JB0 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) There will be a beat down if you start coming after Xenogears. 353944[/snapback] "Coming after"? Do you mean point out valid flaws in an otherwise decent game? If so, then by saying "disk 2" I have "come after" the game. My review of it at the time was "half of the best game ever." While my tastes have shifted a bit since then, it's still half of an utterly incredible RPG. What apparently happened with disk 2 is that midway through the Xenogears development cycle the budget was halved to free more cash for FF8, making it impossible for the dev team to complete XG. The slideshow was an attempt to finish the story on a shoestring budget so the game could be released(presumably there were originally more FMV cutscenes planned as well, based on the feel of the game).

Still the best game I've ever played, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB0 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 It's one of my favorites, too. I just wish it was FINISHED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still trying to make sense out of "The Sith Lords"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
