier and another on
I hate Namco and monolith studies >:( I would kill myself because they cut the other three games , and made some crappy graphic game called Xenoblade! I hate you BASTARD. A great game capable of matching FF was ruined FML!
@songoku17 Hahahahahaha! Albedo laugh is needed here. Capable of MATCHING FF? Please, Xenosaga far surpassed the so-called masterpieces of Final Fantasy. Great games to be sure, but Xenosaga will be known eternally by it's fans as what it was: Amazing, in every sense of the word. I seriously find your statement quite funny, though maybe it's just me.

@songoku17 They had no choice but to pull the plug Xenosaga because after episode 1, some people left, and more left after each sequal. But the main reason why it was cut short is because it was hardly on the popluarity line to the rest of the world. But in Japan it was as popular (or more popular) then Final Fantasy. Shame that they didn't make more. Dispite that, everything in the story was explained. (except for some small minor parts)
@Joehop777 Yes that is true unfortunately. Yeah so I heard it was new and fresh, it did deserve the popularity it got while it was brought out. It's a shame The US doesn't appreciate some games and let's them go by. It was pretty descriptive,a few things and characters pasts were left cloudy but over all it was great. Shame to see such a good game canceled. But thanks for explaining
Oh wow, yeah! I heard of that and it does sound interesting, but I will go to that site and look into it. Thanks alot for the information Guess all we can do now is enjoy the trilogy, and maybe hope for a new one, after all anything is possible :")
@songoku17 One thing I forgot, theres a xenosaga cell phone game called xenosaga: the pied piper story. Though its exclusively in japan. It Explains more of Ziggys story. Go to Labrinthos(dot)org to find out. I'm not shure it still exsists but its worth a look.
I remember when I watched this trailer years ago, it was so epic that I was obsessed with it that I watched the damn trailer several times in the day until I finally got bored with it
THIS IS THE BEST SOUNDTRACK .... would you imagine !!!!!!!!!!!!!! so ritual ... music... convey.......in a powerful technological sequence of power........... I just understand it.....
This is one of the best videogame trailers I've ever seen. Come to think of it, it's been like that for the past few years... Long after finishing the game xP. Beautiful soundtrack, awesome characters, memorable storyline. Great game, all in all =)
I should get two in the mail soon. im just about to beat 1 for the second time, im off to Proto Merkabah after I finish mintia and get all the AIDS units.
Too bad I hear number 2 isn't nearly as good as 1. And for the last boss or an epic boss the first song would have made fantastic music. If they had put it as the Albedo fight in Episode I i bet it coulda gained One Winged Angel status.
I hate how the graphics of this game make Jin look like an old man. In general I'm not fond of the graphics for this game... Episode III was much better.
The story of this game was definetly an improvement. The gameplay...not so much. If the gameplay was as wide as the first or third game, the series would have remained a popular trend.
Too bad the game isn't even half as great as the trailer is.
EP II storyline definetly has it's moments (for exemple U.R.T.V.'s thread is shown really good), but generally, the main plot is rushed, chaotic and many of cutscenes don't make very good impression, because of things like completely inappropriate music, face and voice expression, stupid, naive dialogs or just bad direction.
It's too bad Mitsuda distanced himself from the project. His music is always perfect for the series. In fact, I believe the episode 1 OST is one of the greatest video game scores of all time.
I loved this trailer. Possibly one of the most brilliant ones I had ever seen. Too bad the game itself was relativley weak. But they more than made up for it with the 3rd game!
This exact trailer was the first thing related to Xenosaga that I saw. It was on G4 one night and I thought it looked cool though I forgot the name. Some months later, I bought Episode 1 because I wanted a new RPG to play and I just a good feeling about it.
Good game,except for the dull GS missions (is that what they are called?) Yeah it was short, but the story was still good. Episode III does own all though.
meh. i liked episode 2. I agree that it was too short, but the battle system was quite good in my opinion. It just felt great to boost and combo and give the enemy no chance for retaliation. But as for storyline, it is a little lacking. I guess it had to be this way because epI was the beginning: the introduction. ep II is fillers and ep 3 is the end. so, it makes sense.
Addressing the lyrics question, the truth is it IS jibberish! (I've read that its a style of song wherein the vocals are more an instrument.) There are lyrics, but there is no real point to them other than the sound. Certainly works, na? Oh, and the trailer, I'm beginning to feel saddened by the cuts, and how it seems that for Ep. III to go over well you'd have need to have played the DS version to get the whole story... gr....anyway, thank you!
Can someone confirm if the lyrics for the background music are all jibberish. Plus the game was short! Regardless of the lenght of and number of cutscenes this game had, it was still short. Cut scenes for Episode 1 equalled to 8 hrs. Episode 2 just had 6 hrs or less.
Yuki Kajiura is known for just chanting sound in her songs so it is just jibberish really. They should've had more gameplay in the second not cutscenes. I'm actually glad they cut down on them.
then you are dumb. Episode II just got bad press because of disapointed fanboys whoe expected episode I again. The ending to that game is one of the most touching parts in the saga
I agree wuth Muskugeee. I watched this trailer many many times, but was dissapointed with the game. Of cource I still liked the game a lot, it just didn't live up to the trailer.
the story in the first was the best but as for game play 3 is really up there
