[PS2] Xenosaga III: Also Sprach Zarathustra

http://www.famitsu.com/sp/xeno3/

Canaan is apparently playable now as well =o

Has anyone seen Chaos in battle at all? If not perhaps he is an npc in this game =O (that would be unfortunate =/).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I guess it's not out of possibilty that they just increased the number of playable characters.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Newest trailer has been released.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

If they have the time to lounge on a beach in this episode while the universe is going to pot I would laugh.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Spoiler:

Here's the short version:

Well Negrido is good, but we learn that Yeriev(the father guy of the urtvs) has locked his personality inside Negrido. Thus, Negrido => Yeriev at the end of XSII and we do not know yet if Yeriev is acting to aid shion and pals.

Albedo is Jr's other half and friend, but he's still messed up and will still be fighting on the side of the "circle of zarathustra" = cloaked guys + whiehelm

(forgive my spelling XD)

FELIPE NO

This in unconfirmed whether the following informaiton is a hoax or not.

Some snooping was done on the XenoIII demo CD and some sploilerific material was found. Here's the post about some of the material:

Spoiler:

All thanx to Kouli from gamefaqs who readed the demo database and revealed all these!

WARNING!!!!!! the following post contains MAJOR spoilers of the Xenosaga mysteries (e.g. chaos, nephilim)so if you don't want to ruin the fun DON'T READ IT!!
However I know spoilers are as sweet as a deal with the devil (Albedo said that xD) so it's up to you.

1. Heinlein IS Wilhelm
2. The cut-scene with little Kevin and his mother is taken place in Michtam. Her mother is one of the people of Zohar.
3. chaos, exists when the universe was born, with the power of the Anima to form the body with a human's shape and consciousness, holds the power of the dimensional failsafe of the universe. Release of the failsafe is basically annihilation, so back in those times, the power was divided by another existence, Maria the Animus. That's the basic jist of it. When he regains his power, he will make a dimensional shift to LJ/Earth.
4. KOS MOS will be awakened to be Maria, when she defeats Telos. But, some special changes with Maria's memories, yes, she is Maria, but she's no the real Maria, a new personality was created. The DataBase suggested Sakura and MOMO as example.
5. Just above the E.S, they will explain back to chaos/Anima, and Maria/Animus. E.S is basically half of chaos and when Maria divided that power for chaos, her half of the Anima was spreaded out through the UMN. And a quick recap of the E.S:

Asher, chaos and Jr
Issachar, Pellegri
Gad, Richard
Simeon, Albedo (note here, White Testament got a different body but it's the same as Simeon)
Zebulun, Ziggy and Momo
Dan, Voyager
Dinah, KOS MOS
Naphatali, Virgil
Judah, Kevin
Joseph, Hermann
Ruben, Jin
Levi, Margulis

For other potential cool mech, there are:

Omega Id, Omega Universitas, Omega Metempsychosis, Omega Res Novae, Erde Kaiser, Erde Kaiser Alpha, Erde Kaiser Fury...etc

6. Nephilim and Abel, hmph, I see words on Nephilim which is a human born in LJ/Earth. Basically, that Grimore programmer and Vector, they were doing this Lemegeton program, which is control the Zohar. When the test fails, Nephilim was the first one to disappear, so yeah, back in all those time, she was technically the first to disappear. And the odd thing is, when Nephilim disappears, Abel shows up. Which seems to be they can't co-exist or they have the 'because then therefore' effect going on.

Abel, he is the supposed pilot of Omega and uses the Zohar as main energy source. He's got the autism state going on, so normal communication is impossible. So, they were using the UMN support system to try to communicate with him. His real identity is to act as the side sustance of the lowend domain's observation terminal of, UDO. You can say that UDO picked Abel as a physical form. Yuriev will try to use Abel to obtain Omega, as the weapon to defy God. Abel's conscious side is basically the Ark itself. I'll rewrite this bit tomorrow, all that high end and lowend stuff of UDO is fuzzy.

As for Maria no Miko, maiden of Maria or daughter of Maria, whatever you want, both work with the context. That's Shion's early incarnation.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Has anyone heard anymore about the spoiler leak on the demo cd?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The year between episode II and III is being told at the following site:

http://www.xenosaga.jp/xenosaga3/download/missing.html

Here's the address for the current english translations

http://www.labyrinthos.org/jinx/changelog.html

There's nowhere I can't reach.

http://www.xenosaga.jp/xenosaga3/dow...chapter06.html

GOD FINALLY, someone slapped some sence into Shion's endless crying rampage.

Jin +1 , Shion -20325393950

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Spoiler:

I started to believed that, as was mentioned above, that Xenosaga and Xenogears were never designed to be part of the same story, but the ending of xenosaga III really screws things up.

To many dialogues ended with the hope that "oh, we will find/see each other again!". While I could just take this as filler for a happy ending, it's desturbingly open ended. Add to this the fact that a large part of Shion's gang is still around and looking for Earth AND Kos-Mos/Chaos still exist. While the plot did wrap up, there are many questions left to be answered.

These questions are obviously left there to be a spark point for any future iteration of the mythos of Xenosaga to be continued. But I wish they had just ended everything! That would have been the final stake in the coffin of all the Xenosaga references being more then Fanservice!

God, now we can't say anything at all because there is more to be told. >_<

Yes, just go and read the transcripts and summaries of Pied Piper. Just that little bit of backstory goes a long way in Episode III ( the same goes for Xenosaga: The Missing Year transcripts ).

I was speaking idiomatically.

Simple question on the Xenogears tie-ins:

Spoiler:

If they didn't intend Xenosaga to be a prequel to xenogears, then why the bloody hell did they leave the story line at the end of Episode III so friggen open ended >_<.

Even if the intention wasn't there, you could write any thing you wanted to after Episode III to make it seem like the games were connected =/

If the game really was ment to be it's own story, why does it leave such a gapping hole at the end of it?

(ok so I repeated my question a few times...)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
