Is Xenogears considered an epic? (Not that Xenosaga trout.)

I'm not sure ya'll actually know what epic means (and if you do, then disregard that).
epic
Final Fantasy Tactics was pretty good. I like Breath Of Fire III a lot, too.
:shoot:
We're not looking for ancient verse narratives here.

Yep, I was right.
There is more than one definition there.
[q=epic]adj 1: very imposing or impressive; surpassing the ordinary[/q]
None-the-less, I've stated my opinion. I liked FFT and BOFIII.
And I am not sure you quite have a grasp upon ze english lan-guuuage! We are using epic as an adjective and not a noun. It was an epic game. Not an epicOriginally Posted by Jolts
Epic game...epic...game. You want a game....that is an epic. Well Metal Gear is about as epic as they come. While never very long at all, they are about nothing other than super humans who are all about kicking ass taking names.
I don't know what you want though. "epic" is a pretty broad term used to describe games as probably 70-90% could be considered epic.
Whoa. Why do people read books? To immerse themselves in a world. Why do people read epic books? To COMPLETELY lose themselves in a world. So is it really such a bad thing to expect a game to do the same? I mean, a game's purpose, at least by this genre, is to tell a story. On the other hand, it's a fair assumption that many have been spoiled by FF7, and 9 for example, that anything less seems inadequate. At any rate, I don't think looking for an "epic" game is unfair.
Many thanks Christmas!

KH wasn't mentioned in your list of epics, now that is one epic game I tell ya.
Oh it is. And if you're in it for all the bells and whistles, it can last a while...
Many thanks Christmas!

I honestly think FFXII will be perhaps one of the best games in the Final Fantasy series. I think it has the potential to be even greater than FFVII or FFVI, which are generally regarded as the best by most.
If you're looking for epic games, as far as plots go, FFT is amazing, if you can follow it without getting confused.
I love Xenosaga, but I don't know if you'll consider it an epic until you've gone through all six of the games, and those will take a while to be released.
Yeah...play Xenogears first, gain a love for it, then move on to Xenosaga and gain a second love. Or hate, possibly. Depends.
The Silent Hill games, IMO, are epic. Or at the very least, they require you to think. A lot. About the story, the riddles...
Many thanks Christmas!

Epic games: Lunar and Lunar 2.
They aren't epics as in 40-50 hours each, but you WILL grow close to all of the characters. And you WILL be sad when they're finally over. Once you get into the games, you're a part of them.
Those games are as close as you'll get to a video game fairytale. I highly suggest you play them.
To hell with Battletoads and Double Dragon.
THIS is the ultimate team.
DRAGON WARRIOR 7
The best selling PS1 game in Japan for a good reason...
An extended narrative poem in elevated or dignified language, celebrating the feats of a legendary or traditional hero.
yea that is how i would define an epic game. A work of art that tells of hero, and is legendary
