So, what is Xenogears about? What is the main story line? Is it anything like Final Fantasy? Come on, I need answers!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

An amnesiac martial artist with multiple personalities, who is actually the latest reincarnation of a guy who's been caught up in a cycle of tragedy and loss since the beginning of human civilization on the planet, is paired up by fate with a giant kung-fu robot. Meanwhile, the shadow government of a floating country that manipulates the politics of the surface world while keeping its own presence a secret moves to revive an ancient sentient planet-killing bio-weapon. Hilarity and endless superficial religious symbolism ensue.

It's also rather average and probably not worth the undoubtedly ludicrous price they will ask for it on ebay.

EDIT: Yes, $9.95 US.

I never thought someone could sum up Xenogears incredibly complex and indepth storyline in a single paragraph, but good golly Kawaii accomplished it.

You forgot talking about the significance of Elly though. A-

Anyways, Xenogears is a rpg game not at all similar to Final Fantasy. Your characters can fight in person or in big Gears which are giant robots that usually imitate their riders attacks and abilities. Fighting system is based on combos you can do with limited amounts of selections, which increases as the game goes on.

Great battle system, awesome storyline, and a solid score of music make this one of the best PSX games ever made

Somebody hasn't played Earthbound, most of the FF games, Star Ocean series, Xenosaga series, Chrono Trigger, Pokemon series, Diablo, Arcanum, Fall Out and various other cRPGs/CRPGs that I could probably think of if I could be bothered

No, really, Xenogears is the best RPG ever conceived.

Let's all do gladiator battle and see who's opinion comes out on top. Luckily I have spare strike out action for all.

It's cheap on Amazon right now and a worthy addition to your library so just buy it I say.

Anyone who ranks Pokemon above Xenogears needs to be killed.

Xenogears is one of the best RPGs ever made. Superb storyline, great characters, wonderful battle system and frickin' Mitsuda being the composer.

And no offense to the FF freaks, but Xenogears is a bit higher up on the plateau of RPG classics than FFX-2 or Mystic Quest....
