kbrown Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Has anyone ever played Xenogears for the PS1? That was one of the most complex, twisting stories that I've ever seen in an RPG. The battle system was also very unique with it's martial arts focus and comboing system. The game had anime inspired FMVs and a good soundtrack. It was a 2-disc game, but the 2nd disc was much shorter and played more like a past story telling than your characters being in the present. I heard Square blew the budget on that title and that was the reasoning the 2nd disc was so different. After the project completed, the team disassembled and some went on to Namco and a spin-off series called Xenosaga was made for the PS2, although I personally felt it did not compare to Xenogears. I'd love to see a remark of Xenogears, but sadly I don't think that will ever happen.If you haven't played it I strongly suggest you check it out! Translations are bit off and it could use an updated script, but you can certainly get by with how it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboriginal Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Xenogears was good but the second disc was a such a turnoff. I prefer Albert's Odyssey on Sega Saturn over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
