I have the 2nd one but haven't started it yet (still working on Tales of Symphonia). How has your experience been with it thus far?
I'm very aware of others people's mixed responses with it....

 

[DrForester]

no $200 Ultra-Super-Duper Delux Edition with an even WORSE looking Kos Mos Figure?

The battles are very glitchy(many times the battle music doesnt even begin at start of battles) but not bad once you learn how to Boost/Stock. Seems to be an uneven balance with storyline and dungeon crawlings(you might get some 10 minute long cutscene and then end up in a longgggggg dungeon area). I really like the plot(tho it has some bad voice acting, particularly with Chaos). Overall, some serious problems with the battle system incld. Mechs(no upgrading arms parts, etc.) and too much/little story at various points. A ton of sidequests if you into that.....

Somehow I amazingly suffered through the Ep.1, but I haven't the heart/will to actually go through Ep.2, but I would like to see what happens....sorta...

[Dead]

The terror of MOK-KOS can never be duplicated.

Look where his hand is!

 

[Duderz]

Oh dear.

 

[B.K.]

I heard there's supposedly going to be a new trailer this week too.

 

[Duderz]

That'd be nice.

B.K., where do you get all your Xeno. info? You sure know your stuff when it comes to these games.

 

[B.K.]

Various places. Mostly from 2ch.

This game could be this:

Episode I was great, Episode II was... tolerable and playable, despite the same-veined sword-swinging, gravity-defying nonsense that made me hate most of the cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes so much on the cube.

Let's hope Ep III makes a return to the roots... give us lots of crazy, meandering cutscenes and an epic quest. I like to see a developer give us what *he* wants to see rather than what he thinks we want to see!

e.g., let's hope there's less sword-fighting frog-hopping bullshit as in Ep II and more crazy-sad suicide-implicating flashbacks with Ziggy ala Ep I.

Also, let's see some *real piano* or orchestral, or heck, some rock music in the next one . That elevator techno crap from Ep II just about made me sick, just like Digital Devil Saga 2's soul-sapping Michael-Bolton-esque techno-squid yuck.
