Both are looking fantastic and can't wait to see first screens and videos of Last Story. Hope both come over to America this year too.

Anyone notice how Xenoblade looks very similar to Gran Pulse in Final Fantasy XIII.

Only Xenosaga: Episode 2 had bad gameplay mechanics. Episode 1 & 3 were great (especially Episode 3's mech battles). The storyline was fantastic and very deep and KOS-MOS >>>>>>>>>>> most jrpg female characters. She was too awesome. It wasn't as good as Xenogears though (but then again, what jrpg is).

The Last Story continues to impress me. I'm crossing my fingers that it somehow comes out this year.

Yeah well I think everyone has his opinion about gameplay mechanics :) But I must say that Xenoblade has a great design an Im really looking forward to it. If they would only announce US und EU release dates for these two games.

The Last Story

the first picture is my wallpaper.

Wouldn't any Xenogears fan?

Monolith said that "in prior games we were focusing on the story, that didn't work lol! so now we're making a game that goes 'back to the roots of the genre' ".

It seems to me like they want to throw away anything that made prior games great, and so, unless i'm proven wrong (by the game having a great plot) I refuse to get my expectations high for this one.

I know it's looked like this for a while, but I don't like the sound of the combat in Xenoblade at all. Oh well.

I liked that TLS seemed to be avoiding many jRPG clichés but this art has a bare chested guy gripping a very heavy looking sword in one hand...... At least he doesn't look like a teenage kid.

Incredibly beautiful, to me.
