Actually, Xenosaga III was the highest selling new release in Japan. I don't know the exact details, but it beat out all the other best sellers in the first week of sales as opposed to theirs.

^ I can imagine that! it's not too suprising Quote: Well, I don't think Ep. 1 did amazing either but I couldn't be sure. If it didn't that was probably do the ridicously long cut scenes. Hahaha! Final Fantasy Killer... SOMETHING needs to kill off Final Fantasy, but sadly it isn't Xenosaga. 1) Well, i like eppy 1, but i supposed liking it doesn't have much to do with it's sales. since it was the first, and all. FFKiller? sad i like FF! not as much as Xeno... but...

xD I dunno, FF games just seem to have lost their appeal. But then again, I haven't played 12 yet.
And that's great that Xeno III sold so well already.

did you see the trailer on Youtube for FFXIII? I can't believe they're already making about 3 different FFXIII's... or, two and some other ff game besides FFXII. that's BAD, at least make them in order! Well, i suppose they are... BUT STILL... how can they already be making it?

Ziggurat the Eighth xD I dunno, FF games just seem to have lost their appeal. But then again, I haven't played 12 yet. And that's great that Xeno III sold so well already. I still like FF games, but I'm more a fan of the oldschool storylines that...weren't retarded?...like FF8, FF9, and FF5 and 6. Those were the best ones, in my opinion. I miss the world map in 3D, and actual chocobo minigames that don't suck. FFX sucked butt, FFX-2 was retarded, and FFXII looks really, really dumb to me. The characters all look alike, lately. They're all thin pretty girls with blonde/brown hair and thin pretty boys who look like girls. It's getting really old to me. FFXIII looks good, however. Maybe we'll actually get a strong female lead who isn't driven by her desire for a guy.

Yeah, the older FF games were a lot more fulfilling. 3nodding FF6 was so-so, FF:Tactics was pretty damn sweet, FF8 was okay, FF9 was fine, but FF7 rose above most in my standards. It had a really gripping, yet morbid, storyline much like Xenosaga's. ...Well, Xenosaga's is a bit darker...
To get to the point, I like Xenosaga more than FF and wish that it were more than just a trilogy.

I loved the storyline in 8 to begin with, but then it became to lovey-dovey for me. Tactics....was tactics. sweatdrop I think my favorite (at the moment) is 9, just because it's so light-hearted. Me too. gonk

Kapitein Kanker Ziggurat the Eighth xD I dunno, FF games just seem to have lost their appeal. But then again, I haven't played 12 yet. And that's great that Xeno III sold so well already.

They're all thin pretty girls with blonde/brown hair and thin pretty boys who look like girls. It's getting really old to me. FFXIII looks good, however. Maybe we'll actually get a strong female lead who isn't driven by her desire for a guy. Yep. Also, I think the point about FFXIII is exactly the reason why I got tired of the FF series. They just seem so similar, especially when they seem to feel the need to keep pairing up the lead male and female. Which is fine at first, but. It gets really repetitive after a while. It might be less tiresome if they ended up liking one of the side characters (or even villains? NPCs?) instead. MAKE IT A BIT DIFFERENT, you know? In fact, it would be pretty funny if the main character was interested in a shop NPC. xD But. FFXIII is looking pretty good. And a strong female lead would be a very welcome change in the series. They really have been over doing the whole frail female lead thing. Mystery~S~C Xenosaga will always be better. whee heart Although Shion seems slightly weakish too. domokun But at least she has her awesome other half. And she seems to be growing as a character. Maybe? She's also not stuck in a romance story (you could point out KOSy I guess, although I always felt Shion thought of KOS-MOS as a child/daughter because of the way she talks to her).

i don't support that many of the Xeno pairings. unless it's like Fei and Elly, or Shion and Kevin. Shion Allen isn't that far fetched, but we'll have to see, i doubt they'll make it that way in III.
oh, in XIII they're pairing them again? Ugh.... these people need to break tradition.
And i usually count Shion as a slight miscalculation on the Xeno's side.

No, no. I wasn't including XIII. If you read Kanker's last line. xD;
I don't really support Shion and Kevin, mainly because I still need to play xeno3 to find out the whole story behind them. But also, Kevin is dead. D:
Shion Allen seems a leetle bit mean. I dunno, I just think Allen should find someone who isn't so dismissive of him?

I don't support Shion Allen just because he's a whiny-voiced blubbermouth with nothing better to do than pout about somebody who obviously isn't interested in him. Also, I don't really see any of the pairings in Xenosaga except the Jr./MOMO one. Am I the only one? gonk

rockmanx also ask them to release Namco X Capcom here in the USA. Namco X Capcom wouldn't be coming to the states, because of copyrights and all that fluff...

I don't support Jr/MOMO because of Sakura... they ruined MOMO's Relationship with Rubedo when they did that.
now- Shion & Allen would've been cool if Kevin wasn't still in love with her. I mean, who do you THINK she'd choose out of those two? Hell, I'd choose Kevin.
Allen is okay- it's just that Shion makes him seem like wuss, if she didn't exist he'd probably be a lot stronger, like it seemed he was at the beginning of Episode one. {or... maybe that was just me}
Jr/Sakura MAYBE Juri/Juan {however you spell his name} Shion/Kevin are all okay pairings to me... but..... even those are...

They did it with Capcom VS SNK and Capcom Vs Marvel. I would get the import but I can't read Japanese nor does my system play the Japanese disc.
