Is this one really any more sci-fi? The original opened with a human army armed with mechs and assault rifles battling against an army of robots, then went on to heavily feature such things as cyborgs, DNA scanning, and highly advanced AI's. Aside from ether, which was often treated like gas anyways, there wasn't too much fantasy elements that I can recall.

Considering the technological background background behind both games, I'd say X is far more advanced than Xenoblade ...

They have spacecrafts that can move faster than the speed of light and can revive complex cryogenically frozen organisms like humans whereas most of the things you mentioned in Xenoblade should be achievable with modern science ...

Those things don't make X "more" sci-fi than fantasy though, they just mean the science in X is more advanced. The original Star Trek series is no more or less sci-fi than Deep Space Nine, for example, notwithstanding replicators, holorooms, faster warp drives, and other technomagic.
