YAY! .hack and Xenosaga come out this month

[skace]

Xenosaga isn't a game. It's a movie that pretends to be a game. There were more cut sceens than actual game play and the story is far from finished. Xenosaga is suppose to be a multipart game however they haven't even started on the second part yet. Not good. It was a big disappointment for me since I was a very big Xenogears fan.

If you were a Xenogears fan, you should have expected a lot of cut scenes. The same exact thing occured in Xenogears. Also, Most people previewing the english version of the game have said that the plot / storyline is excellent so perhaps you lost something in your japaneese translating?

Xenogears did not have as many cut sceens as Xenosaga. Not even close.

I doubt it. I played the game with my GF. As I stated before, she speaks japanese so even if I did mistake one or two things in translation, she would have corrected me (part of her scheme to have me move to Japan with her permanently). Now seeing that the US version is already being edited, I could expect the translations to be botched as well. It wouldn't be the first time and if it helps the plot all the better.

Just thought I'd bring a conclusion to this game, it will not be a blackbuster. How do I know? I received a 7.0 on Gamespot. Gamespot is wrong sometimes but they are never wrong on blockbusters and 7.0 is way below what they'd (Greg Kasavin) give a game that they ever wanted to play again. I knew a few people (yeah, they were all anime freaks) who were excited about this game (considering the source of the fanfare, I don't know if that means anything) but it looks like this game will not meet their expectations as being great.

Doh



Anyone know if everything picks up with games 2, 3 and 4?
