In celebration of the revealing of Xenoblade, I decided to make thread about what people thought about the Xenosaga series as a whole to build up hype (I'm gonna do one for Xenogears later). For me, I'd give the series a good 9/10. Here is how I would rate the episodes within the series
Xenosaga: Episode 1 - 9.5, I thought it was fantastic. It had an awesome storyline, great music, introduced some interesting characters and a great combat system. The ending was really awesome as well. The graphic at the time was even better then FFX's graphics. It was really something.
Xenosaga: Episode 2 - 8.0, It had an awesome storyline and awesome graphics though the cutscenes were really long (I love long cutscene but I can see how alot of people can hate it), and the combat system was below average. It was really hard too, I got really pissed off playing it. They also got rid of Mitsuda as the composer.
Xenosaga: Episode 3 - 9.0, It had an awesome storyline, the character designs in this game were the best out of the 3, the combat system was great (especially the gear battles though the regular battles were not as good as they were in Xenosaga: Episode 1), fantastic graphics (I'd say it was on per if not better then Final Fantasy 12's graphics) and it is home to one of the most surprising plot twists I've seen in a jrpg. Shion really pissed me off in this game though with her ignorance, therefor I dropped the rating by 5 points (It would have been a 9.5 if it wasn't for her).
So, how would you rate the Xenosaga series?
