I like it how one character sacrifices herself Jesus-like.... and it leads her friends to discover the secrets of immortality...
also I was shocked by the ending, but perhaps I misinterpreted it. as I saw it the main characters defeat the bad guy by showing him true love, but from the flashbacks the player knows that their love was created by a computer virus in order to replicate a child's need for his mother, and they only did that so that humans could develop the planet.
at the end of the credits it says it's episode 4, but I just took that as a star wars joke. I guess namco didn't.

It just seems like the game could just use one more coat of polish and some expansion of the material towards the end and it would be really great. As it is it really sort of derails right before the climax, I feel like it just has wasted potential. Obviously the creator's concept of the game and mine are vastly different though, if the Xenosaga installments are what Takahashi really wanted. Ugh.

I'm a little anxious to hear more, because frankly the Xenosaga games in their original form are so horribly bad that any editing or redesign can only help. Also, superdeformed 2D character design, practically always a plus in my book.

Man the Christos got nothing on the Anti-Type. You have to check out the Gnostic myths, go to town connecting the dots in that shit.

Also, this is the official history, translated from a Japanese "companion guide" to the game, for super otaku, I guess:

I do associate this game with SDRE's "The Rising Tide," since I would stay up all night after getting home from my bar shift listening to that disc and playing the game.

The best part of Final Fantasy VII is like this: when you finally leave Midgar and the world map appears for the first time. The entirety of Xenogears plays like this! -- allen riley
Well put.
Xenosaga Episode 1 is dire in comparison. I never finished it and haven't bothered with Episode 2. I don't even know if that's out, actually.

When are they going to re-release this thing?
I still have fond memories of this. It's amazing that I finished it. I played through a borrowed copy on a borrowed PS1 from an AF buddy when we were living in the same barracks building (311 TRS J Flight forever, man). If a $29.99 app store version came out I would buy it tomorrow just to try and remember how the hell all the plot points were threaded together. Back in the golden age when every JRPG was stone sci-fi trope soup that ended up being about the Demiurge, and that was okay, this one still did it the best. Except for FFT, but I never did finish that one.
