This is for anybody who doesn't know yet. www.gamespot.com has recently uploaded a full, direct feed copy of the 8 minute Xenosaga trailer that had recently come out on DVD. Anybody who's intrested in this game, even mindly should check it out. I won't spoil the whole thing, but near the end of it, it shows a ful fight scene between a guy who looks freakishy like citan and one who looks much like ramsus. THey even use ether and whatnot ^_^ The only downfall is the mpeg version is 80 megs and alot of people are DL'ing it. so don't be surprised by a slow transfer rate (it's been almost 8 hours for me and it's not done yet) still it /is/ worth it!!

Well toodles ^_^

*thread renamed, possible spoilers ensue*

I don't think it's Citan. Different style glasses, slightly different hair. And the other guy looks nothing like Ramsus, I think ^^.

Looks very, very nice. Complete with a shot of Zohar rising from the ocean, an elly-lookalike (possibly a younger Shion), and a shot of a possible fei-alike at the very end.

The lipsync is a bit off on the CG, but that'll get cleaned up, I think. Unless they're aiming it at the english market.

Please, please make it not be a crap graphics showoff. Pleeeeease.

Heh, well what I meant is the two guys in the fight resembes Citan and Ramsus, at least in principle it seems ^^ But yeah I noticed the voices were a bit off, but I'm willing to bet that was the DVD playback, it happens sometimes. It amazes me to think that the only pre rendered scenes was Zohar risin and the planet at the end, the reast was realtime. As long as they keep up the story quality (and given who these guys are I think that's entirely possible) then we're looking at a very nice game ^^ I just hope the bring it here *wanders off to play the trailer and paw at his screen*

One word, "Kickass"! This trailer rocks, thanks for spreading that goodness Xeero, it's what I needed after 6 hours of school, erg. Anyways, I coulda sworn that when 'Citan' and 'Ramsus' were fighting, it sounded like 'Ramsus' said "Shoryuken" which is one of Ken from Street Fighters moves isn't it? And I think their info is a little off, they say that Xenosaga is set thousands of years in the future, well, if they mean compared to real life time, maybe, but if they mean thousands of years ahead of Xenogears, they are sadly mistaken, Xenosaga is going to be Episode 1, which takes place about 15000 years if not more, before Xenogears.

They mean thousands of years into our future Ryoji ^^
