    Nah, I know what you're sayin', which is why I mentioned that the two series will probably hold no resemblance to each other. From what I understand, the story was rewritten, and the Xenogears staff was supposedly very limited in how they could develop the game, so they didn't exactly get to make the game they wanted with Xenogears.

    I was just guesstimating in what part of the Xenosaga storyline Xenogears would take place if it were somehow part of the storyline. Or something.

    Xenogears is supposed to be Episode 5, according to that super ultimate perfect collection book or whatever it's called.

    Which is what Namco are somewhat following for the Xenosaga story.

    Don't worry. Xenosaga will suck from now on. They cut all the important stuff from Episode II. I wanted to really get to know the importance of Feb but it was just like 'Okay....ITS OVER!' There were other things that got cut in favor of keeping the cinemas down but over all it was a such a terrible game I have no anticipation for the next game at all. The series can die as far as I am concerned.

    In the Xenogears continuity, Episode II is concerned with the scenario after the crash of the Eldridge, with the main characters being Abel, Cain, Elehayym, and the Gazel Ministry. The Xenosaga continuity doesn't match up at all. They're separate.

    Not to mention that episode III should be taking place 4000 years after the Eldrigde crash with Kim whats his face(they never really got too much into that one). Episode III is so going to be so far away from that.

    I've also heard that episode II was about Abel making contact with the Zohar which can easily be compared to episode II but what I heard might be wrong. I know Elehayym is Elly or mother Sophias original incarnation or something like that. Cain and the Gazel industry I dont know much about.

    The theory is that Xenosaga is a retelling of Xenogears. Not a remake.

    They are doing a completely ass-tastic job of it then. This isn't a re-telling but a retooling of the story. They have changed damn near everything and continue to do so. It in no way really resembles the story line of Xenogears or its other episodes. Could Xenosaga EVENTUALLY get far enough in its story to do so? Yeah but I don't think it will last that long at the rate it is going. It did okay its first time and pretty much bombed the second time(give the budget it had). If third time doesn't at least match episode II sales you may only see one more episode just to wrap it up.

    The whole situation is screwed up.
