Thanks Charlie. Xenosaga's my favorite game of all time and I can't wait for Episode II! 2005 can't come any quicker...*sigh*

The whole game's awesome (unless you don't like over 30 minutes of awesome story at a time)! The back of the box may say over 80 hours, but it really is under fifty if you don't do everything. If you've played Xenogears (it's a greatest hit now) and liked it, you should play Xenosaga. But then you'd be stuck like me, waiting for the next one for so long.

Wow, I can't believe that ToS got a higher score than Xenosaga from Famitsu Very Happy ToS got a score of 34/40.

I wonder if ToS will topple Xenosaga as my favorite. The gameplay looks way better than Episode I's but the battle system of Episode II has me intrigued. It's kind of hard to imagine a game with a better plot than Xenosaga's (clearly my opinion so don't yell at me if you think I'm wrong).

I liked xenosaga, I got pretty far in the plot (I got to the part where you are inside KOS-MOS in the simulation of miltia and you have to fight tiamat so junior and shion can face their past. Cant beat that thing! grrrrr!

Yeah, he's pretty tough. You did know you can only beat it with Shion or Jr., right? Otherwise he'll heal himself. First you beat it with either Shion or Jr., then who ever remains (meaning, for example, you killed it the first time with Shion, the second you have to kill it with Jr.)finish it off after it heals itself.Enjoy the rest of the game. It is well worth it! Wink
