Ah, the best RPG story I have ever seen. 
 
Pros: 
 
1) Very attractive plot - complicated and interesting.  Actually, there will be 6 parts of Xenosaga, and this is just part 1.  The characters are reasonable, and the scripts...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

I thought that this game was just a cheap rip off of other RPG's I have played.  I am a big fan of the turn-based style, and unfortunately, I played this game after I finished FFX, which totally ruined it for me.  I just felt that it wasn't as clear...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Xenosaga is still the only RPG I have yet picked up for my newly purchased PS2, I have not yet played through Xenogears, but I did play a demo of it that came with another game.  I didn't like that demo at all.  I didn't know until that day that...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Xenosaga is not the best RPG out there, but it's one of my personal favorites.  If you liked Xenogears then it's definitely worth playing though.  The combat system isn't as elegant as Xenogears yet it functions in the same way.  The character...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Xenosaga takes place in space where the human's race is nearly wiped out by the Gnosis (an alien race). How the story gets unlocked as the story progressess is very stunning.  Also the ending of how KOS-MOS is the key to this whole game and how her...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Quite frankly, I found Xenosaga to be extremely disapointing, as well as a huge waste of money.  First, battle system is god awful in comparison to xenogears, its predecessor xenogears (which is one of the best RPG's I've ever played).  Xenosaga...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

I had been looking at this game for a long time when it was on shelves.  When it dropped to $30, I finally decided to buy it.  That was the best $30 I have ever spent.  When I finished the game, I couldn't beleive I had waited so long to buy it. ...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Xenosaga is an epic sci-fi RPG set in the distant future.  It is the prequel to Xenogears on the PSone.  Xenogears was one of my all time favorite games so naturally, when I heard about Xenogsaga I was a very happy man.  The story includes giant...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Xenosaga is a masterpiece of a game that has taken a lot of critisism namely for it's lengthy cutscenes.
