It's not good. It's great.

Possibly my favorite JRPG outside of SaGa Frontier. SaGa is mainly due to me loving the battle system.

Also just my opinion, but Xenogears OST blows away FFVII OST. Anytime the track "Flight" plays, man that would get me pumped. Youtube it if you haven't heard it.

I really need to play this game again.

It is also much greater in terms of story and character development. To think of what that game could have been if it hadn't been rushed. The fact that the 2nd disc was rushed and is absolutely apparent, yet still manages to still be such a fantastic title is a testament to how wonderful of a game it truly is.

If any JRPG needs a remake, it is Xenogears.

Damn you all... now I am upset that I sold my black label Xenogears years ago and almost making me want to repurchase it, but I think I will instead just pick up a digital copy to play on my Vita.

Damn it.. Xenogears is not available on European PSN.. And I really want to give the game a try! :/

Create a US PSN account and buy a $10PSN card.

If you have a PSP, there is an easy way. You can probably get a used one for very cheap nowadays. Its not the plausible method, but the game was never released in europe,and probably never will, so we have to do what we must. To think that i would never have enjoyed Chrono cross and Xenogears if not for those roundabout ways... its criminal of square.

You can also do what the guy above me said, but having different accounts on the Vita is hell and not practical at all. If you have a PS3 its manageable though. The game is gonna look awful on today's big screens though.

As my username attests too im a super fan of xenogears.  However i dont deny the cultural impact that FF7 had and what it meant to bringing jrpg's into the mainstream, as well as the fact that unfortuately do too budget/content of xenogears it would never get its fair amount of credit.  In the end though for me personly when it comes down to it i will take xenogears every time :)

Hmm, thanks for the idea. I will give it a try!
