I wonder who that comment is aimed at......

Any ways.. Monilithsoft is a great company. I am a big fan of all their games and now that it is a Nintendo owned company I hope to see much more from them on all Nin systems... Xenoblade looks to have great story/gameplay/graphics/controls, i am sure it will be only a short time before it gets a US release... Say around September 11th...

Yeah, it wouldn't take much to shift it to NA. Heck, doing a straight JP - NA translation is quicker than the EU one, as we have about 5 different languages they have to translate to.

I have EU envy right now. The game looks awesome.

It is currently being release in JP, EU, and AUS.

I hope that Xenoblade being released is also a good sign the other games will be released as well.

IMO you get more of your moneys worth out of a 40-80 RPG than you do any other type of game for the same price.

I was reading a thing about it yesterday in game informer. They said it is more or less a altered experience of the famed xenosaga series on PS2... which I loved . Ya, game informer expects a US release for it, The Last Story(by FF creator Hironobu Sakaguchi), and Pandora's Tower(by ganbarion).

Though it has the name (Xeno) in it it actually has no relations what so ever to Xenogears or Xenosaga. Not sure what Game Informer was talking about.

In fact the game was renamed from Monado: Beginning of the World to Xenoblade to honor Tetsuya Takahashi. Who worked on Xenogears/Saga and Mondao.

So even though the name pays homage to the Xeno series it is not related or part of it.

I love how you just assume that it's Capcom due to the douchebaggery of it all.

Wtf is Xenoblade?

This looks very good, judging by reviews I have seen. I haven't really enjoyed a traditional RPG for years, but might well try this out.

This game is AMAZING!

I've been looking into some previews and trailers and the graphics and content (storyline <3) looked very nice.
Gameplay (I mean the fighting with this) however seemed a bit awkward, could you enlighten me about that, hiccup?

I might get dis soon, but to lazy to drive to get it muahahhaaha

The fighting style is real time. From the normal game screen, you press R (CC Controls, btw) to select your target. YOu can then choose to either initiate combat with A or press left/right on the d-pad to choose an attack to initiate combat through.

In combat, you only control one character. They do a basic attack over time, unless you choose an Art using left/right and then pressing a. Blocking and Dodging occurs naturally, so far. Arts have cooldown times, and each character has a strong attack they can only use after connecting with a set number of basic attacks.

I think I'm gonna get this, read some reviews whuch were all positive .

The battle system seems to be based off the one used in Xenogears. Interesting. How does the game look Hic?

The game is BEAUTIFUL. No other word for it. Where I am just now I can see the entirety of the starting area.

Sounds great ;_;!

I also hope they bring Last Story(made by FF creator) over... I like the looks of it too...

Well, EU already has Last Story scheduled for next year xD

Just picked the game up today.
Despite the laughs I had at the voice acting previously :P

I haven't played it yet but will probably share some opinions on it later on.
