I never got to play Xenogears, but I really liked Xenosaga. I just wish there was more gameplay involved. lol

I love the Xeno games. I still have my original copy of Xenogears and Xenosaga's 1-3. Can't wait for the new Xenoblade that's in the works!

Xenogears is one of my all time favorite games. Didn't like Xenosaga however.

The upcoming game Xenoblade looks interesting and will try to keep my eye on it.

I have yet to play Xenogears, but I do own it. I've played and completed all three Xenosaga games, they were awesome.

Xenogears was a favorite at the time. Would love a PSN release, of course that could kill my memories of it.

Xenosaga, I put in about 40 hrs and never finished, I grew really tired of all the cinema, not that Xenogears didn't have plenty of it's own but that was a different era. I actually like that cut scenes are being minimized or phased out altogether.

I haven't played Xenogears yet, but I've played a bit of Xenosaga and thought it was pretty good. Maybe a but too much video, but the story was good enough to watch.

This, I could never finish the Xenosaga series because I got tired of so many cutscenes and little gameplay.

LOVE Xenogears.

HATE Xenosaga. I wanted, I really wanted to love it, but it's a beyond-epic fail.

So far there's not been much releases on it other than this website with a "teaser", if that's what you want to call it, but you can find it HERE

At the bottom of the page, it says " 2010 Spring Sale Schedule" / Platform: Wii / Genre: RPG and it's being made by Monolithsoft

My dad says they are the best JRPG's out there. I can't agree entirely but I think they are incredible games and an incredible piece of story telling. It may be the best RPG in America that no one has heard of.

I originally played xenosaga but never finished it... I just havent been able to bring myself to finish it and the anime style and voice actors kinda bother me.. I mean I like some anime like Trigun, Cowboy bebop, hell i'd watch Full Metal if I could start from the beginning.... But damn this is like jpop anime that I hate...

Xenogears however, I'm playing right now (almost finished) and wow.. What a classic. I cant believe I missed it.

Spring 2010? You'd think if it was coming out that soon that would be a little more to that website, oh well. Looks like I'm gettin' a Wii : )

I know, right? Though to be fair, I've seen many game's websites never be updated, but information is still streaming out from other sources. For example, Deus Ex 3. Practically nothing on the website, but information was coming from a Czech website. Kind of makes you go "what?"

Xenogears, yes. I never really got into Xenosaga, though. I'm still waiting for Xenogears to get released on the Playstation Store outside of Japan.

I've only played Xenogears and I still own the same copy from when it came out. Great game for sure, one of my favorites. I may try out the Xenosaga games someday.

I stopped about 20 hours into Xenogears, and I can't bring up the courage to start playing again :\ Kind of a dead point.

Honestly, I don't think I could stomach Xenogears anymore, despite having played through the whole game the first time. The slow pacing combined with the high random encounters is a brutal combo.

I don't care for Xenosaga, either. It's a pretentious game, and combat was really slow. If it had random encounters, it would have been unbearable.

I managed to grab a copy of Xenogears recently and playing through it for the very first time. It definitely seems to have a lot of cliche's running about but at the same time, the story just seems to draw you in. I can't comment about the graphics but a lot of what I saw from the ingame cut-scenes seem far beyond what I would've expected from a RPG at the time. I'm still quite early in the game but I'm looking forward to the rest.

Xenosaga, I've had for a while. I have not managed to finish it, the story seems interesting and I would love to be able to get through it, but the regular encounters in the game seem to take so much out of my party that reaching the next boss feels like such a chore. I haven't done any grinding in the game at all though, so that could possibly be one reason. It's also getting a lot harder to find PS2 games now as well, if I finish the first Xenosaga, I'm going to have a hard time finding the second two...so I guess Xenosaga is just going to end up remaining unplayed until they become avaliable again.

I loved Xenogears and the Xenosaga series. Xenogears often gets cut down for it's massive number of cutscenes, but I actually enjoyed that storyline.
