I blind bought it way back in the day. I knew virtually nothing about it other than reading one review (in a magazine!) that made it sound amazing. It ended up being one of my all-time favorites.

I like the game well enough, but the second disc is a slog and the gear battles are a chore.

Second greatest game I have ever played. Still the best story I have ever seen in any medium ever.

And I'm being serious about that last sentence.

I started a stream of it last night. It was my first stream of any game ever. If you are ever bored, go watch it. I will start another stream of it later on today:

Great game, amazing soundtrack. I've only played Xenosaga Pt. 1 besides it, though.

Xenogears was good, yeah.

Should have been fantastic but the Gear combat was abysmal.

FF8 was trash so I cannot agree with this.

The only good thing that came from FF8 was Triple Triad.

trivia: FFVII had a small reference on Xenogears, although it was mistranslated into Zenogias. PC version fixed the translation.

Xenogears and Xenosaga both have much better story telling and characters than Blade, but Blade has slightly better combat than Saga with Gears being the worst. Of the ones I have played I would rank them all around:

Xenosaga ep 1 > Xenogears > Xenosaga ep 3 > Xenoblade >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Xenosaga ep2 (possibly my most dissapointing game of all time)

Havent played Blade X or Blade 2 (yet)

Only one I've played is Gears so I don't really know for sure but my impression was that they were loosely tied in concept but unrelated in continuity.

This, I would so wish a remaster/actual remake of this game rather than FF7.

ff8 is fine
it goes off the rails at its third disk though and never recovers
but its first 2 disks are solid.

i mean disk 2 has the stupid plot twist everyone hates and remembers most about the game
but you dont have time to process how bad it is until disk 3 because immediately after the twist the garden battle starts and that is one of the best parts of the game

I find Xenogears to be a good game, but not as good as people say. A large part of that is because of disc 2. I've always preferred Xenosaga personally, even though those games are a big mess as well.

the only one thats really a big mess is the second one
episode 1 and 3 are solid.

i just view them as one long game with a bad middle part

Does anybody remember that "never buy a bad game again" gamefly commercial where a bunch of people are shown doing the most ridiculous freakouts imaginable?

These are the people I picture when I see FF8 bashing on the internet. Yes that one scene was dumb. It was also 10 minutes of an otherwise great 30 hour game.
