And the improvements keep rolling in, did anyone notice how the major pop ins were gone, even from what we seen in the E3 video. Beyond that, I was wondering how dense areas would be with living things. All the videos prior had a pretty good amount of monsters/aliens/humans, but this! Holy Crap! Game pad functionality looks like it will have some decent use. I also like the new title design.

Oh, and I guess we can take all that "visual downgrade" crap and throw it out the window. This looks like the best in game graphics video to date. Bring on the Year Of Xenoblade!

Yeah I noticed the pop-ins having been ironed out compared to E3, plus the lighting and scene density seems to have been improved slightly.

And Monolith Soft have stated they weren't even pushing themselves with this title. 

Take from an interview with Edge

“Xenoblade Chronicles X is the first HD project for Monolith Soft, so instead of setting a number of hard-to-achieve targets, we are working on steadily building up key skills. Our goal with this game is first to lay the groundwork for [our] HD game development, so as to not overreach ourselves and cause problems,” Takahashi discussed with EDGE."

Other devs need to step their game up, Monolith Soft is making you look like absolute garbage when looking at Wii U development.

Other developers used little to no effort on Wii U ports.

At first I was ok with the city but then I saw him leaping through peoples backyards... is this GTA now??
It just seems so out of place. This trailer has left me less intrested in XCX, just hoping XBC 3D releases in time for me to finish it before XCX releases

anyone has the link or the video for the high quality one? I need to download or grab it from flash file, because my Internet is suck when streaming.

"Targeted" for 2015? I'm beginning to think this is a 2016 game...

I've been saying for a while that I'm not confident pinning down this, Zelda, or Starfox for 2015.

Nintendo should just get their name legally changed to "Nintendelay" and be done with it.

Nah, game is guaranteed to launch in 2015 for Japan at this point. The question is simply on how fast or slow the full translation and localization ends up being.

Dang localization. It mays you grateful how serious GameFreak tries to get their game localized not only in the US, but in Europe and Korea and ready for an almost worldwide release. But I guess Pokemon games have a simple story and way less NPCs than X will have.

But you think a game based in a US city would mean the game will come out in Japan and US in similar time frame.

Here's a video that starts the gameplay on time.

If the Q2 release in Japan is confirmed, then yeah, I'd say it has about an 80% shot at us getting to play it in English next year.
